This was a really cute, magical book! Lots of twists and turns. Reminded me a bit of The Night Circus but with more of a YA feel.

Can we please bring back words like "demure" into every day conversations? I adored this book! Utterly charming from beginning to end. ?

jessdean I LOVED this too!❤️😍 7y

So happy to finally be curled up with this one! It has a lot of hype to live up to.

lamaman2boys I keep putting it off, in part because I have such high expectations! But I also feel like I need the "perfect time" to read it. 7y
celtichik I struggled til about the third chapter or so....then I was so glad I didn't give up. I was also glad I read it on my paperwhite because there was lots of Russian history I wasn't familiar with 7y
christineandbooks @lamaman2boys Same! Really want to love it... 7y

Rayray33 @lamaman2boys I completely understand! I think that's why I waited so long too. And it also has a slower pace so I knew I needed to wait until I was ready for a read like that. 😊 7y
Rayray33 @celtichik I know so little of Russian history, I feel like I need to read up on it after this! 7y
celtichik @Rayray33 I'm pretty sure I'll be ready for a reread in a month or so...to go down all of the side roads of historical references. I think it could have the makings of a great opulent movie 7y

Ok, so maybe this is a harsh review because the first three fourths of it was actually really good. But I HATED the ending!

TrishB I just finished and reviwed too 😀 7y

The end of this book blew my mind a little. I really love books that can both entertain and surprise me. 😲🔥

Really branched out of my comfort zone this year and tried a lot of new genres. Here's hoping that 2017 will slow down some and I'll have more time to read! Here are my favorite nine from 2016 📚❤️ #2016bestnine

This book was incredible! What these men survived is truly remarkable. Any time I'm having a rough day, I need to pull this one out and remind myself what others have survived. So, so good.

Cals90 I own this but haven't read it yet! I hope to in 2017:). 7y

That moment when you sit down to read a new book you just picked up from the library and it's in Spanish 😂 #howdidinotnotice

What better way to wrap up Thanksgiving Day than by finding out who the murderer was?? This book kept me guessing to the end. 👍🏼👍🏼

It took me quite a while to really get into this one but man, it really picked up the pace at the end. This book makes me want to curl up with a cozy blanket and hot chocolate. #mmdbookclub

Had to stay up late finishing this one! Yeah it's a cheesy YA fantasy book but sometimes it's nice to kick back with a fun read like this. 🤗

I've been on the waiting list at the library for Commonwealth for weeks! So I just checked out like six other books in the meantime. I wonder if there's a limit... 😁 #tbr #librarybooks
