Today I'm reviewing Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry—a Romantasy that delivered solid characterization, a compelling plot, and strong worldbuilding… but fell short where it mattered most: the romance.While the characters are well-drawn and the pacing kept me turning pages, the emotional spark between the leads never fully landed for me. Still, there's plenty here for fans of fantasy with romantic elements, especially if you're drawn to layered plots and well-developed protagonists.Tune in for a full breakdown of what worked, what didn't, and whether this Romantasy deserves a spot on your TBR.✨ Don't forget to follow for more honest book reviews across YA, fantasy, and romantasy—only on Spotify.#ShieldOfSparrows #DevneyPerry #Romantasy #FantasyRomance #BookReviewPodcast #SpotifyPodcasts #FantasyReads #YABooksSupport Cyn's Workshop & Keep the Reviews Coming:Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cynsworkshop⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/cynsworkshopPatreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/cynsworkshop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Bookish Candles: https://cynsworkshopcandles.etsy.com⁠⁠⁠Donate via PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=ZLYMTKFEM5HR8⁠⁠⁠
