 Aurora has a hard life.She was adopted, when she was a baby. After her adoptive parents died, her uncle take her in. They are often mean to her and school is not much easies eather. 

 One day uncle takes her out of school, to go on trip. In the middle of the night she is kidnaped thrugh magical portal into another world. 

 With the help of fae, and Black Wolf (like a Robin Hood of Avalonia) she is saved, only to discover she accually belong in this worlds. She has a uncle, that will help her discover who she is and her powers. 

 She has to train, to develop her powers, so she can take what is rightfully hers. She is enrolled in magical school, where she trains to control her magic.

 I love the world of the story, it's that kind of world, I would love to live in. The book is full of action and fast paced. But... I wasn't biggest fan of Aurora, I just couldn't connect with her or root for her. And at times I felt like I missed a part of the story, there were quite big jump from here to there.

 Happy reading,

 Anie

Heroes are finally all together. They didn't have the best start, the peace with the Roman camp they were hoping for is long gone and they are planning on going after them.  They are on a ship, made by Leo, trying to come to the ancient land, but of course, it never goes smoothly for the heroes. Annabeth has a quest of her own to complete, she has to follow the Mark of Athena and find the statue that was lost for centuries. She is hoping that it will help bring peace between the camps, but the mission is not easy.  It's my favourite in the series so far- Percy and Annabeth are finally back together. :) And that cliffhanger at the end, omg! rating ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ cover  ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

This one is a bit different but in a good way. Charlie wants to say I Love You to Nick, but can't seem to find a good moment. Meanwhile, his mental health keeps getting worse, to the point that he needs more help than he can get at home.  Nick is consumed with worry. He worries about coming out to his dad, but mostly he worries about Charlie.  He sees him getting worse and worse, to the point that he doesn't spend much time at school.  They both have to come to terms that they can't be everything for each other and find a balance between love and everything else.  rating❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ artwork❤❤❤❤❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie
