β€œYou didn’t get to be the villain of one story, she supposed, unless you were the hero of another.” ⚘ I am posting my full review soon on my blog. I liked this book but enjoyed book 1 more. I love the fact that they both work as a standalone though. ⚘ I think the author has great characters, writing and humor. His works show experience rather than being a new author. I will read whatever comes next in the series. #QOTD: What fantasy books made you laugh?
β€œI could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.” 🍁 This was one of the few books I gave 5 stars to this year! I love mythology and Miller is an artist when it comes to that. I loved almost everything about this book. 🍁 I read Circe before this one but I actually enjoyed this one more. I am looking forward to her other books although I think her next book is a tempest retelling. #QOTD: Which author's debut do you like more than their other books?
β€œThe most dangerous kind of man is not the one who spent his youth shoving others around. That kind of man gets lazy, and is often too content with his life to be truly dangerous. The man who spent his youth being shoved around, however … When that man gets a little power and authority, he often uses it to become a tyrant on par with the worst warlords in history.” πŸ– I have been in the mood to read something by Brandon for a while and The Rithmatist delivered exactly what I was looking for. πŸ– Brandon proves again that he is a master of world building and magical systems! I loved learning about this world and how everything works! I can't wait for book 2 whenever it gets out! #QOTD: what is our favorite Brandon Sanderson book/ series?
β€œYou’re always you, and that don’t change, and you’re always changing, and there’s nothing you can do about it.” πŸ‘» Neil Gaiman is a hit or miss type of author for me. I did not like his Good Omens or American Gods books but I love Norse mythology and I enjoyed this one. πŸ‘» It has been on my shelves for a while but I finally picked it up because of Halloween and the spookythons that were going everywhere in the book community! #QOTD: Which author is a hit or miss author of yours?
"It is the first day of November and so, today, someone will die" 🐎 One of my book rituals whenever I buy a new book is reading the dedication and opening line. 🐎 When I checked this one, it had this opening line and I knew I was going to keep it for the 1st of November! Maggie has one of my favorite writing'd ever so can't wait to read this one! #QOTD: what are your book rituals?
I am hosting my first bookstagram giveaway as promised. I am almost reaching 400 posts on my blog and it is a custom of mine to host a giveaway every 100 posts.
