Hello! πŸ‘‹πŸ» Yesterday was the first day of spring 🌸 and today we had a snow day ❄️ Yep, four inches of snow the day after the first day of spring. Welcome to Ohio, baby! Tomorrow, it will probably be 60 degrees and sunny β˜€οΈβ € β€’β € Anyway ... so I took the opportunity to take some nice snow shots, this being my favorite from one of my favorite books last year! Seriously, if you haven't had the opportunity to meet the Dregs, then you really should take the time to do it this spring! πŸŒ·β € β€’β € #iamsweetMarch : Book with "King" in the title (KINGdom counts LOL) πŸ‘‘β € #literarylifemarch : Sentences - best lines β € #BookishLyWritey : The Great Unknown - a book you took a chance on β € #DuskAngelMar18 : Fantasy book πŸ¦„ β € #AddictionFictionMarch : Deliciously Darkβ € #MeltingPagesMarch : Favorite Female Characterβ € #jessbookishmarch : Female Warriorsβ € β€’β € β€’β € Q: What are some of your favorite books to curl up with?

Okay, I have to express my love for this series! πŸ“š Now I'm not quite finished with NOW I RISE, pictured above, so mostly I'm talking about AND I DARKEN, the first book. β € I picked up AID on a whim one day last year and fell absolutely in love. To be honest, I pretty much feel in love as soon as I saw the line: "No one expects a princess to be brutal." πŸ‘‘ And doesn't that just perfectly describe the whole book? Lada takes the word "brutal" to the extreme - she was savage, vicious, ferocious, ruthless, merciless and a smidge sadistic. πŸ–€ She had her eyes on the prize and nothing gets in her way. πŸ† And even though she could be quite callous towards her brother, Radu, he is really the only thing in the world she truly loved πŸ’ β € AND I DARKEN takes us through the ups and downs of Lada and Radu's life, through their life. Lada grew up in a place where girls are revered for their beauty and their docile-ness, not for power or intelligence πŸ‘ΈπŸ» Which she certainly doesn't subscribe to, determined to pave her own way. For Radu, he was expected to be a manly-man and fight the fights, but he was a softer boy, built for cunning not strength. Radu was definitely the subtle to Lada's WHAM. β € And though Lada's brutal-ness was the highlight of the novel, the complexity of the novel and White's writing is the best part πŸ’• β € It was just so vivid! It takes place around the time of the Ottoman Empire and the culture was just so ... vivid and believable! The language, too, was much like it's main character, hilariously honest and vicious βš”οΈβ € I would 10/10 recommend this bout of cruel savagery, with emphasis on the bonds of friendship illustrated through Mehmed (the Sultan and love interest), Radu and Lada. It just kind of pulls you in, you know? You know it's good when the writing just yanks you out of your chair and shoves you face first into the story πŸ’• β€’ β€’ πŸ”Έ Q: Have you read this series? What are some of your favorite female-power books? β€’ β€’ #covertocover #covertocoverlit #covertocoverbooks #blogger #bloggers #read #reading #amreading #currentlyreading #ya #kierstenwhite #fivestar #bookworm #bookblogger #bookblog #bookblogging #recommendedread

This is the #1 best book I've read this year. β € I've always loved books featuring fictional book dragons (like me and you) - but Eliza takes it to a completely new level. She is a Fangirl Queen!! Not only because she INSPIRES fangirls and fanboys with her world-famous webcomic, but because she is one as well. It really is true that a book series can save a person - and Eliza proves that :) As a blogger and fellow fangirl, I connected with her realistically in a way that I never have with a character. I can't wait to reread this! Thank you @owlcrate for this lovely find. β € ----------------------------β € If you loved Eliza and Her Monsters by @chessiezappia or think you'll love it (you will), click the link in my bio to see an exclusive love letter between Eliza and her man :) ALSO, if you leave a comment on my blog post, you will be entered into a fantastic giveaway for @authornalinisingh 's SILVER SILENCE (which I just finished holy shit wow πŸ’•
