💬 Happy Tuesday… aka New Release Day! Did you pick up any new releases today? Add any to your TBR? 🤎📖 Happy Release Day to @tanviberwah and Monsters Born and Made! 🎉 Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and These Violent Delights, this South Asian-inspired fantasy is a gripping debut about the power of the elite, the price of glory, and one girl's chance to change it all. Thank you to @sourcebooksfire for gifting me this copy! . . . s u m m a r y : Sixteen-year-old Koral and her older brother Emrik risk their lives each day to capture the monstrous maristags that live in the black seas around their island. They have to, or else their family will starve. In an oceanic world swarming with vicious beasts, the Landers―the ruling elite, have indentured Koral's family to provide the maristags for the Glory Race, a deadly chariot tournament reserved for the upper class. The winning contender receives gold and glory. The others―if they're lucky―survive. When the last maristag of the year escapes and Koral has no new maristag to sell, her family's financial situation takes a turn for the worse and they can't afford medicine for her chronically ill little sister. Koral's only choice is to do what no one in the world has ever dared: cheat her way into the Glory Race. But every step of the way is unpredictable as Koral races against contenders―including her ex-boyfriend―who have trained for this their whole lives and who have no intention of letting a low-caste girl steal their glory. When a rebellion rises and rogues attack Koral to try and force her to drop out, she must choose―her life or her sister's―before the whole island burns. She grew up battling the monsters that live in the black seas, but it couldn't prepare her to face the cunning cruelty of the ruling elite. . . . h a s h t a g s : #monstersbornandmade #tanviberwah #yabooks #yabookstagram #youngadult #yafantasy #yafantasybooks #bookstagrammer #booklove #totalbooknerd #booksinhand #bookmoments #wildbooks #bookseverywhere #cosymood #thecreative #livethelittlethings #postwhatyoulove #instaphotos https://www.instagram.com/p/CiLcWdRu9C7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💬 Do you like a little mystery in your books? I’m always looking for a good mystery! I also love the boarding school setting, so this seems like the perfect mix! Thank you to @sourcebooksfire for gifting me this copy! . . . s u m m a r y : Once Upon a Time meets Pretty little liars. Four troubled friends, One murdered girl... and a dark fate that may leave them all doomed. After the mysterious death of their best friend, Ella, Yuki, and Rory are the talk of their elite school, Grimrose Académie. The police ruled it a suicide, but the trio are determined to find out what really happened. When Nani Eszes arrives as their newest roommate, it sets into motion a series of events they couldn't have imagined. As the girls retrace their friend's last steps, they uncover dark secrets about themselves and their destinies, discovering they're all cursed to repeat the brutal and gruesome endings to their stories until they can break the cycle.

💬 Let’s do a yummy fall-themed This or That today! (Can you tell I’m hungry right now? 😋) . ✧ Apple crisp or pumpkin pie? ✧ Pumpkin spice latte or cinnamon chai tea? ✧ Hot cocoa or hot apple cider? ✧ Caramel apples or s’mores? . . Thank you to @epicreads for this gorgeous finished copy of Among the Beasts and Briars by @_ashposton! I have loved everything I’ve read by Ashley Piston, so to say I’m excited for this gorgeous book is an understatement. This one released this week, so be sure to grab yourself a copy! . . . s u m m a r y ⇣ Cerys is safe in the kingdom of Aloriya. Here there are no droughts, disease, or famine, and peace is everlasting. It has been this way for hundreds of years, since the first king made a bargain with the Lady who ruled the forest that borders the kingdom. But as Aloriya prospered, the woods grew dark, cursed, and forbidden. Cerys knows this all too well: when she was young, she barely escaped as the woods killed her friends and her mother. Now Cerys carries a small bit of the curse—the magic—in her blood, a reminder of the day she lost everything. The most danger she faces now, as a gardener’s daughter, is the annoying fox who stalks the royal gardens and won’t leave her alone. As a new queen is crowned, however, things long hidden in the woods descend on the kingdom itself. Cerys is forced on the run, her only companions the small fox from the garden, a strange and powerful bear, and the magic in her veins. It’s up to her to find the legendary Lady of the Wilds and beg for a way to save her home. But the road is darker and more dangerous than she knows, and as secrets from the past are uncovered amid the teeth and roots of the forest, it’s going to take everything she has just to survive. . . . h a s h t a g s ⇣ #amongthebeastsandbriars #ashleyposton #bookobsessed #bibliophiles #coverlove #mybookstagram #wildbooks #booknerdigans #pursuepretty #bookseverywhere #cosymood #livethelittlethings #thecreative #dowhatyoulove #visualcrush #booksaremagic #yabookcommunity #yabookstagrammer #autumndecor https://www.instagram.com/p/CGpbrsHnqyj/?igshid=4so4h2vquo08
