This Week's FF:
What books are you looking forward to reading in 2016
December was my magic month. I got in the mood for Fae, sorcery, and the like and read quite a few authors that I will definitely be keeping an eye out for this coming year. One being Sarah Maas. Not sure how she flew under my radar for so long but I'm loving ALL of her series reads right now.
A specific book I absolutely cannot wait for is Earth's End (Air Awakens #3) by Elise Kova. I stumbled across the first book in this series thinking it would be a quick bridging read while I found another series to lose myself in. It turned out to be one of my favorite reads of the year. In a few days I cruised through books 1 and 2 only to have that awful realization that book 3 wouldn't be out until early 2016!
Here's the blurb for the first book:
A library apprentice, a sorcerer prince, and an unbreakable magic bond...
The Solaris Empire is one conquest away from uniting the continent, and the rare elemental magic sleeping in seventeen-year-old library apprentice Vhalla Yarl could shift the tides of war.
Vhalla has always been taught to fear the Tower of Sorcerers, a mysterious magic society, and has been happy in her quiet world of books. But after she unknowingly saves the life of one of the most powerful sorcerers of them all--the Crown Prince Aldrik--she finds herself enticed into his world. Now she must decide her future: Embrace her sorcery and leave the life she's known, or eradicate her magic and remain as she's always been. And with powerful forces lurking in the shadows, Vhalla's indecision could cost her more than she ever imagined.
