Hello my bookish friends. I have just finished the most hyped book, Fourth Wing and I am PROUD of myself. It consumed me the whole week of reading and I loved every single minute of it.

I had the exact same feels for both books, so that must be saying something. The Ivory Key follows four siblings, Via, Ronak, Rita and Kaleb. Each of the have gone their […]
