Nevernight
by Jay Kristoff
What could you do if you had no fear?
-As soon as I started to care about these characters, I was filled with a sense of dread. There is a damn mountain full of assassins, where everyone has a chip on their shoulder and only a few will win. I immediately started to go through the grief process, bargaining with the God that is Jay, PLEASE give me some semblance of a HEA. I need it for this poor broken girl.
-That said, I was completely broken at the end myself. The book hangover is REAL. Please send bloody marys and a kitten.
-Basically from the torture scenes forward, it was just constant gutting. My heart was hurting heavily.
-I'm more of a sci-fi reader and have been lukewarm-to-extreme distaste with any of the fantasy I've read. But Nevernight works. The world building is mostly told through hilarious footnotes and never felt forced. Like, a world with three suns, made from the bones of a dead god. Makes total sense to me.
-As for the writing, this is Jay's world and you can take it or leave it. It's not for everyone, and that's ok.
-The voice of HBO narrates all 20 glorious hours of the audiobook, which we can't recommend enough.
-Smut, smut, and more smut. Delicious smutty bits. Those scenes put romance novels to shame.
You've got the look of a girl who's no stranger to the page. I can tell. You've got words in your soul.
