5. THE EMPEROR'S BLADES by Brian Staveley. (Audio). I liked this book and it reminded me a bit of GAME OF THRONES with the quest for the throne and family drama and fighting and stuff. I think I might try reading book two to see if I like it more in that format. I also could have used more romance:) |
4. THE GREAT HUNT by Wendy Higgins. This is a fantastic story with amazing tension between the main character and the boy she is set up to be with. I thought the story flowed well and was exciting. Looking forward to book two! |
3. THE VALIANT by Lesley Livingston. (ARC). I was lucky enough to run an event at my job with Lesley and a few other authors and it was great! I really liked this book! It's about a badass girl and I thought the side characters were so good, too. Gladiator is a favorite movie of mine so reading the female YA version was great. AND Lesley is hilarious and so nice in person! Definitely go see her if you ever can. |
2. THE STAR-TOUCHED QUEEN by Roshani Chokshi. This book was incredible. I absolutely love Roshani's writing style and I took note of so many beautiful lines. It was taking me forever to read it because I kept rereading beautiful passages. I highly recommend this book! It's a beautifully written love story. |
1. THE WRATH & THE DAWN by Renee Ahdieh. (Audio and Print). Wowwww! So good! I loved this story and was totally enraptured while reading it. Renee was at the same event Lesley was at and she is so nice and lovely. This book is definitely a favorite of mine. |
