Mirage
by Somaiya Daud
4.5 (I rounded up)
This book was another that I liked a lot more than I thought I would. 2018 has been the year for books y'all.
Mirage by Somaiya Daud is intelligently and creatively written and I absolutely cannot wait to continue the story when the next book comes out. I did feel as though the book has somewhat of an abrupt ending, but that's probably because I didn't want the book to end anyways.
This book is both sci-fi and fantasy, and I think that when those two genres are tied together, it makes for an awesome world, and story-telling.
The world-building at first was confusing as this story takes place on several different moons (which is super cool, by the way). After getting into the story more, the setting of the book made more sense and I really enjoyed it.
The characters..
wow. Just wow. The characters are so well written, and I don't want to spoil anything but our main character (Amani), the princess (Maran), and Idris have such differing personalities and the way that they grow and ebb through the story was just spectacular.
I'm just going to leave it here, and stop rambling. If you haven't added this book to your TBR, do it now!
If you enjoy books with a sci-fi, fantasy feel, with some romance, deep plots and friendship, then I 110% recommend that you add this book to your TBR!
Thank you to the publisher and to Netgalley for sending me an e-ARC of this book.
