Broken Moon by Sarah Beth Moore

LinnBooks

I just read the new book Broken Moon by Sarah Beth Moore, also known as newleafwriter on instagram. She contacted me and asked if I would like to read and review her book, which I of course wanted.

I have read self published books before and some are better than others. I am glad to say that Sarah’s book belongs to the better ones. It is well written and it comes as no surprise to find out she works as a copywriter.

I really enjoyed this book and I read it in a couple of days. The world were Naiya lives is about to turn upside down and she and her step brothers have to fight to survive and at the same time figure out who Naiya really is and what really is going on in their city.

It is set in a future dystopian city with high technology and surveillance and guards. It is quite different to other books I’ve read but still fits well into the young adult fantasy genre

Books I am looking forward to read

LinnBooks

Here are a few books that are newly released that I am looking forward to read.

The Dazzling Heights by Katherine McGee

I loved the Thousandth Floor which is the first book in this serie. I have been looking foward to this sequel now for over a year!

Wonder Woman – warbringer by Leigh Bardugo

Leigh Bardugo writing Wonder Woman! I don’t need to say more.

 

Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas

I wanted to write “I can’t get enough of Sarah J. Maas” but then I realised that I do get enough of her. I don’t particularly like her latest series about the fairie courts and I haven’t and probably won’t read that latest book. But Tower of Dawn belongs to the Throne of Glass serie that I do love. So this will be a fun read when I get to it.

 

Saker ingen ser av Anna Ahlund

Jag läste “Du, bara” i januari och gillar verkligen Annas skrivsätt. Det här är hennes nya bok och det ska bli roligt att läsa den och se vad hon hittat på denna gång!

Jag stickar en Afmaeli

LinnKnitting

Jag har för första gången tagit mig an utmaningen att göra en “knit-a-long”. Det är Järbo och Kammebornia som tillsammans håller i det hela. Pia skriver så fina och beskrivande instruktioner att jag ser fram emot varje nytt inlägg även om jag själ  inte har hunnit lika långt som det är tänkt.

Jag är själv förvånad över hur lätt det har varit att sticka denna tröja hitills. Arbetet har bara flutit på och jag är inte långt efter i tidsplanen. Det är så häftigt att se plagget växa fram och att inse att det nog går att sticka en tröja med isländskt mönster på en månad. #kammeborniaafmaeli

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street by Natasha Pulley

LinnBooks

 

I will be completely honest. I borrowed this book from the library only because of the pretty cover.

Blurb from the back:
“He lived his life like clockwork. Until he met the watchmaker.”

The story was very clever but for some reason the book just didn’t “speak” to me. It just didn’t hold my attention for long and so I think it took me a month to finish it. I would still recommend it though. I enjoyed the mystery and the concept a lot even though it took me some time to read it all. Natsasha Pulley has a new book coming out (or it might be released all ready) that I might read too.

Vanity in Dust is released!

LinnCrowns and Ash series

I hope it hasn’t gone unnoticed but Cheryl Low’s debut novel is now released. I just got my own copy today and I am so happy to have it in my collection of awesome fantasy books.

This book is different from other books in the fantasy genre. It’s sort of a high fantasy book but set in what seems to be a semi-modern setting.

I have loved this book from the very first time I read it years ago (I got to beta-read it a few times). Make sure to read it if you want to try something new!

 

Kretsen och Drömtjuvarna av Maggie Stiefwater

LinnBooks

  

Jag hade sett dessa omslag länge och läst mycket gott om serien. När jag nu hittade den som eböcker på Storytel så kunde jag inte låta bli att prova läsa dem. Vid skrivande stund har jag precis påbörjat den tredje och sista boken.

Jag gillar konceptet som Maggie har tagit fram och hur det utvecklar sig under böcketnas gång. Dessa böcker var mycket bättre än jag trodde de skulle vara. Rekommenderas varmt!
