Shadow & Night Study

IMG_2359I was a bit disappointed when I finished Fire Study but I still have hope that the series will pick back up for Shadow and Night Study. There wasn’t anything inherently wrong with Fire Study I just found it a bit more difficult to get through than the other books I’ve read from the Study Series. I love the whole premise of the books and they’ve really continued to expand and grow as the series continued. I’m still invested in the narrative and the characters, I especially like the dynamics of Yelena and Valek’s relationship. So I’m hoping the pace picks back up and I get excited about the series again.

Archenemies

IMG_2114So I read Renegades back in September and ended up really loving it! Nova and Adrian are one of my favourite male and female protagonists for the year. The premise of the book is just so captivating, the way Marissa wrote it made you able to just dive head first into the world she has created. It’s very fast paced and action packed and I highly enjoyed the plot and the powers and how they differentiate between the characters. I am highly invested in this story and I am very excited to continue on with Archenemies and see where the storyline will go next!

Queen of Air and Darkness

IMG_2238I cannot believe the time has come and I know have this book in my hands!! This is absolutely my most highly anticipated book release of the year. I am having flashbacks to last year picking up Lord of Shadows and reliving all the emotions and feelings that came out of that book. I think the Dark Artifices series is fast becoming my new favourite series of Cassandra Clare. I think her writing has gotten more developed and the story of the Blackthorn family is just so compelling. Julian and Emma’s relationship and their progression over the course of the books is wonderful to read, they are definitely one of my favourite YA couples. I am picking this book up and reading it right now!

Oathbringer

IMG_2126I am such a huge fan of the Stormlight Archives. I started with Words of Radiance earlier this year and I have honestly not looked back! I wasn’t the biggest fan of Edgedancer which I read a few months ago but I have a feeling that Lift is definitely going to be a stronger protagonist in this instalment. I am definitely more of a high/epic fantasy reader and this series just encompasses everything that I love about the genre. A plethora of characters that interweave throughout the plot, a magic system that is well defined and original and a world that is huge and very well developed. Brandon Sanderson is an amazing writer and I am low key sad that I won’t get another book in this series for a few years. There is still so many of his books that I haven’t read though so I will definitely be keeping myself busy in the meantime.

Muse of Nightmares

IMG_2117This is another of my most anticipated book releases of the year! I read Strange the Dreamer earlier in the year after putting it off for the longest time. I’ve spoken about it before on my blog but I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series by Laini Taylor. I even DNF’d Dreams of Gods and Monsters and that is not an easy thing for me to do. I have a hard time leaving books as DNF’s and having it unresolved and finished but I just couldn’t continue on. So that really put me off Strange the Dreamer for the longest time until I finally bit the bullet earlier this year and was pleasantly surprised! I ended up really enjoying the plot and the whimsical nature of Laini Taylor’s prose really came across better for me in this book. Which is why I’m really excited to continue on in this storyline and see what happens next!
