Crown of Midnight
The second book in this series. Though from the set I bought it shows it as the third. But if you read them in the right or recommended order they are suppose to be even better. So that is what I will be doing. Next will be Heir of Fire then The Assassin's Blade after. Then we will see....

pick4.5 ⭐This book was adorable. It‘s exactly what you think you‘re going to get when you see the cover and read the blurb. Our main character is a girl who loves her local community center. So much so that she‘s leading a charge for an alternative prom. It‘s not that she has anything against prom itself, it‘s how much money people spend on prom. Upwards of $1000. She feels that money could be better put to use at the community center.
pickThis was an enemies to possibly lovers to enemies book. She‘s a witch and he‘s a witch hunter. They both are using the other for their goals.
This is a duology, so I definitely plan to pick up the next book.
If pushed harder . . . how far would I go? Stephen had found that out.
Hopefully I‘d never have to know my own limits.

pickTook me a while but I read this graphic novel. It is an easy read but my mind has been too preoccupied lately.
This is the second volume of the Wires and Nerve duo. The first half was okay but the second half was more interesting.
3.5⭐️
panI have read 1 other book by this author (Five Total Strangers). I gave that one a 1 star for the exact reason I gave this one 2 stars. The ending. There is just absolutely no explanation to the ending. Exactly what happened in the other book. What was the motive? Also, I just don't like in books when it is constantly referring back to something else that happened. It was just too much. Literally every other page. It was getting repetitive.

I learned a new word: petrichor - the scent after newly-fallen rain.
Upto chapter 16 and really enjoying this one. A sort of 'You Got Mail', but with a wardrobe that delivers letters instead of e-mail.
so-soFirst time reading The Outsiders and I‘m conflicted. At times, the fact that Hinton was 14 (or 15 depending on your sources) when she wrote the original draft works to its advantage.
At other times, Hinton‘s lack of experience is evident and it pulled me from the story in a big way.
Still, I liked it for the most part. I do question, though, that if it hadn‘t basically made the YA genre would it be as pertinent and beloved today?
Went for a walk along Brighton jetty and the resident seal was having a snooze:)
