Blog 5: New Book Chosen!! (February 22)

Updated: Feb 26, 2019

The review for Six of Crows will be uploaded soon.


Hello! I am back this week with some good news. I have successfully finished reading Six of Crows. The review will be on tomorrow on the review page. In this blog, I will introduce the new book that I am going to read. As usual, it is going to be a fantasy book, but the interesting thing about this book is that it is translated from French to English. It is called A Winter's Promise by Christelle Dabos. This book was recently translated last year and many people were reading it. I also wanted to try reading the book.



Summary:

Where once there was unity, vastly different worlds now exist. Over each, the spirit of an omnipotent and immortal ancestor abides.

Long ago, following a cataclysm called the Rupture, the world was shattered into many floating celestial islands, known now as arks. Ophelia lives on Anima, where inhabitants can read the pasts of objects. What’s more, she is also a “mirror-traveler,” possessing an ability that has been passed down to her through generations. Her idyllic existence on Anima is disrupted when she is promised in marriage to Thorn, an influential member of a distant clan. Still only a girl, Ophelia must leave her family and follow her fiancé to Citaceleste, the capital of a cold and icy ark called Pole. But there, her future husband seems indifferent to her and she slowly realizes that her presence on Pole is part of a much bigger plot and has far-reaching ramifications not only for her but for her entire world.

An unforgettable heroine, an insightful study of relationships, a rich and bountiful universe, intrigue and suspense, A Winter’s Promise is perfect for readers of Margaret Rogerson, Scott Westerfeld, Melissa Albert, and N.K. Jemisin.
