NAMESAKE by Adrienne Young
Rating: 4 / 5 I loved FABLE by Adrienne Young when I received it in a Fairy Loot box, so I ordered their matching special edition of NAMESAKE when it came available. I had to wait for the UK publication date and made myself wait to actually read it until my copy came, so I… Continue reading NAMESAKE by Adrienne Young
BLOOD & HONEY, GODS & MONSTERS by Shelby Mahurin
Rating: 4 / 5 I read SERPENT & DOVE by Shelby Mahurin with a group of friends last April and got BLOOD & HONEY when it came out, but hadn't picked it up.

SHADOW AND BONE by Leigh Bardugo
Rating: 4 / 5 I really enjoyed the SIX OF CROWS duology when I read it last year, so I have been wanting to read more by Leigh Bardugo. The SHADOW AND BONE trilogy actually happens prior to the duology so I'm reading a bit out of order, but I did want to pick this… Continue reading SHADOW AND BONE by Leigh Bardugo
THE TETHERED MAGE by Melissa Caruso
Rating: 4 / 5 THE TETHERED MAGE by Melissa Caruso was the April/May book pick for the #MagicMayhemReads buddy read on Instagram. I knew nothing about this one going in.

THE HERO OF AGES by Brandon Sanderson
Rating: 5 / 5 After reading and loving THE WELL OF ASCENSION by Brandon Sanderson last month, I was very excited to pick up THE HERO OF AGES as the final installment in the initial Mistborn trilogy. It is really hard to say anything about a conclusion to a trilogy without giving spoilers for the… Continue reading THE HERO OF AGES by Brandon Sanderson
THE WELL OF ASCENSION by Brandon Sanderson
Rating: 5 / 5 I joined a readalong for the Brandon Sanderson Cosmere books last year and absolutely loved the first few reads of his. Unfortunately that readalong fell apart after the first couple of books and I didn't get to the remaining books. This year I joined in on a readalong for the Stormlight… Continue reading THE WELL OF ASCENSION by Brandon Sanderson
