Starting a new book and hoping it will motivate me to keep going on my reading journey!
Starting a new book and hoping it will motivate me to keep going on my reading journey!
so-soThis book was a little slow to start but the last 100 pages were pretty good. I‘m going to read the next one in the series and hope it‘s got more going on 😂
so-soIn June and July, I've been really finding my stride with bails - and the tagged is my lowest rated finished book. I'm not sure what it says about me, but I'm proud of and decided to celebrate them this time 🙃 🫣
💀The Fraud
💀The Earth Transformed
💀The Extinction of Irena Rey
💀The Wolf and the Woodsman
Some I may come back to and try again (some book hangovers are real!) and some... Not so much 😆💩
At any rate, circled books I did enjoy!
pickI know some on GR felt this one was slower than the first, but I think that worked in its favor. Daine is gaining powers, learning her magic. If it were rushed it would feel cheap. Daine & Numair uncover a plot that threatens not just the throne, but all of Tortall. When Daine and Numair separate, and a magic barrier soon makes that separation against their will, Daine must work with the People in ways she hasn‘t before. Will they be in time?
pickI mentioned to my friend that I needed a palette cleanser after finishing this last semester. She got so excited and told me all about this series she had read and loved as a young girl. When someone‘s eyes light up when discussing a book, you read that book. I am SO glad I did. Strong female characters, good world-building, the magic made sense. I loved the dialogue. A young girl who can talk to animals!? Middle-school-me would‘ve swooned! ☺️
pickDragons and duckmoles and badgers oh my! A grand adventure through the divine realms, a war of grand (you could even say divine) proportions, promises broken, and secrets revealed! A wonderful conclusion to this lovely series! I can‘t wait to get to Kel‘s books! (I just have to wait for them to arrive)
pickMy favourite of all of Daine‘s books (although the last is a close second) a truly fantastic book where we explore Tortal‘s southern neighbour for the first time and Daine looses her temper in just the most massive way posible (with a little help from a meddling old woman)
pickWe get to meet the pack! And a whole host of other friends (furred, feathered, two legger, and immortal) as well as a cast of foes, but isn‘t that always the case. Likewise, Daine starts the long (though not as long for her as many others) slog of growing up.
pickDaines turn! I love her so much y‘all, kel will always hold court as my favourite but before there was Kel there was Daine and there‘s a special place in my heart for this lovely wild girl who is (understandably) So So scared of herself and what she can do. Lucky for her she‘s about to find the best friends (family) a young girl could ask for.
