Tag: Halloween

It’s this is my TBR season. So while I haven’t done too many challenges in October, I’m doing this one.

1) Trick or Treat: For this TBR prompt it was about adding either an old or a new book by flipping a coin , I got a new book, and I decided to go with the Last Windwitch. Not only because it Halloween but because I’ve been wanting to read it for awhile as well.

The Last Windwitch

Many years ago, in the kingdom of Fenwood Reach, there was a powerful Windwitch who wove the seasons, keeping the land bountiful and the people happy. But then a dark magic drove her from the realm, and the world fell into chaos.

Brida is content in her small village of Oak Hollow. There, she’s plenty occupied trying to convince her fickle magic to actually do what it’s meant to in her work as a hedgewitch’s apprentice—until she accidentally catches the attention of the wicked queen.

On the run from the queen’s huntsman and her all-seeing Crow spies, Brida discovers the truth about her family, her magic, and who she is destined to be—and that she may hold the power to defeating the wicked queen and setting the kingdom right again.

2) White Cover

For TBR prompt we needed a book with a white or mostly white cover so I chose The Diabolic, I’d been wanting to read the series and it fit the prompt.

The Diabolic

 

Nemesis is a Diabolic, a humanoid teenager created to protect a galactic senator’s daughter, Sidonia. The two have grown up side by side, but are in no way sisters. Nemesis is expected to give her life for Sidonia, and she would do so gladly. She would also take as many lives as necessary to keep Sidonia safe.

When the power-mad Emperor learns Sidonia’s father is participating in a rebellion, he summons Sidonia to the Galactic court. She is to serve as a hostage. Now, there is only one way for Nemesis to protect Sidonia. She must become her. Nemesis travels to the court disguised as Sidonia—a killing machine masquerading in a world of corrupt politicians and two-faced senators’ children. It’s a nest of vipers with threats on every side, but Nemesis must keep her true abilities a secret or risk everything.

As the Empire begins to fracture and rebellion looms closer, Nemesis learns there is something more to her than just deadly force. She finds a humanity truer than what she encounters from most humans. Amidst all the danger, action, and intrigue, her humanity just might be the thing that saves her life—and the empire.

3) Two Book, One Weekend.

This TBR prompt focuses on reading two books over the Halloween weekend. For this I think I’m going to try to attack my Netgalley pile of unread books because honestly it has gotten pretty scary.
