"Talent without self-discipline is just about worthless. October has both." -Mercedes Lackey

I love [City of Day]! It was such a unique world and I couldn't stop thinking about it. As soon as I finished the story I was ready for the sequel! The tone is very reminiscent of Howl's Moving Castle, both the book and the movie, and Stardust. October K Santerelli jumped onto my must-buy list with this.

I initially thought [City of Day] was going to be a story about surviving a city infested with murderous creatures that only stalk the night. What I got to read instead was an adventure where two richly developed protagonists scrambled their way through a society of daytime life while waiting for the inevitable dusk and its monstrous perils. Well worth your time!

[City of Day] starts off fast and keeps you hanging on until the end. The worldbuilding is fantastic, and the backstories are giving in little drops of relevant bites rather than info dumping all at once, which helps keep the story moving forward. Overall, great book and I can’t wait to see what happens in book 2!

[Book of the Witch's Son] is a gem in coming of age fantasy!

This book is a collection of novellas about Jeth during different times in a longer-than-average life. He's highly relatable - especially if you've ever had those moments where you questioned where you belonged. October K Santerelli is always welcome on my shelf!

What can I say? [City of Day] hit every marker I wanted in a read. Imaginative, well-developed, creative, superbly written, and it took me on an adventure I'm not soon to forget. I HIGHLY recommend you read this. You will not regret it one bit because as I said, from the first page, you will go on a journey that will make you want to return again and again.

I flew through [City of Day]!

It's a multilayered tale about a cursed city, the secrets those in power kill and die to protect, and the unlikely heroes fighting to right the wrongs of the past. I can still see, feel, and smell Astera, and the vaim, the malicious spirits who control the city at night, will haunt the shadows of your mind long after you close the book.
