FANTASY SET IN HISTORICAL PARIS? YES PLEASE. ~ The Gilded Wolves by Roshani Chokshi
I was in total awe of the cover the first time I stumbled upon The Gilded Wolves. As you all know, I'm usually not that big on historical fiction but.. First the cover, then the blurb and.. I was sold?
OWN-VOICE, ASIAN-INSPIRED FANTASY WITH SHAPESHIFTERS ~ The Girl King by Mimi Yu
Political intrigue, a character destined to become the first female ruler and then there's shapeshifters? Nobody should even expect me not to read this, want to read this, want to cuddle this and devour it and.. and.. well.. everything.
READING SOMETHING I SHOULD’VE READ YEARS AGO – Paranormalcy trilogy by Kiersten White
I took a while to read this trilogy, but I'm honestly.. happy to say I've both started and finished all three books in a little over a month's time!

Or do I wish I hadn't read them at all?

ASIAN-INSPIRED, OWN-VOICE YA FANTASY! ~ Empress of All Seasons by Emiko Jean
