Villains I’d Join to Conquer The World
I think everyone knows that as book readers, villains play some of the most important roles in our favorite stories. This is especially true in fantasy novels and I usually find myself loving certain qualities of a villain and how they decide to rule the world. So let’s talk about the villains that I’d conquer the world with!
Ninth House – Leigh Bardugo
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo was a complete rollercoaster. I have to admit that I didn’t know what to expect going into this book, however, Bardugo’s Grishaverse had me hooked so I did expect myself to enjoy this one as well.
May Flowers – Eden Larsen
May Flowers is the fifth book in the Calendar Romance series by Eden Larsen and it brings us into a world of love and the difficulties that come with it.
My Favorite Writing Tips: From a Beginner to a Beginner
As someone who has always loved reading and writing, I figured it was time for me to take my ideas and make them into something real. Writing has always been a form of escape for me. Creating characters and fictional worlds that I can get completely lost in is something that I love doing, and since I’m a beginner, I figured I’d share the tips that got me started!
Siege and Storm – Leigh Bardugo
What a complete and utter roller coaster. I highly recommend reading this book in one sitting and getting emotionally attached to all the characters just to go through the book and its unreasonable range of emotional distress. Just kidding, it will probably hurt like it’s killing me right now.
Shadow and Bone – Leigh Bardugo
Okay, so this has been on my TBR list ever since I heard about it and I was pleasantly surprised. I’ve heard a ton of mixed reviews when it comes to this book so I was excited to see what my take on the story was. Leigh Bardugo is a generally new author to me, I haven’t read anything by her before, however, with the upcoming television show that’s airing on April 23rd, I couldn’t wait to launch into this series.
ISAN – Mary Ting
This book was incredible. I have to say, I had no clue what to expect when starting it. It’s not a well known book, so I didn’t really have any expectations, however, this completely blew my mind. I finished it in a matter of days (pretty much one day), and couldn’t put it down. The story was captivating and addicting and I felt stuck in the pages of the book and completely in love with the characters.
Lore (Excerpt) – Alexandra Bracken
This book is kind of centered around Greek mythology. Every seven years, the Agon begins and nine Greek Gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals. These Gods are hunted during the Agon by descendants of the ancient bloodlines in order for the hunters to gain immortality and power.
Throne of Glass – Sarah J. Maas
This novel was the perfect blend of fantasy and murder mystery. The plot line makes every second feel important and I loved every part of this book. I was constantly on the edge of my seat just waiting and needing to know more. This is definitely a must read for all YA fantasy readers!
