This freaking book. Just to get this out of the way, this was not a good book. As many reviewers at Booklikes noted, this YA fantasy novel hit every trope that many of us readers are tired of reading. Main character is the best (insert name of thing) ever. There is purple prose galore. World...
The Bone Witch is a beautiful book, telling the story of Tea as she discovers that she is an asha, one with very rare abilities. The writing is lyrical and descriptive, allowing you to see the world through Tea's eyes. It is written in two alternating points of view and the voices are very differe...
The writing is beautiful. The world building is superb. And that alone is why I'm not rating this (usually a DNF gets a 1-star from me). I think I just am not in the mood for a slow-paced novel right now. I've been reading it for over a MONTH. This is unheard of. I whiz through books. I would pick i...
A fantasy book set in a fantasy land with many asha's who all have different skills. Tea is one who has VERY different and rare skills. She is able to do things that a lot of asha's are not able to do. She is taken from her homeland to learn how to use her skills when she is just 14 years old. This ...
The Bone Witch, Rin Chupeco's latest novel is striking. I haven't read anything quite like it, and found it wonderful. Tea can raise the dead. But raising her brother was an accident. Many women are asha, those who can control elemental magic, but very few can practice necromancy. Fortunately thou...
I received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review. First off let me say the cover is AWESOME looking. Love the purple and it just overall stands out. So I am not too big on fantasy books just because sometimes the worlds that are created either do not appeal too me or they just seem way to...
People keep calling Tea a villain, but I don’t think so. She’s a one-woman rebellion against her oppressors. Of course, villains think they’re the heroes of their own stories….I’m still on her side. BURN IT DOWN AND MAKE IT BETTER, TEA!Yes, it’s long and slow and not action-packed but it is beautifu...
When Tea accidentally resurrects her brother from the dead, she learns she is different from the other witches in her family. Her gift for necromancy means that she’s a bone witch, a title that makes her feared and ostracized by her community. But Tea finds solace and guidance with an older, wiser b...
Bravo! Seriously, this book was excellent. I made it evident that I wasn't a huge fan of Rin Chupeco's first book, The Girl From the Well. It started out strong, but it just didn't hold up the way I wanted it to. I wanted terror. I wanted ghosts. I'm happy to say that The Suffering offered all of th...
