Ah, Spark was every bit as good as Ink was, quite possibly even better! I loved that this time we got to see the story from the other side. Ink was all about us discovering the world of the Marked, Spark is all about the Blanks and I loved the contrast. I adore the characters that Alice Broadway has created in these books. Leora is an absolute gem. I loved that this book had her laced with such doubt: was everything she had always known about the Blanks a lie? Not only was the story one that had me second guessing myself, but I also found that I just didn’t know WHO I could trust either (although I had some satisfaction in getting that one guess right…!).

I am in love with the way Alice interlaces the mythology of this world throughout the book with chapters of fairy tales included. It really enriches the world and adds a unique element to it. The ending of this book had me left OPEN MOUTHED so I can’t wait to pick up the final book in this trilogy, right now I have NO idea what will happen next!!
