[Review] Lightlark by Alex Aster

What a surprisingly fantastic book. Once I got into it I blew through it, unable to put it down. The characters are strong, yet vulnerable. The plot is full of intrigue and mystery. The world building is rich and enthralling. And the main character's suitors are both equally captivating—dark and brooding and thoroughly mysterious. I loved how the slow burn romance continued to tease and tantalize throughout.

Really, this was a great read. Lots of magic, unique characters, suspense, and romance all wrapped up in an urgent quest for survival. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

5 stars
