Bright Midnights
The Limerent Series Book 2
by LS Delorme

Amelie has always been different.

Most high school students find life challenging, but 17-year old Amelie has a lot more to contend with than typical teenage angst. Ever since she turned 11, others have been irresistibly drawn to her—with tragic consequences. Her only escape is at night when she flies to different times and places through her “dreams”. Her life begins to change when, on one of her flights, she meets Clovis, an alluring and mysterious young man who hides a secret.

As Amelie finds herself increasingly drawn to him, she learns his story, how it intertwines with her own and finally discovers how to live her life in the real world. Until her own secrets are revealed to the wrong people and that world turns upside down.

Bright Midnights is the second in the Limerent Series and continues in the thought-provoking and beautiful style of the first as it considers different dimensions, different ways of looking at the world, and the transcendental power of love.

5 out of 5 fairies

Delorme does an amazing job drawing you in right away, weaving in the supernatural right alongside vivid descriptions of our world. No spoilers, but I will admit, I wasn’t expecting the prologue to be so dark, but it really sets the scene for everything that follows. My heart went out to Amelie immediately, everything she has to deal with, from her family to unwanted attention from adults, was absolutely heartbreaking. The story itself has excellent pacing, and it feels like there’s an invisible thread pulling you along from page to page. It was honestly frustrating each time I had to set the book down to deal with real life, because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. This was honestly the perfect blend of dark real life, and hope that was found in Amelie’s dreams. Definitely recommend!
