Young Adult The shadowglass book
And there are even amazing action sequences than the previous books I continued to be impressed but the last few chapters really gutted me but it was also so perfectly tied up There were also enough hints throughout the books which pointed towards the ancient legends of these kingdoms as the knowledge that Tea is seeking and her quest leaves us with many questions to ponder How far will people go to alter historical accounts to suit their greed Do we ever really know the truth about our heroes and legends or is everything just embellishment and manipulation to ensure those in power are always able to control the populace Are we always sure of the intentions of those we seek to follow and believe in We get many answers but some of them are best left unanswered so that they make us think There is also a lot of destruction that happens in this book but again we are left to think about what s the line between good and evil.

And we see her exploring of her identity in this book and finally deciding on what pronouns she wants to use I thought the author did a marvelous job of writing about Likh s transition through the trilogy and the tremendous amount of unconditional support that she gets from all her friends is really very heartwarming The development of her romance with Khalad was also a joy to read and they had some very cute and hilarious scenes together We don t get to see of Zoya and Shadi s romance here but they still are going strong and it s always nice to see two happy young women in love The other couple that rivals Tea and Kalen in their devotion to each other are Fox and Inessa.

The Shadowglass childrensalon 1 The Bone Witch 2 The Heart Forger There are worse things than black heartsglass Tea Silver is just as capable of hate Most of you know this The Bone Witch trilogy is a series I hold very close to my heart but I truly have been looking at this word document for the last twenty minutes completely unable to start this review I m not ready to say goodbye and I m equal parts in denial that it s over but in awe of how perfect Rin Chupeco closed this series out I am so thankful for these books and I will truly carry them with me forever. The Shadowglass ebooks free The Shadow Glass is the concluding book in an ownvoices Asian inspired fantasy series that stars a bone witch named Tea who has the power to resurrect and control things which she finds out in The Bone Witch when she accidentally resurrects her brother at his funeral From there Tea and her newly risen brother Fox go on a journey for Tea to learn about her asha powers but they quickly feel and realize the expectations that all eight kingdoms are going to put on her In this world all the people wear heartsglass around their necks Your heartsglass will change colors depending on what you re feeling but will overall stay mostly the same color Yet silver means you draw runes and they are so very important and are so very sought after Other ashas control elements fire earth water and wind But Tea is a dark asha who can control death Bone witches are not very respected in this world even though their powers hold the most important job in this world defeating Daeva which are different demons who dwell in this world who are resurrected every so often The darkness was inside me I think long before I raised my brother from the dead My silver heartsglass merely gave it a mouth made the darkness realize that it too can hunger This story is told in my favorite format ever which is half of it being told in present day from a bard where you see the ramifications of everything that has happened in the past where Tea appears to be the villain but the other half is the past from Tea s perspective where we get to slowly see the events unfold to bring us up to date with current day Two timelines brilliantly woven together to give us the most epic finale of all time and truly is a masterpiece I feel like I can t say that much of a synopsis because this is the last book in a trilogy but watching Tea grow from this girl who was so unsure of her future and her new powers to this woman who learned to love not only others but also herself and this power that felt so uncontrollable and it was an honor to read truly And seeing this new journey that Tea has to take for herself in The Shadow Glass was completely enthralling and such a treat to read I knew that shadowglass spell I had committed it to memory nearly two years ago and it was now a mantra buried so deep within my psyche that nothing could pull it loose I had pored over those words for so long that sometimes they came easier to me than my own name But I couldn t write up this review and not talk about the romance and how it completely still leaves me weak in the knees I would completely lay my life on the line for Tea and Kalen and they are honestly everything Also I am just such a sucker for the protector bodyguard personal warrior element in romances and I seriously will never stop swooning over them Truly the stuff dream OTPs are made of I do want to take a minute and talk about the sexual and gender representation in this book There is a side f f romance which you don t get to see that much of in this installment but I still love them with the sum of my being But what I really want to talk about is Likh and her transition In all three books we see Likh discovering how fluid