This book had me curious from the beginning. Its story is unique compared to others that I have read.

I was consistently wondering about the MC, trying to understand her and found the pacing of the story to be quite good.

It is written well and I am sure the story unfolds in a way I cannot fathom. Unfortunately I could not finish it. Not because of anything bad to do with the story or the writing but because I have aphantasia (an inability to imagine images). The reason this was a problem for me is that I rely heavily on dialogue to gain an understanding of what’s happening in a story and this book (up to where I read which was chapter 8) is descriptive with little dialogue.


This is no slur on the story, writing or author. It’s purely a difficulty I face with reading. Having said that I am fully invested in the story and so if or when an audiobook is released I intend to give it another try.

I really enjoyed this, it does a great job in creating that dark fantasy and was hooked from the first page. The characters worked well in this setting and thoroughly enjoyed the concept and how they were used. K.S. Sanral has a strong writing style and am excited for more, as this had that feel that I was wanting in the genre.

I really enjoyed this book. The world building was wonderful and I really thought the character development was written really well. I’m hoping that there is a follow along to go with it.!

The Two Suns was such a refreshing and exciting read! What really stood out to me was the main character. She’s unapologetically a villain, and this isn’t a redemption story. That twist alone made the book feel unique and unpredictable.

The story moves at a fast pace, keeping me hooked from the beginning. I loved the setting of the two magical academies, two worlds, one “good” and one “evil” which gave the book a classic wizarding-school feel but with its own dark, original spin. The magic system felt very wizardy and familiar, but the execution and tone gave it a fresh edge.

The protagonist is unlike any I’ve read before: bold, complex, and completely different from the typical hero or antihero you might expect. That made the book stand out in a genre that can sometimes feel repetitive.

Overall, If you enjoy fast-paced fantasy with a unique perspective, morally grey characters, and a touch of dark academia vibes, The Two Suns is well worth picking up!

A daring story following a strong, yet stubborn young girl who is flung into a whole new type of world.

K.S. Sanral delivers a well-rounded story with a compelling arc that kept me engaged from start to finish. The female main character (FMC) is unsettling right from the beginning—but not in a bad way. There’s an eerie undercurrent to her presence that grows more magnetic as the story unfolds. Her evolution into the villain isn’t exactly surprising, but the buildup is done in a way that’s genuinely enticing and layered, making her descent both believable and chilling.

The male main characters (MMCs) offer a nice contrast—naive, endearing, and full of hope. I found myself rooting for them, wishing they could pull the FMC back from the edge. While it’s clear they had an impact on her journey, I was left wanting a deeper exploration of their role in her possible redemption. A more developed redemption arc could have added more emotional weight to the ending.

Overall, The Two Suns is a unique and well-constructed story. It didn’t completely land for me emotionally, but I appreciated the bold character choices and the slow unraveling of moral boundaries.
