Summary from Goodreads:

If you could change your story, would you?

Jane has lived a mostly ordinary life, raised by her recently deceased aunt Magnolia, whom she counted on to turn life into an adventure. Without Aunt Magnolia, Jane is directionless. Then an old acquaintance, the glamorous and capricious Kiran Thrash, blows back into Jane’s life and invites her to a gala at the Thrashes’ extravagant island mansion called Tu Reviens. Jane remembers her aunt telling her: “If anyone ever invites you to Tu Reviens, promise me that you’ll go.”

What Jane doesn’t know is that at Tu Reviens her story will change; the house will offer her five choices that could ultimately determine the course of her untethered life. But every choice comes with a price. She might fall in love, she might lose her life, she might come face-to-face with herself. At Tu Reviens, anything is possible.

Review (93 words):

Okay so this was one book that boggled my mind until I got what the heck was going on. As a fan of Cashore's writing, this book was easy to get into, and each section was just so imaginative and interesting. Personally, I like magical realism in contemporary literature, so this book was right up my alley! Every character and crazy storyline was wonderful and fully 3D, making this an exciting and fresh read! If this is your first intro to Cashore, by all means this is a perfect one to pick up!

Rating: 4.5/5 stars

That's all for today! See you soon again!

My Favourite Read of 2020

In my year long break from blogging, I certainly spent a whole lot of time searching for THE BOOK. I'm sure you all know what I mean. I mean the book that literally makes you laugh out loud, and tear up, the book that will not leave your mind no matter how many books you read afterwards. And friends, I think I have found it (at least for the time being). Keep in mind that I am calling this post my best READ of 2020, not BOOK, because I am aware that this book was published in 2019. What can I say, I am a little late to the party of critical acclaim that this book seemed to have garnered!
