The Starless Sea

“Strange, isn't it? To love a book. When the words on the pages become so precious that they feel like part of your own history because they are. It's nice to finally have someone read stories I know so intimately.”

The Starless Sea is a book that I have had my eyes on reading for a very long time. I decided that it was time on my shelf and TBR was enough and I needed to finally pick it up. I am so glad that I did.

The first thing I want to say about this book is how beautifully written it was. Morgenstern's prose was beyond descriptive and enticing. It felt like I was reading poetry and I loved every minute of it.

As someone whose name is Bee and who loves everything to do with bees, I got a huge kick out of the link between bees and honey throughout the book. This seems silly to mention but I couldn't not say something about it.

The Starless Sea was joyful, adventurous, unique and beautiful. It was filled with fantastic characters, magical world-building and romance that had me gushing for more.

I loved every minute of this book.
