The Starlight Heir by Amalie Howard
4.0
when I read the synopsis for this book, I was IMMEDIATELY intrigued. A chosen one with star magic?? a handsome bastard prince?? an immortal shadow god? SIGN ME UP. and let me tell you it DID NOT DISAPPOINT.
I DEVOURED this book. it grabbed and held my attention the entire way through. It was fast paced so I never felt bored, but the pace is also one of my only critiques because I wish thereād been more time for the characters and plot to develop. even still, the main characters were quick-witted, funny, and had amazing banter and chemistry (though I will say, some of the dialogue felt a bit cringe - a very minor issue but part of why this is only 4 stars for me).
the world building was effective, the magic and mythology felt unique and refreshing, and I simply NEED the next book because the POVs from a *certain someone* have left me with a million questions.
PLEASE put this on your TBR and pick it up on Jan 7, 2025.
And thank you to NetGalley, Avon and Harper Voyage for the ARC!!
