Lightlark by Alex Aster
3.75
adventurous emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I truly did not expect the Celeste twist. The grim betrayal was expected but not the falling in love part. I feel like the impact of the betrayal was muted since immediately after Isla was still down to sacrifice everything for him.
Apart from the plot, the writing style was meh and not my favorite.
