Late Night Book Reviews with Bluejay — the Night and its Moon
Time: 1:43 pm
Regret: low. I was able to put this book down and finish it during the daytime
Summary: I’m honestly not sure why people like this. I’m not sold on the prose nor on the world building nor on the characters nor on the plot. If you’re one of the people who likes this novel, I’m glad you enjoyed it, but I really don’t understand why. Perhaps it will inspire me to create some stuff of my own.
Full thoughts:
I’m really sorry; I don’t want to be critical of this book, especially since I know people like it. I hope this doesn’t come off too mean spirited.
In theory I should have loved this thing. Two orphans, Nox and Amaris, experience trauma and then get shipped off to learn about their magic powers and become badass. Also, they’re gay for each other. Fantasy, magic, queer female leads, hell yeah!
The only problem was that it lowkey sucked.
One of my biggest problems with this book is its prose. It’s overly wordy, does not flow very well, and frequently is either redundant or confusing. The book will frequently spend two paragraphs hammering in a point that could be told in a sentence and then jump to another action so abruptly I keep thinking I’ve missed a detail. I was often left wondering where hands or weapons or people were located because it just wasn’t mentioned that character X picked up Y and then the next paragraph begins “Using the Y in her right hand, X began to…”.
I was also frequently bothered by the word choice. Most of the sex scenes have lines like “his stick of serotonin and dopamine entered her” and I gotta say, please just say “dick”. Please. Stop listing neurotransmitters. This is fantasy and also the bedroom. Why do these characters know what oxytocin is and why are they bringing it up now. I’m not kidding when I say that multiple sex scenes used specific neurotransmitter names. It doesn’t sound fancy, it just sounds strange. Also, ‘guise’ doesn’t mean that at all. Please get an editor.
I think a lot of other people have talked about how Nox being written as one of the only dark skinned characters and also being a succubus who kills/puppets men around after fucking then is A Choice, and I gotta say, I liked young Nox’s POV a lot, but once the book gets to the succubus section of her life I just fell off. It feels like the book is trying to be very ‘girl power’ and ‘look at this woman weaponizing her sexuality’ and it all falls very flat for me. “She’s so hot and can manipulate any man” ok please tell me something interesting. In general, I felt like both main characters were a bit like this, with Amaris being so badass and good with a sword and having powers and clearly being somewhat of a chosen one, but tbh, I have a lot more tolerance for montages about how Amaris knows lots of demon facts cuz she studies hard than I do for poorly written seduction.
One thing I really crave from stories like this, especially if I don’t love the characters, is a cool magic system. I’m a sucker for hard magic, but I also love soft, emotional magic that erupts at a dramatic moment. And I think that would work much better here in the story. Instead, this book delivers a magic system that I really can’t tell you about because it’s not really fleshed out, and what is told doesn’t seem to gel neatly into a single Thing. I feel like the magic (and more broadly, the world building in general) is just cobbled together from the leftovers of a few different other fantasy stories. Do people hate the fae or not? Is magic taboo or not? What gifts are possible? What the hell are demons? I’m really not sure. And more broadly, the map feels very empty and like it was concocted from tropes and not much else.
I just want this thing to be good. I really do. And it’s just. Not. I was at turns bored and annoyed by it and I still don’t get what I was supposed to love. I would honestly rather reread ACoTaR.

Currently reading: The Sun and Its Shade by Piper CJ
My thoughts so far? I’m really enjoying this story so far! Much better than the first book imo. At the moment it’s a 4.5⭐️ read for me. We’ll see how things are wrapped up and if I change my mind.
Amaris has been a little immature in this book but I love seeing Nox’s side of things. I’m on the fence about Gadriel but I love Malik. He seems so sweet lol.
I have already ordered the 3rd book though and it should be here on Wednesday.

Randomly bumped into a friend at Barnes & Noble this evening. Very surprised to see him since he lives so far away, but he was getting dinner with coworkers right next door (Although he also works pretty far away, so still surprising).
I was working my way down the Display Table Aisle. I picked up Gideon the Ninth (You know what they say, no advertising campaign will ever be as persuasive as a mutual on a reblog spree) and The Night and Its Moon (The cover of a sequel was very compelling, but you have to start at the beginning).
He got The Mountain In The Sea (He was lured in by the Cthulhu-esque cover).
I hesitated for a bit over The Olympian Affair, book two of the Cinder Spires series by Jim Butcher, but ultimately decided to pass. I read the first book, and at the time I would have said I was down to continue, but I have really soured on Jim Butcher given what went down over at The Dresden Files. I'm not sure I'm even going to continue that series, let alone this new one.
Now the only problem is that I need to finish IT before I can read either of these two new books (Oh, BTW, I'm reading IT).

[La notte e la sua luna][Piper CJ]
Il destino del loro mondo è nelle loro mani e nel legame che le unisce.
Farleigh non è solo un orfanotrofio, anche se è questo che la chiesa vorrebbe far credere alla gente. Ma Nox e Amaris, cresciute insieme e unite da un legame speciale, sanno bene che dietro all’istituto c’è molto altro. Chiunque, là dentro, è merce in vendita, acquistabile dal miglior offerente. Così, quando la maîtresse di un famigerato bordello di una città lontana offre una cifra importante…

hello yes hi hello I have found one of my favorite high fantasy Sapphic novels to date :)
Tumblr media
If you tend to avoid synopsis for potential spoilers, heads up! I'm going to type it directly from the back of the book here.
quick break
quick break
"Farleigh is just an orphanage. At least, that's what the church would have the people believe, but beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place, while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins.
Even as they take up new lives and identities, Nox and Amaris never forget one thing; they will stop at nothing to reunite. But the threat of war looms overhead, and the two are inevitably swept into a conflict between human and fae, magic and mundane. With strange new alliances, untested powers, and a bond that neither time nor distance could possibly break, the fate of the realms lies in the hands of two orphans--and the love they hold for each other."
I bought it at Walmart of all places, so I'd recommend checking out your local store's book section if you're interested.
