    Little Fires Everywhere

    That is book little fires everywhere by Celestia they honestly think either of her two dolls this or everything. I never told you would be perfect summer reads when they’re both only about 300 pages. 

    *Ads*

    They’re incredibly fast and those have a  central premise of this sort of family drama in suburban America with some sort of thriller-esque drama like fueling behind. what’s going on there’s this deep-seated mystery and unease that she makes you feel while also just going through people’s everyday life little fires everywhere is an exceptional novel.

    that is being turned into an upcoming television show which I’m sure will be very popular starting Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington is a story set in the 90s in a town called Shaker Heights in Ohio this town is artsy and liberal but it still has a very strict undefined and defined rulebook.

    This town is structured and how people kind of move throughout the town is very um. let’s just say organized and one of our main characters  Elena Richardson really personifies the sort of feeling within this town she has a beautiful home a beautiful family both her and her husband have important jobs within the community.

    she lives a very picturesque white-picket-fence life however her life center turned upside down when an artist moves in Mia Warren and Elena rents out her rental property to Mia and her daughter then Mia and her daughter kind of begin to integrate with their family and thing kind of begin to spiral a bit out of control.

    this story opens with Elena  Richardson’s family home 100% on fire and burning to the ground and then we flashback to a year earlier where me and  her daughter move in they’re kind of trying to piece together what happened within that year to cause such a  dramatic aftermath this book is great it’s full of really complex characters no one is black and white good and evil everyone’s full of gray morality in that people are just trying to live their life learning possibly from making bad decisions Bethel makes them so in explicitly human people making choices learning from those choices good or bad and you kind of love everyone.

    but you also hope for people to just be better in the future anyway this book I feel like is so good I feel like it’s les  Engh does such an incredible job writing kind of suburban dramas she really kind of peeks behind the curtain and you just feel like you’re really in the family.

    I  also feel like she created a great 90  setting that really transports you to suburban America in the 90s as someone who kind of experienced that also in the early 2000s I can attest to that feeling quite accurate I also looked at Ohio in the nineties in suburbia so you know there’s that.

    A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer

    A Curse So Dark and Lonely

    by Brigid Kemmerer

    Buy Now

    Next book I’m gonna recommend falls into the category of angsty why hey there’s something about summertime that makes me just want to read easy-breezy really fun really entertaining books.

    and for me that sometimes means kind of an angsty white paranormal fantasy that would just like put a smile on my face and be super entertaining something that perfectly falls into that category is a curse so dark and lonely my budget Kemmer this is actually a beauty in the Beast retelling. 

    which at first hearing that I thought good not coming for me that’s too cliche honestly felt like this book did some really interesting things to those tropes and ultimately the Aqua crafts in  a super entertaining a full of twists and turns story our main character Harper who lives in our world and she has cerebral palsy. 

    Harper and her brother live a rough life her father has skipped town after owing a lot of money to some bad people and their mother is very very sick so Harper and her brother worked tirelessly day in day out to raise enough money  survive.

    and also make sure their mother is comfortable as her illness continues to progress at the beginning of this story due to some interesting circumstances harbour is transported to a parallel fantastical world.

    where she meets Prince Wren who is as you guessed it the Beast in this story he’s cursed his kingdom cursed she feels pity for his plight they have a dramatic course of plot intertwines and so we have this story of really entertaining twists and turns some really cute romance but I  honestly really loved Harper.

    as a main character she was spunky and really really fun I also feel like the author is very aware of the trope she’s writing about scheana she makes knots in them she’s she kind of almost makes us part of the joke like she’s like yeah I’m aware that this is a little ridiculous. 

    so I’m gonna make a joke out of it and it kind of breaks the tension I  constantly had a smile on my face throughout this story in a good way it’s funny it’s entertaining I’ve really really enjoyed every second of it I flew through it it’s a huge page-turner and I  can’t wait for the sequel to come out I  think this fall.

    A Darker Shade of Magic

    by V.E. Schwab

    I have a fantasy series  that it’s just one of my all-time faves  and I honestly think it’s a perfect  series to marathon throughout these  summer months it’s very entertaining a  great introduction into adult fantasy  and that book is darker shades of magic  trilogy by ve Schwab.

    This is an adult  fantasy story where we follow a  multitude of different POVs but it’s a  magical good time that is just  incredible and one of my favorite things  I have ever read but specifically we  follow one of our main characters Cal. 

    who is a traveler basically there are  four different parallel London’s there’s  grey London which is our world which has  no magic there’s red London which is  thriving and full of magic and this is  Kells hometown there’s white London  which kind of like devours its own magic. 

    it’s like spiraling into chaos and like  power rules there and then there’s black  London which has been completely sealed  off no one can go to any more and it’s  like a very evil dark place that has  been defeated because of tell strange  ability to pass through all of these  different London’s he is a messenger and kind of like the main and only diplomat  for all of these worlds.

    he basically  passes messages on from various ruling  bodies from each one of these London’s  keeping the peacemaking sure everything  is  running smoothly something however  occurs naturally that kind of sets.

    this  plot in motion and one of those things  is that he runs into a character called  Delilah bard who is a girl pickpocket in  gray London and this changes his life  forever this is a magical story full of  hijinks and good time kal and Delilah  bard will steal your heart there’s also  an amazing sibling moment.

    there’s  complicated great characters it is a  magical story that will just propel you  with a smile on your face the whole time  the second book almost has it’s like  goblin fire magical competition element  to it I loved this trilogy so much it’s  so good and I think just get a perfect  introduction to adult high fantasy book and  something that will be super easy to  read throughout the summer months it’s  amazing  you got to read it.

