I was born and raised in Sri Lanka, speaking Sinhalese. English is my second language and I’m fluent in German, as well. Switzerland is my current home, where I live with my husband, daughter, and all my fictional friends. My best friends are fellow authors because they understand my passion for the written word, The Hunger Games, and power-wielding female characters in general.
I love characters with a bit of humor and a little dorkiness, so I can giggle while reading. Basically, if it has anything to do with books, I’m interested in it. I happily refer to myself as a nerd who has an extensive library of paperbacks.

Fight for Dawn: The Dawn Trilogy Book 2 by Komali da Silva is the follow up to Angels Dawn, and Dawn knows she should have known better. Dawn wanted her life to go back to normal after the loss of her best friend Nate, but that is not going to happen. Everywhere Dawn looks now after having grieved her loss, she sees Nate and, as if that was not enough, she meets Gabe and instantly she feels an attraction to the new guy. It is almost enough to make her forget about the demons that are out to threaten her life and the life of everyone around her.
I didn't read the first book in this series but after reading this one, I plan on going back to read the first and then eagerly await the third book. Not only is this a great and involved YA story, but the paranormal parts hit all of the right spots. I almost instantly connected with Dawn and could feel the weight of all of the issues that she is dealing with. Loss hurts and heartbreak hurts even more; if you combine that with having to battle demons and what comes with that, it is just too much to imagine going through. This book is deeply emotional and if you don't have some tissues you are going to end up wiping your tears on your sleeve. Every page reveals something new with this book and Komali da Silva has a way of writing that just makes everything jump right off the page in full technicolor for your brain. Truly an amazing book and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys paranormal and YA.
