Note: This review is of both “Vellum” and “Ink”, books one and two of the Book of All Hours respectively. However, I only had time to reread Vellum in preparation for the review, so the focus will be on Vellum. The title of the duology is “The Book of All Hours” and I feel that, spiritually, Vellum & Ink are a single novel, and were probably intended as such but split for commercial reasons. Thus I sometimes call it a book in the singular.
I stumbled in via r/ssc and enjoyed reading this. I will probably not pick up the book, but thank you for the review. ♡
