Discover what I thought of Lore by Alexandra Bracken!

When I picked up the Midnight Library by Matt Haig, I was not quite sure what to expect. I got the hardback for Christmas, and had heard rave reviews on bookstagram, and yet somehow, I still was not sold. The idea seemed almost childish, too simple… or maybe I was just sick of hyped books not living up to my expectations. This one, however, did…

I just want to start off by saying that this series has been undoubtedly my favourite of 2020, and I’ve read A LOT of books this year. (Thank you lockdown… at least you were good for my TBR if nothing else.) I haven’t read very many books based in Russian culture, an exeption being The Witches of St. Petersburg by Imogen Edward-Jones- a book which I also loved by the way.

As a fantasy author, I have a certain standard when it comes to reading books within my own genre, especially since the majority of endings I see coming a long way in advance. It’s an unfortunate by-product of crafting these kinds of stories, whereby you’re so used to the construction that you can see in books you’d rather not when playing the role of the reader and not the writer.

However, once in a while, a series comes along and takes my freaking breath away. Most recently, that series is Caraval, Legendary, and Finale by Stephanie Garber. The books have been generally well received, but I’d personally like to see them get even more press and more readers because they really are THAT GOOD.

Don’t believe me?

Here are the five reasons why I’m currently freaking obsessed with this series!
