REVIEW: The Elgin Conspiracy by Julia Golding

My Rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆

Dora and Jacob are are back! It's the year 1812 in England and this time around, they're investigating a threat to Lord Elgin surrounding his Greek Marbles (statues). But when one of Elgin's colleagues turns up dead, the investigation turns dangerous, and Dora and Jacob go undercover to discover all the dirt they can. Assassins, secrets, and deceit are uncovered along the way. These two make the best sleuthing team! In the funnest and funniest ways possible of course.

The Elgin Conspiracy is the follow-up to the fun and adventurous The Persephone Code. While it can be read standalone, it greatly enhances the reading experience to have read The Persephone Code first for greater insight into the main characters and their backgrounds. I will definitely be on the lookout for more from this dynamic duo.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher, One More Chapter, for providing me with an Advance Reader Copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.

REVIEW: The Last Wrathwitch by David Paul George

My Rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆

The Last Wrathwitch is the bewitching tale of Affinity Blending, teenage witch. She's on a mission to save her mom from a witch-hunting demon who's imprisoned her in Hell, and discovers a lot about herself in the process.

Affinity was a very likeable character who didn't take no for an answer and questioned everything she encountered, kind of like me. :) Well, maybe I'm not likeable (or maybe I am), but at least the latter two. ;) It was a fun, quick read with an engaging story, a captivating magic system, and detailed world building.

Special thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an Advance Readers Copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
