Navigating the Stars by Maria V. Snyder

4.0

This book was surprisingly good. It started out a little rocky with a lot of world building and some info dumping, but I got used to the jargon and picked up on the story and things smoothed out.

I really liked Lyra as a character - yeah she was special snow-flakey but it really didn't bother me. I think I just liked how she thought, and her relationships with the other characters were well written and it was just great. I also enjoyed how involved her parents were in her life and how much she respected her parents and their opinion of her as well. The romance was a little cringey, but also really cute, and it wasn't super in your face.

I really enjoyed Maria V. Snyder's writing and story telling. It's just so easy to read and the story just flows really well. I've really enjoyed her Poison study series and this delivered just as much. I'll definitely be looking out for the next book in this series, and anything else she comes out with.
