Recensione Darken the Stars di Amy A. Bartol

Buonasera, ho deciso di pubblicare una vecchia recensione perché ho riletto un po' di tempo fa questo libro e mi sono accorta che nel 2017 avevo preparato una recensione. Sicuramente ora la scriverei un po' diversamente, ma è pronta e tenerla come bozza non ha utilità. Continuo ad amare come allora questo libro e vi continuo a consigliare la lettura.


Titolo: Darken the Stars
Autrice: Amy A. Bartol
Serie: Kricket #3
Editore: 47North
Pubblicazione: 2015
Pagine: 302
Genere: Romantico, Fantasy

Kyon Ensin finally has what he’s always wanted: possession of Kricket Hollowell, the priestess who foresees the future. Together, their combined power will be unrivaled. Kricket, however, doesn’t crave the crown of Ethar—she has an unbreakable desire to live life on her own terms, a life that she desperately wants to share with her love, Trey Allairis.

As conspiracies rage in the war for Ethar, Kricket’s so-called allies want to use her as a spy. Even those held closest cannot be trusted—including Astrid, her sister, and Giffen, a member of a mysterious order with a hidden agenda. But Kricket’s resolve will not allow her to be used as anyone’s pawn, even as the Brotherhood sharpens its plans to cut out her heart.

As the destiny prophesied by her mother approaches, Kricket will backtrack through her fiery future to reshape it. For she knows one thing above all else: the only person she can truly count on is herself.

Recensione The Iron King di Julie Kagawa

 Buongiorno, è passato tanto tempo dall'ultima volta che sono arrivata a pubblicare una recensione, sono piena di recensioni a metà ma questa non potevo lasciarla a mezzo. Questo libro è arrivato in un momento delicato, proprio quando non dovevo distrarmi ma è stata una bellissima distrazione dagli esami.



Titolo: The Iron King
Autrice: Julie Kagawa
Serie: The Iron Fey #1
Editore: Inkyard Press
Pubblicazione: 2020
Pagine: 432
Genere: Young adult, Paranormal Romance

MY NAME IS MEGHAN CHASE.

In less than twenty-four hours, I’ll be sixteen. Countless stories, songs and poems have been written about this wonderful age, when a girl finds true love and the stars shine for her and the handsome prince carries her off into the sunset.

I DON’T THINK IT WILL BE THAT WAY FOR ME.

Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan Chase’s life, ever since her father disappeard when she was six. Ten years later, when her little brother also goes missing, Meghan learns the truth—she is the secret daughter of a mythical faery king and a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she’ll go to save someone she loves, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face…and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart.
