I’ve got 19 pages left of Stars Above by Marissa Meyer and I’m not okay with that because then there’s only the graphic novel and the series is over ? And I’m still waiting for someone to call me their Alpha Female too because that couple is goals to me ?? • • What book or series did you not want to end❓ • • ?ABOUT THE BOOK: The Last of the Firedrakes by Farah Oomerbhoy was good, but nothing great. I don’t read that much fantasy, but I’ve read enough to get used to the long lost heir to throne who never knew this about her past gets sucked into a new world and is the chosen one foretold to overthrow the evil ruler and reclaim the throne storyline. And so while it was a nice enough read and has a gorgeous cover, it wasn’t anything unique. Sometimes I even found the main character or romance a bit frustrating. So while I didn’t mind reading it, at times I was a bit bored ? If you haven’t read much fantasy though, then this is as good a place as any to start. • • #blue #dress #bookspine #book #oliviascatastrophe #books #reading #booklove #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #booklover #bookporn #bookphotography #booknerd #booknerdigan #read #reader #bookish #bookaddict #bookblogger #bibliophile #bookworm #ya #yalovin #fiction #youngadult #bookaholic #bookgeek #instabooks

Books are their own magic ✨Or yknow, I’m clearly adept at magic too, seeing as it’s currently sprouting from my fingers. I guess it was a side effect of reading this fantasy novel, because there was certainly some magic included ? • • Although sometimes I wish there could be a little bit of magic in real life too. Like the magic of knowing the right choice when it comes to a life changing decision. Or the magic to bring the remote control to you when your on the sofa and it’s somewhere else. • • But I guess we have to make our own mistakes. And as my mum might say: create daughters that she calls from all the way upstairs to hand her a remote a table away from where she’s already sitting. ? • • I’ve never asked: hardcover, paperback, ebook or audiobook❓And most importantly, WHY❓ • • #shelfie #magic #fantasy #book #oliviascatastrophe #books #reading #booklove #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #booklover #bookporn #bookphotography #booknerd #booknerdigan #read #reader #bookish #bookaddict #bookblogger #bibliophile #bookworm #ya #yalovin #fiction #youngadult #bookaholic #bookgeek #instabooks

But I’m so glad because I had SO much to catch up on with my friend. And SO many of her friends to meet, and SO much of the beautiful city to see and… I think you get the picture ?? • • Oh and this is my sisters prom dress but ssh ? it matched the dress in the cover and had to be used! • • If you could have one item of clothing from a movie, book or series, which would you choose❓ • • I’m totally going for one of the Disney princess dresses ? • • #dress #blue #prom #book #oliviascatastrophe #books #reading #booklove #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #booklover #bookporn #bookphotography #booknerd #booknerdigan #read #reader #bookish #bookaddict #bookblogger #bibliophile #bookworm #ya #yalovin #fiction #youngadult #bookaholic #bookgeek #instabooks

I was lucky enough to receive a copy of The Last of the Firedrakes by @farahoomerbhoyauthor and it’s sequel The Rise of the Dawnstar ? The covers are absolutely STUNNING! . SYNOPSIS: 16-year-old Aurora Darlington is an orphan. Mistreated by her adopted family and bullied at school, she dreams of running away and being free. But when she is kidnapped and dragged through a portal into a magical world, suddenly her old life doesn’t seem so bad. . Avalonia is a dangerous land ruled by powerful mages and a cruel, selfish queen who will do anything to control all seven kingdoms—including killing anyone who stands in her way. . Thrust headlong into this new, magical world, Aurora’s arrival sets plans in motion that threaten to destroy all she holds dear. . With the help of a young fae, a magical pegasus, and a handsome mage, Aurora journeys across Avalonia to learn the truth about her past and unleash the power within herself. Kingdoms collide as a complicated web of political intrigue and ancient magic lead Aurora to unravel a shocking secret that will change her life forever. . Who will be adding these beautiful books to their TBR? ☺️?

