Review previously placed on my blog:

I'm currently reading Illuminations by T. Kingfisher. I'm reading the ebook. Reading this for the T. Kingfisher readalong I'm doing on Discord. This is a middle grade fantasy book.

Loving this so far! I thought this was young adult, so I did need some time to get into it. The main character is pretty naive, so therefore I was thrown off a bit. But now that I understand that it is actually a middle grade book, I enjoy it a lot! Really love the concept and that painting is such a big part of the book. The magic is super cool and original. Super fun read so far.

In the end this one wasn't my favorite. The story felt a bit too repetitive for me and not very suspenceful. I did love the characters a lot, therefore this rating.
