Blade of Secrets
by Tricia Levenseller
I went into this book thinking it was a standalone fantasy (for some reason,) and ended the book praying and searching to see if there’s a sequel after that ending *nervous giggles*
If you’re looking for a fun and very light YA fantasy this book will be your jam. There’s witty banter, budding romances, action scenes and magic of course! I found this was the perfect kind of book I needed for the kind of long week I had and I couldn’t have appreciated it more.
I will say, this isn’t some epic fantasy full swoon worthy quotes and sweat inducing scenes BUT it was full of, what felt like, accurate representation for social anxiety. The main character Ziva, STRUGGLES constantly with her anxiety throughout this entire book but still manages to show her badass side and decides to try and save the world and I couldn’t appreciate this storyline more as someone who’s had a bit of anxiety for awhile now. For that alone can this book is worth picking up!
This book is more then it seems and has little quirks ( Arthurian vibes?) that made me really appreciate it and recommend it for anyone who needs a faster, lighter kind of YA fantasy or just needs to feel seen when it comes to anxiety! I can’t wait to read more from Tricia Levenseller!
