A quick read, with good writing that falls into comfortable shifter-fantasy tropes, however this also includes some I don't love. 3.5 Stars overall.
Sacrificed to the Dragon by Jessie Donovan
The Silver Arrow by Lev Grossman
I highly recommend this for any of your children, nieces, nephews, or even for us big kids who are looking for a touch of wild magic ourselves.
Katheryn Howard, the Scandalous Queen by Alison Weir
To me this story was a long drawn out cautionary tale. While I didn't always love Katheryn's decisions. . .
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
Beautiful and alluring, the enigma that is The Night Circus is a story that will stay with you and take over your heart.
Flame by Donna Grant
Flame was a good, quick read. It had good characterizations and an interesting plot.
Highland Deception by Lori Ann Bailey
I was looking for an easy to read romance. Well I got it, and it did hit what should have been all my favorite notes in a Scottish romance, but I didn't fall in love with it.

The Maid of King’s Court by Lucy Worsley
Worsley's story was a perfect quick read, focuses on Katherine Howard and her fictional cousin Eliza and they grow and make their way through court.
The Wrath and The Dawn by Renée Ahdieh
The Wrath & the Dawn was nothing I was expecting. This re-imagined Arabian Nights is woven with mystery and plot.
