Sorry Its Been A Minute

 Sorry life happens and you forget that you were doing things. Anyways lets talk about the books I've been reading: 

 

 

Harry Potter But Gloomier (and deadlier) - A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik

There are so many things I like about this book and I'm probably not the only one who compared it to Harry Potter. Set in The Scholomance, an underground, dystopian school were magicians are placed in for 4 years. There we follow the story of El, a loner who is in her third year. 

Death Gods in the Jazz Age - Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

I finished this book last night and It's ending left me so happy! This book is set in such a unique and different setting and it had me hocked the whole way. In some sense it is like a Mayan Percy Jackson, except better. Heads upper there is going to be some minor spoilers below. 

First Impression - The Eye of the World (150 pages in)

For the last few months a couple of my friends have really been excited about The Wheel of Time TV series that has come out on Amazon. I was aware that they had enjoyed The Wheel of Time but I had never gotten around to this series... until now. And since the first book is huge I wanted to write my impressions as I went. So now 150 pages or about 20% I wanted to share my first thoughts. 

Climb Aboard - The Boundless by Kenneth Oppel

Somewhere inside me is still the little child that is absolutely in love with steam trains, so when I heard about a book with an adventure on a train I am usually very interested and The Boundless is no exception. A thrilling adventure with a traveling circus, cunning thief's, and the largest train the world, I enjoyed this book greatly. 

My Absolute Favorite Book Ever - A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab

For my first post I wanted to share my absolute favorite book, the book I go back to when every other book just doesn't seem right, the book that no other book just seems to be able to top. A Darker Shade of Magic. 

The first in the book in the Shades of Magic series, it takes place in early 19th Century London, well actually several London's.....
