Resultat d'imatges de jessica cluess a shadow*A shadow bright and burning - Jessica Cluess: It's about a medieval world, with witches and magicians, where women are underestimate (the society is sexist), but the one (a female wizard) has to safe the people from the enemies' attack.
It's interesting because there's a fight between magicians and sorcerers, the last aren't allowed to practise magic, and it's addictive due to the fact that Jessica has a very enchanting writing style. I recommend it a lot, it isn't a waste of time, if you like fantasy and a bit of romance.

Mark: 9/10

Resultat d'imatges de the forbidden wish jessica khoury*The forbbiden wish - Jessica Khoury: A new version of the Aladdin's tale; more feminist, up-to-date and adventurous. If you like Disney stories you can't lose these novel, it won't disappoint you! I recommend it a lot because I felt in love with the characters, the plot twists and the action; it was better tan I expected :)

English interview to the author







Resultat d'imatges de Angel fall susan ee*Angel fall - Susan Ee: It's an apocalyptic future where the angels try to exterminate humans, there's a war between the two species, and a girl falls in love with one of them. They make a kind of alliance and go throw some adventures that will get them closer. It's a very beautiful love story and the book is full of action, plot twits and tension moments. I totally recommend it :)

Resultat d'imatges de graceling kristin cashore*Graceling - Kristin Cashore: In Katsa's world, set in the Middle Ages, there are humans who are born with a very special trait. Rarely, one can be born with eye heterocromia, this indicating they have been blessed (or cursed, depending on who you ask) with an extreme skill: a Grace.
And Katsa, part of the loyal family, is one of those people. She was Graced with the skill of killing, and is being used by the king for his own purposes... until Katsa rebels against him.
This fantasy book has action and a pinch of romance, also the mistery of the Graced ones is still hidden, adding a little bit of suspense.

Resultat d'imatges de a court of thorns and roses*A Court of Thorns and Roses -  Sarah J.Maas: Feyre is a simple human who has to take care of her family by hunting animals so that they can survive. Due to their poverty they depend on Feyre's habilities and she's always in the forest looking for food. But, one day, she has to face a diferent type of animal: it's an immortal faerie, the ones from the legends, and she's forced to kill him if she wants to live. However, she doesn't know the consecuences, until a Fae drags her to their magic world in punishment for having killed his friend...
An amazing fantastic world, incredible descriptions and magic essence... totally recommend it to any fantasy lover.

Serie Conclusion

22544764. sx318 *Unprooted - Naomi Novik: (Yes, I'm recommending this book again, I'll never shut up about it) Agniezka lives in a calm village, isolated from everything, near the Wood. Yes, the Wood in capital letters because it's not a typical forest... magic lives within it and horrible creatures haunt humans who are brave or stupid enough to go too deep. That's why the Dragon, a wizard that lives in a tower, acceded to protect them from the evil, but with one condition: he will chose a girl from the village each 10 years....
Spectacular magical description, a very original and twisted idea, different from anything you've readed before,

Thanks so much for your interview, Nymmynbooks! Here are my answers! :)

1. What do you think writing means to our actual society? I think it's both a lens and an escape. A lens because stories are a "safe" place for us examine our own society's struggles, while being more insulated from them than if we just read the news all the time (I don't know about you, but that gets emotionally exhausting for me!) It's also an escape when we need a safe place to retreat to--whether it's a cozy romance, a magic-slinging fantasy, or a voyage to a futuristic galaxy. I think every person needs a comfortable, interesting place to retreat to, and for me, books have always been that place.

2. Why have you decided to inspire your novel in a Disney's story? Actually, it's not based on the Disney story at all! I don't think I've even watched the film since I was a kid. There are some similarities, of course, but that's because both The Forbidden Wish and the Disney movie draw from the same original source material--Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp, from the 1001 Nights, which I read and studied extensively in preparation for writing this book.

3. Which do you think is the most important value that a book has to have? I think that even if a book has the most interesting world, clever plot, and fantastic twists, it's not going to mean anything unless the story connects with its reader--and that happens through characters. Complex, flawed, and ultimately admirable characters generate plot, make their worlds interesting due to their unique points of view, and provide the eyes and mind the reader will inhabit through the story.

4. How would you describe your own style? My style is influenced a lot by poetry, which I used to write a lot of, and which you see reflected in Zahra's voice. With her character, I got to lean into that flowing, highly descriptive prose more than in any of my other books, in a way that feels natural for her when it wouldn't for many other narrators. I think that's why her voice always felt so strong in my mind even from the beginning of the story.

5. Could you talk a bit about your future projects? What will they be dealing with? Coming up next is my first middle grade book, which I'm so excited to share since it's been YEARS in the making! It's called The Mystwick School of Musicraft--and it's kind of like "if Hogwarts had a school of music." It's about a world where music creates magic and every song is a spell, and a 12 year old flutist gets a once-in-a-lifetime chance to attend the "Musicraft" school of her dreams--but first she must prove she's got what it takes to play with the best young musicians in the world. It's coming out as an Audible Original audiobook this fall (with a print edition soon to follow) that will include some really exciting extra features--I'll have more to announce about that soon!

6. Which is your favourite character in your story? Why? For me, Zahra has always been the star of The Forbidden Wish. For years before I actually wrote the book, she was a character who constantly whispered in the back of my mind, demanding to have her story told. No other character I've written has called to me quite as strongly as she did. While I love all the characters in the book (Caspida is a close second!) Zahra is my favorite.

