Broken Souls and Bones
by LJ Andrews
I’ll start this by saying I will read (and love) anything LJ Andrews writes, and I was SO excited to read this book!!I ended up loving the story and characters so much, and I am SO looking forward to the next book. The only downside with this book, though, is that the world building and lore were HEAVY, so it took me a little while to get into, but once the story got going, I was hooked!!
This book had a good balance of plot and romance, but the romance was still the priority. It wasn’t a slow burn, but it was still done really well. The main characters were immediately drawn to each other, and it’s explained later on. I absolutely loved Roark’s sign language, and how Lyra’s soul knew what he was saying. “Tap tap tap” was truly so beautiful.
Lyra was an absolutely wonderful FMC. She’s kind and selfless, but still has a badass vicious streak. I loved the bone magic in this book and found it to be so interesting. The found family was wonderful, so the ending did hurt a bit, ngl 😭 something I really liked is that the other crafters didn’t hate Lyra for being sent to stonegate idk I just found her friendship with Hilda and her brother to be really wholesome. Thane and Emi absolutely deserve, and Yrsa was a wonderful surprise too. At the end of the book, relationships and alliances got so much more complicated, so I can’t wait to see how everything pans out in book 2
