-quick review- The Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli

Image
- goodreads - "Asha.” He said her name like it was something exquisite and exasperating at the same time. What an amazing book this was. So magical so different and so fresh. The Last Namsara was such a quick yet immersing read. I found I couldn't didn't want to take a break from reading it, going as far as taking it with me to an overseas trip (with the obvious help of the kindle app.) I have to say though, I'm writing this months after I finished it but still the wonder of dragons, even better yet, dragons that collect stories like the girls who likes to provide them are still living on my mind, in my heart. The term Iskari somehow reminded me of Game Of Thrones if only because she's a girl and is secretly feared by many, being a fan of the TV series this became an instant favorite thing. So Death gave up and left her alone, thinking time itself would wear her away. The quick-paced developing of the story with pauses in all the right places, like ...

-review- An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson

Image
- goodreads - -Walking along a blade's edge was only fun until the blade stopped being a metaphor.- Have you ever gotten a book based solely on the fact that you’re a fan of the cover art artist? Well, I hadn’t until I found out Charlie Bowater was the artist who designed the cover for this book and since I’m a really really big fan of her work I couldn’t not buy it. Even more so when I found out a little bit about how it had similarities with a book that’s a favorite of mine. I put it on hold because I was going through a YA reading slump but thankfully I’m glad and happy to say I really enjoyed it. It reminded me, the writing style, to Wintersong’s prose and tempo. The author was in no hurry to finish this book yet it was really short and somehow it just makes it that more alluring and unique. -They looked like a pair of cupids who had decided they liked shooting people with real arrows better. They were horrible. I loved them so much.- Isobel is a human wit...
