#WinterGames24 #HolidayBookDragons #ShardlakeansBuddyRead #Adventathon #SeriesLove23 #SnikerdoodleSpiritReadathon #ReadAway24 #WinterSolticeReadathon Even though we are to read 1/2 this book this month I thought I would count the hours read for the Games and pts. So far, I am intrigued and can't wait for the discussion at the end of this month. @dabbe @Andrew65 @TheSpineView @BookmarkTavern @Bookwormjillk @DieAReader @StayCurious

pickSet in Spain during the Inquisition, this is a story about a scullery maid with some small magical abilities. In a desperate effort to improve her life, she allows herself to be swept up in the politics of ambitious men and women who attempt to improve their social positions by exploiting her. She finds unexpected friends, a dark and tortured soul to fall in love with (who can‘t resist that?), and discovers the depths of her magic. Fun read.
pickWhile listening to this audiobook, I found my mind wandering.
The female main character is orphaned, and her sister has been taken to be part of the evil king's harem. She vows to rescue her sister no matter what.
The story is based on true events in Korea in the 1500s.

pickThis was a pretty good read. I enjoyed the setting and the characters, but I did feel like it was a bit slow in parts and the action just wasn‘t there. It took awhile to get moving and I was hoping for more to keep me interested. Overall, I really enjoyed the story and would read more by this author.
