Disenchanted is a wonderful Cinderella retelling talking about a very important subject. Unlike its predecessor, Grounded, the novel focuses on multiple POVs and really makes us care about each character. Ella is a wonderful character and a strong person struggling through the death of her beloved mother and her father's remarriage. Her father only finally succeeded after the death of her mother and the fact her mother isn’t around to see it is devastating for her.
The Buried and the Bound is a wonderful novel about Aziza, a capable witch who will go to great lengths to protect her town. Leo, a boy with gaps in his memory and a desperation to get answers about the person he has forgotten, and Tristan a necromancer whose life fell apart after he made a deal with the wrong person. “The Buried and the Bound” left me spellbound while reading and even after. It went inches from becoming my newest hyper fixation.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is about 11-year-old Harry Potter who discovers something magical. He’s a wizard. The book follows Harry through his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This book really keeps you on your toes because there are so many good plot twists. I thought the theme of teamwork in this book was great. My favorite part is when Harry first learns he’s a wizard and my favorite characters are Hermione Granger and Hagrid. This is my favorite book of all time.
Dark Heir is the second book in the series. Go read Dark Rise!! (I promise, it is so good). There’ll be spoilers for it in this review. Oh, my goodness Pacat, these books are criminal! (In the sense that they’re criminally good, keep working on the third book please.) In this sequel, C.S.
City of Dusk follows a ragtag group of heirs to the throne, each possessing a different kind of magic from their godly ancestor. With a morally grey protagonist, and chaotic gods bringing destruction, the four heirs will have to face the trials ahead of them. Traveling through the different worlds, and being chased by monsters across the realms, Risha, Taesia, Nikolas, and Angleica will have to find exactly what makes them special while facing off against each other and their gods.
So you know the basic idea of the fairy-tale and folklore-inspired fiction: Princess Aurore had a christening party which was interrupted by a slighted uninvited guest who casts a curse over the poor child. In the fantasy fiction curse when she turns 16 she will prick her finger and one drop of blood will fall and Aurore will die. Another guest utters a counterspell in the suspenseful tale, and the guest at least is not a fairy in this book.
