i am reading a new and very interesting series by Libba Bray. This is the first series she has written and i am quite enjoying it. The first book in the series is called A Great and Terrible Beauty and it was recommended to me by an awesome patron (who shall remain nameless!)
The series features Gemma Doyle, a sixteen year old English girl, who had been raised for most of her life in India, who soon discovers that she has an amazing ability, the ability to See. She begins having visions, sees the deaths of someone close to her, and from there her life spirals out of control. Gemma is now sent to a "finishing school" in England where she explores her new ability and the power that she is able to call upon to take her into The Realms, a magic plane of existence, where creatures of light and dark coexist, although not always peaceably...
Book two is called Rebel Angels (and it was great too) and i am now reading Book three which is called The Sweet Far Thing.
Hope this review helps you find a new favorite to add to you book list!
C'ya at the Library!
