Recently finished Wild Sky by @zayafeli, and it was so soft and sweet!
Sometimes a family is two dads and their dragon daughter.😌

i already sent an ask to @zayafeli screeching about iron breakers but uhh it’s time for more praise i guess? bc i cry over roanna sylver’s chameleon moon & isaac marion’s warm bodies but i guess i have a third fave series now?
basically it’s very fantasy and also very gay which is 10/10 the best combination of things. it was AMAZING and i can’t believe it took me so long to fucking read it.
it’s very in-your-face gay without being one of those stories that tries too hard y’know? by which i mean while it’s very central to the story, since the two main characters get together in the end, it isn’t a story about being gay nor is it like, a big deal in the story or the worldbuilding. it’s just a thing thats accepted and i love that??? also (spoilers!) my fave character gets married in the epilogue!! so i’m very pleased!!
the writing style is pretty easy on the eyes, not too flowery or over the top bc i find that can make something difficult to read. but the simplicity doesn’t take away from the story either bc it’s just?? so easy and lovely to read?? and the plot isn’t too overly complicated either but it still has some gr9 plot twists etc etc im love!~
also the book itself has like, a little map at the beginning. it’s a super cute detail that i LOVE and i wish more books did that. seriously, it’s great. there’s also a list of characters so if you’re like me and feel the need to keep track of every minor character, it’s perfect

i probably shouldn’t be using my work’s printer and laminator to make the bookmark and print the gorgeous colour page by @zayafeli but you could also argue you shouldn’t leave me alone in the office with complete access to these particularly useful pieces of equipment so….
#I just seemed a waste to print the bookmark and NOT laminate it for complete indestructabilty#also may or may not have taken that a4 folder to transport the colour page home but eh I’ll give it back Tuesday#thank you Zaya feli for these lovely bonuses they are so nice!!!!#the icefjord saga#zaya feli

Just a quick reminder that I do post a little more often over on my Twitter than I do here!
#all important updates still go here of course#I just tend to tweet about book-related things that doesn't necessarily justify an entire tumblr post#as well as little personal things and book fanart

Book: The Icefjord Saga by Zaya Feli
Characters depicted: Karel. Pronouns: he/him
Book’s LGBT+ rep: asexual, gay, lesbian
Artist note: Author @zayafeli made this amazing lineart of her ace emo viking prince, and allowed me to color him! She said this is post book when he’s in his late 20s whereas in the book he’s 17. He’s my favorite character in The Icefjord Saga (but ace characters usually are my faves, and he’s so well done).

The first book in the Icefjord series by @zayafeli mentioned an instrument called a nyckelharpa, which piqued my interest. I looked it up on YouTube, and given that the book has roots in Norse mythology, the instrument sounds just as interesting and haunting as I thought it would. This is Myrkur Øksemorder singing Två Konungabarn (in Swedish).

Red books feel extra festive in December! I’m really looking forward to starting The White Road soon. I absolutely adore this cover (and the companion cover of Shadows Return with the Seregil portrait). Look at Alec! Look how adorable he is! (Swipe for a close-up.)💗 • • • ❓Who are some of your favorite fan artists? Some of my favs on instagram are @zayafeli (she does a lot of OCs but also Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue, Captive Prince, The Rifter, and other good stuff) @yumenouveau (she does amazing Wolfstar drawings!) @upthehillart (beautiful HP art - I’m obsessed with her Sirius) and @gibslythe.art (super cute Raven Cycle art, especially her Pynch stuff 😍). Honestly there are too many to name. I adore fan art. Give me your favs! 🎨 • • • #nightrunner #thewhiteroad #lynnflewelling #thealchemywars #captiveprince #sixofcrows #halfbad #bookstack #bookspines #fantasy #scifi #speculativefiction #sciencefiction #nonfiction #queerfiction #lgbtfiction #book #bookstagram #bookish #bibliophile #booklover #booknerd #booklove #igreads #bookphotography #ilovereading #bookreader #photooftheday #flatlay https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq0Ei5anyJq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13pb2sc8h25mv
