The Mad Apprentice
The Mad Apprentice: The Forbidden Library: | Django Wexler
The dark and thrilling sequel to the book Kirkus called, "Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland, and Inkheart all rolled into one" When Alice's mysterious Uncle Geryon sends her to help capture a rogue apprentice--a boy who has the same ability Alice has to Read himself into stories--she knows to expect a wild and unpredictable trip. But even though Alice has visited the magical realms inside libraries before, this adventure is far more dangerous. Because Torment, the magic creature holding this library together, has gone mad. But he might also have information about Alice's missing father.

I have to take a break from The Wangs vs. the World. I‘m in desperate need of a light, fun read after A Gentleman in Moscow. If you haven‘t checked out this series before I definitely recommend it! Even though it‘s middle grade.

Bradleygirl I really got into these! Bought the last one in the series bc the library was too slow. 6y

jfalkens @TricksyTails I've been trying to read The Eye of the World and I've been sick the last few days. The big books take longer and slumps and life happen. You just have to tell yourself next month will be better xxxx 6y
TricksyTails That book was slow for me in the beginning, too. I hope you're feeling better! 🤗 Thanks for the support! Next month *has* to be better becaaaaaause #EPICBUDDYREAD !!! Ya-e-yaaaa! 😆 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails thank you 😊 I'm feeling a bit better but still trying to rest a lot. But at least I'm feeling well enough to read ☺ I can't wait for #NTOTWBUDDYREAD next month 😀 6y
TricksyTails Eat all the pie and all the stuffing! Dr. TricksyTails' cure-all remedy! 😜 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails lol no pie tomorrow, my brother-in-law's hosting and we're having brownies instead of pie 😫 6y
TricksyTails No pie?? 😳 I shall have pie for the both of us!! 🐷😆 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails unfortunately my sister-in-law doesn't like pie 😫😔 you'll have to enjoy it extra for me 😊 6y
TricksyTails Not like pie? How? Why? 😟I'll definitely eat for the both of us! Eat lots of ice cream with the brownies to make up for no pie. Please don't even tell me there won't be ice cream. 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails I'm not sure how, she's very picky for sure. Yay 😊 There better at least be ice cream 😂 but it wasn't on the menu so probably not 😕😔 6y
TricksyTails No ice cream?! That's it. You're coming over here for dinner! 😉 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails probably better conversation 😂 no one reads either 😨 6y
TricksyTails Nooooo!! I'm all too familiar with those kinds of gatherings. Think you'll be able to sneak into a corner and read? 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails probably not, reading is frowned upon at get-togethers 😔 I'll probably end up playing with my nephew and niece while everyone watchs the game. 6y
brilliantglow Ohhh I really enjoyed The Forbidden Library but I haven't read the rest of the series yet. 6y
jfalkens @brilliantglow it's good so far 😊 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails it's one of those "it's ok to pull out your phone but how dare you pull out a book and be anti-social " families ? 6y
TricksyTails Maybe you can play the sick card and rest somewhere with a book! I hope it's fun regardless!! 🤗 6y
TricksyTails Hahaha I am very familiar with those types too! Perfect! You can read on your phone!! 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails doubtful since my nephew gave it to me 😂 thank you I hope so too 😊 and I hope you have a wonderful pie-filled time 😊🎂(cake was the closest emoji to pie) 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails lol I bet that'd work 😂 6y
TricksyTails Thank you! Hope you have a wonderful time! I'll keep my fingers crossed that there will be ice cream for you!🤗♥️ 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails thank you 😊 I'll have to let you know after ☺ 6y
TricksyTails Hahaha you must!!!😂 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails we ended up having pecan cheesecake 6y
TricksyTails 😂 Heyyyyyy that's not too bad!! Close enough to pie! Was it good? Did you sneak in some reading? 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails it was good but too sweet. Lol no I played with my nephew and niece while everyone watched the game and then we played JackBox 6y
TricksyTails 😂 Hahaha Who's hosting next year? Hope it's someone who adores pie. 6y
jfalkens @TricksyTails lol probably still them 😂 6y
TricksyTails Dang it! 😂 6y

Enjoying this creepy grim book-fantasy, though as it's the sequel it's a bit less interesting than the first.
Also that is a great alias. #YA #fantasylibraries

The plot thickens (insert evil laugh in your choice). There's definitely a strong good versus evil vibe, with some heavy shades of grey. This is the second in the series and it's considerably darker than the first book. I liked this one more than the first, despite the introduction of a lot of new characters. I get the impression they might be important later.
