Unravel the Dusk (The Blood of Stars, #2)
Elizabeth Lim
Maia Tamarin’s journey to sew the dresses of the sun, the moon and the stars has taken a grievous toll. She returns to a kingdom on the brink of war. The boy she loves is gone, and she is forced to don the dress of the sun and assume the place of the emperor’s bride-to-be to keep the peace. But the war raging around Maia is nothing compared to the battle within. Ever since she was touched by the demon Bandur, she has been changing . . . glancing in the mirror to see her own eyes glowing red, losing control of her magic, her body, her mind. It’s only a matter of time before Maia loses herself completely, but she will stop at nothing to find Edan, protect her family, and bring lasting peace to her country. YA fantasy readers will love the sizzling forbidden romance, mystery, and intrigue of Unravel the Dusk.

Unravel the Dusk is the sequel to Elizabeth Lim's well-received Spin the Dawn, which was marketed as Mulan meets Project Runway. As a sequel, this novel is very much difficult to review without spoiling the first book.
Unravel the Dusk picks up shortly after the end of Spin the Dawn. Lim addressed all of the questions I had at the end of that novel, and wrapped up what I believe is a duology in a satisfying way. I did enjoy the plotlines of Spin the Dawn more, but I thought Lim was clever in how she resolved the issues raised in Spin the Dawn during the telling of Unravel the Dusk.
Overall, I enjoyed my reading experience of Unravel the Dusk and was grateful to have the opportunity to read it early.
