A Legacy of Stars

At first when reading this book I thought it was going to be very similar to The Serpent and The Wings of Night, but I was so wrong. Although very similar themes The Legacy of Stars is unmatched in its unique character development and teachings. I adore how our female main character sets boundaries all throughout the book and never waivers or disrespects herself by breaking them. This is quite unusual for female characters and I think it's a bit iconic and it definitely sets her up as a good role model for girls and women. The romance of this story completely overtook me, all I wanted was for it to work out and every time it took a dip or didn't work out it actually hurt my soul. There is a strong underlying terror element from  the Sons of Endros which kept the pacing and plot moving along nicely. I would have liked to see what happened to Endros at the end, he was tucked away nicely to end his plot line, but I just wanted a bit more from it. I am very sad that I read the ARC so quickly, I wanted to get lost with Stella forever. It is definitely one of my top books for this year. Thank you to The Realm Studios for the ARC.
