Review: Sorcery of Thorns

Sorcery of Thorns Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A book about a book.
yep, we want more of these!

Slow claps for Margaret Rogerson for making us feel so doomed bout our very own existence, by portraying an M/C who was born and brought up in a library, have read countless no. of books, wants to become a warden, who talks to books and the books also listen to her as well. On top of that, she plays a sword like a feisty warrior goddess.
If this hasn't made you feel shitty, the fact that this extremely broody, tall, handsome, wicked-mouthed sorcerer declares his love for her, will urge you to kill yourself.

I love the fact that this is one of the few fantasies which broke the stereotypical portrayal of characters. First of all, Elizabeth is tall, she is freakishly tall and yeah she's not emotionally constipated. Brownie points to that.
Nathaniel is bi, which is so rare especially in the fantasy genre.

All of the characters are AMAZING. And the romance is shoooooo cute<3
The setting, world-building, and elements of the magical library are quintessential. Margaret Rogerson is one of those few authors who make you feel atmospheric about the entire fantasy setting with amazing, less-annoying M/Cs and you can go never wrong with her books.

Review: Queen of Air and Darkness

Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare My rating: 5 of 5 stars The amount of pain this book has driven me through is immersive!!! Especially in the first part of the book. Where everything started falling apart, and later in the second part things started to get a little better, it started getting more and more worse. Out of 900 pages, only the last 100 pages were kind of relief and happy-happy moment, yet you are always scared because Cassie can do literally anything in the last 10 pages and be like "Oh I don't think it is such a big deal, ykr I can do worse?!" Also, the epilogue. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I want an explanation of what is going to happen. This Jace from parallel dimension Thule, he's after Clary now. Gosh. My head is already breaking. There were many moments in this book, which made me sob like a maniac. The starting itself was so chaotic, with the death of Robert Lightwood, Livia Blackthorn. During the funera...

Review: The Nine-Chambered Heart

The Nine-Chambered Heart: Free Sampler by Janice Pariat My rating: 4 of 5 stars View all my reviews Beautifully written and absolutely acquisitive, The Nine Chambered Heart deals with exclusively vivid perspectives of 9 different characters who were in relation with the same women through her different phases of life. Our unnamed protagonist is mute throughout the story and you will never get to listen to her side of the same in this book, which makes you perceive that this could be your story or of someone you know! The entire pace of the book is completely lyrical which is Janice Pariat's style of writing and is remarkable. There are no cliffhangers and plot twists  BUT BUT  as mentioned earlier the writing will make you fall for this simple and lucid story. You will meet various perspectives in this story and not a single character is named and all their lucid memories about this young woman. The way each character describes...
