Also that one illustration of Gu Yun with the monocle and shooting an arrow changed the trajectory of my life. Did you know you can flag iffy content?

Get started Close After finishing Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, I wanted to find my next danmei obsession, and after seeing the cover for Stars of Chaos, and hearing about how busy Priest has been over the years, I knew I wanted to sink my fingers into this first volume. I have this friend (true story) who told me she was going to get Purity Rings for her sons when they started middle school. She was serious. I will fill myself with the desert and the sky. I will be stone and stars, unchanging and strong and safe. The desert is complete; it is spare and alone, but perfect in its soltitude. I will be the desert.”

I feel a wave of bleak sadness, a desperate, gasping sort of terror. This new life coming to our house forces me to face my own impermanence in a way I try to avoid at all costs. I’m replaceable. Utterly, completely replaceable.Isis has been having dreams, of danger to come. With her pregnancy, Isis is afraid that she won't be able to guard Isadora of any imminent danger, so she decides (or rather, Isadora connives) to send her daughter halfway around the world, to her brother Sirus in San Diego, California.Chaos is an important part of many games and therefore the gaming industry is in love with the Chaos star. This symbol has become a renowned symbol in the industry for decades. My mother immediately knew something was wrong and came into the room to find me crying. She consoled me with a hug that soothed my hiccupping sobs, and a kiss that made my head stop hurting from the tears. You know what, I don't even care. It's the same thing with the whole basis of human spawns from two gods. There's no explanation for it. I'm just supposed to buy it.

It’s such a pleasant surprise when I invite my son to a family dinner and you tag along, too. My mother’s smile has even more teeth.

Okay, so I find a lot of books hidden in these tombs of forgotten books-but this book it hasn't been published yet. Why is an ARC in the Temple of the Forgotten? I must read it.They're crystal blue, a shade that shouldn't exist on the human body, I shade I immediately crave, a shade that makes my heart beat a little bit faster--almost as if I recognize it. I want to steal it, paint it, throw it into every room I ever decorate. It's the most perfect blue I've ever seen. Even from this distance his eyes are simply remarkable.” I'm a fan of mythologies, so I loved the concept of following the Egyptians gods/goddesses and their offspring, with the setting being the modern world. I love the idea of them existing/navigating our time period. It's amusing in many ways, but also gives a story so much more history, so much more expanse of time, taking the gods of old and bringing them through so many centuries to now. I love history & mythology so much! So I of course loved that about this book.

Does that last question sound terribly exciting, terrible dangerous, terribly intriguing? That's because, as hard as I tried to make it sound more...exciting, this book really wasn't exhilarating at all. The mystery took a side stage to the antics of Isadora and her teenaged rebellion, her exploration of San Diego and its beaches, her interior decorating skills, Isadora's enjoyment of her newfound freedom, which includes cutting her hair, dying it purple, and eating all the sugar she can stomach, and trying not to fall in love with Ry. I ran out of that horrible room. For the first time in my life I did understand. All of the stories, the histories I’d been raised on? I had no part in them. My parents brought me into the world to die. They didn’t love me enough to keep me forever—they didn’t even pretend like they did. My entire childhood of warmth and love was a drawing in the sand—impermanent and fragile and gone in a breath of wind. Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. My favorite part was the plot – or at least the idea behind the plot. I have never been a fan of history – but the Egyptians have always fascinated me. I have never pictured a world where the Gods are still living, have children, and deal with things like sibling rivalry and redecorating bedrooms. This idea intrigued me, so I would have liked to see more history and myth play into the story. At the beginning of each chapter, there was a snippet that seemed to be a history of the Gods themselves, but sometimes Isadora would appear in them, unnamed, and that confused me. But, like I said, I have never been a big fan of history, thus I know relatively little about Egyptian culture. So while they confused me, that isn’t necessarily a representative judge of quality. Thus the 8 pointed arrows do not only indicate the 8 possible directions but it symbolizes the endless possibilities or directions that one can take in his life.Book 1 felt more like the introduction for the worldbuilding and characters, i love Chang Geng and Gu Yun (our 2 main characters) at the first Introduction but the STEAMPUNK mixed with old Chinese culture really stole the show like WOW 😍 i expected to see more romance tho but i guess i will get it in the next book I also enjoyed that the plot centers around courtly intrigue and military politics instead of the Martial world like in other Danmei's I've read. Don't get me wrong I love those stories as well but this was a nice change of pace. And while the violet gold does lend a bit of a steam punk fantasy level it wasn't over the top which was nice. First, every single chapter starts off with a description of Isadora's dream that night and then a 2 paragraph "info dump" about some Egyptian mythology. I personally never like reading about dreams in books. They're boring and ultimately I just don't care. I didn't even need to read the dreams to understand the plot. I get that she's having nightmares and that they're trying to tell her something bad is happening.. I don't need to read 50 dreams to understand that. And then the history lessons just felt like filler bits to remind us that we were reading a mythology book and not a contemporary romance. I didn't feel like the bits of history actually contributed to the plot at all. There are a few relevant points, but ultimately, it didn't feel that important and the relevant ones could have been presented in a much better way. Are you lecturing me again, Orion? Is that what this is?' ... 'I would never dream of lecturing you. I just thought it was interesting to think about.' I drew a straightforward geographical quadrant (which often has arrows, too!) – N, S, E, W – and then added another four directions and that was that – eight arrows representing all possibilities, one arrow representing the single, certain road of Law. I have since been told to my face that it is an "ancient symbol of Chaos".
