7/15 Finished
Just completed my 1st #2 (pink) -The Freemason's Daughter by Shelley Sackier. Not a fan, especially at the end. The historical facts were inaccurate, the plot twists didn't make any sense, and the ending was nonexistent. Not to mention the author tried to create an intelligent, strong character that was constantly having to be saved - a contradiction that didn't help the book. Not worth reading. 2 stars8/45

Just completed my first #5 (Yellow) - Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton. I understand now why this book won a Goodreads Choice award. The writing is well-done, clear, and concise. It's a quick read without resorting to dumbed down language. The hero is incredibly relatable, being a scared kid who doesn't fully understand herself or the world. The fantasy world Hamilton created is different enough to be fantasy but close enough to reality to be easy to accept. It took me a bit to get into this book, which is why I docked it half a star, but overall, really good! Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars9/45
