Shadow Kin by M.J. Scott

4.0

I was very much looking forward to reading Shadow Kin & had been holding onto it as a reward book. I wasn't disappointed and look forward to Book 2.

I loved the world building that came through seamlessly as Lily and Simon told the story. The story was interesting all the way to the end and I ended up doing the sign of a very good book - I stayed up until I finished it (1.30am) to see what happened to both Lily and Simon. I also very much enjoyed the way the story was written, using two 1st person pov (& the markers in my edition of sun & moon made for easy, seamless switching).

All the characters were intriguing, well developed and had depths from Liam to Atherton to Ricco to Bryony and I felt a connection to each. I wonder if Guy will one day have his own story to tell.

A sign of a very good story is when the world and the characters linger which this book as accomplished.
