The Vanishing Stair | Maureen Johnson

In life, the murderer is anyone. The reasons, the methods, the circumstances-the paths to becoming a murderer are as numerous as the stars. Understanding this is the first step to finding a murderer. You have to shut down the voices in your mind that say, “it has to be this person.” Murderers aren‘t a type. They‘re anyone.

The Quadrants of Quadara:
Archia: the agricultural isle that values simplicity, hard work and nature.
Eonia: the frozen quadrant that values technology, evolution and a harmonious society.
Toria: the coastal quadrant that values commerce, curiosity and exploration.
Ludia: the pleasure quadrant that values frivolity, music, art and entertainment.

Legendary | Stephanie Garber

“As fantastical as Caraval might feel, the next five nights are very real. Elantine has invited us here to save the empire from her greatest fear. For centuries the Fates were locked away, but now they wish to come out and play. If they regain their magic the world will never be the same, but you can help stop them by winning the game. To do this you must be clever and follow the clues to find the dark object that can destroy them forever....”

Caraval | Stephanie Garber

This is your first clue on the road to find her.
The others will not be so easy to retrieve.
Some will make you.....you‘re sanity and all that...eve.
Clue number two you‘ll discover in the rubble of her departure.
Number three you must earn.
Number four will cost you something valuable.
And number five requires a leap of faith.
Most of you will fail, but one will surely succeed.
You have five nights to find the four remaining clues.

channelingmcgonagall Great series! I have yet to read Legendary and Finale will be out soon, but I recognized this quote immediately! 😄 5y
bookishbartender92 @channelingmcgonagall Yes! I‘m actually rereading this in preparation for Legendary and Finale. I got the OwlCrate special edition for Finale, were you able to grab one?? 5y
channelingmcgonagall @bookishbartender92 didn't know about the special editions, but happy to have Caraval from an OwlCrate before I cancelled my subscription 5y
ADWithrow I was trying to decide if this would be my next read and this did it for me. Starting tomorrow! 5y
bookishbartender92 Excellent! I hope you enjoy @ADWithrow 5y

Don‘t hate, but I am finally reading the HP series. I thought I knew all there was since it‘s been out for a while and most has been spoiled, but boy I am still enjoying this series as a first timer!

aniket.barik Ikr? These books are magnificent! I envy the fact that you're reading it for the first time, I wish I could re-live the first experience. Have fun! 6y

I'm still a tad unsure about this book, as the first few chapters were confusing with lots of backstories and swapping of character POV, but I also can't seem to put it down! Thoughts? Opinions?

I have read this before, but didn't recall much of the story at all. I enjoyed the plot, the poetic writing style, and of the course the dirty depth that depicts the horrors of crank. Highly recommend!

Mehso-so

I liked it, but was definitely expecting to like it more. The plot seemed rushed: when the romance happened (which I'm a romance fiend) I was like "woah, no build up; okay, let's kiss!" ? I can usually feel emotions while reading (massive empath here) but I felt none. The only bit of shock I had, was at the the end with the "mix-up." Overall: nice quick read. Would I recommend: probably not.

I'm still reading, but I don't like it as much as I thought so far. I feel like a lot of the story is rushed...I love the plot, but it could have been written better.

I adored this book! I got the emotions! I got the action! It was practically a movie before my eyes! The books are thick, but that is because of the amazing character building SJM does! I have A Court of Wings and Ruin preordered and it will not be here soon enough! Be prepared for a book hangover in this piece...

I know I keep posting about Rhys, but my Lord, I adore the man with every turn of the page! I liked Tamlin, but seeing more from Feyre's point of view has changed my opinion. Besides, I've already envisioned Rhys as hotter 🙄😍

A vital piece has been spoiled for me, but I am enjoying seeing the connection between the two continue to strengthen! I just adore how gentle and loving Rhys is with Feyre!
