I‘m ready to start the second book! I also bought it when I was on my honeymoon in Paris so I might be a little excited! #scifi #fantasy #paris #adventure #vengeful

It‘s so simple, but written and structured so intricately! It‘s dark, but not overly dark. It has superpower elements, but it‘s not cheesy. I love this author so much so it wasn‘t hard to fall in love with the characters. The twist at the end was very satisfying, and it left me wanting more! Cannot wait to start the sequel! #vicious #scifi #fantasy #adventure
Yes I love the characters and the world! But coming straight from the Six of Crows duology, it was a bit jarring to have everyone so spread out in the story. One storyline would get intense and then CUT TO this other person across the map doing something totally different and not at the same level of intensity. I miss everyone staying together and challenging one another. I hope the next book ties up all of these loose ends! #ya #fantasy #grisha
Excited to keep living in the GrishaVerse! Also, this book is gorgeous! #fantasy #ya #grishaverse #kingofscars #bookclub
I don‘t know how Leigh did it, but the second book is even better than the first! The jobs are thrilling, so much at stake to lose, the romantic tension is intense, and the emotion is heavy as I cried at the end. But the plot development is so balanced! I was also laughing when certain people got their revenge and spewed out brilliant retorts! Love this series so much! Cannot wait to start King of Scars! #ya #fantasy #yabookclub #sixofcrows
“The plague passed effortlessly from body to body... Like gossip, no one knew exactly how it began or how it moved so quickly, only that it did, through breath or touch...The rich suffered less, able to stay sequestered in their grand houses...The infected poor were quarantined in makeshift hospitals...Commerce halted and only the sickboats, bodymen, and mediks had free rein of the city.” Hitting a little too close to home. #ya #fantasy #bookclub
“I would come for you. And if I couldn‘t walk, I‘d crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we‘d fight our way out together — knives drawn, pistols blazing. Because that‘s what we do. We never stop fighting.”
Gahhhhhhhhhhhh stopping pulling at my heart strings, thank you very much! Would love to survive and remain whole by the end of this book. #ya #yabookclub #fantasy #love #crookedkingdom
I‘ve got my coffee. I‘ve watered the garden. I‘ve cleaned the dishes.
I am ready 🙌🏻 #ya #yabookclub #fantasy
I finally finished it! Not because of the book but because work has been really crazy lately.
I don‘t think I‘ve blinked the past hour because I‘ve been glued to the pages. All of the characters have great flaws, depth, and personality. The relationships are extremely strong. Brilliant balance between humor and dark, dark mood. I‘m already picking up the sequel and busting it open. I‘m addicted. #ya #yabookclub #fantasy #sixofcrows
Long hours at work sadly broke my book a week challenge I set for myself, but I‘m still blazing on! Finally starting Six of Crows and I love how moody it is! Happy weekend everyone! #ya #fantasy #youngadult #sixofcrows
This series is hands down one of the best I‘ve read lately. A world where gravity disappears and suddenly the sky is dangerous. Love the concept, love the main character, and love the plot! So many twists and turns! The artwork and colors are gorgeous. Read it! #comic #graphicnovel #ya #youngadult #skyward #fantasy #bookaweekchallenge
Tomi‘s writing style is beautiful. I very much enjoyed revisiting characters and being introduced to new ones! Sometimes the events were predictable, but I think that‘s more a credit towards intricate and strong plot development and world building. It was moving and extremely exciting! Couldn‘t put it down! Cannot wait for the next book!!! #bookaweekchallenge #ya #youngadult #fantasy #bookclub
Reading some beautiful words this beautiful morning!! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

It was fun adventure and twist on the story that we know so well. I kept going back and forth on liking the MC. Arthur fell flat to me. Merlin was the most interesting since he was very flawed. The first half of the book felt so slow, then around 200pgs it picked up! Towards the end, it was mass chaos with many things happening at once so the pacing was a little off to me. Love the illustrations tho! #bookaweekchallenge #ya #fantasy #bookclub
I didn‘t enjoy the book at all. I‘ve never read a James P book before, but I do know he writes many books a year so they mostly have to be good! However, this book made no sense. The MC was not like able at all. Certain events made no sense. 2 characters even said “I don‘t know why this happens but it does”. It felt like someone told James “female lead characters are popular right now so you should write a mini fantasy novel”. #bookaweekchallenge
It was my birthday yesterday and my husband stocked my YA, Fantasy, and comic bookshelf with some new beauties!!!!
I‘ve had a goal this year to read a book a week, and so far I‘ve been achieving that! What is your 2020 book goal?

The idea of the Reverie is very imaginative. Bubble swarms of dreams / nightmares that you have to control or else they take over. Cool idea! I think some of the character execution was a little off for me. The most interesting traits were all pulled into Dean and the villain, so sadly the main character fell flat to me. The writing style is very simple and borderline childish, but it‘s an easy adventure to read! #ya #youngadult #fantasy #booknerd
A beautiful tale of sisterhood, of love, of grief, and of bravery all told through Sara B. Larson‘s brilliant words. The sisters are incredibly badass. They are both strong and vulnerable in their own ways. I absolutely loved it and couldn‘t put it down! I cannot wait for the second book!
“There are only two options with grief and guilt. You can either let them drown you, or let them drive you. It‘s your choice.”
