Books I've read since blogger stopped posting from my phone...

Why has the app stopped posting for me? Not sure. I've read a several books though, but in between life being crazy and the app being annoying I haven't posted about them in a while.

Spark of Light- Jodi Picoult

Adult book about the abortion debate. Wouldn't have picked it up, but went to her book talk and was given a copy. It was pretty interesting.


The Hotel Between - Sean Easley

Middle grade book about a hotel that connects to different places around the world. Missing parents, intrigue, conspiracy. It was a good read.

Legendary - Stephanie Garber

Second book in a trilogy. Caraval, Legendary, Finale (out this May). I didn't like it as much as the first, but I do really want to read the third still. Reserving my opinion on the series until I get to finish it.
Legendary - (Caraval) by Stephanie Garber (Hardcover)

Spin the Dawn - Elizabeth Lim

This was a really cool and different book. YA Fantasy - reminded me a little of Mulan at the start, but it totally its own thing.

96 Words for Love - Rachel Roy & Ava Dash

This was a cute book. Set in India (mostly), it's a YA book about a girl looking for her direction in life and a connection to her family.

Shadowsong - S. Jae-Jones

The second in a series - Wintersong is the first. Isn't this cover glorious? A strong follow-up; I'm often disappointed in sequels. YA Fantasy.

The Wizards of Once: Twice Magic - Cressida Cowell 

None of the pictures I could find matched the cover of the ARC that I read. My copy ws missing all of the pictures from the second half of the book - just not done yet. Also, I got the non-Americanized version of the words. Yay.

This is the second in the series. I gave the first one away to my student teacher last year. This was a cute second book, but I'll hand this copy off to someone as well.
