Six weeks. One question.

Are we building environments that develop people or ones that extract from them?

Yesterday I had Silverborne by Jessica Townsend. This series is a lot of fun, and I appreciated that this was sort of a digression from the ongoing plot to let the character develop a little.

The cover for Silverborn: The Mystery of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend. It's a comic-like image of a white girl with long black hair tied back in red and gold ribbons, wearing an orange dress, a long dark blue coat with embroidery at the neck, and high laced boots. She's shooting golden swirls out of her hands. Sparkles and black feathers drift around her, and above her in the distance a large golden and red dragon flies with a black figure riding it.

(And thank you for linking that piece too! I also resent that we had to talk about the giant shitty elephant in the press tour instead of whether JT is advocating for class war in Silverborn.)

Mette-Marit kan få svenska lungor – måste vara tillgänglig dygnet runt

Norges kronprinsessa står i kö för lungtransplantation – och kan få svenska lungor. Norge, Sverige och fyra andra länder samarbetar nämligen kring organdonation. Men att hitta lungor som passar är svårt. – Patienterna måste vara tillgängliga dygnet runt, året runt, säger kirurgen Per Martin Silverborn till Verdens Gang.

When Silverborn: The Mystery of Morrigan Crow came out, I reread the first three & just finished the new one. It was just right: satisfying to see a more of Morrigan's growth as a Wundersmith & learn untold background about the main characters. It left me ready for the 5th book! Adults love MG too!

I’ve really enjoyed reading the Nevermoor series by Jessica Townsend. I’m kind of bummed to be all caught up. Now all I can do is wait impatiently for the next book to be published.

Hardcover book titled Silverborn: The Mystery of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend. The cover illustration shows a flying dragon breathing fire above a girl wearing a dark coat, in a city at night.

I'm glad to hear you liked Silverborn! I feel like I've been anticipating reading so long, I'd worried I'd have overhyped it 😅

I read Silverborn a few weeks ago and loved it. I’d like to read A Box Full of Murders because it’s been recommended to me several times. Everything else is new to me.

Läser högt också! Just nu en Kalle Anka-pocket för sexåringen, och "Silverborn", sista delen i Nevermoore av Jessica Townsend för tioåringen (fast nu har vi inte läst på två veckor för Percy Jackson trängde sig emellan och tar all uppmärksamhet :o ).

Silverborn. A thick book with a purple cover with a young witch on it. There are swirls of light

A dark red book that’s called the masked city. There are white details in the corners

I read 62 books last year. You can tell 2025 was terrible by how many YA (and even middlegrade!) books I read.

Titles in alt text -- it is LONG, took up the entire character count. You are forewarned!

2026's bookish New Year’s resolution is to read at least one book a month that I don’t need to review on my blog. I’m kicking off with the latest in the Nevermoor series on my Kindle.

Cover art for Silverborn: The Mystery of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend, which shows Morrigan wielding magic. She has long, dark hair and is wearing a long purple coat over an orange dress.

I’m about half way through Silverborn: The Mystery of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend, and about a third of the way through Holiday Ever After by Hannah Grace. Townsend’s Nevermoor series is a *perfect* magical MG+ adventure, with found family, magic-learning, ragtag friends and thrilling mystery
