"Award-winning YA author Holly Black has created an imaginary masterpiece yet again with her first foray into adult fantasy, narrated with perfection by Sara Amini."—AudioFile (Earphones Award Winner)
In the vein of Erin Morgenstern, #1 NYT bestselling author Holly Black’s stunning new audiobook is a dark fantasy of betrayals and cabals with a dissolute thief of shadows at the center of it all.
Charlie Hall has never found a lock she couldn’t pick, a book she couldn’t steal, or a bad decision she wouldn’t make.
She's spent half her life working for gloamists, magicians who manipulate shadows to peer into locked rooms, strangle people in their beds, or worse. Gloamists guard their secrets greedily, creating an underground economy of grimoires. And to rob their fellow magicians, they need Charlie Hall.
Now, she’s trying to distance herself from past mistakes, but getting out isn’t easy. Bartending at a dive, she’s still entirely too close to the corrupt underbelly of the Berkshires. Not to mention that her sister Posey is desperate for magic, and that Charlie's shadowless, and possibly soulless, boyfriend has been hiding things from her. When a terrible figure from her past returns, Charlie descends into a maelstrom of murder and lies.
Determined to survive, she’s up against a cast of doppelgangers, mercurial billionaires, gloamists, and the people she loves best in the world—all trying to steal a secret that will give them vast and terrible power
"Dark, strange, thick with mystery and twists—a story so believable in its magic, you'll be keeping one eye on your shadow as you turn the pages."—Leigh Bardugo, New York Times bestselling author of Ninth House
“Heart, soul, and a bit of kink—The Book of Night is smart, decadent fun.”—Kelly Link, Pulitzer Prize Finalist

It’s dark, smart, and relatable on many levels.
This story highlights societal issues like privilege, poverty, the sexualization of women, corruption in government entities, and other systemic problems. It also deals with psychology, particularly the idea of the shadow self. Charlie’s journey shows us that you don’t have to have tons of money or be someone big in order to be a badass and do great things.
I liked how the story jumped between perspectives, the past, and the present—telling two stories that eventually converge.
I didn't feel particularly attached to any of the characters, but they all felt believable.
A story about dark magic and a black market of grimoires

the story is really slow and there's too much gloomy inner dialogue.

The characters were written so beautifully and real, you really get attached to them and their story. I was so excited for this to be her first adult book, it was so interesting and I look forward to more books from Holly Black or narrations from Sara Amini!

If you’re just looking for fantasy/supernatural, then this would work for you but I personally purchased this because I was expecting some sort of love story and more of an adventure to do chores along with. It was hard not to be bored / skip forward.
