Cair

Book Review: Cair by Eryn Hawk

Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3.5/5)

Eryn Hawk's “Cair” is a cute but ultimately underwhelming read. While the story has its charming moments, it struggles with character depth and engagement. Luca and Cair, the main characters, both lack the complexity needed to make them truly memorable. Cair, in particular, is supposed to appear charming, but his personality borders on annoying, detracting from the overall enjoyment. One particularly bothersome aspect was Cair's use of “pet” as a pet name for Luca. This term felt out of place and detracted from their interactions, making it difficult to invest in their relationship fully. Although there were a few funny moments scattered throughout the book, they weren't enough to keep the story from feeling like a chore to finish. “Cair” didn't stand out as anything special. It's a light read with some cute elements, but it falls short of delivering a compelling and engaging narrative. Recommended only for those looking for a quick, lighthearted read without high expectations.
