Welcome to Litsy!

This was not as good as the first book, it really dragged in some places and rushed through other parts way too fast.
A war, an escape, more war, demons, gods, and love all mash together in a story that follows a tailor who must decide what she will sacrifice to save her country, while never examining if her country is worth saving.
2/5 stars, I‘m glad I know how the story ends, but I was not impressed and do not recommend.

I loved Maia but at the same time I was frustrated because characters overall felt a bit flat. There was so much potential but I just felt how it wasn't really used.

Maia had to deal with hard situations and there was a threat present all the time. I was a bit disappointed how those situations ended, those scenes felt a bit anti-climatic.

I really loved the ending! It was beautiful.

Another googling and the cover attracted me

I‘m really not a high fantasy reader, but every so often I try again because I just love this cover art style! #dusk #OminousOctober #Scarathlon2022 #TeamMonsterMash @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs @StayCurious

I am bailing on this for now. I may come back and change my mind. There is just too much going on at the same time and it is not holding my attention.

This certainly made a good ending for the duology. I love how Maia fully came into her own here (that's real character development right there), and the Six Crimson Cranes references. The author took inspiration from several famous Chinese legends, and really made it her own in this world, and I loved that about this series too.

I don't regret sticking with this duology to the end at all.

Thank you so much @Littlewolf1 & @Roary47 for the book (I just finished book 1 of this series so perfect) & the gorgeous bookmark. Thank you for the fun challenges each month with #Roaringwolf!

I enjoyed book one, but the end of the duology was so much better. Book 2 continues were book 1 leaves off and is adventure full to hep save Maia from the curse of book 1. The author did a great job telling the story and I honesty wish there was more to the duology.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really love the magic scissors in this and just how well done the magic is done in this book. I loved the romance. The war parts were great. I did feel like that this wasn‘t as amazing as Spin the Dawn.

The second book in the Blood of Stars Duo - very satisfying as Maia tries to save her country & her soul.

5/5 for the last in this duology! This was such a great ending to this duology. The whole book was action packed. Maia and Edam were so awesome. I was happy to see Maia‘s father and brother too. I would definitely recommend this book.

Don‘t y‘all hate starting a brand new series and forgetting what‘s going on before the next book comes out? 🙃

I know I liked #SpinTheDawn because I rated it 4 stars on goodreads, but now that my library hold of #UnravelTheDusk has arrived on my kindle I‘m a little lost 😂

I‘m really enjoying it so far, I guess I‘ve just read too many books in between! Perhaps it‘s time to go google some spoilers of the first book 💕

Omg how I love this series of spin the dawn the fight for Maia dark and light magic was amazing written. And Edan omg I love the enchanter This book is a absolute pick.

Wonderful second half of the two-book... series? This book, like it‘s predecessor, does not ever seem to go where I think it will. So fun to read! 10/10

#88 of my year. This is book 2 and I can‘t wait to see how pissed Edan is going to be 😆 I‘ve missed these characters so much. Listening to My Future by Billie Eilish 🌻

Both covers are ❤️💙❤️💙. Maia and Edan are a satisfying fantasy and love story.

I really love Maia and her strong personality. Elizabeth Lim‘s writing is gorgeous... very lush and descriptive. I thought this was the perfect follow up to Spin the Dawn.

Ahhhhhh so excited to be approved for this on #NetGalley ! I really enjoyed the first book and was looking forward to the sequel. It'll be interesting to see where the story goes.
