EFFULGENT | BRILLIANTLY RADIANT
A BOOK WITH A BEAUTIFUL COVER

Look at this beauty! I’ll have the review up this next monday, just know that the inside is even better

METANOIA | THE JOURNEY OF CHANGING ONE’S MIND, HEART, SELF, OR WAY OF LIFE
A CHARACTER WHO GOES THROUGH A MAJOR TRANSFORMATION

REVIEW

Both of the main characters grow a lot along the novel but I feel lite Mateo changed the most, he was so afraid of everything on the beginning and then Rufus helped him to see all the beauty of taking risks.

SOCKDOLAGER | DECISIVE RETORT; MIC DROP
A CHARACTER WHO ALWAYS HAS A GOOD COMEBACK

REVIEW

Lila Bard from A Darker Shade of Magic always know what to say and I love her for it

SESQUIPEDALIAN | CONTAINING MANY SYLLABLES; LONG WINDED
THE LONGEST BOOK YOU’VE READ

I actually did a Top Ten Tuesday about longest books not long ago, the longest one was:

The Count of Monte Cristo with 1276 pages

EPHEMERAL | LASTING FOR A VERY SHORT TIME
THE SHORTEST BOOK YOU’VE READ

This is a short story from the Raven Cycle Series by Maggie Stiefvater and it was only 2 pages full of holiday fluff

SERENITY | THE STATE OF BEING CALM, PEACEFUL, AND UNTROUBLED
A BOOK THAT MAKES YOU FEEL CALM AND HAPPY

OBLIVION | THE STATE OF BEING UNAWARE OF WHAT’S HAPPENING AROUND YOU
A NOVEL WITH A COMPLEX PLOT

RANTIPOLE | TO BE WILD AND RECKLESS
A RECKLESS CHARACTER

I love the three disasters but for this prompt I’m choosing Magnus Burnsides, that big beefy fighter in the middle, his motto is literally Magnus rushes in

NEFARIOUS | WICKED, VILLAINOUS, DESPICABLE
YOUR FAVOURITE VILLAIN

Listen, I know we all love Patroclus and hate Hector because he killed him and stuff but the guy didn’t do anything wrong? He was the perfect ancient hero and was protecting his city. So, even though he is “the bad guy” I still really like him.

INEFFABLE | TOO GREAT TO BE EXPRESSED IN WORDS
YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK OR BOOK SERIES

JUST ONE??? Why do you hurt me so?

Okay, excluding the ones I’ve already mentioned:

TROUVAILLE | SOMETHING LOVELY DISCOVERED BY CHANCE
A BOOK YOU DIDN’T EXPECT TO LOVE

The only reason I read it was because my friends peer-pressured me to, and I absolutely loved it. I read the synopsis and it didn’t sound like something I’d pick up by myself but the writing was nice and the mystery kept me reading.

NOSTALGIA | A WISTFUL DESIRE TO RETURN IN THOUGHT TO A FORMER TIME IN ONE’S LIFE
A BOOK OR CHARACTER THAT MAKES YOU FEEL NOSTALGIC

It was either this or Harry Potter but we are going full teenage nostalgia with….

These books are responsible for my love for YA, even if now I can see how harmful they could be.
