The Scourge of Magic (Academy of Falling Kingdoms 3)
By Marisa Mills and Drake Mason
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A floating kingdom. An ancient secret. A desperate hope.

With the help of her new friends in Reverie and the demon companion in her magic sword, Wynter Wilcox opened the chamber beneath the city and discovered the true secret to the kingdom’s power. But when King Gregory learns the truth about the rogue mage that has infiltrated the academy, he declares war on the rival kingdom of Aubade and sends Dorian off to the battlefield.

There’s only one way to stop the destruction: sneak into Aubade and free the demons supporting the floating kingdom. Just when they’re about to succeed, a crippled mage reveals a secret about Wynter’s past that forces her to choose sides. For her friends to survive, the kingdom must fall.

I’ve really enjoyed this series and this was a such a good conclusion to it. Full of action and drama it’s hard to say too much without spoilers so I won’t I’ll just happily recommend for YA fantasy fans.

I completely invested myself in the world that Kingdom of Souls was set in: a young girl, Arrah, is the daughter of two powerful Witch Doctors, who themselves come from a long line of Witch Doctors. But when Arrah comes of age, her powers do not come with it. She’s incapable of even the simplest acts of magic. So when children start disappearing, one of them being a friend of hers, Arrah decides to buy magic from a Charlatan. The cost is years from her life for every magical act. But in borrowing her powers, Arrah discovers a terrible secret. That all Witch Doctors, all people, are in grave danger.

I really enjoyed this - it’s completely immersive, and every detail needed to build an alternate world is thought of. The end could have been a bit more succinct and to the point, and I’m always a bit sad when a previously strong female character seems to lose it over a man, but on the whole, I really enjoyed this and will look out for the next in the series on audible (I really enjoyed the audiobook)

Jilo ( Witching Savannah #4 )
By J.D. Horn
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Aged Mother Jilo is wise in the ways of magic...but once upon a time, she was just a girl.

1950s Georgia: King Cotton has fallen. Savannah is known as the "beautiful woman with a dirty face," its stately elegance faded by neglect, its soul withering from racial injustice and political corruption.

Young Jilo - fiercely independent, intelligent, and ambitious, but thwarted by Savannah's maddeningly genteel version of bigotry - finds herself forced to embrace a dark power that has pursued her family for generations, an ancient magic that may prove her salvation...or her undoing.


This was just what we needed! I love Jilo and it was so good to get her story and the back story of the Taylor’s too. This book was just creepy as hell in some parts and I’m referring to Poppy if you’ve read it the hairs on the back of my neck stood up! I’m sad to see this all wrapped up as the series was so good. I think I may have to start over.
