Daughter of the Moon

Effie Calvin takes us on an intriguing trip of opposites in Daughter of the Moon. I think this is how Netheia would describe her new world in exile, except leave out the word “intriguing” and insert vexing (laugh). Nothing about this country is to Netheia's tastes, but then it represents everything she is not. Calvin then takes us on a voyage of self-discovery which is extremely uncomfortable for Netheia.

Whereas Klavida is embracing the knowledge and looking for more. In a desperate search for answers, Calvin blends the paranormal and mythology to satisfy today's question regarding identity in one way (though we all know there are many different answers). Calvin gives us a mythological and romantic answer for Daughter of the Moon.

This solution allows both characters to move forward and it works for this story. I enjoyed this journey and I appreciate Daughter of the Moon for exactly what it is: a fantastical story of two who fall in love and become better for it.

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
