“We the Legion. We the light. Burning bright against the night.” Both Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff are extremely talented authors on their own and in their other works.

Happy Tuesday everyone! So I finally decided to join in on this weekly meme because I absolutely loved today’s topic. This idea was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish in 2010 and moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and…
A Heart So Fierce and Broken (Cursebreakers #2) by Brigid Kemmerer Publication date: January 7, 2020 Genres: Young Adult, Fantasy, Retelling Pages: 450 ♛ Add to Goodreads ♛ Book Depository ♛ Let me just start this out by saying that A Curse So Dark and Lonely was one of my top reads of 2019 and made it to my favorites list. As expected, I was extremely excited for this one but was sad to know that Harper would no longer have a POV. However I was eager to see Grey's perspective ...
I finally finished this whole series and it was honestly one of the most satisfying binges I've ever done. In case you missed it, I did mini review for the first three books as well which you can see here. But there will be no spoilers here, so don't worry! Rating: ★★★★★ This book made me feel all of the emotions and is definitely my favorite of the whole series. We got several new enjoyable POVs, but most importantly the enemies to lovers romance really started to simmer so I was living ...
Rating: ★★★★ Our story starts out with the princess of Auranos visiting the neighboring kingdom of Paelsia when her friend murders a man in cold blood. This causes all sorts of repercussions for the princess, and the kingdoms of Paelsia and Limeros unite to fight against Auranos. This first book did a great job of easing you into this high fantasy world, and I was genuinely surprised by how easy it was to follow along. (Although the fact that it includes a cast of characters definitely ...

One of blood. One of light.” The prologue of this immediately sucked me in and this book had me wrapped around it's finger. I mean a powerful female MC who ends up becoming the villain?

King of Fools (The Shadow Game #2) by Amanda Foody Published on April 30, 2019 Genres: Young Adult, Fantasy Format: Hardover Pages: 602 ♛ Add to Goodreads ♛ Book Depository "The city felt like the hush before a stage curtain lifted, but what the city waited for was war." The previous novel in this series, Ace of Shades, is one of my all time favorites and I've read it a couple of times. This was everything I could have hoped for in a sequel, and more, but I didn't ...
"We the Legion. We the light. Burning bright against the night." Both Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff are extremely talented authors on their own and in their other works. But pair them together and something truly magical happens with their writing. The Illuminae Files is one of my favorite series and I've read the books several times. I was a little scared to see how anything they'd write could ever live up to that trilogy, but they definitely did not disappoint. Aurora Rising proves ...
