BEST YA FANTASY BOOKS TO READ

 If you haven’t gathered from my first post, I will repeat it again: I LOVE FANTASY.  It’s the only genre I can see myself reading on a bad day because it gives me the courage to face the world again. However, there are a lot of YA Fantasy books in the market and distinguishing the good ones from the bad ones might be difficult especially if you are new. But if you are having troubles in picking a book, do not fret! I got it covered! Here’s a list of my top five YA Fantasy novels.

1) Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare

God, this book made my day. Heck, it restored my faith in humanity. I cannot express how much I loved this book.

Buy Clockwork Angel here.

2) The Young Elites by Marie Lu.

Where was this book all my life? I simply love it when the character aren’t the “good ones” but the “bad ones”. Marie Lu, in all honesty, is a damn good writer.

Buy Young Elites here.

3) An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

Have you ever experienced your heart racing with thrill, with anticipation? If you haven’t, you should definitely pick this book up because it will make you feel just that.

Buy An Ember in the Ashes here.

4) Cinder by Merissa Meyer

I really haven’t got a clue on how to write my feelings down for this book. It is a Cinderella retelling, but it is one that you won’t read anywhere.

Buy Cinder here.

5) Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo

I almost gave up on this book because the first few chapters were really confusing. But I didn’t and I am glad. There are a very few authors who can make me genuinely cry happy tears and Burgado is one of them.

Buy Six of Crows here.

Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

Last night, I dreamt I went to Manderley again… This famous line is of the book Rebecca- a beautifully spun romantic suspense that makes you dive right into the lovely, yet haunting, world of Manderley and its dead inhabitant- Rebecca. This book starts of with a dream that the narrator has about Manderley- her husband’s previous estate. Du Maurier describes Manderley in great detail- so much so that it feels real. This story is about a nameless young woman- our narrator- who marries Maxim de Winter, and subsequently becomes the mistress of Manderley. However, our narrator is young and is tortured by shyness and insecurity that is born of her own mind.   I found that this book focuses a lot on the first Mrs. de Winter- Rebecca- who haunts our narrator from the grave. Everywhere the second Mrs. de Winter looks, she finds the remnants of Rebecca. Our heroine paints an unrealistic image of Rebecca in her head- who was the perfect, beautiful wife and mistress of Manderley. "Reb...

How to write a novel?

Most novels, to my knowledge, are no less than 60,000 words. A daunting number, isn’t it? But there are many authors who write excellent novels of this length (if not more) and publish it in the market. The chief reason for their success is their determination, and of course, their hard work. While these two key factors play an important role, there are also a variety of tips and tricks that you might want to know while writing a novel. In this post, I will be sharing some of them. 1) Get an idea Yes, I know. This is the most obvious first step while writing basically anything. However, getting an idea isn’t that obvious or easy. In fact, I think it is harder than typing some sixty-thousand words. If you have an idea, you can proceed to the next step. But if you don’t, I have tips that can get you some: A) Observe: Creativity unlocks with observation. Look around you. Maybe you might find people you have some weird life experiences to share with you. Maybe your aunt might tel...

But at the same time, you love the thrill, the chase. You don’t want it to end. Since mystery is such a popular genre, I couldn’t resist posting my favorite books in this genre. And trust me when I say this I have so many favorites that I could not simply decide what my top-five were.
