What are you reading this week?

It’s been a while between last, now, next posts (mostly because this mood reader is skittish about publicly declaring “I shall read that next!” when there’s a 94% chance I will absolutely not read that next). But what the hey – let’s give it another try!

✨

📘 LAST, Or: The Wheel Wills What Wheels Will
THE EYE OF THE WORLD
If I was reading Robert Jordan’s paperback I would have DNFed, but Rosamund Pike carried the audiobook with such aplomb that I stayed the course

📖 NOW, Or: Mother, I Crave Academia
FRANKENSTEIN
A reread of the one and only Mary Shelley 🙌
CHRISTABEL
Coleridge’s Gothic dread brings me such joy and I can’t believe I haven’t read this one before
A ROOM OF ONE’S OWN
Even if Virginia Woolf’s novels aren’t your vibe (they aren’t mine - sorry, Virginia) her essays are 😙🤌 chef’s kiss

📚 NEXT, Or: Little Pot of Horrors: the Illuminated Text?
ISABELLA NAGG AND THE POT OF BASIL
Oliver Darkshire’s tweets from the Henry Sotheran bookshop are full of dry, British, bookish humour, so I am VERY excited that his fantasy debut has arrived at the local library!

✨

Tagging a few book buds to share their Last, Now, Next too, but no pressure!

Welcome to my stop on the Skysong book tour!! This book is absolutely stunning and I cannot wait to get into it after I finish my final (ever!!!) uni assessments!! I took a little peek and I’m already hooked!

Skysong is a beautiful lyrical retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Nightingale about what some will do for power…and what others will do for love.
Oriane is the skylark, and the sun only rises if she wills it.

Every morning, she transforms from woman to bird, calling the dawn with her song. Seclusion has kept her safe her whole life – but it has also left her lonely, and craving freedom. When Oriane finally succumbs to the lure of the wild unknown, she is discovered in the gardens of the royal palace, where she is taken in by the king and treated like a goddess – and a prisoner.

Embroiled in a battle of faith and politics, Oriane yearns to return to her safe, simple life. A growing danger surrounds the palace, and the skylark and her gift are at its centre. But within the whispers, Oriane learns something she never expected: she may not be as alone as she thought. There may be another like her.

The nightingale.

Do you like fairytale retellings? I’m fascinated by fairytales and how they get passed down through generations, how they endure in so many different forms through different cultures. Skysong by C A Wright is a retelling of The Nightingale by Hans Christian Andersen, and it sounds completely captivating. I loved Hans Christian Andersen’s stories growing up and I’m so keen to read this one. Plus just look at that cover 😍

Synopsis is below:

🌸🌸
A beautiful lyrical retelling of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Nightingale about what some will do for power…and what others will do for love.

Oriane is the skylark, and the sun only rises if she wills it.

Every morning, she transforms from woman to bird, calling the dawn with her song. Seclusion has kept her safe her whole life – but it has also left her lonely, and craving freedom. When Oriane finally succumbs to the lure of the wild unknown, she is discovered in the gardens of the royal palace, where she is taken in by the king and treated like a goddess – and a prisoner.

Embroiled in a battle of faith and politics, Oriane yearns to return to her safe, simple life. A growing danger surrounds the palace, and the skylark and her gift are at its centre. But within the whispers, Oriane learns something she never expected: she may not be as alone as she thought. There may be another like her.

The nightingale.

When does a book sing to you?
🪶
“Skysong” is the retelling you didn’t know you needed!
@cawrightbooks perfectly encapsulates the darkside to some of our favourite fairytales.
🪶
There is beauty to the humanity of these tales, and there is equal darkness and grief.
🪶
“Oriane is a skylark, and the sun only rises if she wills it.

Every morning she transforms from woman to bird, calling the dawn with her song”

But like everything beautiful in the world, there are those who appreciate it, and those that will seek to own it.

This beautiful retelling of Hans Christian Anderson’s “The Nightingale” will have you cozied up reading into the wee hours of the morning.

And leaving you with hope that we are not always as alone as we can feel.

Thank you so much to @panterapress for letting me join in on this beautiful book tour and letting me read this story that has found its way into my heart as one of my favourite books!

Be sure to be following the beautiful bookstagrammers on this tour, singing the praises for this book that is a must-read for anyone who loves fairytales, magic and a song of hope.

💜Welcome to my tour stop for Skysong by C.A. Wright! 💜

Thank you to @cawrightbooks and @panterapress for including me on the tour.
✾
🤎 REVIEW: 🤎
Skysong is a retelling of The Nightingale, and aside from having one of the most beautiful covers, it also has beautiful writing. C.A. Wright writes with a lyrical tone, providing enough nods to the original Hans Christian story to be noticable, but completely making the retelling her own.

The separation of the book into different parts kept the story moving along nicely, and I loved the exploration of light and dark throughout the story. The world is easy to get immersed in and the relationship between the characters was lovely. This is a gorgeous fantasy, highly recommend it for lovers of retellings, stories of friendships and love, and whimsical writing.
