To start this off, I absolutely loved this book, it's now one of my favorites ever. I’ve read the

entire shatter me series and this is by far my favorite. It continues the story of Juliette and her

journey to take down The Reestablishment. Warner is my favorite book boy out of any book I’ve

ever read. She now has to rely on him, someone she never thought she’d even like to begin

with. Along with simply such an interesting plot, the romance in this book is just to die for.

This book got me out of one of my worst reading slumps I’ve ever had. Filled with faeries, the

human world, ideas of patriarchy and power, and more, this book is more than anything I

could’ve asked for or even expected. An enemies to friends to maybe lovers, admiration from

afar, all of which are some of my favorite tropes personally. The two main characters, Jude, a

human living in the Faerie world, and Carden, the youngest son to the High King of Faerie.

The Land Of Stories: A Grimm Warning

This is the 3rd book in the series “Land of

Stories”. This book is one of my favorite

books in the series since this is when

things start to drastically change for the

main characters in the book. The first two

books' main purposes are to set the scene

and enable the reader to emerge into the

world of the stories. This book is what

starts to set the theme for how the rest of

The Land of Stories: Wishing Spell is a book about

two twin siblings who get stuck in the book of

fairytales provided by their grandmother. The

book takes us through their journey as they

explore the new world and face completely unknown

dangers of the book. I highly recommend this book

for young kids, especially those in middle school

since that is the age of the characters in the

book. Personally, this is one of my favorite

A beautiful story, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab takes you away to a new

world--one where a girl named Addie makes a deal with the “devil”. The book takes you on an

adventure as Addie tells her story of how she lives to hundreds of years old, experiencing wars,

corruption, and success--and finds love within it. Schwab’s writing style of building off of mainly

flashbacks draws readers tightly into the story, with its ups and downs and chapters full of

Vengeful by V.E. Schwab is one of the only sequels that I thoroughly enjoyed and am content

with the ending. Just like its prequel, Vicious

pain and illness, which limits his powers and increasingly weakens him each day. Mitch and
