Welcome to Litsy!

Emily & Wendell take the throne from his murderous stepmother but before they can get settled, they find a blight is moving across the land, killing plants and turning creatures into mindless killers.
Emily does what she does best: researching & running headlong into dangerous situations that will ultimately fix the problem but with unexpected consequences. But this time, she has underestimated those around her.
A great conclusion to the trilogy!

Emily is back in the field, this time hunting for a hidden back door into Wendell‘s realm and plotting her next book: a map of the fae lands. Things get complicated when Wendell‘s stepmother sends assassins after him. When the situation gets even worse, Emily and her niece/assistant brave a solo mission into the Otherlands to bring back a new ally.

Loved this installment in the Emily Wilde trilogy!

Excited to get this book & peppermint bark. I have consumed so much peppermint chocolate in the last month, & I love having more. Thank you & Merry Christmas Kim! @BarkingMadRead #jolabokaflodswap @MaleficentBookDragon

I thought I‘d love this cozy fantasy, but I just could not get into it. Every time I sat down to read it I fell asleep. It could have been that it‘s a busy, tiring time but for whatever reason, I had to set it aside. I‘m bummed!

And another one bites the dust!

I enjoyed this and almost feel guilty for not loving it but somehow I don't. I kept thinking about other books; it's got kind of an Amelia Peabody-ish vibe, though with a more Lord Peter/Harriet relationship, and some Jonathan Strange-esque footnotes. I did really like the very gentle touch of sexiness -- Wendell's collarbone, OMG -- but perhaps it just didn't make Emily appealing enough for me.

I colored this picture and wrote this story about it.

I‘m not normally huge on fairies. I really enjoyed the setting of this one though - it was perfect for November.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This series has been such a joy! I do think the first book is the best, but I am so sad that the story is over. I could have followed Emily, Wendell, and, of course, Shadow all over Faerie forever.
The audiobook narrator, Ell Potter, is also so excellent that I‘m planning to look up other books she‘s narrated just to keep listening to her.
Highly recommend this series!
