Into the Dim | 
pickMy mother and sister in law read this beauty before me, so the hype was real. This was a wonderful journey and I am “patiently” waiting for the library to get the next in the series.
This is one that I‘d recommend going in blind with. That‘s what my mom did and she had so much fun! I knew what it was about, and didn‘t have as much fun. But it was still good!
pickThis book was so good. It was a nice change from what I typically read. I am a history nerd so I loved all of the historical references and being immersed in a different time period. Highly recommend and can‘t wait to get my hands on the next book.
I can‘t wait to start this. Hopefully I finish it and don‘t mark it as dnf.
pickFinally read the second in the series :) It was great to read about time traveling in victorian period
pickThis was a fun, fast read that would make a great palate cleanser in between heavier books. Not a perfect book but definitely a good first in a series. The characters could use more fleshing out and the time travel technique needs to be expanded on, but the historical details and the story being set up are both incredibly intriguing. Looking forward to reading the second book to see if the series delves deeper into its own mythos. 👇🏼
Next up. I know nothing about this other than it contains timetravel and includes Eleanor of Aquitaine. Sold.
Getting ready to start a new book, and just enjoying these beauties.
Alright. Onslaught of ebook deals on the way. #ebookdeals #kindledeals #kobo #nook
pickTime travel seems to be a recurring theme in my reading recently. I liked the blend between the ancient mystical and the "modern" Tesla tech that made the whole thing possible. Add a few folks out of time, throw in Eleanor of Aquitaine (yay!), Thomas a Beckett (boo!), and a ginormous opal and there's your adventure. Wish there wasn't the "chosen one but unaware of it" trope but that's a YA special these days. Book 2 gets released today 8/1/17.
Local (not in my town, but a nearby town I was visiting) Indie bookstore haul! I'm really excited about both of these books!
pickThis novel was so captivating! There is so much detail and thought put into every word on the page. While some of the plot was a bit predictable, I wasn't really bothered by it, as it felt like it was where the story should naturally go. I give this book 4/5 stars
pickInto The Dim by was one of my absolute favourite books of 2016. I'm a huge fan of time travel books, and Into The Dim is about a girl that discovers that she is part of a secret society of time travellers and ends up travelling back to the 12th Century to find and rescue her mother. It had all of the time travel elements that I love, and more. So when I was sent an ARC of Sparks of Light I was pretty freaking excited (the book in the picture).
pickUm, how is no one talking about this book?? It's bonkers! Everything I love in a good book - action/ adventure, mystery, and romance all so well written you get swept along for the ride! It beautifully crosses genres and brilliantly includes story elements of fantasy, science, romance, historical fiction, family drama, mystery, thriller, and coming of age tales. This is one of my favorites of the year, can't wait for more from Janet Taylor!
pickI'm perplexed by the mixed reviews for this book - I thought it was great!
A few thoughts:
1-it takes some time to build up to the time travel + action, but worth the wait
2-there are lots of reveals, historical details + colorful characters
3-the romance aspect is my least favorite part of the story and could probably be a little tighter
4-audio narration by Amanda Ronconi is fantastic! 👏🏻
The long wait between series books is killer! 😩
SO MUCH FUN!
Of my almost-three books completed: two were print + audiobook and one was ebook only. The audios tend to make my reading slower but I don't mind a bit! I didn't do extra giveaways/contests this time, but I'm sure I will next time ⭐️
Thank you to Litsy + #24in48 for making this event so great! I'm excited that I was able to read so much even with a busy family all around me for the full 48 hours. I totally want to do this again.
Third book of the #24in48 #readathon 👉🏻 I'm pretty sure that I won't finish this book before the event is over, but I've been chipping away at it all day and I'm really enjoying it!
(Also I love the cover on the right!)
pickEnjoyed this ya adventure! I'm a sucker for all things time travel and this was a fun, fast read for the #24in48 readathon. 😊 #timetravel
pickSurprisingly good. A great summer read with a sequel coming next year. A little magic makes everything better. #24in48 book 2 down, onto the next one 👍🏽
Excited to start this YA adventure/romance with time travel! It has a blurb from Diana Gabaldon Herself on the front cover. 😀😍☺️!!!
Book Mail! Into the Dim by Janet B. Taylor and Burning Glass by Kathryn Purdie. What did you get in the mail today? 📖📪
so-soI enjoyed it. It was an interesting read and had a very cool premise. I personally am a big fan of the Outlander series and Into The Dim had just SO many similarities to Outlander it was tough not to notice them.
