A review by samantita
Woman of Light by Kali Fajardo-Anstine

4.0

This book had some really pretty prose, and the author had a way of writing some heartbreaking scenes. But I felt like the book was supposed to be centered around Luz and her abilities, and I was left feeling disappointed in how little we got of that.

Diego was MIA for most of the story but I felt he deserved more attention. The characters were dynamic, but there was nothing moving the story forward. We just saw the connection between the two timelines, but there was no resolution.

I was left feeling disappointed with Luz's choice at the end, and we didn't get to see how she had to live with the consequences because it wrapped up so quickly. And Diego coming back for his baby felt so random and too tidy.

3.5 stars for me
