Anthesis by Lauren Elizabeth

5.0

"The sea is calling, and so is her desire to kill."

I need more books like this. Lauren, I love your book. I had a struggle of wanting to devour it. So I paced my self not to rush through it but savor it. Was that ending a hint at a second book?! Because I want more of your writing and stories.

This book hit me in some deep parts of my heart. Aglasia emotional journey with loneliness and wanting love but pushing everything away broke my heart for her. This book is dark but in a good healing way. You can only find the light after you hit the bottom of your darkness. Aglasia immortality became a struggle for her and she could only pretend to play the human part for so long before people and memories of her past came back and upturned her quite lonely world. I love this book and it is definitely in my top books for the year. And I love the title of the book and what it meant to Aglasia story!
