“The Heir” is the last book pubished in the “Selection” series written by Kiera Cass, the last book in the series is planned to be published next year called  “The Crown”.
Eadlyn is going to inherit the kingdom her parents have work really hard to build. The castes were dissolved but they still matter to many people and there have been uprisings around the country. In order to mitigate this feeling the king came to the idea of making a new selection for princess Eadlyn. Beside her first opposition, she accepted with the condition that she would not have to marry anyone in the end if she does not fall in love. However, the selection will pull her out of her comfort zone more than she expected.
“The Heir” was a highly entertaining quick easy read. I think one of the best things is the depth of the main character, however I did find it quite repetitive and unnecessary. In my opinion the selection could have finished perfectly with “The One”. Nonetheless as I said about the previous one I really enjoyed the books and I think it was an original take on fairy tales as well as dystopia.

To sum up, “The Heir” was a good continuation to an entertaining and recommendable series. I will recommend you to continue these books but I like to think about this one  as a spin off of the series, since the selection until “The One” was a really good series which could have finished here.

Half Year Wrap Up and July TBR

Hello everyone, as I said on my update and favorites post I’m sorry I’ve been absent lately. Because of that, I’m not going to do a monthly wrap up, but a middle of the year wrap up. I can’t believe we have already hit the middle of the year, but here we are and I’m four books behind in my goodreads challenge, which is more or less like a month. It isn’t much considering how little time I have had to read, as well as many other things, and considering there were two months in which I didn’t finished one book.  We start with January, the best month reading wise I’ve had in years, I completed a total of 8 books in addition to a novella and a graphic novel. Not only that, I also highly enjoyed most books I read during that month  “Captivated by You” by Sylvia Day. The last book published in the Crossfire series, really liked it, and I can’t wait for the next book which I think might be the last. (4/5) “Conociendo a Raul” by Blue Jeans. The novella I read, prequel to “El Club de

This is a spin-off series of her previous work “Vampire Academy”. This time the plot centers around Sydney, which we met on the previous series as an alchemist, an “agency” that works on making the vampire world “invisible” to the human kind, and that way they protect humans from evil, vampires. The alchemists tolerate Moroi and Damphir, however they do not engage with them more than what is strictly necessary, they are still evil. Nonetheless, they have a worse evil as common enemy Strigoi. After what happened to Sydney and Adrian, Dimitry and Sonya, former Strigoi turned back into Damphir and Moroi by spirit, came to Palm Springs in order to investigate

Strife - Cate Tiernan

Tittle: Strife Author: Cate Tiernan Genre: Fiction, YA, Romance, fantasy, witches, magik, coming of age. Pages: 188 Publisher: Puffin Format: Digital (Kindle) Time to read it: 5 days Language: English Rating: 4/5 “Strife is the ninth book in the “Wicca/Sweep” series, a series that follows Morgan as she finds out about the existence of magik and her relationship with it. She discovers a new part of her life that threatens with run over everything else. Weird things start happening and the only one that can be blame is Morgan who is uninitiated, since now Ciaran is on the run, and Selene and Cal dead. Hunter brings someone to help her out but her solution to things kinds of goes to extreme. Also, Alisa leaves the coven, since all the things happening scared her off. “Strife” was a good book in the series but it got me lost a little bit. They introduced Alisa’s point of view which kinds of puts me off a little bit and all in all it was a little tedious
