Instagram Book Review:
I was home sick over the long weekend, and while I mostly played The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, I did finish one book. I read Graceling by Kristin Cashore since I received her Graceling book series for the holidays. I just sat in the couch with my favorite blanket and read between naps.
First impressions:
- There could have been more boats and Lienid pirates. I loved them.
- The romantic interest is interesting, but theres no commonplace tropes if that's what you're expecting (and I'm a sucker for happy marriage honestly)
- The horses have no names or personalities, which is too bad because they do an awful lot of demanding work with no complaint.
- and names of certain characters are wonderfully absurd
It's overall a great start to a series, and I took the second book, Fire, to work with me. I'm excited to see what develops in this world.
(a more in depth review is on my Goodreads)

This epic lgbtqia fantasy is absolutely everything I wanted! The descriptions, the politics, the characters, and the representation are incredible.
Rosy is a shifter who winds up going to a very prestigious school. For Rosy, this is a different experience than what she is used to, tending horses with her grandmother. With this huge change, Rosy finds herself even getting attention from the princess. This story takes some interesting twists and turns that leave me anticipating the next book bc yes (!!!!) This is a series!!!
I'm so excited about this one and recommend it.
Out February 27, 2024!
Thank you, Netgalley and Publisher, for this Arc!

City of Fallen Angels is a Wild Ride
There are things I absolutely love about this books and then there’s Jace. References and relationships that made my heart flutter and then there’s Jace. Killer plot devices and action sequences. And then there’s Jace. Let me start by saying it’s not as serious of a hate as I’m painting it out to be. Jace just infuriated me throughout this whole book and Clary simping and accepting this broken…

I just wanted to make a post showcasing some of my favorite illustrations by Keith Thompson for the Leviathan Trilogy.
The art went so hard in these books, it’s crazy. The plot is basically an alternate universe WW1 about the major two powers, the Darwinists, and the Clankers. The Darwinists genetically engineered animals to fight for them creating huge flying whale battleships, while the Clankers made huge robot mechs and powerful guns. A few historical people and places show up in these books, like Nikola Tesla.
But my favorite parts of the books were the art, truly breathtaking, it was beautifully grotesque at times. But that’s not unexpected, after all Keith Thompson helped create the design of Moder from The Ritual!

I had high expectations for this book, and it went beyond those plus another billion high. This is my new favorite ya series right now! I have not been so invested in a ya fantasy in a while, and this had me heart and soul. Very character driven, plot driven also. But these characters, Selly, Leander, and Keegan, feel like my new best book friends.
A sentinel goddess that requires a sacrifice, a slumbering god that needs to awaken. These are the two sides of a war that seem hellbent on coming. Leander is a prince who is journeying to make a sacrifice to his kingdom's goddess, unknowingly entering dangerous waters on Selly's ship. Keegan, a scholar, is also aboard, unwittingly being dragged into the middle of history in the making.
What they don't know is that the country across from them has been paying attention. Particularly Laskia, dying to prove that she is better and worth more than her infamous sister.
I cried 5 times reading this, and I really never cry in books. This author had me instantly feeling attached to these characters and their emotions, so yeah... some tearjerker moments had me.
Out May 2, 2023!
