That’s probably the old woman in me talking, but there is much to be said about a character with a bit of sass – especially when they can also be humourous.An enchanted island. They can be funny – especially when they don’t mean to be.
A lot of YA novels contain…well…young adults. It reminded me of what I love to see in stories – humor. Why I chose it: This quote made me laugh. The Quote: Your first lesson will be controlling your thoughts. I love Clare’s The Mortal Instrument series and I found this book had the same spirit: young heroine, family secrets, family history, magical beings living under the radar of everyday life – it’s got it. I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading it, but Vivien doesn’t lie when she says this book is for fans of Cassandra Clare. I come from a huge family (I am one of six kids) and anything that delves into sibling relationships always piques my interest. What I thought: One of the major themes of this book is family. Perfect for fans of Libba Bray, Cassandra Clare, and Leigh Bardugo. When darkness is coming, who do you trust?
