Cover Reveal: An Arrow to the Moon by Emily X.R. Pan

Emily X.R. Pan is back, and her latest book is absolutely incandescent! I don’t think I can say enough good things about this book! Star-crossed lovers, heady romance, magic – seriously, An Arrow to the Moon is so incredible, as soon as I finished, I wished I could wipe my memory and read it again for the first time. This is one of those books that will sweep you up in its glorious pages and not put you down until the final page! Truly, An Arrow to the Moon felt like a formative experience, and it gave me the same feeling I got reading Strange the Dreamer for the first time – that soaring sensation of an all-encompassing story and you just know you’ll never forget reading. I can’t wait for this book to sit beside Emily’s equally gorgeous first book, The Astonishing Color of After, and I’ll leave you now with that thought and this stunning cover! 

An Arrow to the Moon

by Emily X.R. Pan

Hunter Yee has perfect aim with a bow and arrow, but all else in his life veers from the intended path. The only things keeping him from running away are his little brother, his connection with the wind, and now this strange girl at his new school. He’s determined to escape the noose tightening around his wretched family in punishment for their past mistakes…but time is running out.

Luna Chang feels unmoored and overwhelmed by her parents’ expectations. It’s the last year of high school and graduation looms ahead, bringing with it the dreaded question of her future. The path forward is paved and waiting. When she begins to break the rules, she finds her life upended by a boy she can’t stop thinking about, and the curious arrival of fireflies who are much more than they appear.

As Hunter and Luna navigate their families’ enmity and secrets, and as everything around them begins to fall apart, they must figure out who they are meant to become and what they are fated to do.