7. Why did you change the sex of the genie? Years ago I saw a great cosplay of a  guy and a girl dressed as characters from the Prince of Persia video game, and looking at them I thought, "They could be Aladdin and the genie--WHOA! What if the genie were a girl who fell in love with Aladdin? That would change EVERYTHING." Once the idea came to me, it was something I KNEW I had to write. 

8. What do you recommend to aspiring writers? Could you give us some advice? The best way to grow is to write a LOT. Obviously most writers are already readers--and reading a lot is also crucial--but I think many young writers fall into the trap of comparing their work to others, especially published, established authors (I know I sure did this!) It's unfair to ourselves to compare our beginnings to the work of a veteran who's been at this far longer. Be kind to yourself, write a lot, and be patient. If the passion is there and you put in the work, you will only improve!

9. Are you happy with your job? Even on my worst days when I stare numbly at a blank page and have no idea what to put on it--yes! I'm so incredibly happy to do this for a living. It's not something I ever really thought I would do, even though I know I wanted it really, really badly. So every day I am reminded of how lucky and grateful I am.

10. Could you tell us which three whishes would you ask to the genie? Putting aside things like "heal every sick person" and "prevent all injustice in the world", my more selfish wishes would be 1) the ability to stop time when I am reading, so I'd have time to finally get through my massive TBR! LOL 2) the ability to teleport to any place in the world so I could take an instant vacation whenever I wanted, to wherever I wanted, and 3) for a ticket to see FC Barcelona (and Messi) play!! Or for a time-travel ticket that would take me back to the World Cup 2010 finals to see Spain win---they've been my favorite national team since I was a little girl! :)

Kisses, Nos leemos,

Nymmyn

Sinopsis del libro:
"Soy la esclava de la lámpara. Tengo el poder de concederte tres deseos". Zahra lleva tanto tiempo encerrada en su lámpara que, cuando un ladronzuelo la descubre, se topa con un mundo muy distinto: ahora, la magia está prohibida y su nombre se ha convertido en una leyenda. Una aterradora por lo que le hizo a su anterior ama. Decidida a huir, Zahra acepta el trato que le propone el rey de los genios: la libertad a cambio de una terrible traición. Para conseguir su objetivo deberá ocultar su verdadera identidad y no separarse de su nuevo amo. Al fin y al cabo, Aladdín todavía tiene tres deseos que elegir.

Sinopsis con avances:

Una aventura de genios y lámparas que tiene mucho que mostrarnos. Zahra tendrá que internarse en el palacio para salvar al hijo del shaitán, al cuál han apresado los humanos, y deberá convencer a su amo, Aladdín, para poder llevar a cabo su cometido y conseguir su libertad; pero...¿será todo tan fácil como se pinta? ¿O las traiciones, el amor y los Deseos Prohibidos serán un impedimento?

Opinión personal:

He de decir que está súper bien escrito, la magia detallada y redactada con peculiaridad, y que los personajes son entrañables y demuestran una evolución bien formada.

El estilo particular de Jessica me ha cautivado, pues utiliza un vocabulario culto y refinado y sus descripciones son exactas (ni muy escuetas ni muy cargadas). Para ser la primera novela que leo suya, me ha dejado bastante encantada. Los giros argumentales y el tema del tiempo, el reino yinn y demás le ha sumado muchos puntos.

La recomiendo mucho si os gusta la fantasía, los deseos y el romance. (Y si adoráis Disney también).

Personajes:

Zahra: una mujer valiente y poderosa, que muestra un empoderamiento femenino característico del feminismo, y que se sacrifica por aquellxs a lxs que ama. Me cayó bien desde el principio, a pesar de creerse un monstruo, y sus comentarios y gracias me han hecho sonreír en más de una ocasión.

Aladdín: un buen chico, intrépido, soñador y de corazón amable. Creo que es la viva imagen de una persona bondadosa y por eso no puedo estar más orgullosa de que ande con Zahra.

Cáspida: una reina fuerte y que vela por su pueblo. La he admirado por no decaer ante las presiones de los machistas y por mantenerse con la cabeza alta y defender su terreno en la guerra.

Darian: Otro imbécil al que añadir a la lista. A pesar de que me dio pena que su padre lo maltratase, eso no justifica que sea un cretino con la gente y que quiera manipular a Cáspida.

Sulifer: un tipo codicioso y sin honor que busca la ruina del resto para alzar la suya propia, porque no es más que un montón de basura y se merece el final que ha tenido.

Conclusión:

Una aventura con todos los elementos necesarios para tener una buena historia. Totalmente recomendada ;))

Nota:

9/10

Es un libro del cual he escuchado muy buenas referencias en cuanto a magia y feminismo. Creo que la idea de una genio es muy buena y el hecho de que sea un versión nueva de Aladdín transporta a los más fieles seguidores de Disney (como yo) a nuestra infancia.

De momento llevaré 100 y algo páginas y he de decir que la autora escribe y detalla de maravilla, no puedo estar más encantada con su estilo, y que la aventura me tiene muchas expectativas montadas, pues me encanta la fantasía y el romance en su justa medida.

Ya os iré contando,

pd: me fascina la portada, es lo más bonito que he visto en mucho tiempo :))

Kisses,
