“The poetic prose, the immersive world-building, the meticulously crafted characters, and the captivating storytelling all contributed to a truly ethereal narrative. Camilla’s prose, with its magical and mesmerizing flow, kept me enchanted while providing a rich plot and character development.

This is a true gothic fantasy, down to its core.”

“I’ve read a lot of genuinely good books that I forgot about the moment I finished them. It takes something special for a book to linger- it’s a quality I can’t put into words and that likely comes down to taste, but this book definitely has it for me.”

Audrey

Goodreads

“It has decadent prose, with a savoury pace that leaves you turning the page one after another until you realize it’s 4 am and you have to wake up to go to work soon. But, the sleepless and timeless days spent lost in this book are worth every moment.”

Jacques

Goodreads

“For a while now, I was always finding books that didn’t really drag me into their world and the story itself. I was craving the feeling, when you can forget about where you are, and live in another realm with the characters sorrounding you.

And with When The Stars Alight, I could finally scratch that itch.”
