THE DARK LIGHT

Reviewed by Lyn Nicholas

Fantasy | Young Adult

THE DARK LIGHT is an epic young adult fantasy filled with romance, adventure, and intrigue. It is filled with fun new mythology unlike anything you've ever seen before.

Mia Stone is a headstrong young girl with a strange past. She knows what she wants out of life and most of it involves answers that no one seems to want to give her. Her brother has been kidnapped by an unseen force and she enlists the help of the new guy in town. Together they enter an unbelievable new world in hopes of rescuing her brother.

The love interest, Sol, is a serious and confident bad boy with a beautiful tattoo that Mia just can't get our of her mind. The secret this mysterious guy is hiding will keep you involved and interested until the very end. Not to mention, he will keep Mia and every other woman around in a constant state of swoon!

The tone of THE DARK LIGHT is very dark and shrouded in constant mystery. New information seems to be revealed in every single chapter and you just won't want to stop reading. You'll become just as desperate for answers as our main character and won't stop until you have them. By the end, you certainly won't be disappointed!

I am so desperate to read more from this world and more from outstanding author, Sara Walsh!

SUMMARY

Mia is torn between two guysβ€”and two worldsβ€”in this epic, romantic fantasy. Mysterious lights have flickered above Crownsville for as long as Mia can remember. And as far as she’s concerned, that’s about the only interesting thing to happen in her small town. That is, until Sol arrives. Mia’s not one to fall for just any guy, but she can’t get Solβ€”or the brilliant tattoo on his backβ€”out of her mind. Then Mia’s brother goes missing, and Mia’s convinced that Sol knows more than he’s sharing. But getting closer to Sol means reevaluating everything Mia once believed to be true. Because Sol’s not who Mia thought he wasβ€”and neither is she.
