Orbit Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries: the cosy and heart-warming Sunday Times Bestseller

I loved this book! Great writing, character development and world building. It’s not spicy and it didn’t need to be. There is enough intrigue, mystery and plot to carry it. Highly recommend!This author needs to write more books and quickly please :)

Well written, very readable, story grips you from the start and draws you in right away. I am so enamored of the main character Emily, and all her assorted acquaintances along the journey. Love the "scientific" footnotes, love the unique feel of the hardcover panels and the cover artwork. A definite keeper for my personal library. Also appreciate that it is written by a fellow Canadian.

The book is written in journal or diary form. Every chapter is a date entry. The book started slowly. But it was getting more interesting as the story continued. Many things started happening. The author has given some additional information on some subjects at the end of some pages. The book is very descriptive. There are little dialogues in it. There are some folktales in the story. I loved those tales. I love the characters. Emily is not good at making friends. It's not that she doesn't try. She tries, but she can't. Wendell is the opposite of Emily. He really gets along with people quickly. There is very little romance in the book. I loved the small moment Emily and Wandell shared in the book. I loved that the author explored the dark side of the faerie world and its effects on the mortal world. I enjoyed the vibe that the book gave me. . The book took me to a different world, and I loved that world. I enjoyed the visual I was imagining. Mountain, forest, snow, winter, cottage, faerie, etc. This book is a great winter read.

I absolutely loved this book. The whole concept of a journal with little footnotes and faeries as an entire field of science made this book an entertaining read. In addition, I just loved the mood that was set throughout the entire story: dark and mysterious, very eerie and even gory in some parts but then also heartwarming, cozy and really funny in other parts. The story contained profound emotion and dramatic developments but also lighthearted parts. There was a great amount of witty banter and conversations filled with sassy comments and the characters were each very enjoyable. Emily was flawed but that made her all the more real and unique, she was smart and often very relatable. Wendell had his flaws as well but they, too, gave him a strong voice of his own and both of their flaws created a special sort of harmony. I also enjoyed reading about Thora, Poe, and Shadow whenever they crossed the pages - they were side characters that I immediately took to my heart.All in all, I can say that I can't wait for the second book and that I can totally recommend this read.

Depois de Victory City de Rushdie, este é o segundo melhor livro que li em 2023
