A Conjuring of Light | Victoria Schwab

5/5⭐️ what a great end to this amazing series, this book had me on the edge of my seat one minute and crying the next, Schwab really has a way with making the characters stories really matter to you. I thought the endings for all the characters were really poignant and natural, I‘m so sad to be finished with the London‘s but I don‘t think I‘ll forget about this story anytime soon ❤️

4.5/5⭐️ couldn‘t put this down!! I absolutely loved the character development of Cardan in this book, he becomes cheeky and likeable, Jude continues to be my #1 gal, I‘m so glad she got everything she wanted ❤️ I highly recommend this series if you‘re into fae, politics, magic and stabbing people 🗡✨

4.5/5⭐️ started on Saturday, finished on Monday! I really enjoyed The Wicked King, the pacing was excellent and Jude continues to be one of my favourite bookish protags! the political themes in this book are heavy but it always keeps you guessing! I‘m super excited to read the final instalment in The Folk of Air series 🗡✨

🦉🏺✨ just thought I‘d share my new purchases with everyone! I am a huge Greek Mythology nerd and The Iliad is one of my favourite stories, so I‘m super excited to read the Robert Fagles translation! Aren‘t they pretty? ✨🏺🦉

3.5/5⭐️ so.. I liked it but I didn‘t love it. I feel like this book didn‘t need to be as long as it is and unfortunately Lila was so unlikeable this time around, which was disappointing. Kell remains my favourite boy though ❤️ I still enjoyed Schwabs writing style and I am looking forward to the final instalment in the series, especially after that cliffhanger 🤭

The Cruel Prince | Holly Black

4.5/5⭐️ I found this a little hard to sink my teeth into at first, I find that the references to a modern world can throw me off when it comes to fantasy but once the story unfolded I couldn‘t put it down! I absolutely love Jude and relate to her so much 🗡 it‘s an extremely whimsical story that is balanced out by the bloodthirsty politics of Faerie! Also I‘m just a sucker for good old fashioned enemies to lovers 🤭

5/5⭐️ I LOVE this book, everything from the world building to the character depth, it captures you and doesn‘t let you go till the very last word, I highly recommend this if you‘re a fan of magic, thieves and sassy brunettes 💁🏻‍♀️

2/5⭐️ so I finished All The Stars and Teeth today and unfortunately it just didn‘t hit the spot, I feel like the overall premise was good but the execution was poor, the world building felt a bit bland and I had a hard time picturing any of the cities or islands, I also didn‘t vibe with any of the characters! I really wanted to like this book but it‘s just not for me!
