Deliciously imaginative, bestselling author Emily White has taken the shapeshifting phenomenon to an altogether different dimension in her new novel, Almost Night. White has a natural tendency towards descriptive prose which she employs to create wonderfully vibrant and compelling scenes. She doesn’t allow them to become cumbersome, by keeping her word count tight, allowing just enough atmosphere to permeate her pages and temper the imagination, with this economy extended to the cast of characters that surround her young shapeshifter Lilly Grey. They are all equally well drawn with distinctive voices and personalities, with each deserving of their place in White’s tale. Nat and Ian are particularly memorable, though it’s Lilly who ultimately steals the show with White weaving decidedly dark overtures into her story. Overtures that are sure to tug at the proverbial heart strings and make Lilly a character readers will readily find themselves rooting for.bookviral/almost-night/4585380117
