Welcome to Litsy!

I stayed up way too late finishing this book. It was really good. Fast paced with a few interesting twists at the end. I will definitely read the sequel when it comes out in a couple months.

A fantastical story of vengeance and magic with a dearth if likable characters. There is a deadly quest and by the end, I just didn‘t care.

I wasn't expecting much from this one, but I actually really enjoyed it. Survival magic with a bit of a twist.

This Fantasy novel focused on humans at a school in the sky who can use magic as long as they have enough “credits” stored in a talisman of sorts. There is classism and power struggles between those who live in the sky and those who live on the ground. There were interesting creatures and I loved how the author played with the idea of villains and heroes and the idea of revenge. Great ending as we wait for the next installment! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I mean, yeah I bought it for my son but who could resist reading about a group of kids at a school for wizards who find themselves lost in the mountains stalked by an creature like nothing they ever encountered. Danger & secrets abound. Fascinating magic system in which magic can be refilled & stored, where casting a spell costs a specific number of Ockley‘s. The story delves into class, privilege & more in some interesting ways. Solid YA fantasy.

Went to pick up the tagged book, the latest by one of my son‘s favorite authors, and decided it only made sense to pursue the sale shelves while at the bookstore and oops, I found one for me at a great price. Yay! And also, I have no idea how I haven‘t read The Haunting of Hill House before, but i can now remedy that oversight.
