Six of Crows (Six of Crows #1) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

I was very excited to re-enter Bardugo’s Grishaverse by reading Six of Crows. As always, I was late the game but after finishing the Shadow and Bone trilogy, I was almost unable to hesitate reading the Six of Crows duology.

Ruin and Rising (Shadow and Bone #3) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

Ruin and Rising is a stunning yet bittersweet conclusion to the Shadow and Bone trilogy. Filled with shocking and saddening moments, the final installment to the dark fantasy series had me absolutely entranced and wanting for more.

Siege and Storm (Shadow and Bone #2) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

While I didn’t enjoy Siege and Storm as much as I enjoyed Shadow and Bone, I loved the new characters and the exciting new information gained about the Grishaverse series’ world throughout the novel.

Shadow and Bone (Shadow and Bone #1) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

Shadow and Bone has been popular for quite some time, but it wasn’t until recently that I bought the trilogy and Six of Crows duology. Now, I am finally reading the Shadow and Bone trilogy, and next, I will read Six of Crows, hopefully. I guess you could say I am gearing up to watch the Netflix series. As always, I am late to the game. But my hesitation to read popular series had no effect on the fact that I loved this novel.

Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves by Meg Long – Review

Thrilling and adventurous, Meg Long’s debut novel is a solid sci-fi with compelling characters and obstacles set upon an icy planet that welcomes peril at every turn.

Beckoning of the Gate (The Vāyilian Threads #1) by Benjamin J. Ryan – Review

A beautifully written and magical tale, the first novel in The Vāyilian Threads series is a masterpiece full of adventure, danger, and high stakes. Unlike any fantasy novel I have read before, Beckoning of the Gate was a fantastically thrilling and compelling journey that left me yearning for more.

Winterset Hollow by Jonathan Edward Durham – Review

5/5 Stars

// Quick Review //

Taking its rightful spot as my favorite book this year (and maybe of all time), Winterset Hollow is an immaculate mixture of good, evil, darkness, and light that had me hooked from beginning to end. Twisted and unexpected, I could not put this novel down until I knew the outcome of the horrific events that took place in this wonderfully mysterious and suspenseful novel.

The Last Namsara (Iskari #1) by Kristen Ciccarelli – Review

5/5 Stars

// Quick Review //

The Last Namsara is a magical novel that leads the reader on an adventure of discovery through the eyes of a badass main character.
Think How to Train Your Dragon but more adult and even better.

The Crowns of Croswald (The Crowns of Croswald #1) by D. E. Night – Review

4/5 Stars

// Quick Review //

Think Harry Potter but with a female main character and a mixture of many different tales from that of Percy Jackson and the Olympians to the Tales of Pixiehollow.

The Crowns of Croswald is a nostalgic yet new spin on magic, mysteries, and chosen-ones.
