Last year I had the pleasure of receiving a copy of SEVENTH BORN by @authormonicasanz to read for review and found myself thoroughly enjoying it. It was dark, magical, and full of mystery and I loved it. This year the folks at @entangledteen were nice enough to send me a copy of the sequel MIRROR BOUND, which I had not been expecting so it was such a wonderful surprise. I can't wait to dive back into the Witchling Academy series!

Conspirator. Failure. Murderer.
Seraphina Dovetail is used to being called all these things. As the seventh-born daughter to a witch, and the cause of her mother losing both her powers and her life, Sera has always felt isolated. Until Nikolai Barrington.
The young professor not only took an interest in Sera—he took her into his home, hired her for his moonlighting detective agency, and gave her the one thing she’d always dreamed of: a chance. Under Barrington’s tutelage, Sera can finally take the School of Continuing Magic entrance exam to become an inspector and find her family. Now if only she could stop her growing attraction to her maddening boss—which is about as easy as this fiery elementalist quitting setting things on fire.
But when ghosts start dragging Sera into possessions so deep she can barely escape, and then the souls of lost witches and wizards appear trapped in mirrors, these two opposites will have to work together to uncover a much deeper secret that could destroy the Witchling world…

6 more days until THERE WILL COME A DARKNESS by @katyrosepool publishes!!! Thank you @fiercereads for this amazing Anton prize pack (confession: he is my favorite character). If you haven't added this dark fantasy to your TBR yet, what rock have you been living under? A must read for fans of prophecies, magic, a girl who kills with a touch, a gambler boy fleeing from his past, an exiled prince, a warrior with lots of self-doubt, and a girl who is running out of time. It is a gorgeous book filled with characters to fall in love with, mysteries to grip you, some delicious romance, and a world that is built spectacularly. One of my favorite reads of the year! And if you want to read my full review, I am going to post the link in my bio.

Full synopsis of TWCAD below *
*
*
The Age of Darkness approaches.
Five lives stand in its way.
Who will stop it... or unleash it?
For generations, the Seven Prophets guided humanity. Using their visions of the future, they ended wars and united nations―until the day, one hundred years ago, when the Prophets disappeared.
All they left behind was one final, secret prophecy, foretelling an Age of Darkness and the birth of a new Prophet who could be the world’s salvation . . . or the cause of its destruction. As chaos takes hold, five souls are set on a collision course:
A prince exiled from his kingdom.
A ruthless killer known as the Pale Hand.
A once-faithful leader torn between his duty and his heart.
A reckless gambler with the power to find anything or anyone.
And a dying girl on the verge of giving up.
One of them―or all of them―could break the world. Will they be savior or destroyer? Perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, Children of Blood and Bone, and An Ember in the Ashes.
