Owlcrate has been sending out really great books the past few months.

A YA retelling of one of my favorite operas, Turandot. I cried at the end.

These books are SO GOOD. The ending ofThe Wicked King made me want to scream and I need the sequel immediately.

An amazing finale to an incredible series.

This book started as an action packed sci-fi adventure
And had me in tears by the end.

I read 1,797 pages for the #BiannualBibliothon.

Full of psychopaths.

DNF at 30%
Got this in my Owlcrate box and I was sooo excited but...
It's like Lyra Selene was sitting with a thesaurus and a metaphor generator. Almost every sentence is overflowing with simile and/or metaphor. It's very hard to read.
Sylvia is obnoxious and entitled and bitter and constantly feels sorry for herself. She can't follow a single instruction from anybody, to the point that her ambition and defiance is no longer endearing.

3.5 ⭐️ Read on my Kindle. I thought the writing was ok, and I was really interested in the story and what happened to January. I liked the LGBT element as well. Quick read and enjoyable.
