I didn’t think it was too much – but if you go into it expecting something lighter, you might be in for a bad time. You never know how a super hyped book will turn out, you know? But let me tell you – I was not disappointed! This is Holly Black’s first adult novel, and it is intense and brilliant.Īs an adult novel, it’s probably good to note that there are more trigger warnings than Holly Black’s YA counterparts. I’ll be honest I wasn’t sure what to expect from Book of Night. Yet even Charlie isn’t prepared for the level of shit she’s about to stick her nose in. It doesn’t help that her boyfriend keeps secrets or that old not-really-friends demand her help.
Charlie can’t keep her nose out of it there are just too many compelling things happening around her. She has a new boyfriend, a job (a legal one too!), and is even paying the rent. Despite this history, she’s been trying to go clean. If you love darker fantasy stories, this will be a perfect read.Ĭharlie Hall has been a liar and a thief for most of her life. In other words, it’s the first novel of hers that isn’t labeled young adult, and I am here for it.
Warnings: Violence, con artists, stalking, abuse, self-harm (to get blood), cancer, toxic living situations, druggingīook of Nightis Holly Black’s adult debut novel.
