Okay. I just spent another 15 minutes watching Daisy x Garth edits. I’m only human.

But they helped me to rethink the ‘I didn’t expect the fall in love with anyone’ scene.

He’s not talking about Agnes, is he? He’s not talking about Agnes!

Just saw the most amazing Daisy x Garth edit on the TikTok. And I can’t scream about it anywhere else, so here we are.

Is anyone talking about this book? It's good, you should read it!

Illusion of Stars. I need the sequel. I need to reread it. I need the shelf trophy. I need to get everyone else to read it.

This story is as magnetic to me as the Sanok Isles to Isabel. There were times I was so pleased that I'd seen a twist coming - only for the *other* twists to knock my feet from under me. The pacing, both of the plot and of actual sentences, is a masterclass. The narrator is wholly unreliable in the most delicious of ways. The question of trust, and who to give yours to, is tangled up in threads of politics, romance, and geography. The weather and the setting are tangible characters of their own. The foreshadowing and the timeline is tantalisingly tangled.

I adored the world building, which introduces an original and complex political and cultural setting smoothly and without complication. The characters are all complex, three-dimensional, tangible, and relatable.

This is my favourite book of 2024, without a doubt. I don't remember the last time I devoured something so wholly. I'm not into star ratings, but if I was, this one would be up there.