And these books are no exception! When I saw them on my girl Steph’s (@the.bookish.photog) account I knew I had to had them. BTW it was her birthday yesterday, go give her a belated Happy Birthday! ?? ✨ The Last of The Firedrakes and the newly released second novel, The Rise of The Dawnstar are part of the Avalonia Chronicles by author @farahoomerbhoyauthor. Synopsis down in comments for each book! ?? ✨ High fantasy is my favorite genre of all time, and I’m also a sucker for a pretty dress on the cover; but back on point…. oh yeah fantasy. ?? Some of the important elements in fiction that always makes a novel great to me are included: Political intrigue, danger, and deep characterization. This magical world has me chomping on the bit! It’s time to sink my teeth into a new epic series and this one fits the bill! . ✨ Today was the first day of school for my Ninja Bebe, and it was hectic as hell!

You should definitely check out ‘The Last of the Firedrakes’ if you’re interested because the synopsis makes me want to read it as soon as possible. ? • I’m currently reading Alice in Wonderland, and quite enjoying it so far.

I’m currently reading two books, ‘The Changeling’s Journey’ by @weereader , and ‘The Last of the Firedrakes’ by @farahoomerbhoyauthor I ask myself why I try to read two books every darn time because I’m not good at it. ?How do you guys do it? But the good thing is that I enjoy both books a lot! I’m just so…slow. • This post features the second book of The Avalonia Chronicles + bookmark and a neat bracelet with two mini versions of the two books, which I will show a better photo of later because it’s kind of hard to see in this photo. • Have a great weekend!

First stop on the @storygramtours tour of Rise Of The Dawnstar by @farahoomerbhoyauthor ✨. Read on for a GIVEAWAY & some cool content from the author! Rise of The Dawnstar is the second installment in the Avalonia Chronicles. The story follows Aurora Firedrake, a young princess fighting to save her kingdom and throne! ⠀ The author has provided some information about basic magic in this world!! Anyone who possesses the gift of magic can achieve this level of power. It’s the most common type of magic used in the seven kingdoms. Basic magic is taught to all Mages in their first two years of magic school. Many find it very hard to go forward to the next level and most don’t have the potential to proceed any further. Therefore, many Mages end their training after their second year at the magical academies of Evolon or Nerenor. Most Demi-Fae or lesser Fae usually possess a basic level of magic. Elementals and other Fae creatures like Dryads, sylphs, brownies, centaurs, etc all have some magic with them suited to their Fae heritage and bloodlines. The witches and warlocks of Rohron are born with an inner power, that can be channeled through spells and incantations. For more content from the author, check @deertales tmrw! ⠀ ⠀ GIVEAWAY:⠀ Enter to win a copy of Rise of the Dawnstar, Last of the Firedrakes, and some other swag!⠀ — follow me, @farahoomerbhoy author and @storygramtours⠀ — tag a friend who you think will be interested below⠀ For an extra entry:⠀ — Visit @deertales account tmrw and repeat these steps!⠀ RULES: ⠀ — Giveaway will end on June 29th at midnight⠀ — US only⠀ — must be 18 or older or have parental consent⠀ —must be a public account⠀ — this giveaway is not affiliated with Instagram⠀ ⠀ Want to learn more about Rise of the Dawnstar?

I’m so excited to be participating in the @storygramtours for The Rise of the Dawnstar by @farahoomerbhoyauthor! This is the second book in the epic young adult fantasy series The Avalonia Chronicles. The story follows Aurora Firedrake a young princess fighting to save her kingdom and her throne!!! Today I have a giveaway and some fun content provided by the author. . ANCIENT MAGIC The most dangerous and unpredictable kind of magic; ancient magic doesn’t exist in Avalonia anymore. There are old legends of ancient Fae queens who possessed this power, but that power is now long gone. Most of the information of the ancient age was lost in the Demon Wars when Dragath destroyed most of Avalonia. The only surviving text from the age of the ancient Fae, is The Book of Abraxas and the Fae Codex. • The only person ever known to have wielded this sort of magic is Auraken Firedrake, the first High King of Avalonia, and Aurora’s ancestor. He used this power to trap the demon lord Dragath in a magical prison within the depths of fiery Mt. Khatral, which lies beyond the Silverspike Mountains in the darklands of Maradaar. • Another who is known to have knowledge of ancient magic is the demon lord Dragath himself. Although Auraken’s powers were as strong as his, there is always the fear that one day Dragath (who is immortal) will break his magical chains and destroy the world with his darkness once more. • The Dawnstar – A legendary weapon which is said to contain the last of Avalonia’s ancient magic is Avalonia’s only defence against Dragath should he ever awake. .

