I’ve just finished ‘the starless sea’ by @erinmorgenstern and I cannot tell you how much I needed this right now. With everything that’s going on in to word this is the magic I needed. Getting lost in this story has been a joy ✨💫

Two new books publishing today that I’m so excited to read next. Do you try to read books on their pub day? Thanks @ummyvonne for a copy of If You, Then Me and @getunderlined for a copy of Six Crimson Cranes. Swipe through to see the cover photos.

Both of these are my next reads and I’m so excited to get into them because they are both stories I would totally love. First up is If You, Then Me by Yvonne Woon: It’s a contemporary YA story about Xia who’s pretty lonely and bored. She talks to an AI app she’s designed to ask her future self questions. She also has a mysterious online crush known as ObjectPermanence. When Xia enrolls in an app incubator in Silicon Valley, she starts flirting with a classmate but she also learns that ObjectPermanence is there as well. It sounds geeky and romantic and I’m excited to see what happens to Xia and who she chooses.

The other book is Six Crimson Cranes by Elizabeth Lim. It’s a YA fantasy about Shiori, a princess with forbidden magic. When she goes out of control on her betrothal day, her evil stepmother banishes here and turns her brothers into cranes threatening Shiori with her brothers’ deaths if she spoke of this to anyone. It sounds adventurous and beautiful and sounds like such a beautiful fairy tale retelling. I cannot wait!

Are you excited for either of these stories? They’re out today! https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ_iqp9r8lC/?utm_medium=tumblr
