What books?

OP

(Anonymous) 2021-12-06 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
For an example of an otherwise really great book: Small Favors by Erin A. Craig.
To be clear, that book is great. Her book before this (House of Salt and Sorrows) was great. I look forward to reading her next book (that she has codenamed "Molly you in Danger Girl"). But Small Favors for all its excellence ends three chapters early, and as someone who knows several authors trying to break into mainstream YA and having a ton of difficulty with the impositions put on their writing, I cannot understand how Craig's editor wasn't like: no. You can't end it there, you've been posing this question the whole book and having the reader decide for themselves is a cop out. It's not some philosophical query about magical properties, it's literally that something has happened to very important characters, it's been tapped constantly throughout the book, you can't just not say what happened to them. And you know this is a stand alone!
