Bookish Beginnings on Friday| The Wolf Den – Elodie Harper

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

The Wolf Den is a book I’ve been seeing every since last year. It released in the UK last year and this year in the US. I recently received a copy of it and I have to say I’m curious. I’ve been wanting to read more historical fiction and Greek mythology is something I’m interested in. So a perfect book to use in a Bookish Beginnings on Friday post.

This meme was created by Rose City Reader. The idea is to post the first sentence or so of the book you’re currently reading. After that you talk about your initial thoughts about the sentence, book or anything to do with that.

A big thanks to Hodder & Stoughton for providing me with an ARC on Netgalley to read and review.

In December and January, TBR & Beyond did a group read of The Star-Touched Queen & A Crown of Wishes. After reading Aru Shah, I was really interested in the author’s other work. Because I read both books pretty close together in time, I decided to do a mini review for each book and post them together!

If you want to see what I thought of these two books, keep on reading!

Buddy Review| Fathom – Merrie Destefano

Published on by thebookdutchessesLeave a comment

We both happened to get a copy of this book to read and review. It sounded interesting to both of us, so we decided after we read it to review it together. We decided we will do more buddyreads than just once a month if we both happen to read the same book. Or in this case get the same book to review.
