Ghosts Of The Shadow Market by Cassandra Clare

"I really enjoyed Ghosts of the Shadow Market by Cassandra Clare. While it was a huge book, these short stories were set around one of my favourite characters from her Shadowhunter world. It was really neat to be able to read about his life after we left him at the end of a prior series. Clare also managed to set a few things up for future books, too." - Anjali

Always And Forever Lara Jean by Jenny Han

"Always and Forever, Lara Jean was really good! A great ending to a great series, and I would say better than the second book though it was a little predictable. Totally worth reading the entire series if you’ve already done To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before cuz of the hype!" - Sophie

A Darker Shade Of Magic by V E Schwab

"When I started reading A Darker Shade Of Magic I was a little disappointed that I didn't feel instantly invested in the story as I know it's very popular with other members of Team BB, however I definitely enjoyed it more as I read on thanks to Schwab's writing style. YA Fantasy isn't my usual go-to genre but I'm glad I picked up this book for something a little different." - Erin
