Book Reviews For Lightscape

A Great Read!
This book is amazing. I love how detailed the connection and feelings are between Selkie and Aiden are. As I read it, i could feel everything they felt. It was so unreal but relatable all at the same time. I really liked how there were detailed flashback memories in the book that helped you really understand some of the characters better, gave them depth. Definitely a book that will make you want to neglect all other responsibilities until you finish...and then long for the next book to be released!

For Teens and Adults!
Lightscape is a beautifully written tale that combines fantasy, suspense, and love. Emily's characters pull you into the story immediately, while she weaves a story full of intrigue and suspense making it hard to put the book down. A wonderful book for both teenagers and adults. I can't wait to read the next book in the series!!

Readers' Favorite Review
Emily K. Karlewicz's Lightscape (The Lightscape Trilogy Book 1) is an engaging love story between a talented orphan and a handsome stranger. As emotions are flying high between the two and Aidan's mysterious life slowly reveals itself, the story's suspense feverishly builds up and it ends in a most unexpected way. This is the reason why Lightscape is a most compelling read. Selkie, one of the main protagonists in the story, is easy to like and love so that when she meets the love of her life, we find ourselves ardently wishing her all the best. Things are not that simple, unfortunately, and she could lose the one thing in life that she has been looking for. Karlewicz writes with a paintbrush and, as such, her creative writing style is both vivid and colorful. I can confidently say that it surely is worth your while to wait for the next installment of The Lightscape Trilogy.

Great read and very original!
This was a great book. From the moment I started reading I couldn't put it down until the end. Even then I had a desire to reread the whole thing!
The story and characters were all very original...nothing like what is out there now. From the very beginning you are drawn in to Selkie's world and you feel what she feels every step of the way. The detail in the book was amazing and never overdone. I am very excited for the second book to come out. I can only imagine this getting even better.

You won't put it down!
In Emily Karlewicz's debut novel, "Lightscape," Selkie and Aidan arrive on the scene with both heart-wrecking and exhilarating sincerity. Selkie, an Irish orphan, links up with Aidan, an Irish clansman and "Protector." The connection between the two is powerfully gripping, and your curiosity won't allow you to put the book down (I finished it in 23 hours!). Without giving away all the good stuff, I will say that "Lightscape" blends elements of magical and spiritual realms together in a completely unique way.
Karlewicz has complete control of her story, creativity, and style, and she is definitely one to watch out for! I'm eagerly awaiting book two and can't wait to see what happens to Selkie and Aidan next. Also…. What's up with Gabe?!

Can't wait for the next book!
Emily can use words to paint some amazing images. Her characters have depth and she is able to express the struggles that so many of us have without over dramatizing it. I am looking forward to the next book to see what happens!

This is a MUST Read!
I loved it so much that I bought it as a gift immediately after reading. The details in this book make you feel like you are right there with Selkie on her journey to discover who she really is. Selkie and Aidans love story is like no other and will surprise you along the way. I am eagerly waiting for the next book and I cannot wait to see what happens next!

Reading Lightscape gives all the feels of a really great mystical love story. Page after page I was intrigued by the characters and the images Emily portrayed. You feel the angst of Selkie, the freedom of Tabitha, and the strength of Aidan. I truly couldn’t put the book down, sometimes not even realizing I moved onto the next chapter or two. I wanted to know more, learn and discover right along with Selkie. Emily did a wonderful job weaving the story along, introducing details at all the right times, nothing forced or hurried. The book leaves you ready for the next, hopeful and persistent. I can only imagine how wonderful the next two installments will be and am waiting anxiously to see what unfolds next.
