📚 🅱🅾🅾🅺 🆃🅾🆄🆁 🆁🅴🆅🅸🅴🆆 📚 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗚𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦: 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗜𝗖 by Helena M. Craggs 👿👿👿👿👿 I have wanted to share my thoughts on this book for weeks. I am so fortunate to take part in the book tour hosted by Love Books Tours, and today its my turn to post my review. Thanks for my spot on the tour and for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. 𝗠𝗬 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 Ever since I read book one, I’ve been chomping at the bit to continue the story created by Helena M. Craggs. As with every continuing book in a series, you wonder if it will live up to the hype created by it’s predecessor. This was no different, but I’m so happy to report that it has in fact improved on what I found to be a brilliant YA supernatural romance/thriller. I love the characters, each nicely developed further by the author, with their distinct personalities, which all seem to fit together like pieces in a jigsaw. I have read books where several characters can become confusing, but these Younglings Quinn and Eve, Millie and Harry, Leo and Miguel, and their ghost friend Eloise, simply compliment each other, playing their parts in carrying the story forward. I even love Mrs D, hooves and all. The burgeoning love between Quinn and Eve is growing, even in the face of mortal peril. I’ve I been routing for them all along. I love the way the relationships have become stronger as the story progresses. I found the story exciting and definitely a part of the ‘Just one more chapter’ trap. But staying up late to finish the book was totally worth it. This is such a brilliant continuation of The Younglings, that I’m already wondering where the author will take them next. I honestly cannot recommend this book, this series, enough, and not only to YA readers. Everyone would enjoy it, sharing the magic, and opening their imagination to this book. I gave The Younglings: Fire & Magic, by Helena M Craggs, five demons 👿, and can’t wait to see where they go next time. #ad #gifted #theyounglings #fireandmagic #fireandmagictour #helenamcraggs #lovebookstours #mystery #cult #booklover #bookstagrammers #johnsbookshelf #bookstabloggers #bookreader #blogtour #bookstagram (at Southampton, England, U.K.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfNHcWLrFhA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Your enthusiasm and excitement is pretty cute.” Ali giggled, “Not to mention your smile but there’s a bunch of things really. It’d take all day, Smiff!”

Ali gave a soft squeak when she felt lips on her neck, her face flushing while unconsciously tilting her head slightly to give Smiffy better access to her skin. “W-Well hello to you too..” She squeaked out softly.

“Ah? No its okay. I’ll be alright, Smiffy, don’t worry.” Ali smiled despite the pain that ached through her body. Bandages wrapped around her left arm that had suffered the most damage. Multiple lacerations that would surely create new scars to add to the mess that already decorated her skin. But at least she would live.

Ali blinked as she looked up at Smiffy, smiling with a small laugh as a faint blue blush colored her face. “I have no problems with that in the slightest.” She hummed as she reached up to pull the other down and give him the kiss he desired.

It was just another late night heist, something she could use to blow off steam. Blair sat in the back of the van, carefully adjusting each one of her weapons. She kept an eye on how much fuel her favorite weapon, a flamethrower she nicknamed 'Hellfire' had. Her best friend Zeno, a huge white Great Pyranesse laid beside the weapons, in a suit of custom made armor. The teen knew of the new threat, a heister who hijacked heists. But she came prepared, pulling on her burnt Black Panther mask and dashing towards her target building. Burn n' Loot was her tactic's name.

A strange and somewhat indescribable scent but to Ali, it reminded her of Smiffy. She couldn’t help but smile as her face flushed blue. He was so sweet to her and she adored him.
