Book Review

An Education in Malice is a darkly seductive sapphic dark academia book with a tad bit of paranormal. The vibes in this book are immaculate – the atmosphere is everything.

During the Great War, a combat nurse searches for her brother, believed dead in the trenches despite eerie signs that suggest otherwise, in this hauntingly beautiful historical novel with a speculative twist from the New York Times bestselling author of The Bear and the Nightingale

The dazzling finale to the groundbreaking, New York Times bestselling Gilded Ones series. One girl holds the power to defeat the gods—but can she become one?

I have loved everything Ali has written, and this is no exception. I am a sucker for vampire/werewolves and pretty much all the tropes in this book.

A teenage sorcerer’s apprentice must solve her boss’s murder in order to prove her innocence in this twisty, magic-infused murder mystery perfect for fans of Knives Out and The Inheritance Games .

Klune has been one of my favorite queer authors since he started publishing back with Bear, Otter and the Kid, and I’ve always loved his writing style.

The comp titles for this book are “Ten Thousand Doors of January” and “The Starless Sea” and those comps definitely ring true for this book. It was nothing like I expected — but in a good way.
