Fireblood
Fireblood: The Frostblood Saga Book Two | Elly Blake
The fiery, action-packed sequel to the New York Times bestselling Frostblood, perfect for fans of Red Queen and Throne of Glass. 'A fierce and vibrant world' Morgan Rhodes, bestselling author 'Hypnotising' Benjamin of Tomes Ice and fire are still at war. Ruby has defeated the tyrannous Frost King, and Arcus, the exiled warrior who captured her heart, has taken his rightful place as ruler of the Frostblood kingdom. But Ruby is the only Fireblood in a castle of frost and ice, and the courtiers will not accept her. Even worse, the dark threat released from the Frost King's melted throne is stalking the land, bent on destruction - and as the one who set it free, only Ruby can stop it. To find the knowledge she needs, she must leave Arcus and journey south to the land of the Firebloods. But the homeland Ruby's never seen is treacherous, and friend and enemy wear the same face. If she's to save both kingdoms, Ruby must figure out who she can trust - and unleash a fire powerful enough to do battle with darkness . . .

I am currently on page 299. I am really enjoying this action packed novel. It is quite fast paced and very engaging. Fireblood, the second book in the Frostblood series also has a bit of romance. A girl named Ruby struggles to prove her worth as a fireblood in a kingdom where their fearless queen tests the young girl's abilities.@MrsBabki @Cfischbuch

Cfischbuch You make it sound pretty good, might have to add it to my list. Is there more to the series? 4y
sophieman1121 Yes, there is also a third book to the series. 4y

I read Frostblood a few years ago. I probably should re-read it first, but I‘m trying to tackle my ever growing TBR pile, so Fireblood it is. Hoping to move right from this into Nightblood!

I hope you are all well and safe! I‘ve been distancing myself from social media as a way to decrease the anxiety in my life at this time. This series is one of my favorites though and you should definitely check it out!! (This is book 2 out of 3 🙂)

Pumpkinandegg313 Great series 💫. I've not long finished it. Definitely worth the read. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did 🙂 4y
Brittybuhh @Pumpkinandegg313 I‘ve read through the whole series twice already. 🤣 I really liked it! I‘ve been considering another reread 4y
Pumpkinandegg313 Oh I see lol! Nothing wrong with that. I do the same with Mark Lawrence books! 4y

This an awesome series. Fire blood starts with Ruby being treated as a lady amongst the frost court. However it doesn‘t take long before she ventures off on a further journey. I found this book exciting and full of unexpected storyline‘s that make the book a joy to read. Definitely a book I would recommend to all lovers of epic fantasy. Can‘t wait to read the next book.

A little behind on the reading. Any advice on handling readings slumps? (Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/Tarankaur)

Samreamer Something that I love is tracking my reading. There‘s this app I use called “Leio”. You can scan the barcode of the book your reading, push “Read” and it‘ll time you. It ends up telling you how many pages per minute you read, how many hours left until you finish your book based on your speed, etc. It‘s kinda fun, and it‘s definitely pushed me to read more. Oh, and it‘s $free.99! 5y

I absolutely loved this book!! I read this in one sitting and wasn‘t able to put the book down. From the development of the characters to the riveting plot, I held onto every word! This really was a page turner and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good romance/action/fantasy book!! One of the best books I have read so far!!

Received an amazingly awesome, sweet, and super nice surprise today from the @MinDea herself. A replacement Fireblood that the post office lost and a really cool graphic novel I have been wanting to read (I read the original book so this will be a great way to refresh my memory.

Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU so much. !!!

MinDea Wahoo!!! Sooooooooo glad it made it this time! 🎉🎉 I read the book but I had no idea there was a graphic novel of it til I saw it on one of your shelves on GR! I hope you like it! 6y

I F*^%ING HATE The POST OFFICE!!!!

Yes I meant to scream that!

The saga continues. I took my beautiful empty package to the closest full service post office to my house. They told me they couldn't help me and sent me to the Northern Distribution Center. What they forgot to tell me is that the NDC closes at 4 PM and it was already 4:45. So new day new post office. Head over there so they can tell me they are not full service (which I knew)👇🏻

LibrarianRyan They sent me to main branch on Cook Street. Spent my entire lunch break in line at Cook street so they could tell me that They couldn't help and I had to do everything online!! They couldn't have told me that 3 DAYS AGO!!!!!! So now I have to have them run a "find my mail" search. Lovely. I think I imputed the information about the book 4 times. And my address 2 times. I HATE the post office!!! 6y
britt_brooke OMG. That‘s all absolutely ridiculous. Sorry you‘re having to deal with this! 6y

@MinDea

Hey girl. I want to let you know I got your package. It was empty. I know you sent it full, and I have a locking mailbox.

I'll be going to the post office on Monday to file a complaint. Was there anything besides the book? Like a letter? You can tell it was pulled open.

