View full thread✨ Legendborn by Tracy Deonn You should’ve read this book already…But if you haven’t, read this if you want an engaging YA fantasy with a well thought out magic system and characters that take you through all the emotions. Starting Bloodmarked soon, and I’m so excited to get back into this world.

- Did I finish The Death of Vivek Oji…or did it finish me? #booksky
- Legendborn is so good!! I just got to part 3 of book and I’m kicking myself for not starting sooner #booksky #blackbooksky
- This novella has stuck with me since finishing. It tackles grief and overcoming the loss of community from the lens of a trans woman in a tender way. Good read for people that like character-driven & emotional stories. Check content warnings since it deals with difficult subjects #booksky
