Shveta Thakrar
*Chosen as a 2020 Kids’ Indie Next pick * A Locus Reading List recommendation * An Andre Norton Nebula Award Finalist*
"Shveta Thakrar's prose is as beautiful as starlight." (New York Times best-selling author Holly Black)
This gorgeously imagined YA debut blends shades of Neil Gaiman’s Stardust and a breathtaking landscape of Hindu mythology into a radiant contemporary fantasy.
The daughter of a star and a mortal, Sheetal is used to keeping secrets. Pretending to be “normal”. But when an accidental flare of her starfire puts her human father in the hospital, Sheetal needs a full star’s help to heal him. A star like her mother, who returned to the sky long ago.
Sheetal’s quest to save her father will take her to a celestial court of shining wonders and dark shadows, where she must take the stage as her family’s champion in a competition to decide the next ruling house of the heavens - and win, or risk never returning to Earth at all.
Brimming with celestial intrigue, this sparkling YA debut is perfect for fans of Roshani Chokshi and Laini Taylor.

About the Creator
I don't think it was bad but I also feel like the author was trying to cram a lot into some of the scenes.
did I hate this book no absolutely not....it was different but it's not one I would suggest to someone.
mainly because half the time I couldn't stand the main character, but that's just because indecisive people in book just annoy me.
not too bad

I think it was worth my time. The story is very interesting based on the heroes journey theme, and coming of age.
I did not appreciate the homosexuality notes.
You do not need to understand Indian culture, or religion to understand the basics of the story. If you do understand those things it will definitely add a deeper dimension to all the things that are discussed. While it was a good first run with this author, I do not intend to listen to any further of her writings.

I didn't finish this book, didn't even make it to the 3rd chapter before i started skipping to see if this book ever improves. it doesn't. i will be getting my credit back as soon as i can. This book is worse than trash it is an utter insult to real teen girls everywhere.
Everything that makes YA awful and so much more.
