Action packed and filled with danger and wonder, These Broken Stars, encapsulates everything that I love about a science fiction book. All of the elements come together so realistically and blend so brilliantly well together, it's hard not to love it. The adventure and romance between Tarver and Lilac is the best part of the book, in my opinion. I fell in love with the gorgeous chemistry between the two of them, the sheer intensity, of coming together and building slowly, only to be ripped apart again made it even more incredible. The world building alone, is absolutely phenomenal! It's rife with danger, action, and heart stopping moments that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Kaufman and Spooner have done a brilliant job at penning such an originally stunning and gorgeous novel. The complexity of this story alone, is enough to rouse your interest and keep you reading until the last page. If you are a fan of science fiction novels such as the amazing Across the Universe, then this is the book that you'll want to pick up and read. It is, without a doubt, one of my favorite books that I've read this year. The characters, the story, the romance...it's everything that I was expecting it to be and so much more.This is a book that is definitely not to be missed out on.
