I read Wolfsong by TJ Klune 🌈

Wolfsong by T.J. Klune My rating: 4 of 5 stars I just finished reading Wolfsong by TJ Klune! 🌈 This book was straightforward and easy to read. There was a strong YA vibe and the gay werewolf thing was fun, but I feel like the book could be at least 100 pages short. I read someone say they would have gone mad about this book if they read it when they were 16 years old. I feel like I would be the same and that's the reason why I liked the book overall.

I just finished reading The Son of The Prophets by Bryan Wilson and it was action-packed!

The Son of the Prophets by Bryan Wilson My rating: 4 of 5 stars I finally finished reading The Son of The Prophets! Action-packed is the best definition for this book! The book starts with action, is filled with action, and finishes with action. There's no breathing room, it took me a long time to read it, but only because my personal life was absolute chaos, the book is super fast-paced and can probably be read quickly if you have the time to invest in the story. I had it since it was still unpublished as an ARC, but was only able to finish by now, as the book is already published. There was a huge evolution plot-wise when compared to the first book in the series, The Forsaken Planet. We have way more POVs, and the stakes are higher for every character in the book. A lot of things that were missing in the first book have come to make up for it in this one. We have a more diverse representation of characters and more POVs, which makes the plot way more complex, and those are g

The Forsaken Planet by Bryan Wilson My rating: 4 of 5 stars I had a lot of fun reading The Forsaken Planet! Last night I finished this book, and I realized how much I was invested. I ate up the final 30% of the book. In a universe where different planets are inhabited by humans capable of controlling the power of the stars called Solara, Earth was the only human planet where these powers have been forgotten. An ancient prophecy claims that the one who wields the power of the stars on Earth is the Son of the Prophets and will lead humanity to Salvation. The MC Colton survives an attack of alien forces on Earth and is suspected to have wielded Solara in the night when the attack took place. The journey leads us to Vintara, a distant planet with a purplish tone to its atmosphere where most of the action will take place. The book is a very detailed sci-fi saga that brings classic and fantasy elements to the game, resulting in an immersive experience for the reader. The biggest quality

I read The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang and I was intrigued!

The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang My rating: 5 of 5 stars I was not going to give 5 stars to this book, because I had a lot of issues going through the first 60% of it. There are some poorly executed transitions between timelines in the first few chapters. In the end, the story seemed to open a new arc that would never close... Still, regardless of its flaws, this is an absolute masterpiece. Very clumsy, but still a masterpiece. The action is like Avatar: The Last Airbender on steroids. If you liked the concept of elemental bending, you'd see it go to its full extent in this book. The characters were so real and heavy, and the story was so dark. Still, the author managed to wrap up the story in a way that warms your heart. It's impossible to read the book without feeling pissed off at Takeru for the most significant part of the fucking book. There was no way not to empathize with Misaki after having to put up with Takeru. I loved the story. It made me incredibly fond of all
