In order to take this week’s photo for the Nature theme, I brought out The Chimes by Anna Smaill into the green. Rather than pay attention to the content of the book, I was more concerned with the aesthetic. The cover is bright and the colours pop, as do flowers in the wild. Although, it does feature the waters, which is essential to sustain nature.
THE WELL OF ASCENSION by Brandon Sanderson
The Well of Ascension was an amazing sequel! It carried on with the rich detail that The Final Empire introduced. I loved learning even more about Scadrial and advancing my understanding of Allomancy and Feruchemy.
Hot off the Press – July 11, 2016
Paperback releases and reprints are taking over this week. For those of you looking to fill your beach bags or to travel light, this is wondrous news. Go on over to your local bookstores before you’re off to seek respite in the sun.
Project 52 – Celebration
With Eid al-Fitr marking the end of Ramadan and US Independence Day on July 4, there’ve been a lot of celebrations over the past week. There’s so much joy to be had to gather together with family and friends. Looking at festivals around the year among different cultures, one thing is common among most — food, particularly sweet treats. For someone like me, who loves to bake, celebrations always are wondrous occasions to add delectable goods to the table.
THE DARK DAYS CLUB by Alison Goodman
When I first heard of The Dark Days Club, I was intrigued. Though I hadn’t read Jane Austen novels nor any of the popular series of Cassandra Clare, I knew those names held promise. Yes, Alison Goodman is an author unto herself but sometimes it’s hard to discount influences. With that, I first picked up Pride & Prejudice. It took me more than a month to reach page 84 before I got too exasperated and put it on hold. I didn’t try City of Bones. I dove into The Dark Days Club, not wanting to postpone it too long.
