Midnight Readers: Cover Reveal:~ Daughter of Smoke & Bone ...

 Wishes are false.Hope is true. Hope makes it's own magic.

Hey! Again, sorry it took me so long to write. I've been busy. I finished a book on Thursday, and all I can say is that it was AMAZING!!!!!!! DEFINITELY on my favourites list. I loved it!!!!
Daughter of Smoke and Bone is about a girl called Karou, who tries to keep her two lives in balance. One as an art student in Prague, and the other as a errand-girl to monstrous creature who collects teeth and grants wishes, who is the nearest thing she has to family. But Brimstone is keeping many secrets from her, and all of them are fatal as she tries to rescue her family and discover her past, helped by a fallen angel, a beautiful seraphim, and her best friend, small but feisty Zuzana.
It is the first in a trilogy, and once I've written this I'm going to order the second book, Days of Blood and Starlight, from the Library catalogue!

My favourite character was Karou, but I also loved Zuzana. I'd like to be more like her. (I'm really small too!)

In the book, there are lots of wishes of different strengths.
The weakest ones don't do much, and Karou is allowed to use them whenever she wants. I would probably use them to play little pranks. Oh! And I could use them to paint my nails, one Scuppy (the name of the weakest wish!) per nail! So much easier then polish!
 I would probably use Shings, the second weakest wish, to dye my hair, like Karou, or something like that. I'm not sure.
The Lucknow (third strongest) To learn a language, like Karou. (Or maybe grow wings and a tail...)
The Gavriel (Second strongest) I would use to be able to fly, and the strongest, the Bruxis, I have no idea what I would do with. Those wishes are so strong, so I would lock it up some-where safe until I really needed it!!!!
What would you do with the wishes? Comment below.
PLEASE read this book. It is amazing. It is great if you like fantasy, romance, and a whole lot of curiosity. (I was literally itching with it, Karou must have used a Scuppy on me, too)

Can You Smell It?

March Prompt - Favourite Scent. I've got to say, I don't really notice the smells around me - except the food ones -. Still, our noses are amazing things. Everything has its own individual scent. I don't have a favourite, but I'm going to share with you some of the ones I like. See if you can conjure up the scents I love without it being around you. I won't include food, or my list will go on forever. Our noses can remember 50,000 scents. Do you remember the same one I do? I'm going to start with snow. You don't always notice, but snow has a rather delicious smell. Like wind and flowers and cold. I wouldn't recommend sticking your head out the window and smelling it for long though, your nose might freeze off. We recently had the first snow settling this year! It doesn't happen a lot down in the valleys of south-west England. Up on the moors near us though, It snows much more. Another smell I adore is that of books. Old and new, larg

February prompt - RED                                                RED The first thing that comes to mind at the word red is blood. I guess that has to do with one of my favourite books RED QUEEN. Today I'm going to post a review of some books I have read with the word RED in the title. But first... More about the word red and what it means to me. "Red to call enchantment down" Never wear red with blue. Music For a while, Taylor Swift was my favourite singer. I have all her albums except Reputation. One of them is called Red.  Like many albums, this one is named after one of the songs. Listen to the track RED. CHORUS Losing him was blue like I'd never known Missing him was dark grey all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met But loving him was red Oh, red Burning red poems A few days ago I wrote a poem called RED and posted it on my blog as part of my Thirty Day