gender can be yet also testing out the waters of new things because of the gender roles and power imbalances people place on so many things in the societies all these characters explore but in this book she decides her pronouns and after that everyone instantly respects her pronouns and her transition and it s truly beyond words beautiful Okay so I feel like I should write up a little personal paragraph even though I don t want to take away anything from this masterpiece of a trilogy Rin Chupeco pulls from many Asian inspirations but as a biracial Filipino it just means the world to me to see a Filipino author not only writing books that are completely in my wheelhouse but to really have it reflect so much of my culture Then I also get to see an Asian girl and her Asian brother be best friends and willing to sacrifice anything for one another and if you ve followed my reviews for a while you will know my brother is my best friend in the entire world and I would sacrifice anything for him and I m just weak and soft and it really means so much to me But lastly we really get to see Tea living during the good mental health days and living during some really terrible mental health days Mental health and Tea s guilt grief and trauma is never shied away from in this story and to even see this in an Asian inspired fantasy story is enough for me to build a shrine to Rin right this instant I will save the kingdoms and I will save you in the process and maybe I will save the bits and pieces of myself that need rescuing too And I don t have an eloquent way to say it this ending broke me I read the last twenty percent of this book with tears streaming down my face So much perfection Overall this really is the book of my heart and Tea is the character of my soul and Rin Chupeco truly wrote a love letter for every girl out there who wants to change the broken world that people think is the default If you haven t started this series yet please give it a try I truly love it with my whole heart and soul and I truly think it is so very worth your time Blog Instagram Twitter Tumblr Youtube TwitchContent and trigger warnings for

The Shadowglass childrensmn The theme for this book is love everything started because of Tea s love for her brother Then she made friends and fell in love Everything she did is because of her love ones I m glad not all of them actually believed she was guilty of what she was accused of even though most of them did. The Shadowglass kindle cloud This book is an Asian inspired fantasy the world building is on point perfect depictions The fight scenes here were awesome The magic is well depicted I love the way the author described it This book is the best depiction of necromancer that I ve ever read To be perfect without suffering means no change If you know neither hurt nor hardship then you will not know the strength they can summon within a person What is life s meaning if you cannot distinguish between happiness and sorrow The Bone Witch series is the first book that I actually enjoyed the combination of present and past in the story telling The story is told from two characters point of view Tea in the past explaining what happened and The Bard in the present Normally in other books I dislike this method but the one in this book was great. The Shadowglass kindle app My favourite character in this book is Kalen I know Tea is awesome and all but he is the best He stood by her when everyone including her brother abandoned her That is the kind of relationship I want Even Tea herself thought herself guilty but he didn t because he not only love her but knows and trust her Kalen is dedicated and loyal I admire that about him from the beginning when he was Kance s bodyguard You can t honor the past if you don t know what that past is I would much rather know the truth than live in ignorant bliss even if it destroys all I ve come to believe Tradition isn t always honorable If it was then you d have been an asha for years without opposition Tea is my second favourite character I know I can t do what she did She did everything to save people that accused her of crimes she didn t commit Even when her family and most of her friends abandoned and discredit her account of events she still love and did everything she could to save them. The Shadowglass epub file Khalad and Likh are also her believers I love these two characters so much I was disappointed in Fox how could he after everything they went through he thought her capable of that He redeemed himself at last but it took him forever to believe her Inessa his girlfriend though she has ulterior motives believed that Tea should be given the benefit of the doubt 9781492660606 I am sorry about many things but I am not sorry about this I ve been trying to write this review for a few minutes now but I still can t convey the words to describe this third and final book I really can t understand how this trilogy is so underrated because I truly believe this is one of the best YA fantasy stories out there Rin Chupeco has created a powerful story with an intricate world building complex siblings relationships a beautiful and heartbreaking romance and an outstanding cast of characters. The Shadowglass ebook The Tea we meet in The Shadowglass is far away from the 12 year old Dark asha who resurrected her brother from the dead by accident in The Bone Witch We finally get to see the