All Book Recommendations. Books I have read.
‘Lia can hear the future, much in the way she hears the call of Draumr. And in that future, she realizes that the diamond—along with the fate of the drákon—rests in the hands of a human man, one who straddles two worlds.’
Lia Langford and Zane, where to start? Where they come from? Yes, I think that should be a good start.
Please be aware that they will be spoilers here if you don’t know the characters already, go to the bottom of the post, where I will leave you a link to either a review of the book where they came from or to an outside source so you can buy it, read the book, and then come back here to chat or read about these two.
Spoilers ahead!

Genre: Fantasy, High Fantasy, Science Fantasy
So Fantasy, yes.
I read these books a long time ago so bear with me.
The main thing I always remember about His Dark Materials books is that I found them utterly fascinating and I could not stop reading after finishing the first one, the second and third had to be read and they were far more exciting than the Northern Lights. I’m not going to go into it book by book but probably jump around between the three, I hope you are ready.

Genre: Holy Alien Babies. Fiction. Drama. Supernatural.
Alright so, I tried to stop and give you a briefing as I was reading this one like I did with The Darkest Star, but I started in Ch 19. You’ll just have to believe that before that moment, everything was good and I couldn’t stop reading; afterward, I forced myself to stop and put down the book (The Burning Shadow obviously) to write random (not so random) notes.

Genre: Fantasy, Romance, Science-Fiction
Well this was a good and bad idea for me. Not the contents of the book, that I loved, but actually starting to read it and finishing it. Let me explain better while telling you what I thought.
As we all know, Game of Thrones the TV show has ended, our watch has ended, the night came with its terrors, winter came and went in a puff, and the fire and blood of the last episodes left us with a huge hole, so to fill it up let us go around and see what else is out there about this world that held us captive for almost a decade only to be completely finished in a not so-great finale.
Since we do not have the 6th Book to actually know what happens in A Song of Ice and Fire, then we turn to others to understand a bit more of it or to simply read something new, because there is always time for that. Here are 5 Books related to Game of Thrones.

Genres: Tragedy, Gothic fiction
I read this one a long time ago, as in years ago! So I cannot really say that my memories of it are that specific though I will try to make it justice.

Genre: YA, Comedy
This one was a gift, it came in one of those wonderful boxes that bring bookish goodies, sorry I cannot remember which box but when it first arrived, I said: who’s this chick? What is this book? And decided to leave it for later.
I think it has been a year since that or nearly, and finally I picked up Emma and begun to read. She’s a bit nutty I will admit. Now, read this whole post with a British accent and you are good to go with the book. This is what happened.
Caution, some things might be considered spoiler, you have been warned.

This is not going to be easy, and I do not think it is going to be really short.
Last night I finished Queen of Air and Darkness (QOAAD from now on), if I had read it in December when it came out it would have been the Best Read of 2018, alas, it was not, it is the Best Read of 2019 so far, and unless The Red Scrolls of Magic is something incredibly amazing and even more epic, it will stay the best book, because Cassie Clare did it again, she went a step forward, she makes you want to be inside the book, inside the Shadow World, be part of a family, be part of a world that you only know through words on paper, it was awesome.
Alright, so this one is going to be quick and painless… I hope.
This is not a review.
Another year came to an end, and a new year is about to make us its slave. Wow, that was deep, I know.
This new year will bring many new books, but I already have a small (*cough cough*) list of books that I want to read and I am yet to grab and sit and read without interruptions. I was supposed to start QOAAD before the year was over but that did not happen, my mundane job did not let me do it, still it is my first choice in 2019. And since I am done with The Darkest Star, which was my favourite read of the year, then I am free as a bird to obsesses over other fictional characters that will surely cause me to scream at the book. This is what I have planned.
