4 ⭐️ - Thank you so much Sourcebooks Fire for providing me with an E-ARC of this book!!

This novel, The Sun and the Starmaker was so beautiful and unique! I truly enjoyed reading this book!!

I absolutely loved the concept of this!! It was such a unique take and something I’ve never seen or read about before! So perfect as a cozy winter read! It was so magical and had to so much life and character to it! The writing was so beautiful, very vivid and descriptive which made it easy for me to keep up with the story!! I’ve loved other books by this author so it’s not surprise that I loved this one too!

The romance was perfection. You know I love the star-crossed lovers trope. This book was so romantic and beautiful. After recent events in my real life it honestly made me believe in and have hope for love again! I loved the Starmaker and Aurora’s connection so much. They are opposites but complement each other perfectly. I laughed and I cried but overall I’m happy with the ending and absolutely loved the epilogue! It tied the story together perfectly!

I did really enjoy this book! I ended up giving it 4 stars just because it was a bit slow for me. I felt like it didn’t have a true plot until about 55% through which is a little unfortunate and there are some worldbuilding/plot holes at times.

Overall, I really loved this book and I definitely recommend it! Not to mention the author completed this after having a life changing brain injury, truly inspiring! I’m so excited to read even more books by Rachel Griffin and I can’t wait to see what she writes next! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a cozy adult fantasy with a small amount of spice.

Thank you once again to the publisher for providing me with a gifted copy in exchange for an honest review!
