Come with me to An Island Strange and Wild, I promise you wont regret it.
How to describe this Romantasy YA story? Compelling? Mysterious?Heartwarming? Frustrating?Infuriating? Delightful? Its all of these and more.
The story of Rosalie is as mysterious as the island she finds herself upon. I can't delve too much into the plot of this book for fear of giving away one of the myriad twists, turns, layers and slants that you have waiting for you in the pages of this marvellous world that Lisa Amowitz has dreamed up.
The world building is enticing and tantalising and will have you almost imagining the salt tainted breeze and flower scented air. The plot is as delectable and perplexing as our enigmatic male lead.
There is so much to explore here and the result is a satisfyingly frustrating piece of writing that will leave you waiting on tenterhooks for book 2.
Take a chance on Rosalie and Liam, I promise, it will be worth it.
