A review by lemonstaaa
Seeking Crystal by Joss Stirling
5.0
(A bit of spoiler so scroll away if you've not read this yet)
To be frank, I never thought that I'd be so enthralled by a series so much that I would set calendar dates for when the next book would release. And never have I once regretted it. Seeking Crustal was clever, sweet and salty, crazy, love-filled and much more. It was the right amount of everything a book about finding your soulmate(soul finder) should be having! When Diamond met Trace, I swear I had goosebumps whilst reading their conversation. And when Crystal projected her thoughts to Xavier, finding out they were soul finders, I couldn't stop smiling! Although I loved the kiss much better! ;)
It was just an amazing experience reading a book which made me smile at the lovey-dovey moments, tense up at the suspense, tighten my fists at the sound of vengeance from the countess, bite my lip and frown when none of the girls remembered their soul-finders and most importantly clench my teeth together when I finished the book.
It made me ask myself if love like that existed, without the mystical world of powers and mind-reading. The irony is that the characters in the entire series are so much easier to relate to than many other teenage oriented books. I could not praise Joss Stirling (Julia Golding) enough. She is an incredibly talented writer and has to, absolutely positutely write more and more books, even when she's done with the Benedict's!
Buying Finding Sky may have just been a coincidence because I really liked the cover and the summary behind, but definitely not a mistake. Right after I was done, I got two more of my friends obsessed to the stage I am with the books. Now that I've heard of the new Zed story, I knew I had to submit a review and at least pray that my stars proved lucky for me this time to be one do the three winners!
Next time anyone, of any age, asks me for a book meant for those young hopeless romantics, the first few books I'll recommend are this series.
Keep it up and hope you gain more and more publicity so that more girls my age can indulge themselves into such an adventure. :D
