I haven’t read many books this year but this is my favorite read so far in 2018 in no particular order.
Strange the Dreamer
I read this book in the beginning of 2018. I’m not a fans of purple prose book but this book hooked me from the start. Laini Taylor’s writing is so magical and the story is out of this world.

The Burning Maze
This is the third book of The Trials of Apollo and so far this is my favorite book in the series. This is also a surprising read for me because RICK DID SOMETHING THAT I CAN’T FORGIVE!!

The Explorer
Aaah this book is also a surprising read, because I expected nothing of this book and it turned out to be one of my favorite read this year.
I love the adventure and the writing. Will definitely read other books by Katherine Rundell again soon!!
Children of Blood and Bone
I hope you don’t mind if I mention this book over and over again because I’m kinda obsessed with this book. The magic, the worldbuilding, the characters, seriously the entire book is masterpiece.

Nevermoor
This is one book that I will treasure for my entire life. If you’re looking for a great magical world with awesome worldbuilding and characters, you should definitely pick this up!

I officially added Nevermoor to my TBR, thanks to you. I will get to Strange the Dreamer soon. I know Laini Taylor can write, so I’m really interesting in checking out this novel.
Let’s do the music recommendation thing whenever we feel inspired to. My recommendation: River by Ibeyi. This has been my ringtone for the last few months.

Forgot to mention that they speak Yoruba at the end of this song which is the same language spoken in Children of Blood and Bone.
