Which Archeron Sister Fanart From ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?

The Archeron sisters have been interesting to follow the more Feyre interacts with them as a Fae. Nesta and Elain are vastly different, but they agree that remaining together is the best decision.

The sisters are all described beautifully in the book and the artistry in the fanart is nothing short of gorgeous.

Maude’s Book Club Questions For ‘Divine Rivals’ by Rebecca Ross

We love having discussions at MBC! Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross stole our hearts in February. For those who love to write and those who enjoy reading historical fiction, this fantasy romance is the perfect mixture for all readers.

Maude’s Book Club became engaged with the story between Iris and Kitt because of the development of their relationship. It is enemies-to-lovers and its beautifully written passages explore one’s true self through anonymity and vulnerability.

Book Review: ‘A Court of Mist and Fury’ by Sarah J. Maas

Many had fallen in love with the first book (like myself) and decided to continue the series. Since it was my first time reading a Maas series, I felt it was only right to continue to write reviews for the series. Right after I finished Divine Rivals in February, I picked up A Court of Mist and Fury. It is a lengthy book and I was intimidated, but Maas expertly builds a sequel that is better than the first.

Book Review: ‘Divine Rivals’ by Rebecca Ross

If you’re a fan of historical fiction and Romantasy, Divine Rivals is the perfect mixture of both. Rebecca Ross crafts a young adult novel filled with yearning and stolen words on a page between a fantastical typewriter. Not only is it an intimate love story between Iris Winnow and Roman Kitt, but there’s a war among the gods, Dacre and Enva.

If You Like ‘Divine Rivals’ Add These To Your TBR

February is dedicated to all lovers out there, and we have chosen Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross for our book of the month! After the buzz of Fourth Wing, Rebecca Ross was next in line with her young adult romance that had #BookTok all over it. Whether you read Fourth Wing or Divine Rivals first, they are great follow-ups.

The difference with Divine Rivals is that it has a more sentimental story and it is rich in magic. Some creatures and gods live in this world with Iris Winnow, but the human story of grief and perseverance connects readers to this character. If you’re a yearner and a fan of secret letters, this book will be for you.

If you’re not a fan of historical fiction, Divine Rivals will pave the way for a fusion of fantasy and mythological history.
