pickWhen I first started reading, I did not know if I would like this book. I was a little confused on the world and magic system. However, once I got about 80 pages in, things started making more sense and the story picked up. After that I was hooked.

“Blood Over Bright Haven” is a heavy yet timely read for the world that we currently live in. Wang does a great job writing flawed and morally gray characters with impressive character arcs by the end of the novel. Be warned as this book contains serious themes including but not limited to racism, sexism, slavery, and genocide.
pickThe 9th volume so I‘m not sure what to say about the story without spoiling it.
But who need family when they treat you like this?
I have thought about rereading all the volumes since it‘s a long time since I started on volume one
pickI love a good fantasy that feels like historical fiction. This uses the orphan girl turned heroine trope. The world building is intricate. I loved how each chapter began with a rhyme. However, this book cannot stand alone; it ends on a cliffhanger making the second book in the duology an must.
Plugging along through BLACK SUN RISING with my favourite schnauzer. It‘s not bad, but I haven‘t become invested in the characters or the story, so it‘s slower going than I want right now. (It probably doesn‘t help that I still can‘t stop thinking about THE TOMB OF DRAGONS by Katherine Addison.) One of the LT reviews said things click into place about 200 pages in, though, and I‘m ALMOST there. Hopefully that does it for me.
pickThis is a must read! It‘s very timely and filled with echoes of the world we‘re living in today.
I finished Katherine Addison‘s forthcoming novel last night and now I‘m BEREFT. Gonna try to drown my sorrows in Duffy snuggles and early-90s dark fantasy. C.S. Friedman is one of those authors I‘ve always been AWARE of but never quite managed to read, so it‘s about time I gave her work a try. It‘s off to a promising start.
