This Cursed Light by Emily Thiede
2.0
In the second installment of The Last Finestra series, Alessa and Dante are back navigating their relationship amid the doom that sits on the horizon of a coming eclipse.
I loved This Vicious Grace, so of course I was really looking forward to This Cursed Light. Unfortunately, this book was a huge slog for me. All of the joy and playfulness that made Dante and Alessa lovable in the first book was absent from this book. They seemed stuck in an eternal miscommunication loop. After a while, it just got old. The story was okay. I wasn't wow'd by it like the first one.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC. I really wanted to like this book, but unfortunately, it just wasn't for me.
