As Dust Dances eBook Samantha Young

I was happy to see a new book by S Young. Loved the Dublin St series so much, I have re-read some more than once.

This book is...a train wreck. At first, I was drawn in by the young heroine busking on the streets of a Scottish city to make enough to feed herself, and get by being homeless. But then as details began to emerge about the heroine...I absolutely lost sympathy for her.

She's already been a musical star. She's actually wealthy--fabulously wealthy. Yet she's living homeless in a foreign country, courting starvation, rape and the other disasters that await homeless kids.

So, she must be running from the law, right? Erm, nope. She's just ...heck, I don't know. All I know is, at this point I lost all sympathy. The author did not give me any reason to feel compassion or curiosity for why she is doing this to herself.

Hero: Completely uninteresting. Colorless. A guy in a suit, who wants to make money. Uh, yeah? What's different about him? What's even a tiny bit attractive about him?

Didn't finish.

As Dust Dances eBook Samantha Young Reviews

Maybe 3.5 stars. This is a really hard review for me to write. I have loved every other book I've read by Samantha Young. I mean, couldn't put it down, laughed, cried, gushed over to everyone everywhere as I read it and after I finished it. And it wasn't that it wasn't a good story. It had a lot of great things about it. While there was the end that definitely had me crying in a way that only this author can make me cry. I think that these were characters that maybe I just didn't connect with? I also was never quite sure how these characters connected to the characters in the first book, which I loved. The reason that probably bothered me is that as I read each book in the On Dublin Street series, I had an idea who that character was, or I got to see the characters that I'd already met and fit them into the story. I also don't feel like maybe there was the humor in this one that I feel was in the other books?

Honestly, it wasn't a bad book. It just wasn't that great for me. However, I'll still be eagerly awaiting the next book from this author, I have no doubt in my mind about that.
Heartbreak, hope, hurt, and healing. As Dust Dances was rife with a litany of emotions, those four being at the top of that list. After reading the blurb, I knew this book was going to be uniquely spectacular, and I was not mistaken. Samantha Young has consistently blown me away with her stories, and this one reinforced how special a storyteller she is.

My heart broke for Skylar from the off. Regardless of what had led her to a life of homelessness, her life was difficult. Learning about how she had arrived at that point was a different kind of devastating. Skylar’s story shone a light on the side of fame we like to pretend doesn’t exist in horrifying relief. Ms. Young gave us a small glimpse of what it might be like to not have a modicum of privacy and just how arduous that life would be, how deeply it would scar you, and how costly the complete lack of privacy would be.

I loved Skylar and Killian’s connection; it went beyond physical chemistry into something transcendent. From the moment Skylar let her guard down an inch I could feel how important their bond would be. Though neither of them wanted to admit it, they were both searching for something to fix their broken pieces and when he found her, saved her, cared for her at her weakest point you could almost feel their souls call out to one another as if they recognized each other and knew they were destined. The music they made together only further strengthened that feeling for me and I was in love with how deeply they were both connected to each other and their music.

Family was a huge theme in As Dust Dances. I adored how Ms. Young demonstrated time and again that family is less about sharing DNA with a person and more about finding the people who love you, care for you, support you regardless of what you can give to them. There is a purity in the love of family that isn’t found in any other kind of relationship and the familial relationships, the ones built on those foundations of love, care, and support, in this book were beautifully illustrated.

As Dust Dances is the second book in Samantha Young’s Play On series. These books are complete standalones and do not need to be read in order. As Dust Dances is written in first-person perspective, narrated by Skylar.

Samantha Young showed not only her storytelling chops but also her lyrical skills in this novel. While the storytelling in As Dust Dances was fabulous, I was utterly enamored with the lyrics she wrote. They were raw and provocative and, even without melody, I could feel how profoundly emotional the songs would be.
