Welcome to First Line Friday, hosted by Hoarding Books! There have been some fabulous books releasing this week, but none has been anticipated by me quite so long as the one I’m sharing today: Fierian, the final book in Ronie Kendig’s Abiassa’s Fire series. Even if you don’t normally read fantasy, this series will hook you. These characters—I love them! You can read my full review here.
~ About the Book ~ The hour has come to set the world alight. Abiassa’s people fall. Her Deliverers wait as Poired Dyrth marches unchecked through the Nine Kingdoms. He’s taken the Embers of countless Accelerants. He’s taken Zaethien and Hetaera, the mightiest cities of the Nine. He’s taken the blood of the royal family. Now Dyrth is after Haegan’s power—the Fierian’s power. And after that, he wants the world. But Dyrth will not take it unopposed. Battered and outnumbered, the remnant of the Nine forge new alliances, make friends of enemies, and prepare to stand against the last great
Happy Tuesday to you all! This week’s topic from That Artsy Reader Girl has result in several hours of getting lost in some of my favourite reads, because we’re discussing favourite book quotes. And if I wasn’t in the habit of highlighting things on my Kindle as I read, I probably wouldn’t even be writing this right now; I’d STILL be lost reliving some of my favourite bookish moments on the quest for quotes to share. It’s a tough life, hey? 😉 But I’ve managed to rein myself in just in time. This is by no means a definitive list, and
Happy Tuesday, book lovers! Are you a re-reader? I am, although I confess I don’t have as much time for re-reading as I would like to. There are so many great books releasing all the time it’s hard enough to keep up with them, let alone re-reading my favourites as well. Nevertheless, there are some books that I have re-read numerous times, and there are others that I know I would re-read numerous times if I had more hours in my day.
Hello, book lovers! Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday brought to you by That Artsy Read Girl. Today’s official topic is Books I Really Liked But Can’t Remember Anything/Much About. In my world, that translates to Books I Really Need to Read Again, hence my tweaking of the topic today. And if I was going to give today’s topic a subtitle, it would be Hurrah for Goodreads! 😃 I mean, this topic is like saying, “Quick, tell me all the things you’ve forgotten.” 😵 So, yeah. Goodreads to the rescue!
Welcome to day three of The Emoji Files, showcasing my favourite reads of 2017 by the emoji they best correspond to. So far this week I’ve had The Swoony Awards and The LOL Awards, and today we’re looking at The WOW Awards: those books that had me riveted to the page and often on the edge my seat.
Happy New Year, reader friends! Welcome to the first part of my Best of 2017 series, which I’ve affectionately called ‘The Emoji Files’. When I sat down to try and do my ‘Best of 2017’ post, I ended in a completely bookish mess. I read 200 books in 2017, and since I’m pretty good at picking books I really enjoy, it gets difficult to narrow it down to a list of 10, or even 20. Then there’s the fact that I’m a pretty eclectic reader within the Christian fiction genre. I enjoy different books for different reasons, so it’s kind
