4.5/5 stars

The lush and wondrous setting literally springs to life off the pages!! The main character, Solena had just been named 'healer' from her Granpeer, the Prophet, who is slowly dying. Solena must venture off to forbidden lands, which are controlled by soldiers, to find a specific herb to heal her dying grandpeer

The Language of Souls is a short but captivating story. It's packed with romance, and action. I absolutely loved this book! I couldn't put it down. It was original, never predictable, and yet utterly satisfying. I loved the characters, they were well thought out and the imaginative world the author has created. My only complaint, it was WAY too short. I would have loved to read more! I highly recommend it and I can't wait to read more from this author!

Happy Reading!

Aire is about Annalisia, a Princess who has a special gift. When someone kidnaps Annalisia's servant, she disguises herself as "Anna", she leaves the palace, determined to find her servant and along the way she finds romance!

I absolutely LOVED this book, I couldn't put it down! It was well written, the characters were well thought out, the Italian setting is beautiful, the pacing is perfect, and the use of Italian words throughout the novel was a nice addition, making in more real. Annalisia is a heroine, she's courageous and determined.

Aire is an entertaining, romantic, thrilling and magical fantasy! I recommend it and I can't wait to read more from this author!!

Happy Reading!

It was ok. A bit telly in places, and I got annoyed a couple times in the last quarter or so of the book when characters did or said something that struck me as stupid. Example: when Mira insists that her repentant kidnapper be kept alive because she just has to find out what happened to his kind, deaf, simple brother who helped her, *instead of* so that they can find out more about the mastermind villain behind her kidnapping as well as that of the princesses!!! :huge aggravated sigh

But I liked the setting and the sprinkling of Italianate words throughout for flavor.… (plus d'informations)
