I’ve been following the 'Lightlark' series by Alex Aster closely, and it’s one of those fantasy worlds that just pulls you in. As of now, there’s only one book released, titled 'Lightlark,' which came out in August 2022. It’s a YA fantasy with a ton of hype, especially on BookTok, for its unique premise and lush world-building. The story revolves around a cursed island and a deadly competition, and it’s got that perfect mix of romance, intrigue, and high stakes. From what I’ve gathered, Alex Aster has plans for more books in the series, but no official announcements yet. I’m really hoping for a sequel because the ending left me craving more. The author’s active on social media, so I’m keeping an eye out for updates. If you’re into fast-paced fantasy with a dash of romance, this one’s worth checking out.
For those who love series like 'The Hunger Games' or 'A Court of Thorns and Roses,' 'Lightlark' fits right in. The world is richly detailed, and the characters are complex. I’d recommend joining the fan discussions on platforms like Twitter or Tumblr—there’s a lot of speculation about where the story could go next. The book’s popularity means it’s likely to expand, so fingers crossed for more soon!
