ARC Review~ Labyrinth Lost


~Review~

Labyrinth Lost by Zoraida Cordova had a lot of potential. I fell in love with the idea of Alice in Wonderland mixed in with a little bit of Limbo filled me with excitement. Now I won't say that this book was terrible, I did still enjoy it but I felt like it didn't live up to the potential it could've. There were aspects I really enjoyed, but their were some that threw me off.

ARC~ World of Ink and Shadows


There were a lot of different aspects I loved throughout reading this book, and I am so glad that I could trade with Jamie from B&L and BAMF to get this book! I've decided to change up my review style today and tell you the 5 reasons why I loved this book.

but first here's a little bit about the book...


Title: Worlds of Ink and Shadow
Author: Lena Coakley
Publication date: January 5th 2016
Publisher: HarperCollins Canada
Source: ARC *Received through a trade with Jamie*
Format: ARC Paperback 
Description: Charlotte, Branwell, Emily, and Anne. The Brontë siblings have always been inseparable. After all, nothing can bond four siblings quite like life in an isolated parsonage out on the moors. Their vivid imaginations lend them escape from their strict upbringing, actually transporting them into their created worlds: the glittering Verdopolis and the romantic and melancholy Gondal. But at what price? As Branwell begins to slip into madness and the sisters feel their real lives slipping away, they must weigh the cost of their powerful imaginations, even as their characters—the brooding Rogue and dashing Duke of Zamorna—refuse to let them go.

Gorgeously written and based on the Brontës’ juvenilia, Worlds of Ink & Shadow brings to life one of history’s most celebrated literary families.
