“You have so many people to care for. I want to be the one who cares for you. I want to be the sweet voice in the dark that answers only to your call. I want to be your place of warmth and safety, your refuge and your home. I want to be the one you think of when every other thought is gone.“
“You are the thought,“ he said very low. His head was bent down; his eyes were closed. “You are that place. You are that voice.“

pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I loved this book, I love the world that I got to inhabit for 5 books, I love Shinn‘s writing, and I‘m so sad this series is over!
If you enjoy sci-fi/fantasy & effortless world building, do yourself a favor. I will forever remember Samaria & the world Shinn masterfully created.
pickThis book is 4th published but 1st chronologically, which was interesting, and I was not disappointed! Shinn‘s writing is so transportive. She doesn‘t write fast paced stories, but her settings & her characters just effortlessly draw you in. I do think this series is a little formulaic, so if you read them back to back, that could be frustrating. But reading them spread out like I‘ve done I feel like I‘ve really been able to enjoy them all.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I loved this one - definitely my favorite of the series so far! In the first two books, you followed two protagonists as their lives moved & connected & relationships were formed. In this one, there were three characters you followed, which was a nice change and also made things slightly more unpredictable & that much more satisfying when it all came together. I will never stop recommending Shinn‘s work!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️It is really hard for me to explain these books & the brilliance of Shinn‘s writing. It is not fast paced or filled with plot twists & cliffhangers. But it is perfectly subtle. Her world building is so easily done you don‘t even realize it‘s happening as you‘re reading. This book was a great addition to the series because you learn so much about where the people came from, how the angles came to be, etc. Can‘t wait to read more of Shinn‘s!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 I love how Shinn writes. There isn‘t a fast, twisty turny plot to this one, but it was a still a page turner for me nonetheless. I was always happy to pick it back up & ignore my family on Black Friday 😉 Book 2 follows different characters, so while I‘m excited to read more of Shinn‘s work, I wish there was more of the characters from book 1, too.

Thanks for the tag @Dragon! 😄
Day 1 - John Jude Palencar is probably my favourite cover artist. I love his style, can't pick just one.
