I’ve got two bite-sized reviews for you today, both fantasies! I hope these bite-sized reviews will be enough to feed your fiction addiction! One thing that I LOVE about this series is that it isn’t told from the perspective of the “special snowflake” or the “Chosen One.” Really, when I think about it, this series would normally be told from the POV of Princess Lyriana—not only a princess, but also a powerful mage. Or even […]

This Shattered World is an amazing follow-up to These Broken Stars!! In fact, I think I may have liked this second installment in the series better than the first. I absolutely could not put this book down! One thing that I’m loving about this series is that each book really is a standalone novel. We get the full story arc all in one book with no cliffhangers, yet we’re still left wanting more. This Shattered […]

But the planet seems to be […]
