“If I cannot be better than them, I will become so much worse.” - The Cruel Prince . . 🌟QOTD: have you ever been disappointed by the ending of a book or series? (No spoilers please and be respectful!) . . Hello friends and happy Sunday!! I hope everyone had a great weekend!! I have one more day of work and then a 4 day stretch off and couldn’t be more excited!! This is definitely an unpopular opinion but I hated the ending to this series! The Cruel Prince was okay, The Wicked King was awesome and The Queen of Nothing had so much potential but it just fell flat for me. I just wanted so much more and instead I got a very weird twist, which I still don’t fully understand where it came from. Anyway I still love how gorgeous the books look! I hope everyone has a relaxing Sunday! . . #BooksarePugaliciousJuly21 - Chaol: Unpopular Opinion #BookSummerLovin - Laia/Elias: forbidden love #DisneyLadiesJuly21 - Thumbelina: tiny book . . #thecruelprince #thewickedking #thequeenofnothing #hollyblack #folkoftheair #unpopularopinion #shelfiesunday #bookblog #unitedbookstagram #bookpics #instagramreads #fantasybooks #readersofinsta #vscoreads #bookster #yalovin #readreadread #ireadya #bookaddicted #totalbooknerd #idratherbereading #bookrecs #readeveryday #rainbowbookshelf https://www.instagram.com/p/CRMB2wMrHqb/?utm_medium=tumblr

“You could rattle the stars," she whispered. "You could do anything, if only you dared.” - Throne of Glass . . 🌟QOTD: what’s the longest series you’ve read? . . Hello friends and happy #stacksaturday well I mean kind of…lol more like a sideways stack but I still love it! Throne of Glass was definitely the longest page count series I think I’ve read although a few others definitely come close!! I struggled a bit to push through but I am so so glad I did because I absolutely loved this series!! I had no idea when I read the first book what this series would turn into and looking back on it I’m still so amazed that I thought it was this simple book about a competition…hahaha boy was I wrong!!!

🚨 Cover Reveal! 🚨 . . 🌟QOTD: if you could mix two stories which would you choose?! . . I am so excited to be participating in the cover reveal for this gorgeous beauty by @alexandriawarwick called The North Wind!! When I read the synopsis and heard it was a standalone, enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance that was a combo of Hades/Persephone meets Beauty/the Beast I was hooked!! Check out the synopsis below for more info: . . Long before civilization, there were the gods. And before the gods, there was the earth, the celestial bodies, and air given flesh. They are the Anemoi—the Four Winds—and they have been banished to the four corners of the world. Wren of Edgewood is no stranger to suffering. Her parents are gone. Survival is all she knows. For three hundred years, the land known as the Gray has been encased in ice, surrounded by a great barrier called the Shade, which protects the townsfolk from the Deadlands beyond. But day by day, the Shade weakens. Only one thing can stop the Shade’s fall: a mortal woman taken captive across the barrier, bound in wedlock to the dark god who reigns over the Deadlands. He is the North Wind, the Frost King, an immortal whose heart is said to be as frigid as the land he rules. And the time has come for the Frost King to choose his bride. . . This beauty will be out Jan 2022 so be sure to add it to goodreads in the meantime!!

“You can achieve everything in this world, but if it’s for someone else, it’s pointless.

As much as I talk a big game I’m definitely a big scaredy cat!! I know if I came face to face with Anastacya Mikhailov I would be soooo nervous!! Obviously she’s a sweetheart when you aren’t trying to destroy her country but still those eyes would be nerve wrecking!! If you haven’t checked out this series yet I HIGHLY recommend it!! It’s got magical affinities, political power plays, and a serious slow burn romance!! I cannot wait for the gorgeous third and final book!!
