Trial By Fire: The Worldwalker Trilogy 1
Trial By Fire: The Worldwalker Trilogy 1 | Josephine Angelini
A sensational, page-turning adventure from the bestselling author of Starcrossed "Readers will be swept into the inner workings of crucibles and witches and left eager for more .. a richly drawn world of keenly devised magic." Kirkus "Combines the best elements of a magical fantasy with hints of sci-fi, history, and romance." School Library Journal Love burns. Worlds collide. Magic reigns. This world is trying to kill Lily Proctor. Her life-threatening allergies keep her from enjoying many of the experiences that other teenagers take for granted ... which is why she is determined to enjoy her first (and perhaps only) high-school party. But Lily's life never goes according to plan, and after a humiliating incident in front of half her graduating class Lily wishes she could just disappear. Suddenly Lily is in a different Salem - one overrun with horrifying creatures and ruled by powerful women called Crucibles. Strongest and cruellest of all the Crucibles is Lillian ... Lily's identical other self in this alternate universe. This new version of her world is terrifyingly sensual, and Lily is soon overwhelmed by new experiences. Lily realizes that what makes her weak at home is exactly what makes her extraordinary in New Salem. It also puts her life in danger. Thrown into a world she doesn't understand, Lily is torn between responsibilities she can't hope to shoulder alone, and a love she never expected. But how can Lily be the saviour of this world when she is literally her own worst enemy?

The Crucible retelling I didn‘t know I‘d like! What a coincidence that this story uses Miller‘s iconic play as a base & I‘m currently teaching it 😁 Some teen cringe moments exists to induce eye-rolls but the basic concept is awesome and the way it could play out has some seriously cool implications - crucibles are women who transmutate heat into energy in this world & witches are on a crusade against science. Spiritwalking & multiverse too 📚📚📚

#endotrailbyforegiveaway
I got into reading as soon as I could read. My dad was in the military and we moved around a lot. I was always the new kid, we were always traveling and I was an only child. Books were my one constant, something that passed the time and something I could do by myself. Back then I was obsessed with Archie comics and The Babysitters Club.

Hello my lovelies! Today I bring you the #EndoTrialbyFireGiveaway hosted by @Endowarrior21 Checj their page for full details!

What got me into reading was my mother and grandmother who always encouraged books in the home. They always were willing to take a library trip or sit down and help me read a big book. It really gave me the confidence to love reading from a young age!

I can't remember a time when I wasn't a reader. I grew up in a household full of books, and I've always loved books! 📚

Trollkonstnaren Just a question: this is sort of habit that at some milestones people send books away or...? 6y
CoffeeNBooks @Trollkonstnaren Sometimes people like to do giveaways, and so they use a milestone as a fun opportunity to do that. I hope that answers your question! 😊 6y

Congrats @Endowarrior21 on your milestone!!! #EndoTrialbyFiregiveaway

I first got into reading when I was in first grade or so. Growing up my mom would read the Laura Ingalls Wilder books to my brother and I. This started my love affair with books, always reading before bed making me have “two bedtimes”. I had to be in bed by 8, but lights out at 9 lol

Congrats @Endowarrior21 ! Thanks for the opportunity.
I got into reading at an early age, about 4 and a half. My Dad said I was reading Dr. Suess books to my kindergarten class (at that time they didn't really focus on reading until about 1st grade). I have always loved books!

Mehso-so

Pretty typical YA fantasy book, you have your super sexy brooding male protagonist with the I‘m-not-sexy but is totally sexy female protagonist who wind up falling for each other. Her best friend who she loves of course is a turd bag. Magic that she doesn‘t know how to control but of course winds up doing so perfectly. It was good enough for me to try the second one but not overall great.

"I don't want her broken like me. I want her wounded, yes, but stronger for it. There comes a day when every girl loses the stars in her eyes. And then she can see clearly."

Just started this and I love the parallel worlds theme! I like the correlations and subtle opposites that are woven into it. It's pretty quick paced and I can tell it'll be a fun read✊?

This was my library haul on Wednesday. They changed my work schedule so I have 30 min window to get to the library. I arrived with only 15 mins until closing. I know these librarians were not happy to see me. I promised them I would be only 5 mins. I practically ran to the YA section. I probably looked crazy running and I panicked lol. I got all the way home and I realized I have already read Trial by Fire. That's why you always get more than one.

maximoffs @thegirlwiththelibrarybag It is! Ive read Cuckoos Calling and loved it! 8y
queerbookreader Is this for taking with you on your journey or nah? Will you be able to bring your kindle with you? Also the silkworm was v cool, I couldn't figure out whodunnit at ALL which I'm usually pretty good at doing so it was super suspenseful the whole way through 8y
maximoffs @lemonlime799 yes and no! Stuff to read before but yes my Kindle will be coming with me! 8y

Wow. Ich liebe es.
Die Geschichte von Lily und Rowan ist einfach nur mitreißend, spannend und Herz ergreifend. Ich liebe den Schauplatz, die Story und die wundervollen Charaktere.
Ein absolutes must have.

It's now 1.58am and I've just closed this book. Wow! Not only are the covers for this saga absolutely stunning, the story that lies inside is amazing. I was able to devour this book in one sitting.

Thrilling storyline, avid detail, addictive characters, definitely an adventure not to be missed.

I highly recommend. Now I'm gonna get some shut eye so I'm fresh to dive into book two. :-)

This is my 3rd read of this book. I'm rereading in anticipation of the upcoming series finale release. #sequelseptember

While this series is just an ok one for me when I think about it: I truly feel like I'll pass out if I can't read the finale ASAP!

Pros: the parallel worlds + historical parts are truly compelling. Cons: the mythology is not the best part-it's a little confusing actually.

Audio is read by Emma Galvin, a favorite of mine👍🏻

BookishFeminist Oh I love Emma Galvin! I listened to her narration for the first time in this book and she did such a phenomenal job 8y

A must read if you like suspenseful witchy magic with intense characters and world-building so great that you wish you could visit! There is a slight love interest, but not in the conventional, angsty and predictable way it usually plays out. Really, truly one of the best I've read in a while.

"In her world, she'd been loved - by her sister, her mother, and even her Tristan - but Lily had never been necessary." It's out of context here, but this on p. 277 is a mind-blowing description of the difference between familial love & relationship love. If that makes no sense, read this book!

What a phrase! "She shouldn't want to wear Rowan like a pair of pants, or swallow him like a mouthful of chocolate. It just wasn't right." Really loving this mash-up of YA sci-fi, dystopian, fairy tale, action, etc.! (Please excuse my ineloquence. I've only had a couple sips of coffee so far.)

I finished this in audiobook format and was very pleased with this one! A world where witches rule, alternate dimensions, science and a love story.... Yes please 😍!! I'm on hold for the second book and can't wait to see where Lily/Liliane takes this adventure!

Read about 100 pages but it just didn't grab me. The parallel world+magic and Salem Witch aspects intrigued me at first but it wasn't enough to keep me going, sadly. I'll probably finish it one day, but this just isn't in the foreseeable future.