    The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

    B07Ddgx4Ky.01. Sclzzzzzzz Sx500

    The Priory of the Orange Tree

    by Samantha Shannon

    Buy Now

    The next book I’m  gonna talk about is the Priory of the  orange tree by Samantha Shannon now  before you’re intimidated by this book  sighs because it is very long I think a  really strong selling point of this book  is that it’s actually a standalone  fantasy novel.

    so while it’s very long  it’s basically like you’re reading a  whole fantasy series in one go because  it’s like think of it like three three  hundred book pages it’s 900 pages  actually I think it’s like 800 pages  it’s not so bad guys give it a go this  is a really great epic fantasy story. 

    that’s ending around dragons this is a  story where we follow a multitude of  different perspectives residing in  different kingdoms but specifically  mostly like the west and the east a  thousand years ago there was basically. 

    this huge battle good against evil and  was essentially the origin to many  religions that exist within this world  and from this event different nations  that exist in this fantasy world have  interpreted the events in different ways  resulting in very different religions. 

    which have basically made these  geographical lands over time distrust  and hate each other so it’s kind of like  East versus West but they have a lot of  similarities and they have ties that go  back thousands of years at the beginning  of the story that evil that was defeated. 

    all those years ago is beginning to rise  again and an unlikely cast of characters  kind of have to work together or not to  figure out how to save the world this  does involve dragons and again has just  a slew of very interesting POV as we  follow an alchemist we follow a dragon  rider in training.

    we follow a spy  a popper like anyone you can think of is  present in this story which makes it’s  so fascinating cuz you’re seeing things  unfurl from so many different levels  within this world.

    I also think a huge  strength that this novel is that lore  and also the geological differences  between these two places you really feel  a huge expansiveness to this story  really seeing a lot of history and  political tension kind of unfurled  before our eyes.

    I thought this is a  really strong novel that I think is a  really good again another introductory  to epic high fantasy it is a standalone  which is incredibly rare but it really  has all of the trappings of a  fantastical fantasy book so this is  something I would also recommend picking  up this summer.

    read these book.

    Before everyone to my last two books I have to just mention that if you have not yet read the way of kings or the name of the wind ignore all these recommendations and just read these books instead.

    I promise  they’re amazing they’re not intimidating  to read they might be long but they’re  incredible and you’ll fly through them  and it’ll change your life forever  so read these if you haven’t all right  continue next book recommendation I have  is a winter’s promise by crystal Davos. 

    this is the part of the mirror visitor  quartet I want to say and this has just  been an utter surprise for me and  something that I just can’t stop talking  about this series has swept me off my  feet has a smile on my face the whole  time it’s one of the most unique y-a  stories.

    I’ve come across in years and I  just feel like everyone needs to read it  in this story would follow our main  character of Fillion and in her world  there is a Germanic catastrophe that  kind of led to the end of the world.

    and  from these ashes a new structure of  nations arose meaning like literally  arose because now people live on spires  in the sky and each spire has their own  ruling like family spirit which is very  much inspired by a variety of different  religious lore from like our world think  like Artemis etc.

    etc our main character  Ophelia has a very unique set of powers  she can basically do two things she can  touch objects and see their entire past  in history of the object itself and also  everyone who touched the object and two  she can travel through mirrors Oh fili  just wants a little very ordinary and  unremarkable life.

    however her family is  a little fed  because she refuses to marry in  consequence of this they basically make  a deal to marry her off to a very  faraway spire to a man they never met  before.

    and in the beginning of this book  she’s basically sent away to this new  place this new spire starkly contrasts  her home one this new spire is  absolutely ruthless and the magic that  exists here senator an illusion so you  can imagine how that impacts a day to  day life within this fire also the  family spirit is very detached.

    but  demanding which creates another  complicated layer to the political  system again this is just truly one of  the most unique stories I have come  across in a long time from every angle  the romance is unlike anything ever  encountered.

    and why if you can call it  romance the politics and the world are  so unique and captivating and they’re  just inspired by so many different  elements of like our world news fire she  travelled to kind of gives you like  Versailles politics mixed with like  Russian czar politics.

    it’s wild and  again incredible and the writing style  is absolutely beautiful lyrical  captivating I loved every second of this  first and second novel I can’t wait for  the third one to come out if you haven’t  picked this up you got to read it it’s  mesmerizing the world building it’s  intricate it is just it’ll blow you  it’ll blow you away. read these book.
