The second and last book in the Enchantress Awakens series has my whole heart. This was the perfect read for the beginning of fall and I loved it even more than anticipated. This world and the characters are so well done and I'm so glad we got to read more POVs in book two. Roman's POV was my favourite and his character arc was so good! Of course I also enjoyed spending more time with Elora and Sorin. Their story was so sweet and beautiful it was a blast following them. Kristen has a way with words that immerses you completely in the world of Teravie, it's like watching a cozy movie. The pacing of TASS was fantastic as well and I just wanted to keep reading. When I had 150 pages left I wasn't sure how the story would end but I was surprised how much still happened and I loved every minute of it. Another favourite were the wolves - but I mean, who wouldn't be happy about some wolf companions? This book is definitely a favourite of mine and I couldn't recommend it enough. The writing, world, characters and overall story come together so nicely and it is thought through very well. It feels bittersweet leaving this world but I'm very sure that I will come back soon.
Thank you for the author for the eARC in exchange for my honest opinion.
The End Crowns All is a young adult novel about the trojan war with a little twist to it.
I love Greek mythology and especially all stories and characters around the trojan war. I only heard great things about Fitzgerald's writing so I was very eager to start this book.
I was invested from the first page and I simply couldn't stop reading. All the well known characters of the trojan war were there, like Cassandra, Apollo, Helen, Paris and Hector just to name a few but the course of the story was what kept me reading. This is not a retelling, the author took the ancient greek and well known story and just created something new, unique and absolutely beautiful.
I love her writing, I love the choices she made with the story and characters and it was so refreshing to see a new version of the story. I also loved that even the characters in the book gave a hint on the changes which were made.
If you love Greek mythology please pick this one up! I definitely want to read Girl, Goddess, Queen very soon and I'm sure I will also give the author's thriller a go. I had an absolute blast with this book and it hit all the marks for me.
