Book review: A Far Away Magic

A FAR AWAY MAGIC
BY: AMY WILSON

This book twists and turns, taking my breath away.

From the first page I read I was pulled into a world full of magic, grief and monsters. Once again Amy Wilson has amazed me, after reading A Girl Called Owl and now A Far Away Magic I can't wait to see what other magical and mystical books she publishes. Once again Helen Crawford-White did a gorgeous job of illustrating the cover and the inside of the book.

While reading this I found myself being drawn further and further into this new magical world, and I was so sad when I got to the last page. I felt like I had lost a friend, this book has so much in it that I want there to be more, to have the adventure  carry on with Angel and Bavar. The story has so much meaning to it, even the smallest details mean something.

I have read a lot of fantasy books but reading this book I found myself intrigued with the magic that bloomed and flowed from the world. The books magic has depth to it, shadows about it, that made me want to read more and more. Amy's characters, Angel and Bavar meet at school. Bavar is tying to hide from the world and the magic in his life whist Angel is tying to find the magic and shadows that killed her parents. Both characters have a past they would love to forget but this is what brings them together to stop the Raksasa and save their world.

Another amazing book from Amy Wilson...

Friends and being myself

Hello my peeps, that's a wired way to start this but that me, I might start all my blog posts like that. How has your day been? Mine has been amazing, spent all morning and afternoon with my good friends. Its amazing how some people can make you smile and laugh all day, and just enjoy their company. I have always found it hard to keep friends but I have a couple of people in my life that I love with all my heart, they make me smile, laugh and just relax, letting me be myself.  Its hard when you are very quiet in a world of very loud people, and yes sometimes I can be crazy and loud like those people but I feel like that I'm not myself, that I'm a person trying to be like by people. I think that this world we grow up in now is all about the likes we get on social media, how may followers we have and just how may people like us. Don't get me wrong I have do this as well, but I have seen my mistakes and errors in this way and found a new path on my journey that I...

I have just had this amazing thing happen to me........ Oh, wait lets take a breath and clam down. Hi my peeps, ok there we go, the opening sentence is now out of the way and done with, now onto this amazing thing. Have you heard of the Laws of Attraction?   I just found out about it and I think it has changed my world perhaps forever. Ok I know what you are thinking, really?  It sounds a bit out there, but I'm convinced by the truth in it! Lets just talk about the the Laws of Attraction first. The  Law of Attraction  is where if you think you're going to have a bad day the chances are you will, because you're thinking it and what you think is what you get. You are attracting bad things to you. If you think you're going to have an great day then you're going to have a great day! Our minds are so powerful that it attract what you think, so if you think your going to be late for a meeting, then you will probably end up being late, do you get it? ...

Book review: The Dream Snatcher

THE DREAM SNATCHER BY: ABI ELPHINSTONE Abi elphinstone's Instagram  The marks, the beating thyme of the drums, the shaking of the rattles, and the dark whispers from the shadowless figure. The Dream Snatcher is calling! This is a tale of twists and turns, a story of the brave and the dangerous, this is the tale of Moll Pecksniff and her wildcat Gryff. I read this book in two and half days, it could be the fact it was a only 278 pages long or because I just couldn't put it down. This was a whirlwind of an adventure and all I could do was dive in. I didn't really know what to think of it when I first started but as the story progressed I found myself beginning to fall in love with the characters and the danger they faced. The Dream Snatcher is the first book in a three book series, each one facing different dangers and darkness. I have only just finished reading the first book but I'm itching to get the second, The Shadow Keeper, as soon as I get time to pop ...
