GUEST POST: The Sin Eater's Daughter by Melinda Salisbury

Hello, I’m Steph - a self-confessed Sin Eater’s Daughter superfan. I can’t recommend books without recommending these. If you haven’t read them, here’s 5 reasons why you should:

• The characters – complex, endearing, fearless
• The lands – ruthless, unforgiving, beautiful
• The villains – chilling, dark, compelling
• The covers – striking,  haunting, mesmerising
• The stories – like diving into an old fairytale, mixed with new fairytales; heart-breaking, devastating, incredible

The Sin Eater’s Daughter introduces you to imprisoned Twylla: scared and feared.
The Sleeping Prince brings you Errin; fearless and loving.
The Scarecrow Queen depicts character journeys and destinies reached.

They’re all beautiful stories woven incredibly well.

--- Thank you to Steph at A Little But A Lot for this wonderful guest post. ---

My Week In Books (6th May)

I have a confession to make: I broke my book buying ban after three and a half weeks. Let's see why…

I bought Countless by Karen Gregory and The Opposite of You by Lou Morgan. I just had to though. They're so pretty! Steph also bought Ink by Alice Broadway for me when I mentioned I hadn't read it. Thank you Steph!

I read Between the Lies by Cathy Macphail, and I'm about halfway through The Fallen Children by David Owen.

Finally, I bought The Heart Collector by Melinda Salisbury, and I'm so excited to read it!

My Week In Books (18th March)

It’s been another great week for books. I bought one and acquired another, and was very excited about both.

• The Scarecrow Queen, which I bought to complete the trilogy. 
• All About Mia, sent to me by Kelly for a group read. 

I finished reading The Sin Eater's Daughter trilogy, and read The King of Rats. You can read my thoughts on it here (spoiler: I'm in love).

I was really excited to hear about Holly Bourne’s new book, It Only Happens In The Movies. I've loved all of Holly’s books, and know this one will be just as good.

LET’S TALK ABOUT: The Sin Eater’s Daughter

I have a confession: until recently I had little interest in reading The Sin Eater's Daughter. I've never been into fantasy so I didn't give it much thought.

I've just finished the trilogy in fourteen days, and LOVED it. I was on the edge of my seat until the last moment. Twylla and Errin are incredible, and got the story they deserved.

Melinda Salisbury is a literary wonder. The TSED trilogy pulled me in and wouldn't let me go. I loved (and hated) the characters, and was emotionally destroyed by the end. Never judge a book by its genre.
