Spin the Dawn (The Blood of Stars #1)





Project Runway meets Mulan in this sweeping YA fantasy about a young girl who poses as a boy to compete for the role of imperial tailor and embarks on an impossible journey to sew three magic dresses, from the sun, the moon, and the stars.

Maia Tamarin dreams of becoming the greatest tailor in the land, but as a girl, the best she can hope for is to marry well. When a royal messenger summons her ailing father, once a tailor of renown, to court, Maia poses as a boy and takes his place. She knows her life is forfeit if her secret is discovered, but she'll take that risk to achieve her dream and save her family from ruin. There's just one catch: Maia is one of twelve tailors vying for the job.

Backstabbing and lies run rampant as the tailors compete in challenges to prove their artistry and skill. Maia's task is further complicated when she draws the attention of the court magician, Edan, whose piercing eyes seem to see straight through her disguise.

And nothing could have prepared her for the final challenge: to sew three magic gowns for the emperor's reluctant bride-to-be, from the laughter of the sun, the tears of the moon, and the blood of stars. With this impossible task before her, she embarks on a journey to the far reaches of the kingdom, seeking the sun, the moon, and the stars, and finding more than she ever could have imagined.

Steeped in Chinese culture, sizzling with forbidden romance, and shimmering with magic, this young adult fantasy is pitch-perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas or Renée Ahdieh.

Fraco e decepcionante
on 22/10/21


Esse livro é uma das maiores decepções literárias da minha vida, definitivamente está no top 3 das maiores desse ano. Talvez a culpa seja minha, porque eu esperava que ele fosse ótimo, mas a culpa também é bastante da autora e da editora. A maior razão da minha decepção nem é o livro não ser tão bom quanto poderia ter sido, mas ele ser vendido como Project Runway + Mulan. Eu entendo a necessidade de vender um livro, mas vender praticamente mentindo só vai fazer os leitores se decepc... leia mais
