The Crown's Fate | Evelyn Skye
post image

“I was lost from the moment I saw you on Ovchinin Island. It took a long while for me to realize it, but it's true. I've spent my entire life scrambling to fit in and to change myself, Vika, but where I've belonged, and who I needed to be, has been right here the whole time. I love you.”

I really enjoyed The Crown's Game, so I'm looking forward to diving into the sequel this month! I need to know what happens to Vika and Nikolai!!

Who loves a good retelling? 💕

I do, which is why I was so happy to get my hands on a copy of Spindle Fire! It's a retelling of Sleeping Beauty, and I can't wait to start reading it!! 📚

Plus, look how gorgeous it is without its dust jacket!!! 😍😍😍

alba_bookpics I don't know which editions to get 😭 I love both. 8y
conniereads @alba_bookpics They're both gorgeous editions, but I couldn't afford the shipping on the US hardbacks so I went for these ones. Quite happy with them though!! 💙❤️ 8y

Mad Miss Mimic | Sarah Henstra

There are things I cannot say in any voice.
I was born Leonora Emmaline Somerville, but I am not at all sure that is still who I am. 💕
.

Has anyone read Mad Miss Mimic? It sounds so intriguing - a mix of Jane Austen meets Arthur Conan Doyle! Very much looking forward to this one 💕
.
.
Plus, look at that cover! 😍

kingdomofbookss The book sounds interesting and omg the cover is so gorgeous😍 8y
conniereads @kingdomofbookss I agree! It was definitely a cover buy, but the blurb sounds brilliant!! 😄 8y
GlassAsDiamonds I'm reading it at the moment - I really like it but sometimes the historical accuracy of the main characters situation is hard to bear ("freedom" through marriage!). I know it's true & the author has clearly done her homework but.... ouch!! 7y

💚This book has given me a hangover!💚
I know there's been a lot of mixed reviews about A Court of Wings and Ruin, but I really enjoyed it! The ending felt a little rushed, but it worked out. And I loved the introduction of all of the High Lords (except Beron).
.
.
And whilst this may be sacrilege, Azriel is my absolute favourite Illyrian - but a mile!! I adore him 💙 I need more of him 💙

What book has given you a hangover recently? 📚

This book is utter perfection, in my mind. ❤️

“He read while he walked. He read while he ate. The other librarians suspected he somehow read while he slept, or perhaps didn't sleep at all.”

This is every reader, yes?!

I'm still not over how amazing this book was. I need book two to be published so much sooner than next year!! 💙

Love my Muse of Nightmares candle by Meraki Candles! 💙

MrBook Oh no, another candle that @BookBabe will need 😆. What's it smell like? 8y
