Review: Waging War (The Immortal Descendants #4) by April White
For the last couple of years I’ve been a big fan of the Immortal Descendants series! It’s been really fun watching the series evolve and mature over the years! I love the main characters and the premise for the story so when Waging War came out I naturally agreed to review it! In the previous books, Clocker Saira Elian, time travels through multiple different periods to save friends, family, of course stop the Mongers from gaining power. This book is no different….this time we find Saira time traveling to WWII to try and stop a brutal massacre. Saira and her friend Ringo, travel back to WWII Bletchley Park to team up…

Review: The Last Days of Magic by Mark Tompkins
This book has only recently been on my radar. It’s being market to fans of Deborah Harkness’s All Soul’s Trilogy so of course when I saw it, I was excited to read something that promises so much! It introduces us to unforgettable characters who grapple with quests for power, human frailty, and the longing for knowledge that has been made taboo. Mark Tompkins has crafted a remarkable tale—a feat of world-building that poses astonishing and resonant answers to epic questions. What became of magic in the world? Who needed to do away with it, and for what reasons? Drawing on myth, legend, fairy tales, and Biblical mysteries, this book imagines answers…

Review: The Return of the Witch (The Witch’s Daughter #2) by Paula Brackston
I’ve been a big fan of Paula Brackston…….especially her witch books! Ironically the only book of her’s I haven’t read is The Witch’s Daughter! I have it but I just haven’t gotten around to reading it for some reason. So when this book came up for review, I was hesitant only because I haven’t read the first one. However, I was so excited to read another of her witch books that I just gave in a read this one! So I would be lying if I said I should have read the first book before this one. There were a lot of references to things that happened in the first…

Review: A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic #1) by V.E. Schwab
This book has been all OVER my social media feed for months but especially the last few weeks with the upcoming release of the second book in the series. So I decided on a whim to try it out. The cover is totally eye catching and the premise for the story sounds intriguing, plus I haven’t read a really good fantasy in a while so I picked this book up. Kell is one of the last Travelers, which is a rare magician who choose a parallel universe to visit. Grey London is dirty, boring, lacks magic, ruled by mad King George. Red London is where life and magic are revered (also…

Review: Frozen Tides (Falling Kingdoms #4) by Morgan Rhodes
This book was one of the first books I’ve put on pre-order in a long time! I was originally only lukewarm with this series after the first book, but then things started getting really interesting in the following books! So needless to say I was greatly anticipating the release of this novel! The last time we were in Mytica, a lot of things were up in the air. Cleo and Magnus are in Limeros trying to figure out what to do now that Magnus has basically committed treason to save Cleo. Felix and Jonas have parted ways and Felix is back working for the King of Blood while Jonas is fighting to…

Review: The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials #1) by Philip Pullman
After reading Up To This Pointe earlier this month, I was dying to read something else set in the ‘north’ or in the ‘cold’. The Golden Compass has been on my TBR shelf forever and now seemed like the perfect time to read it since it features the Northern Lights and the north pole as well as a host of other things! Lyra Belacqua has been raised at Oxford’s, Jordan College, most of her young life. It is here that two very important people come to visit. the first is her uncle, Lord Asriel, who is an explorer and who has just returned from the north with some dangerous findings. Lord Asriel…
