I think The Wrath and the Dawn is my favorite book of this year. Loved it so much! Can’t wait to read The Rose and the Dagger! And also I’m dying to read ACOTAR and The Great Hunt! ♥

Yay for fairy tale retellings! I just finished Winter earlier this week and loved it—but I am so sad the series is over. I haven’t heard of a few you’ve included in this post, but I will definitely be adding them to my TBR list. 🙂
