Magical Readathon: Orilium - Choose Your Own Adventure: Year In Aeldia 2025, The Boardgame - August Update

     

Happy Saturday everyone! Today I'm sharing my thoughts on the book I read in August for Choose Your Own Adventure: Year In Adelia, The Boardgame, an additional challenge to G. @ Book Roast's Magical Readathon.  You can see my full tbr here.  Without further ado, check out my mini review below:

❋ ❋ ❋ ❋

I'm not familiar with The Twa Sisters but now I'm going to have to check out other retellings of it after reading Sistersong by Lucy Holland. I'll also have to try more from the author in the future. I really liked her lyrical style of historical fantasy which is a subgenre I can't resist.  If you like Natalie Haynes, Sophie Keetch, or Madeline Miller, I have a feeling you'll like Lucy Holland too.

My review is also on Goodreads and The StoryGraph.

Next Month: 

September - September’s book can be part of your Sprint Equinox TBR if you’re participating and fit both prompts. 8D → 9C Travel to Kerador (it has been such a pleasant journey so far, but you’re ready to leave the calm behind and get some action! Kerador is always buzzing with activity and shenanigans, so Kerador is where you go! The very moment you cross the continents you're met by SEVEN Implings of a kind you’ve never met before. Is there such a thing as chaotic music type? Because this might be it. They ask you no questions and wait for no refusals, drag you by your sleeves and towards a lute. As you chuckle, you realise you may have just been roped into an Impling band?) - read a book with a purple cover

My choice: Bait and Witch (Witch Way Librarian Mysteries #1) by Angela M. Sanders - I found several books in this series at a flea market and it sounds delightful.

Have you read this book and are you participating in this challenge?  As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
