Too much happened at the end and too much was left open for this to be the only book. I liked this, but I can't rate it any higher because this just feels too open.

Got around 100 pages in, I enjoyed the characters but some of the topics where too close to earth and my anxiety for me to continue

Aliens. Books. Dystopian NYC. This book screams my name, so it is no shock this this is one of my most anticipated reads and debuts of 2020 (Though I got to read it last week!) The Sound of Stars did not disappoint for one second and kept me wanting and needing to know what was going to happen next.

Can we take a moment to admire how beautiful the cover for this novel is?! The art and the colors blend beautifully and I absolutely adore it, the ARC is stunning but I can't wait to see finished copies of this beauty.

Alechia is a debut author and for her first novel, The Sound of Stars is magnificent. The world building, characters and plot bring this story a live in front of the reader. I can't wait for every one else to meet Ellie and M0Rr1S!

I loved every moment of this post apocalyptic road trip to save humanity and literature and music and I can't wait to see what the sequel will hold. (There will be a sequel, right? *insert puppy dog eyes here*)

Beautiful and unique premise. Please tell me there's a second book coming because I want to explore more of the universe and see what happens next! I loved that it ended on a note of hope, but I still want to see how things tie up in the end. And I love the Starry Eyed - I had a hunch of who they were, but I still loved how it was brought about and portrayed.
