This book tore me up inside in the best of ways. I can't say it enough that everyone should read this if you haven't. Poetically written with the pain of love and death in it. The originality of the plot has a choke hold on me. I have not read anything like it.
Ok. Wow so many things happen in this book. A lot of questions answered from the previous one but now we need more answers ! Haha need book 3 like yesterday! 🤣💜
I read this recently, straight after she (I.Mazyar) released it on kindle. Now, I'm normally not an e-reader but I was just too impatient to wait for the physical copy.. (PS: I'm ordering the physical copy soon) Before I continue this, can we take a minute to bask in the beauty of this cover? The pomergranates, gold accents and general vibe is just immaculate. Soul Dealer made me feel things I didn't think I could feel? Not to be dramatic but I'd die for this book, over and over again. I didn't think it could surpass her first book, Mask Dealer. But there I.Mazyar goes again, proving everyone wrong and shocking us with an even more beautiful but oh so tragic book. The character development is actually insane. But one character that really really made be bawl my eyes out for was Omaar, ah, sad poor Omaar.. he's a hopeless romantic, just let him be happy and play his piano goddamit! Now, I don't know how to go on about this without spoiling anything, but Reeva just really made my body psychically and mentally ache. She deserves happiness and is constantly in survival mode, I can just feel what she's feeling, and it hurts so damn bad. I've honestly never liked an MC more, she's my girl. And I feel so dead inside after finishing this, it was on a Sunday just as the sun rose, my room was warm but I felt cold inside. The perfect ending. I.Mazyar, you've just stabbed me, twice. And I probably won't recover.. 3
I LOVE the first book, but I am OBSESSED with this one. It has a similar vibe, but it is nothing like I expected it to be.
It told the stories I needed to hear. It kept me rushing through the pages, though I didn’t want the story to end. It had me speechless and wide-eyed on so many occasions.
Just a wild ride...
I need more stars for this book. 5⭐️ is terribly not enough!
Wow just wow! When you think you have it all figured out and then find out you’re not even close! The twists in this story have completely captivated me and consumed my mind. I’m not sure where to even go from here. The way it starts off with a bang and keeps you on the edge is pure perfection. You will find yourself playing the guessing game time and time again. I absolutely loved Soul Dealer.
This is the most thrilling, tension building, and unique plot I have ever found in a dystopian. The writing still is compl captivating and draws you into the book. Couldn’t put it down.
The emotions I felt were such a crazy mix.
The artwork I found myself in utter awe at how gorgeous they all were. So much talent in both the writing and art.
Now comes the struggle of waiting for book 3. That cliffhanger had me using colorful words but oh so worth it!
The sequel to Mask Dealer is here! It's very unique and not like anything I've read before. Her writing reminds me of Taherah Mafi, but with poetry like Ellen Hopkins. A dystopian world separated by races, where the underdogs are controlled by memories, and can gain them back through what they call the Amnesia Game.It is written in such a poetic and surreal way, and mystery that makes me want to keep turning the page.
13 chapters to go and I can't put into words what I am feeling. OMG!!! I am loving Mori more in this book. So many emotions. Writing has slightly improved, and the style changed. I am loving it. I come from Italian culture where romance/emotions are a big part of our life. And this book is just perfect. It covers everything I want in a book. This is my top reads this year. Thank you Tik Tok. I found an amazing indie author.
I don’t even know where to start with my review. The twists and turns in this story had me on the edge of my seat. The writing style is beautiful. I cannot wait until book 3. This is ending has me in total shock and my heart tore out!! The way this book had me starting to love a character I hated in the first book and hating someone I previously liked! So good! If you haven’t read these yet what are you waiting for!!!
I don’t even know how to put into words the impact this book had on me. OM - first if you have not yet done so - read Mask Dealer immediately, and make sure you have this one on deck - because you will need it.
This book is so incredibly unique and the world is absolutely incredible. I could not put this down, yet never wanted it to end.
There are so many emotions you feel from beginning to end. You are always guessing and thinking you know, and then - no you don’t. As the story unfolds, your jaw will be on the floor. (I may have thrown my book a few times).
I. Mazyar delivers a beautiful, tragic, inspiring, captivating story and is such an incredible author and human. I cannot wait to see how this story unfolds in book 3!
All I can say is WOW. I thought I loved the first one. This one somehow beats it. Again, couldn't put it down. I need more, I read it in time for the third to come out. The writing is just impeccable, its so dark and evokes so much emotion, it's poetic. You think you have it all figured out, but you don't. I am rarely speechless but I can't quite articulate how much I loved this book without repeating myself. Multiple POV's, all the character development is so well done. This is dark romance written for the soul.