final circumstances that changed Tea s heartglass from silver to black as the past timeline starts only a few months before the beginning of the first book We discover everything that happened in those months Tea s struggles with the dark magic the betrayals the hope the despair. Fantasy shadow king We also get to explore other kingdoms as Istera the Yadosha City States and Drycht Further the rest of the daevas finally make an appearance in the past timeline And there are a couple of interesting plot twists I actually guessed who the traitor was and the identity of certain Faceless at some point around the middle of the book but I didn t connect all the dots until the author showed her hand. Fantasy shadow king Tea s character development is just amazing throughout the entire trilogy and I m still trying to wrap my mind around everything that happened to her since The Bone Witch And I completely love her dynamic with all the characters especially with Fox Khaled Kalen Likh and Zoya although the latter appears much less in The Shadowglass than in The Bone Witch and The Heart Forger Shadi Mykaela and Inessa also have less presence and I missed scenes with them. Book the shadow box Once again the romance gave me all the feels And although I ve been preparing myself for certain scene since the first book I couldn t help but shed a couple of tears when the time came Those two have such a beautiful and heartbreaking story that just thinking about it makes me want to re read their story all over again And again I loved all the romance stories between the side characters Zoya and Shadi are probably my favourite f f ship ever and I need a story about those two than anything in this life Other aspect I adored about this book is Likh s journey accepting her identity as a woman and the consequent change of pronouns And it made me beyond happy how the rest of the characters accept and respect Likh s transition with total normality as it should be. Book the shadows Overall I loved The Shadowglass Rin Chupeco has written a powerful and emotional final instalment to this ownvoices Asian inspired fantasy trilogy Those two last pages Those are just pure perfection I would lie if I said that the final chapter didn t make me tear up and I couldn t have asked for a perfect and fitting ending I ll find you again I know it What s one impossibility when it s you P. The Shadowglass ebook S English isn t my native language so I apologise if you see any mistakes 9781492660606 I am struggling to write this review with tears in my eyes because I can t believe this amazing trilogy is already over and I can t experience it for the first time ever again I m so happy and sad to have been a part of this reading journey and I have not felt this emotional and satisfied with a series conclusion in a long while I have a lot to say so there will probably be a lot of spoilers for the previous two books but I will try to be as vague as possible for this one so proceed with caution I already knew Rin s writing was spectacular but this book took it to a whole new level While all of the kingdoms are mentioned throughout the books I never expected to get the opportunity to travel to all of them but the author ensures we do and this makes for a great journey and an awesome job at expansive world building each kingdom unique in its own way The writing in this book is so layered each chapter uncovering some manipulation or treachery the anticipation only building up because of the way the two timelines are alternately written and surprising us every step of the way There are liars and traitors in the guise of elders and friends and while I had some doubts I never could guess their identities confidently That s why the reveals had a very high impact The plot also moves much faster in this book because there is a lot riding on Tea s shoulders how much of the havoc that Tea wreaks upon the kingdoms justified because she was compelled to do so both to protect the truly innocent and also because she doesn t want her dearest ones to die Whatever happens in this story it all comes back to love sibling romantic familial platonic and everything in between love compels every action sometimes true and sometimes misguided but ultimately it s love that triumphs and I couldn t be happier with the way everything wrapped up. The shadowglass rin chupeco Call her a hero or antihero Tea is one of the most compelling and complicated main characters I have read in quite a long time and I m deeply in love with her She is consumed by guilt and trauma is lied to and betrayed and blamed by her closest ones but she still remains steadfast in her goals and I really admired her for it And whatever she does she really is full of love ready to sacrifice all of herself for the sake of her dear ones And seeing her with Kalen was a blessing to read He is the epitome of loyalty and courage always standing with her and protecting her and their love for each other made my heart weep with joy It s definitely a romance for the ages and I just wanted and scenes with them together We see all the other characters together in this book and that was amazing to read The relationships that Tea has with each of them precious in its own right and it was very interesting to see how Mykkie Zoya Khalad Kance Likh and everyone else handled her actions and justifications throughout the story The Bard is another