"May the best Magician win."
Happy New Year!
2021 just rolled in and I started the year with a bang by reading Janella Angeles’ debut and the first book of Kingdom of Cards Duology - Where Dreams Descend! (I love duologies! I need more of it in my life tbh.)
I mean, a Phantom of the Opera-esque story written by a Filipina author?! My PH Phan heart rejoices! When I saw that gorgeous cover though, it’s game over for me. I must read this.
I'm so late to the party but no matter, because Where Dreams Descend definitely is a spectacular way to kickstart the year! I tried so hard to savor this book and make it last but I ended up finishing it way too quickly.
I already had a live-tweet reading thread on Twitter (see it here) but with the amount of feelings I have, here’s more of my in-depth thoughts on this riveting debut!
