The House of Sky and Breath is the second book of Sarah J. Maas’s Crescent City fantasy series. I previously read this book in February 2024 and I’m really enjoying listening to the GraphicAudio version of the series. GraphicAudio has a full cast and sound effects and is billed as “a movie in your mind.” It most definitely lives up to that. 

I do enjoy the full cast and sound effect and think it’s a fun way to listen. That being said, I feel like the action of this story really doesn’t get going until the last half of the book. So, I’m excited for Part 2 to finish this book off. I felt like this dragged a bit for me, especially towards the end.