fascinating character who is unsure about what to make of Tea but is loyal to his task of being a storyteller and brave enough to follow her on her perilous journeys His actual truth was probably the only one I guess while everything else was quite suspenseful and I had to wait to uncover it all I also especially like Tea s friendship with Khalad and Likh because they are always supportive of her even when she is wrongfully accused Likh has been one of my favorite side characters since the beginning her innate strength in pursuing what she truly wants in life despite lots of opposition being very commendable She has always fought for her right to be true to herself stubborn and hotheaded but deeply in love who fight for their right to be together despite all odds The author really did a tremendous job making us care for every single character and their romances giving each of them a meaningful arc and I tip my hat off to her. Fantasy shadow magic What can I say that I haven t already said in my reviews of the previous books of this amazing trilogy This is the kind of fantasy I love characters I fall deeply in love with expansive world building with its very own mythology that I can picture in my head dark and deadly magic system and elaborate action sequences that left me gasping beautifully written swoon worthy romances and ultimately an ending that made me weep but also left me tremendously satisfied and glad to have read an amazing series What could I have asked for If you are a lover of YA fantasy and haven t read this trilogy yet what are you waiting for 9781492660606 This ended the series well It started with a driving pace much like the last book but slowly because a denouement which was necessary but predictable There were some revelations that provided plot twist material one of which was a highly interesting reveal while the other was a sort of interesting reveal It was clear the author had a purpose for this book worked out in advance and maybe I should ve felt emotionally compelled than I did but as the flash forwards merged into one with the current story I felt the suspense fade. Fantasy shadow assassin The main characters make choices that matter to them and that establish the climax and epilogue in a professional manner This book was well plotted and clearly tried to sum up the romantic elements in a neat bundle The author was successful I just didn t feel it was particularly moving as it happened It was like an okay I suppose that makes sense reaction. Fantasy shadow names Three stars 9781492660606 Reread in 2021 via audiobook ARC review below but time to see if I m going to get hurt the second time around I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review My body heart and soul were not ready for the final book I procrastinated reading The Shadow Glass because this is the end The End THE END. Pdf shadow remover It s a week after finishing the last book in The Bone Witch trilogy and mere hours before this review is going live and I m sitting here going OH MY GOD What are words even Can I come back when my tears are refreshed and ready to cry internally again because I can t actually cry when reading for some reason Will my review even give justice I adore the characters SO MUCH Back when I first read The Bone Witch I had so much difficulty getting through the first book because it s filled with descriptions and world building which made the book go by slowly However I loved the concept and the characters so I sucked it up and continued But when I read The Heart Forger last year I got completely invested in the characters Chupeco created and fell in love with all of them. Book the shadows Tea Kalen Fox Inessa Likh Khalad these are only a few of the characters that make up the trilogy I adore the entire cast Chupeco introduces to us from the first book and brought over through the rest of the trilogy as well I love their dynamics with each other the relationships they ve developed and their interactions In particular I truly appreciated how everyone accepted Likh s transition as she discovered about herself and who she truly is I also enjoyed reading their sassy and snarky remarks as Tea continues on her journey to get a shadow glass in order to save the one she loves even if it will potentially kill her Everything comes together in The Shadow Glass I had so many questions after reading The Heart Forger Mainly will my precious beans survive I am so happy Chupeco answers all of those questions in The Shadow Glass Much like the second book s format the story is told in two timelines eventually coming together at the end One timeline is in the Bard s perspective when Tea is older while the other is Tea telling her past This format can get confusing and overwhelming with so much going on but it is easily rectified by the end. Book the shadows Side Note I read The Shadow Glass at midnight and half of my brain is asleep so um that probably explains me being confused and overwhelmed Sleepy Sophia does not equate to understanding Sophia What a beautiful ending I am still a bit speechless but The Shadow Glass is simply beautiful and marvelous I even wrote a coherent review I m grateful for getting to know each of the characters and reading their journey although I ll miss them greatly I encourage everyone to give The Bone Witch trilogy a try the slow beginning and all the information are well worth it.
