Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

Hands down, favorite book of 2018. So glad I picked it up…I highly recommend it!!

So the biggest question surrounding this book–and I know that I am not the only person asking this, because friends in the bookish community have asked me this, and I have seen this discussion multiple times–is: is it worth the hype? My opinion, of course, is ABSOLUTELY! But of course, everyone really must choose for themselves. All hype aside, though, this book grabbed me from the start and had me spellbound all the way through. I loved all of the characters, I loved the magic system, I loved the writing, I loved….EVERYTHING!!! And yes, I almost let hype stop me from reading this but I’m so glad I didn’t! This book is SO worth reading. Plus, Tomi Adeyemi is everything. I love following her on social media. Her soul is in this book, you can just tell. Its just so beautiful. So beautiful.

In case you don’t know much about the book yet, here is a link to the Goodreads summary. I highly, highly, highly recommend you get on reading this one. My mom even read this one and enjoyed it. Hey, Jimmy Fallon recommends it! Ha! So give it a shot (or another shot?) and enjoy!
