My Thougths:
In this set so far, I've read the Glass Sky. I have to say that I got completely wrapped up in this one. It starts with what is happening now then flashes back to explain what happened previously. Star doesn't want to marry any of the suitors her parents have presented to her. Then everything around her explodes, literally, and she is saved by a man named Clyde.
It isn't difficult to guess who Clyde is but I was intrigued with what all was going on throughout the story. I want to know more about this world and what happens to it. I really liked Clyde and Star for that matter. I wasn't a big fan of her parents but they were well written characters. Overall, I say grab a copy of this book to read because it is a great set up for future books!
5/5 for me. I can't wait to read more in this!!
Thank you to the author for the review copy of this book. I received this book in exchange for an honest review and the opinions stated above are 100% mine.
