The Starless Sea Book Review
Overall, I’m not sure I’d like to sail The Starless Sea – it seems quite an inhospitable place. That being said, I would definitely dive back into Morgenstern’s imagination for another journey.

If you’re here for action scenes, dialogue between our heroes and the villain, and explosions (lots of explosions), you’ve come to the right place.
Popovic breathes life into this infamous story, putting a modern, feminist twist on one of the world’s most sinister female villains.
Sit back, relax, and prepare to obey your husband as you join me in this world of patriarchal hullabaloo.
Flat, undeveloped characters, telling instead of showing, and a lackluster plot all contribute to a novel that just isn’t working.
The premise immediately sounded like something I would love – an alternate reality Victorian society where genetic compatibility is a key factor in many marriages. However, once you step into the plot, things get a little weird.
[The story] holds a magical allure without stepping outside the boundaries of realism. The journey Alexandra goes on to return the ashes is like the trials and tribulations of an epic hero, though in a much more modern sense.
If you like to read about robots giving humans commands, then this is the book for you. However, if you like to read stories with well-developed characters and plot, then stay away.
