Synopsis: Brenik has always been envious of his twin sister, Bray. Growing up as fairy-like creatures, known as bats, everything came easier to Bray. While Brenik spent his time in her shadows, never feeling he was enough. After escaping their world of Laith, and living on Earth for ten years, Brenik attempts to strike a deal with the Stone of Desire to become human. Though true humanity is not an option, he will accept the curse that will alter him to get as close as he can.
Living in a tree trunk for the past year hasn’t been easy for Bray, more so after her brother disappears again. When a human boy and his brother, Wes, find her, a new friendship is struck. Through Wes, Bray learns there can be more to life than waiting within a tree. But worrying over where Brenik has vanished to always remains in the back of her mind.
When Bray reunites with Brenik, she realizes she must help him break the curse after she discovers the need for blood is beginning to overpower him. The curse not only damages those who get close to Brenik, but it could also destroy whatever is blooming between Bray and Wes.

My Review: This new world that Robinson has created is one of a kind. The story of Brenik and Bray is just so fantastic that I could not put it down. The sibling rivalry in this title was done so well!! I can tell you that from personal experience! The author drew me in from the very start to the very last page. This is a new to me author but after this book she will be an auto buy author! Robinson did so well giving us this one of a kind story with a new voice. She did a great job giving this a young adult/new adult feel for us readers who wish to escape our daily lives! The start of this one started off so well and it made you care about the characters and their plight.
With humor, epic ness, and so much sadness this author kicks it out of the park!
Clouded By Envy is ONE OF MY TOP 5 FAVORITE BOOKS!!! Back two years ago, I had the privilege of reading it when It was first written. I fell in love with the story of Brenik and Bray!!! To see this book getting published brings tears to my eyes! This is truly the most unique fantasy story, and it is full of heart.~ Donna (BookDragonGirl)
Clouded by Envy is unlike anything I’ve read before. It takes sibling rivalry to a whole new level! I loved the 90s vibes. As with all of Candace Robinson’s novels, the characters were weird and quirky and sweet all at the same time. Definitely an entertaining read! ~ Vicki
