I am enjoying this fairy tale book. I have about an hour left.
Chris is the one that is narrating it.

I love books about dragons and dragon riders. This book felt a little different in that most of the dragons were mean jerks and their riders not much better. In this world, dragon riders are revered but to be one means a painful death will happen probably sooner than later. These dragons can have many riders over their lifetimes.

I liked the story of Anahrod. I think my favorite parts were when she was in the jungle. That was fascinating.

I think this describes all of Marie Lu's works. She is an autobuy for me.

One of the things that I love most about this book is the naming of the characters. There are names suited very well to the fantasy genre like Althea, Keffria, Malta, Grag, Wintrow, and Brashen to name a few. Then there's Kyle. And yes, Kyle sucks as a person. He's the absolute worst. His name stands out among the rest like a sore thumb and I think it's by design maybe? Idk, but I think it's hilarious.

I mean, really, how was I supposed to resist this? This is 75% of why I bought this book.

And I spent the last of my gift card (and then a little more) on these beauties. I know nothing about any of them, but it‘s been a while since I blindly browsed. 🤞🏻 they‘re good! #bookhaul

The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi | Shannon Chakraborty

Pickpick

#auldlangspine Book 3 is another fantastic read. Chakraborty‘s Daevabad trilogy is one of my favorites & this book has been on my TBR since its release. Amina did not disappoint! I loved the older female pirate & her crew. The blending of historical & fantastical elements creates a richly imagined world full of adventure. It is also an interesting portrait of a woman trying to juggle her passion for adventure with her desire to be a good mother.⬇️

MeganAnn I also loved the interjections of the storyteller giving us more information. The only thing I wasn‘t sold on was that at some points in the story this felt more modern than the historical setting would imply. And while I do think because this is ultimately a fantasy novel that wouldn‘t necessarily be an issue, in this case it pulled me out of the setting rather than lent itself to the fantasy elements. But that‘s a very small thing. 4.5⭐️ now

I‘ve been wanting to start reading Sanderson for quite some time now so I‘m excited to be a part of #CosmereBuddyRead with @JacqMac ! I‘m excited for our discussion this week as I still have many questions but I just couldn‘t put it down and finished it today. I love the unique magic system based on different metals and I‘m obsessed with our main character Vin. I cannot wait to see how this storyline picks up in book 2! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

JamieArc I‘ve been wanting to read Sanderson too but have no idea where to begin. Would you say this is a good one to start with? 41m
behudd Yay!!! Welcome to the Cosmere! It‘s incredible ✨ 35m
Meshell1313 @JamieArc yes absolutely! Why don‘t you join our buddy read? @JacqMac hosts a discussion on each part every Tuesday. You can easily catch up as we were only up to part 2- I just couldn‘t stop reading it. On her page, she has a list of alllllll of the Sanderson books and the reading order we will tackle them in! Check it out for sure! 8m
JamieArc @Meshell1313 I am terrible about committing to reading certain books but I‘ll check out the list - thanks! 3m
DogMomIrene Ohhhh👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 My reading has been all over this week, so I‘m just about to finish Part 1. Hoping to read a good chunk tomorrow though. I‘m loving it so far, so it‘s good to read that someone else is obsessed with Vin! now
