I’ve been meaning to read LEGENDBORN by Tracy Deonn since forever. I’m disappointed with myself for not yet getting around to it😭

And no, TikTok didn’t make me buy it; I wanted to read it because it sounds amazing—and it’s one of few YA fantasy books I’ve seen with a Black MC✨

#TBRuary #booksky
Cover of Legendborn by Tracy Deonn Blurb of LEGENDBORN by Tracy Deonn: After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants to escape. A residential programme for bright high-schoolers seems like the perfect opportunity—until she witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus... A flying demon feeding on human energies. A secret society of so-called "Legendborn" that hunt the creatures down. A mysterious mage who calls himself a "Merlin" and who attempts - and fails - to wipe Bree's memory of everything she saw. The mage's failure unlocks Bree's own unique magic and a buried memory about her mother. Now Bree will do whatever it takes to discover the truth, even infiltrate the Legendborn. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur's knights and foretell a magical war, Bree must decide how far she'll go for the truth. Should she use her magic to take the society down—or join the fight?

Amaya would happily go to jail, apparently🤷‍♀️

#WIPsnips: ‘perish’ > ‘kill’ (there were plenty of instances of ‘die’ and ‘death’ but all of them were too depressing for a Monday😅)

#writesky #romancebooks #booksky
"What, you don't trust me with your mum?" "Don't be ridiculous, Maya." "You can book your annual leave when I do, stay home and make sure I don't... poison her." I roll my eyes. "Now you've mentioned poison, I'll have to keep an eye on you. Maybe even monitor what you feed me." He eyes his plate suspiciously. I know he's joking but... "Get over yourself! You're not worth going to jail over.” He chuckles. "Or maybe I'll happily go to jail for killing you." Ash laughs harder. Moodboard titled ‘A Most Inconvenient Arrangement’ with five images: London skyline, a couple embracing in a nightclub, a young woman dressed in smart office wear, a close-up of a young couple about to kiss, a young couple arguing, a man in the middle of removing his shirt. The moodboard has the premise of the story written above it, which reads: “Heartbroken by the man she loves and the topic of office gossip because of it, Amaya now has to find somewhere new to live, too. So of course, she thinks an arranged marriage will solve all her problems! When Ashraf proposes marriage minus love—because he doesn’t want to love again but has to marry due to his mother’s ultimatum—it’s ideal for Amaya and they tie the knot. How long before this arrangement becomes inconvenient?”

*yearning* is trending, but I don’t write yearning like I used to😭 (probably because I don’t read Rumi like I used to)
Though her hair was a mess, her face shiny and puffy from her tears, he thought he’d never seen such a beautiful sight before, one he would happily devour for the rest of his life. Though he heard the storm come and go, bringing more rain and thundering winds, he thought he could hear Mukti’s breath as though she was still breathing in his ear. Though he didn’t enjoy the silences between them as much as he did their bickering and banter, if all wordless moments were as glorious as this one, he would relish every soundless moment they shared from now on.

Illustration of Weird Al playing his accordion in front of Batman and Superman. Superman seems way more into it.

ICE/CBP want to terrify people into submission and compliance so that they can operate with impunity, unimpeded, in semi-secrecy. It is not working. In every urban center these masked goons descend upon, the local community is rallying in solidarity.