Finally burning our Aurora Firedrake candle. It’s vanilla buttercream and we love it very much! . #livelaughbooksjune ~ most hated trope. We seriously dislike badly done triangles. However, when done right, they can be epic. Like in The Rise of the Dawnstar!!! One of those rare books where you find yourself shipping the losing end of the triangle. ?? .

I can’t believe it’s been a few days since I’ve posted!! Lots of things has happened since then! . ? I was down all day yesterday due to a migraine that left me sick for 12 hours. Do any of you suffer from migraines? What do you do to get rid of them? I suffer from cluster migraines… so I’ll get like 15-20 migraines a month and then I’ll have a month without them. Other than taking my prescription ( only 9 pills a month) and a coke or a coffee, there’s not much I can do but wait till it goes away! ? Also, after waiting for 5 months, my boyfriend and I FINALLY get to move into our apartment that we’ve been waiting for… AND we move in 2 weeks! We’re so incredibly excited and I’m even more excited because I’m buying two more book cases and height extenders for all of them! Gonna need a ladder too because I’m short AF… hahaha. Maybe I’ll finally start a youtube channel and my first video will be me reorganizing my bookcases LOL. ? Needless to say, these next few weeks are going to be pretty busy on my end, but I’m going to try to still make time to post at least once
every other day. Hope you don’t mind! . ?. I haven’t done a #bookhaul post in a while, but here are some of the books I’ve received in the last month or so! (SO MANY GREAT BOOKS!!! *Sqeals*). I plan on doing some separate posts of these books as well, but wanted to spotlight them as a group first. (A BIG THANK YOU to all of the amazing publishing companies and fantastic authors for sending so  many amazing books!!) ? PHEW. I wish I could list all of the books in this photo, but the caption is too long ? and stops mid list!!! (Check my story for close up of the books!?. QOTD: What books are you looking forward to reading this year?

I got an amazing package from @farahoomerbhoyauthor this last week that contained these two gorgeous books from the Avalonia Chronicles and tons of amazing swag!!!! . The first book is The Last of the Firedrakes and it sounds amazing!!!! I’ll put the full synopsis down below so you can check it out!!! . Synopsis: 16-year-old Aurora Darlington is an orphan. Mistreated by her adopted family and bullied at school, she dreams of running away and being free. But when she is kidnapped and dragged through a portal into a magical world, suddenly her old life doesn’t seem so bad. Avalonia is a dangerous land ruled by powerful mages and a cruel, selfish queen who will do anything to control all seven kingdoms—including killing anyone who stands in her way. Thrust headlong into this new, magical world, Aurora’s arrival sets plans in motion that threaten to destroy all she holds dear. With the help of a young fae, a magical pegasus, and a handsome mage, Aurora journeys across Avalonia to learn the truth about her past and unleash the power within herself. Kingdoms collide as a complicated web of political intrigue and ancient magic lead Aurora to unravel a shocking secret that will change her life forever. . . . . #book #books #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #bookstagrammer #booknookstagram #booklover #bookart #bookaddiction #bookaholic #booknerd #bookgeek #bookworm #bookphotography #bookpics #igbooks #bookish #amreading #bookishfeatures #epicreads #read #reading #bibliophile #bookstagramit A post shared by ??Bridget??

“When difficulties come, we must see them as what they are-opportunities and a new path to discover your potential. How will you ever know the magnitude of courage you are capable of if you have never experienced the hopelessness of fear?” – @farahoomerbhoyauthor . . . I saw this book on Amazon and it had really good reviews, one the reviews said it was similar to princess diaries and harry potter so I had to buy it. And I was not dissapointed at all. The story was fast paced and also had great characters and world building with a bit of romance. I can’t wait to continue on with the series!
