"Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence Cards, but the last, and most important one remains to be found: The Twin Alders. If they are going to find it before the Solstice and cure the kingdom of the dark magic infecting it, they will need to journey beyond the dangerous mist-cloaked forest that surrounds their kingdom. And the only one who can lead them there is the monster that shares Elspeth's head: The Nightmare. And he's not eager to share any longer"--

I highly recommend this duology. It was original and fast paced with likable characters. I can definitely say I haven‘t read anything like this before. ❤️

I really enjoyed this duology; the fact that it‘s a complete duology was a big factor in its favor. While I definitely preferred the first book, overall it had a satisfying arc. A really good combination of gloomy, gothic vibes, a truly unique magic system (although I have some questions about the total # of Providence Cards), engaging action scenes, and a swoony romance.

I did finish my #Bookspin for March, but didn‘t get to my #Doublespin. I came very close to hitting a bingo, but as usual my mood reading distracted me from focusing on that. I did read 10 total books in March, and I have a couple that I am almost done with to get April off to a good start. Overall, I did a good job of balancing reading books from my TBR and those new releases that pull me in from Libby.

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Fantastic month!! 4w

Switching points of view can be risky, but here it worked. Loved how things concluded.

An appropriately twisty ending to this duology. I‘m a huge fan of the magic system in this world. Honestly, I‘m a fan of all of it. Props to the author for coming up with all those creepy rhymes said by the nightmare.

Highly recommend to anyone interested a darker fantasy story.

February #doublespin complete! @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2mo

vivastory What did you think of Dune 2? 2mo
Kimberlone @vivastory amazing adaptation! I think it did a great job of translating the very complex Bene Gesserit/messiah stuff from the book. The visuals were incredible. I‘ll be curious how the series moves forward, though. I‘ve only read Dune but I‘ve spent enough time on Wikipedia to know things get real nuts in the second book. 2mo
vivastory I think that it's a safe bet that he will get the third film that he has planned. I thought it was as good as the first one & although I read book 1 years ago & was happy stopping there, but I am now seriously contemplating continuing. I'm thinking of seeing it again before it leaves, which I very very rarely do. I'm glad that you liked it. 2mo
Kimberlone @vivastory I only saw part one at home on streaming…seeing part 2 in theaters really made the experience exceptional. 2mo

A lazy Saturday afternoon on the couch. I now know to time my reading with his midday nap.

This book has me hooked! I have no idea what is coming next.

I feel so sorry for the Nightmare, even though he had his happy ending.🥺 This duology is so much worth reading, I loved it. It is now one of my favorite fantasy duology.

„In the wood, the spindle is slight. A delicate tree against hail, wind, and might. But how the tree carries, and how the roots dig. She weathers all storms, no matter their bite.“

I am so invested in this book right now.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Solid ending to a gothic fantasy. No spoilers, but I like that this story dared to go darker with our MCs where most stories wouldn‘t. The cliffhanger from book 1 was not quickly resolved and at first I was thrown. But once I adjusted to this “new character” I really enjoyed the storytelling. Had wanted to finish this yesterday🙄 normally a day doesn‘t make much of a difference, but this one did lol so, 2024 reading list it is!

What a beautiful book — and an amazing duology. Magic, ancient and bitter and harsh; Blunder, a land founded in error and imbalance; love and hate and all the shattered things that lie between. I thought the book (both books) were written in strong, compelling language, with vivid world building and characters that just became more and more vibrant and interesting. A whole history bound up and revealed, piece by piece until it all came together.

GREAT sequel to One Dark Window 🤌. I gave ODW three stars, but this is a 4-4.5 for me. This duology is complex without being overly confusing, and does something new for me -- both stories have a romance element, and I didn't buy into ODW's. I preferred TTC's main lovers & they made me care a lot more about this world. The fantastic elements are just top tier, this world is so dark and creepy, and the story is so satisfying. Lots of love from me!

Spent the day at the cancer center with my mom. Came home to a quiet house & book mail that I‘m using as an escape from heartache. I‘ve been looking so forward to the 2nd book in this series. So today it gets my thankfulness! And also the unintended color coordination with a much needed glass of wine.

Ruthiella Glad reading is able to solace you somewhat. Wishing you and your mom the best. ❤️ 6mo
