Today you can find me over at Romance Around the Corner talking about my favorite fantasy heroines. I was thrilled to participate in Heroine Week, Brie's week-long celebration of female characters from all genres and walks of life. There have been some pretty spectacular and thoughtful posts along the way and I've found several new authors and books to search out. Drop in and see what you think, will you?
It really is a pretty cover. And dragons. I love them so. It's been far too long since I've read a book in which dragons played any kind of primary character role. They do here, and they are probably my favorite aspect of this book. But more on that later. It's probably worth noting that I, like the rest of the world, was aware of Fourth Wing and the collective losing of BookTok's mind over it. I mean, it was kind of thrilling to hear that you couldn't find a copy anywhere—in the sense that I love it when books are being consumed and loved. And when that happens in such a way that it takes publishing by surprise (for lack of a better way to phrase it) so much so that they have to scramble to print more. So I did the sensible thing and bought the ebook. And then I proceeded to do the not-so-sensible-but-extremely-Angie thing and not read it. There was a cross-country move tucked in there somewhere between the buying and the reading, but more on that at a later date...
I'm so happy you could join us! It was a pleasure and an honor. If I do it again next year, I hope you write another guest post.
ReplyDeleteSo am I, Brie. It was a killer week. I'm totally on board for next year if you'll have me.
