One young woman is seeing Red these days, and it’s not because of her favorite color- she’s been chosen by the goddesses of ancient Rome to be the last keeper of the eternal flame. #YA #paranormal #thriller #timetravel #Supernatural #VestalVirgins #BookSky #historicalfiction amzn.to/1VGburS

What a lovely surprise to wake up to! ❤️

Thank you kindly for your golden words, dear Jordan! I'm enchanted to hear you enjoyed "The Weaver of Odds".

Looking especially forward to hearing your thoughts on "Vivian Amberville - The Book of Chaos"

Really enjoyed "Vivian Amberville The Weaver of Odds" by @louiseblackwick.com . She released the second book in this series just this year and I will get to it eventually. I'll also do a full review later. For now you should add this series to your TBR pile. 4⭐. www.goodreads.com/book/show/43...
A Poetic Reflection by J. River on Vivian Amberville The Weaver of Odds by L. Blackwick In the hush of halls where hope has fled, Vivian waits—a ward, world-forgot. No kin, no name but the one she keeps, She dreams of days the dark devoured. A gift grows grimly: thought turns thread. Her mind makes shift in the mesh of fate— a Weaver born, yet blind to craft. From worn-world walls, she’s wrenched away, to Ærria’s edge where old ones dwell. Alarian adepts—artful, austere— twist the Threads that tie the stars. They teach the turn of woven will, where deed is drawn from dream’s desire. But storm comes swift: the Trials rise. A proving place, a perilous path. Vivian walks with wary friends, steel-bound in bond and soul-sworn aim. Through riddle-realm and ruin’s gate, she finds her self in scattered shards— not all she was, nor what she feared. For thought is flame, and mind makes world. She learns to spin the odds anew.
