this trilogy i think so many people end up falling in love with it because of the characters and it has such a cool premise
16 FANTASY BOOKS UNDER 400 PAGES | short books
for me it's less so about the characters and it's more about the aesthetic and the feeling and the sort of terror that it brings about in you but also the terror that is experienced by children in particular
the first book it feels kind of plotless and it stops at a really weird place so if it is something that sounds somewhat interesting to you i would say you probably want to read on to the second maybe even the third books
the two main love interests of this story i just found their chemistry to be so fun the development of their relationship was fun but also the fantasy components were great
this story follows a girl named alina who discovers that she might be the chosen one so has a chosen one trope who will save her country of ravka from this divide that has plagued them
the writing style is very beautiful and i would say quite lyrical but also there's a matureness to the story and there is not probably any other book i've ever read that has made me feel colder while reading it's very atmospheric and there's a lot of folklore woven into the story
there's a lot of themes in this story of ties to your family the love you have for your family these ancestral connections that you have i think the way that's woven into the story is very beautiful but there's also this charm to the story this sort of fairy tale feel
the story is very dark and very eerie perfect to pick up for halloween or for the fall if you're somebody who likes that moodiness in your stories
next up we have two more standalones that i think are great if you need a fun pick-me-up these are also both young adult one of them is warrior of the wild and one of us is shadows between us i've mentioned these quite a few times because this author is definitely my go-to when i need a fun book
well i didn't love achilles in the story because he is so consumed with his own legacy i did really like the author's writing style in this
i love just the way this book is made up but also it's got such morally gray characters so if you're somebody who's into characters that are very flawed and they lean on the villainous side this is the book for you
next up we have two more standalones that i think are great if you need a fun pick-me-up these are also both young adult one of them is warrior of the wild and one of us is shadows between us i've mentioned these quite a few times because this author is definitely my go-to when i need a fun book
then with witch's heart which stole my heart i loved this one it follows angra boda who was loki's witch wife
