most anticipated book of the year

It's HEREEEE. THE BALLAD OF NEVER AFTER I could throw apples in the air and wish they were roasted by tiny dragons in the Magnificent North, because it's time to catch up with Evangeline Fox and Jacks and the mysterious prophecy.

It's been so fun to follow Stephanie Garber's career after her Caraval series brought some much needed magical escapism back into my reading, and to see how far she's come and EXACTLY what she's created is such a delight. I have no doubt that this will be her best book yet, and I truly cannot wait to review it with millions of exclamations and hearts.

Until that non happily ever after, here's some serious fangirl excitement for reading this book!

BEYOND joyful with my sister as we received our preorders! And then trying to channel Evangeline Fox vibes at work.

Happy reading!
