The Sound of Stars by Alechia Dow
5.0
I WOULD GIVE THIS BOOK ALL THE STARS IN THIS UNIVERSE ✨
"But they don't know that rebels are made in the worst of circumstances, and even death can't stop the. Us."
This is my first 5 star read of the year and I'm going to go ahead and say that it will have a spot in my top 10 reads of the year as well. I can't even begin to describe how enamoured I am with The Sound of Stars! I have a complete review up on my blog but here's a short summary of my thoughts.
I absolutely love every scene in this freaking book. The Sound of Stars had a plot that kept me guessing every single event that would occur. The plot twist towards the end is one that I didn’t expect although I did predict a very tiny portion of it, I was pleasantly surprised. I had a major crisis when I was left only with 100 pages. I was dreading the end of the book because I simply didn’t want to let go of such a beautiful story.
"If music is a story, it comes alive with love. The more love it has, the more likely the story will never end."
Oh and I must talk about some of the amazing themes incorporated into the book, especially consent. This book shows us that consent matters in every way. There are so many incredible book and song references scattered around the book! At several points, I just squealed at the pop culture references. I think the biggest compliment I can give The Sound of Stars in terms of writing is that I felt I was inside the book. The rest of the world just didn't exist. Many times sci-fi and fantasy novels tend to confuse me with the world-building and information dumps, but Alechia Dow is a master.

I WAS GIVEN AN E-COPY OF THIS BOOK BY THE AUTHOR AND THE FFBC TOURS BUT THIS DOESN’T INFLUENCE MY VIEWS AND OPINIONS IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER. I’M VERY GRATEFUL TO HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS TOUR. THANK YOU FFBC TOURS AND ALECHIA DOW!
