Bright Objects by Ruby Todd is a good mystical thriller with a dash of romance and astronomy! 🤯☄️

Blurb: Sylvia Knight is losing hope that the person who killed her husband will ever face justice. Since the night of the hit-and-run, her world has been shrouded in hazy darkness—until she meets Theo St. John, the discoverer of a rare comet soon to be visible to the naked eye.

As the comet begins to brighten, Sylvia wonders what the apparition might signify. She is soon drawn into the orbit of local mystic Joseph Evans, who believes the comet’s arrival is nothing short of a divine message. Finding herself caught between two conflicting perspectives of this celestial phenomenon, she struggles to define for herself where the reality lies. As the comet grows in the sky, her town slowly descends further and further into a fervor over its impending apex, and Sylvia’s quest to uncover her husband’s killer will push her and those around her to the furthest reaches of their very lives.

I enjoyed reading Bright Objects! Although the writing was difficult to follow at times, it was a gripping enough story to keep me at the edge of my seat. Sylvia is an amazing FMC who is caught between two widely different spectrums, one scientific and one spiritual (?). Her race to decide who to trust before a life-changing comet hits her small Australian town was intriguing and suspenseful! I never would have guessed the revelations at the end. All in all, a great read if you love space and unsolved/unexplained mysteries. 😊💫
