review:
'Light From Uncommon Stars' by Ryka Aoki is a book about an unusual donut shop and an even more unusual violin teacher.

Katrina Nguyen a transgender violin player finds a new teacher in a park, but has no idea how strange her new teacher is. It turns out that her teacher, Shizuka Satomi, has a deal with hell and is looking for her last student to complete her contract. Add in a donut-shaped donut shop full of refugee space aliens, and you have an idea of the story. Maybe.

It's a pretty disjointed read with too many disparate story elements for me. It does all come together in the end, but I wanted most story and less trope gimmicks.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Macmillan-Tor/Forge and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
