Finale by Stephanie Garber

"The first time Legend appeared in Tella's dreams, he looked as if he'd just stepped out of one of the stories people told about him."


I love the Caraval Universe with the epic Fates, the risky games and unexpected twists, the ambiance and abundant romance. While 'Legendary' had left me in despair with a legendary amount of questions, 'Finale' was the King of finales, seeing our Scarlett and Tella through staggering revelations, impossible decisions, nail-biting confrontations and personal growth. As their mother and the Fates are finally freed from their perennial prison, strong and scheming as ever, the Dragna sisters are pulled into a whirlwind of action, where they will have to choose carefully who they can trust, who they can love and who they should let go. And of course the desperately charming Santos brothers are there, Legend and Julian, dashing, with a generous side of vulnerable (and it was about time). A satisfying ending to a magical adventure. 

My ratings:
Plot: 5/5
Conclusion: 5/5
Characters: 4/5
Movie Potential: 5/5

Descendant of the Crane by Joan He

"No night was perfect for treason, but this one came close." In the Kingdom of Yan, people who can predict the future and wield magic are considered monsters, brutally hunted down and executed - as are their sympathizers - in the name of peace and justice. After her father’s suspicious death, Queen Hesina, with the help of a mysterious convict and her step-siblings, will try to find the culprit, taking the case to the Investigation Bureau for trial and placing her trust in the justice system (Spoiler Alert: Big Mistake).  Welcome to a world where everyone is wearing big, elaborate masks and hiding behind their “good intentions”. The ‘Descendant of the Crane’ is full of political intrigue and self-righteous back-stabbers, with a twisty finish, which, considering how slowly the plot developed, escalated rather quickly and made for a riveting conclusion.   This isn’t a stand-alone novel; the ending lays the groundwork for a sequel. If I'm being honest though

Circe by Madeline Miller

"Day upon patient day, you must throw out your errors and begin again. So why did I not mind? Why did none of us mind?  I  cannot speak for my brothers and sister, but my answer is easy. For a hundred generations, I had walked the world drowsy and dull, idle and at my ease. I left no prints, I did no deeds. Even those who had loved me a little did not care to stay. Then I learned that I could bend the world to my will, as a bow is bent for an arrow. I would have done that toil a thousand times to keep such power in my hands. I thought: this is how Zeus felt when he first lifted the thunderbolt." Circe, daughter of Helios and a rather pompous nymph, Perse, was born and raised in the Titans' Halls, among other rather pompous nymphs, naiads, small deities and Titans. During her slow eternity she discovers her inherent powers of witchcraft and is exiled on the island Aiaia (even though I am Greek, I still had to google how to pronounce that name), where she hones her abilitie

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab

 "Because happiness is brief, and history is lasting, and in the end everyone wants to be remembered." The wonderful art is created by Mikrideb It is the year 1714 in a small village of France and Adeline, a young, wild girl full of dreams is about to get married against her will. As the noose of a miserable and unfulfilled life is getting tighter around her throat, Adeline escapes to the woods and she prays in the darkness for salvation only to be answered back by the Darkness himself. In her desperate desire for life beyond the confines of her small village, she strikes a deal with him: a long life in exchange for her soul, when she is done with it. But the Dark is ruthless and twists the deal into a curse, and so Addie is to be forgotten by everyone she meets, the second she is out of sight. For centuries she has moved through life as a ghost, until one day in a used-bookstore she meets Henry, who speaks the three little words that she has been longing to hear, "I rem
