The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern
5.0

I knew Erin Morgenstern wouldn’t disappoint! Without a doubt 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If someone was to ask me what my favourite book is I’d blurt out THE NIGHT CIRCUS!! But now? After reading THIS?! Well... I can now say The Starless Sea AND The Night Circus are my favourites.

This book was lush! I’d even go as far as to say it was better than The Night Circus - gasp! and *insert monkey covering mouth emoji*

Everything about it was beautiful!

Normally when reading books, I admittedly struggle to envision what’s before my eyes, struggle to being there, you know. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s cos my brain has too many tabs open and I get easy distracted with other stuff. But in The Starless Sea I saw everything. I was there. I was fully submerged! (Excuse the pun).

Absolutely unreal!

I honestly think Erin is my favourite author. Her words, her wonderful imagination captivate me each time I turn pages in her books. She needs to write more!!!


This book will stay with me forever. The version I had of the book was on Kindle but now I wish I had a physical copy, too. I might have to invest in the hardcover whilst it’s still available cos I needs it.

I will honestly reread this again in the future. Rereading books is something I tend to avoid because there are literally THOUSANDS of books that needs to be read. But I need to revisit The Starless Sea very soon.
