About the magic...I...It is worthy of the praise. About the magic...I'm not really sure what to tell you. It's not magic in the wands and witches sense of the word. Both Celia and Marco have these supernatural abilities. Because of their "magic" both of their overseers bind them to a challenge that pits them against each other. But it's never used to actively hurt each other. Really, throughout the book the magic is always used to build things. But there are always...consequences... I don't know if that helps at all.TheScribblingSpritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594958277392976297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873982736592050445.post-5807253401241063902015-06-19T14:27:18.465-05:002015-06-19T14:27:18.465-05:00I haven't read either book, but I'm defini...I haven't read either book, but I'm definitely checking them out!TheScribblingSpritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594958277392976297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873982736592050445.post-4052478323855964252015-06-19T14:26:26.462-05:002015-06-19T14:26:26.462-05:00Trust me when I tell you you should bump it up to ...Trust me when I tell you you should bump it up to the top of that enormous to-read list ;)<br /><br />I'm going to have to check out H.L.

I can't get enough of lyrical writing and often books become favorites of mine due to the author's knack of weaving words together beautifully. The only thing I'm a little hesitant about in this book is how magic is dealt with since I'm wary of some books involving magic. What was it like?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873982736592050445.post-82480606914458597632015-06-19T09:39:20.070-05:002015-06-19T09:39:20.070-05:00Sounds awesome!

I'm glad you enjoyed it so much! <br /><br />The Eighth Day by Diane K. Salerni is probably the most recent book I've read that swept me off my feet. I also think that the last book in the Beyonders series by Brandon Mull is five star worthy (although I still haven't recovered from the ending). :P<br />-Bailey Bailey Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04127279703518414055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873982736592050445.post-86347455766492270712015-06-19T08:38:46.909-05:002015-06-19T08:38:46.909-05:00This sounds amazing!

I'm scrambling over to Goodreads now to add it to my enormous to-read list. :)<br /><br />As for books that swept me off my feet: Allegiant (Veronica Roth) completely blew me away. I couldn't even form my thoughts into a coherent review. Another recent one was Lands of Ash -- I've enjoyed all of H.L. Burke's other books (that I've read, which is most of them), but this was beyond anything she's published before (except maybe Beggar Magic...).serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375307816652807841noreply@blogger.com
