Quarterly Wrap-Up (1): #SFFFridays

Welcome to the first quarterly update for
Science Fiction and Fantasy Fridays!

If this is your first time here, Science Fiction and Fantasy Fridays is my Friday Feature where I discuss Adult Science Fiction and Fantasy! So much of what I grew up reading was Adult SFF that I wanted to make sure I showcased it now that I'm actually an adult. From recommendations to reviews, I give you a wide variety of reading materials.

See below for the last three months of reviews, features, and some Instagram posts! Plus, I give you a behind the scenes look at what will be featured in the upcoming months here on Books and Ladders.

Reviews and Features

• A CONJURING OF LIGHT by V.E. Schwab

OMG. This blew me away. A fantasy of truly epic proportions.

• THE QUEEN OF BLOOD by Sarah Beth Durst

This was one of those books that didn't have any one large thing wrong with it that made me dislike it but a bunch of little things that added up to make it meh.

• HOUNDED by Kevin Hearne

I liked a lot of pieces to this one and didn't enjoy others, especially the aspects that you find all too often in Fantasy books written by men.

• SORCERER TO THE CROWN by Zen Cho

The characters are SO strong and the magic SO interesting that it made up for the prose!

• THE TRUE QUEEN by Zen Cho

THE TRUE QUEEN has magic, mayhem, and strong female characters that you root for the whole way through.

• MEM by Bethany C. Morrow

I really enjoyed this one and thought there was so much good conversation about "true" selves and what constitutes "yourself."

• PHOENIX UNBOUND by Grace Draven

I love the magic and, especially, the world building. I liked seeing how Gilene's magic worked and interacted with the world around her.
