Sunreach (Skyward, #2.1)Sunreach by Brandon Sanderson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sunreach is the first of three novellas that take place between the main books in the Skyward series, following the secondary characters while Spensa is off having her central plot adventures.

I really loved that I got to get to know these characters better, though I wasn't 100% sold on the plot of this one. FM is the main narrative character in the story and, while I really liked her, I had some trouble connecting with her. Still, we gain some valuable insight into the relationships between characters, and a *very important plot point* that will be integral to the main story once Spensa comes back, but I'm not going to spoil it here.

With all the depth and world building I've come to expect from any of Sanderson's books, this novella was a welcome addition to the Skyward series.