I'm very thankful for you for sending me the book. I'm perturbed at the mail thief in the post office. Thank you again for your generosity.

LazyDays You can ask them what sorting facility it went through, and see if maybe it fell out while being processed. 6y
LibrarianRyan @LazyDays you can tell this wasn't an accident. These self seal envelopes are hard to get open. It's all tore up. But not tore up like it got caught on equipment. Tore up like someone lifted from the corner and tore the seal open. 6y
LazyDays Some people are just terrible. I'm sorry this happened 😞 6y
LibrarianRyan @LazyDays thank you. I'm more irked than anything. @Mindea went out of her way to send me a copy of this book and someone ruined her beautiful effort. I also have a missing Amazon package list in transit for over a week and a new Amazon package delayed. I'm just a little annoyed at the post office right now. 6y
LazyDays Maybe you can put your mail on hold, so it stays at the post office. 6y
LibrarianRyan @LazyDays I've thought of that. But I have a locked mailbox. Even tracking say neither missing box has been delivered. Plus my local delivery people are really nice. They deliver so many books. I always gift them a few when I get a chance to talk to them. One brings treats for the dogs. 6y
LazyDays Some sorting facilties can be really hard in packages.😞 I hope everything gets better💕 6y
MinDea Oh no. I am so sorry to hear this! I feel terrible. I'll reach out to the post office on Mo day too. See if we can figure this out. I can definitely get it replaced. It had insurance on it There was just a little note in it. Ugh. People are so horrible! 6y
LibrarianRyan @MinDea do not got to any extra trouble. Let me see what I can do on my end. You did awesome sending it in the first place. 6y
LeahBergen What the hell?? 😮 6y
MinDea Would the tracking number help? Please let me know what you'd like me to do. This isn't right and I will do what I can to help make this right. I just fou d out media mail isn't insured! 😔😠 however they should still replace this! Let me know what you find out. I really don't mind talking to my post office too. 6y

I finished this book a few days ago and i have to say that i liked it very much! I still can't stand Arcus but I love Ruby and Kai and the other characters. Arcus is just a Dumb, is that character you scream at while you are reading: "shut uppppp". Except fot the absurd romance, i liked Fireblood as much as Frostblood, but it still reminds me A LOT of ToG ?

Ugh, Arcus, shut up.

4/5 🌟
The story is amazing. Yes you can see the similarities to other books but it' s unique. Not the best writing skills, but I am not saying it's bad neither. All I'm saying is that her words were missing a melody to it.
Ruby, I think is just lost in a world she never knew before, trying her best to be what people expect her to be.
Arcus made me dream. He's the guy most girls dream about. Sweet, protective, kind, romantic and loyal.

So, a couple weeks ago I won this #Giveaway from @bookriot (#ThankYou). Today the box arrived with the books. They sent me 10. That's right TEN!. Was this a typo on the order or is this on purpose? What the heck do I do with all of these???

#Help #Confused Has this ever happened to anyone else?

[DELETED] 3803335244 I would just message them. I wouldn't think you would have to send them back because that would cost more than 1 book in postage?!? Then if they said keep them, 9 other lucky friends will be thankful. 💜💜 6y
MinDea @ForeverNerdy thanks! That is what I did. I emailed them and hope the address they contacted me about winning is checked and someone replies. Have you read the first book to this series (Frostblood)? 6y

Captivatedbybooks Sounds interesting 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 @MinDea I have read Frostblood. I read it when it came out. It's very similar to a few other ya books in the mix. I enjoyed book 1, so if you haven't read it I recommend it. I think other people on the thread are right. Have you thought of starting a book club in your area? It would be fun. ❤️ 6y
GondorGirl She's going to be at the same show as me in a couple weeks! I need to read something of hers before I go. 6y
BooksTeasAndBookishThings @Laalaleighh haha omg same thing I wondered. I thought when they said 10 copies for 10 Riot readers I assumed one per winner, but they literally mean 10 per winner. I guess it benefits them, though. I shared almost all with book lovers and book lovers talk books to other book lovers so it helps promote? 6y
MinDea @BooksTeasAndBookishThings Wow! Ok. I plan to give them to the library but maybe give some away here on Litsy. This is the second book to the series. Have you read it? Is it good? 6y
BooksTeasAndBookishThings @MinDea No, I actually received the ARC in a Book exchange and then received it in my Uppercase. I have too many ahead of it on my TBR right now. I took like a 2.5 month hiatus on reading because of moving and unpacking and being pregnant lol I am playing some serious catch up on my books. (edited) 6y
MinDea @Robothugs do you read this genre? Have you read the first one? 6y
Redjewel_7734 Sounds like the perfect start of a book club 😊 6y
Robothugs Oh! I have the first one and was planning to read it soon! So strange they sent you 10! 6y
MinDea @Robothugs expect the second one with your letter then! Can't wait to hear your review to see if you think it'd be worth me getting the first one or not! 6y
