Intro In my opinion, there is no middle-grade series that is more underrated than Shelby Bach’s Ever Afters series. With the adventure and spirit of Percy Jackson and the magic and fairytale roots of the School for Good and Evil, it’s easily one of the best middle-grade series that I’ve ever read, but I’ve never…

Intro So, for those of you who might not know, this is a video game book, set in the universe of the World of Warcraft MMORPG. (We’re not serious readers here, if you haven’t noticed.) It’s the origin story of one of the game’s most iconic villains, the infamous Lich King, lord of the undead…

Packed with action, magic, and a strong heroine, it’s pretty much a must-read for lovers of YA fantasy. So let’s dive into it, shall we? Children of Blood…

If you’re a regular reader of book blogs or viewer of bookstagram or booktok posts, this probably isn’t the first time you’ve heard of an Ember in the Ashes. It’s easily one of the most popular YA fantasy series of the 2010s. Despite this, I actually only started to read it a couple of years…

I’m going to go right out and say it: The Lunar Chronicles is probably one of my favorite series of all time, even years after reading it for the first time. It’s packed with action, humor, drama, and romance, and the whole cast of characters—and it gets to be a pretty big cast, after a…
