There is Carter ( The Vanisher) Locke… Leila ( The Escape Artist) Vernon… Theo ( The Levitator) Stein-Meyer… and Ridley ( The Transformationist) Larsen… and who could forget Olly and Izzy, the ( Hilarious) Golden twins. I have to assume that you remember the details of our favorite young magicians’ club-the titular Magic Misfits. And if you examine every page, you might even find clues that answer questions you have not yet asked. I will need you to think twice about whom to trust and whom to blame. You see, the escapades in this book are a tad more treacherous than in the previous, and I want you to take as much care as the Misfits must themselves. ![]() But once you begin reading this-the third tale of the Magic Misfits-you shall understand why I was hiding. This ink is my voice, and these letters are messages from my mind.Īnd there you are! How happy it makes me to have you along for yet another journey.Īpologies for the secrecy. ![]() It’s me… right in the pages of this book! ![]()

I could understand her reluctance to put her whole heart on the line with what she lived through with her evil father. She did have a few moments in the start of the book where I was kinda rolling my eyes, but she really grew into her own. Perfect! I loved the way he was with Janie and how he tried so hard to make Cara and Janie happy. There was nothing about him I would change. He was domineering, arrogant with a sweetness under that hard soldier exterior. So damn sexy, protective, strong, and pure 100% kick ass alpha male. ![]() “Cara,” he leaned forward in his chair, “before this night has ended you will have no doubt you’ve been mated.”-Talen And Cara”- his voice dropped to a rumble-“you’re mine.” -Talen I don't know what magic this book has over me but me and this book just click!

However, after hearing from many readers-one of them being my friend, Elliot Brooks-who disliked Uprooted that Spinning Silver worked wonderfully for them, my curiosity was piqued. I consider Uprooted one of the worst fantasy novels I’ve read, and I had no motivation in trying out more of Novik’s works for five years. Honestly speaking, I never intended to read Spinning Silver. It’s been exactly five years since I’ve read Uprooted by Naomi Novik. If Uprooted is my Hell, then Spinning Silver is my Heaven.įive years.

New York Times bestselling author Adalyn Grace brings to life a highly romantic, Gothic-infused world of wealth, desire, and betrayal.
