Two teens Alexander and Nadia follow Kate, a reporter, into a mysterious country in the Himalayas and run into trouble when a mafia-like group steal the sacred golden dragon. Adventure and mysticism ensue after Nadia & other girls from the kingdom are kidnapped and Alexander, a prince, & a monk must save them and the dragon. A community of yetis play their part as well. This is a jam-packed YA novel I enjoyed very much. ⬇️

Texreader This is book 2 in a trilogy but I was ok reading this one first. Book 3 is set in Africa so I‘ll plan to read it next year. #authoramonth #readingasia2021 @Soubhiville @BarbaraBB @Librarybelle (edited) 3y

“a human life was more important *that* all the gold in the world.” Arg! Almost to the end of the book and there‘s a typo. Why does this always happen? It‘s like the proofreader gets tired.

I just started this one tonight for #authoramonth and my myriad other reading challenges. It‘s set in the Himalayas so it works for #readingasia2021 and because it‘s crazy cold and snowy, #wintergames #mistletoemaniacs. @Soubhiville @Clwojick @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

Super late for #twofortuesday but Littens are so forgiving I figured I‘d play anyway. Thanks @TheSpineView for the tag!

1) No but I‘m close! Just letters A, K, and Q for #litsyatoz and finishing my monthly reads for #authoramonth and #foodandlit. I won‘t finish #readingasia2021 but I‘m still plugging away anyway because I love the challenge.

2) Tagged, and fortunately it goes toward 3 of my challenges!

TheSpineView You're welcome and you can play any day!👍😊🤩 3y

My December tbr (hoping to squeeze in both group reads) for #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs

#Earlybirdpoints = 26

The first two books are for #authoramonth and #foodandlit and the first book is also for #litsyatoz #letterK

My December is going to be tough going since my big trial was moved from this week to December 6. 🙁 But I‘m still going to do my best because it‘s just so much fun!!

I bought this last month but during a sad time so I had laid it down and forgot about it. Although it‘s set in an imaginary country in the Himalayas, which reviews say are beautifully described in the book, I may count it for #Bhutan since the Himalayas run through that country. We will see... once I read it to see if that‘s a somewhat legit substitute. #readingasia2021

Started teaching and fell down a rabbit hole. Taking the time to get back to myself and read.
