SUMMER BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS ☀️

what i think makes it stand out despite having that familiar setup is that the setting really is so vivid and vibrant it just feels so alive

either way i thought this was highly entertaining from start to finish i had such a good time with it i really enjoyed the characters even though i often hated the characters

the sister relationship i think was done exceptionally well they argued they were bitter towards each other sometimes but also ultimately they loved each other with their entire hearts they're very protective of one another but they're also very different people

the degree of good and evil in this is fantastic because you have some people that are a little more morally gray you have our sweet lovely heroes even they're flawed and you get these really heartwarming moments with them and then you have characters that are like ultimate evil but there's everything along the way

it's very adorable there's a lot of silly references in it i think it's great if you're somebody who's looking for something super precious super just you can eat it up in a sitting and also if you yourself feel that you're a bit nerdy the fandom culture that's touched on in the story i think is very relatable

switching gears and going to ultimate preciousness and that would be love and gelato this is very cute very wholesome

this is the densest book on this list but it's definitely great if you are a big fan of fantasy and that would be malice by john gwynne

this is a fantastic action-packed sci-fi story so where skyward is a little bit more for i would say a younger audience or at least it's maybe not as intense and dark and violent red rising is it's all the above it's very intense it's very dark it's very violent

like i said spence's arc throughout the story is phenomenal but another aspect of this book that i think is great is the camaraderie and almost a found family with the other people who are also wanting to become pilots and protect their planet

trisha levinseller i've read a few different books by them warrior of the wild shadows between us those are also very highly entertaining

vicious and its sequel vengeful i just think are so universally appealing to so many different people because it's not too hard on the sci-fi fantasy aspects that it's gonna lose some people it's not so rooted in our own world that it's no longer appealing to people who appreciate fantasy and sci-fi it's just a perfect mix and it's dark and twisted and a little bit eerie

you're jumping around all over the place it seems like it would be disorienting it's not it's crafted masterfully

there's two books that i always end up recommending on recommendations lists one of them is war breaker that i held off i did not recommend war breaker today although i still that one's also good for summer
