REVIEW:

The minute I started this book I was immediately captured by the characters. Being a dual POV we get to see both Claire and Peter’s perspectives throughout the whole book. Normally this bothers me, however in this story, I was so locked in that I loved both of them so much the moment I met them. Kara Swanson did a wonderful job. 

This book is so detailed and there are so many things that tie together that you would have never thought. You never know who to trust but you always know who to love. It's a love/hate relationship with every character, good or bad. 

Peter is so fun but he does drive me crazy sometimes because he is super self-centered and doesn't really think. And then there is Claire, who thinks too much. She is super sweet but she is afraid of a lot of things because of trauma in her past. Through all the pain and heartache, there is love and hope.

Dust is such a beautiful story of love, trust, faith and light about the boy who never wanted to grow up and the girl who grew up too fast. After I finished it I was so in awe from how good this was and wanted to start the next book immediately. Such a great story, I would definitely read it again and again and again. 

WARNINGS:

One passionate kiss // Traumatic backstories 

TAKEAWAYS:

One of my favorite things about this book is that no matter how much pain Peter and Claire were in, the themes of the light that always outshined the darkness was so bright and beautiful it had me crying right with the characters. I thought it was so cool that Peter and Claire both helped each other grow in their own ways. What a fascinating story!
