The Wish-Eater by Claire Luana – Review by Amy Brennan

The Wish-Eater by Claire Luana
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author has this writing thing mastered, over and over again I am blown away by the descriptiveness of the story, no matter whether you’re reading about the world in which we are residing during the duration of the novel, or the characters that we have befriended along the way. This is the third novel that I have read by her and I really don’t think I will be able to ever get enough. Though I’m upset this is a stand-alone novel, it may very well be my favourite one thus far. I myself, have been struggling with secondary infertility for the last few years, and understand the doubt and insecurities that can cause. This really allowed me to connect with Elodie, who was an amazing character all on her own.

This Wish-Eater idea, is one that exists among all walks of life, perhaps not exactly, but we all want to believe that there’s an ‘easy’ way to make our wishes come true and hang on to that belief in hopes that one day we will stumble or work towards it. The adventure that Sebastian and Elodie embark on is one for the books (literally and figuratively,) and allow for them both to discover more of themselves than they even thought possible. The connections made within these pages and the relationships, along with the hardships are relatable, goose bump worthy, and put simply, addictive. I applaud this author and look forward to future adventures. Couldn’t recommend highly enough! P.S. The ‘From the Author’ section had me spilling tears all over the place. Thank goodness I read on a Kindle.
