The Unfamiliar was a beautifully written and haunting story that pulled me in right away. I loved the mix of magic, mystery, and emotion throughout the book. The atmosphere was rich and immersive, and the characters felt layered and real. It struck a great balance between eerie and heartfelt. A solid 4/5 stars from me!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Unfamiliar, the second book in the series. The complexity of the characters and their development throughout the story is a highlight for me. I love seeing their roles evolve and their personalities shine, as well as the chemistry between them. Glass’s skillful world-building from the first book laid a strong foundation, allowing the details in this second installment to grow and expand seamlessly. The story’s flow was smooth and easy to follow, with the pacing done just right. I can definitely see myself recommending this series to others.
