This Night So Dark by Meagan Spooner, Amie Kaufman
2.0
Hey, a short little novella. Why not? I though. It was okay, nothing special. I didn't care for the plot and was confused throughout the whole story. If you asked me to give a summary of this, no words would come out of my mouth. Seriously, I don't remember a single thing that happened except for the interactions between Tarver and Lilac in the present. It was nice to read about the two again, and I would've preferred to get more insight into their lives after [b:These Broken Stars|13138635|These Broken Stars (Starbound, #1)|Amie Kaufman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1383578978s/13138635.jpg|18315607].
The writing is fluid, and made me crave some of that poetic inner monologue that we saw in the first installment.
The actual novella is only 50 pages, and the other 60 are excerpts of [b:These Broken Stars|13138635|These Broken Stars (Starbound, #1)|Amie Kaufman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1383578978s/13138635.jpg|18315607] and [b:This Shattered World|13138734|This Shattered World (Starbound, #2)|Amie Kaufman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1399982893s/13138734.jpg|18315710].
Since I've already read the first book, I skipped that one and went straight into the sneak peak of the sequel, which was enjoyable. I already like the new characters more than Tarver and Lilac, and think they had a lot more chemistry. The tension between them was solid, and there's a chance I'll read the full novel. Jubilee Chase sounds kick-ass.
