Harley in the Sky
Harley Milano has dreamed of becoming a trapeze artist for as long as she can remember. With parents who run a famous circus in Las Vegas, she spends almost every night in the big top watching their lead aerialist perform, wishing with all her heart and soul that she would be up there herself one day.
After a huge fight with her parents, who continue to insist she go to school instead, Harley leaves home, betrays her family, and joins the rival traveling circus Maison du Mystère. There, she is thrust into a world that is both brutal and beautiful, where she learns the value of hard work, passion, and collaboration. At the same time, Harley must come to terms with the truth of her family and her past—and reckon with the sacrifices she made and the people she hurt in order to follow her dreams.
RingMaster – What book introduced you to your favourite genre?
This is difficult, because I can’t remember a specific book. I do remember my first like serious author crush was Tamora Pierce with the Lady Knight series, but specifically with the Wild Magic series. I read that TO PIECES. And then promptly read everything else Tamora Pierce had ever written.
Acrobatics – A fast-paced read.
In general, I find that contemporary and middle grade books are faster for me to read. But if I had to pick a specific book? I recently read All the Walls of Belfast. Not only had I no real knowledge about the historical fiction setting of Belfast after post the Troubles. It’s also a book that is full of action and it’s also not overly long.
Clowns – A book that made you laugh.
I want to pick a YA book, because my go to pick has always been Red, White & Royal Blue. Wicked As You Wish is such a fun book. There’s moments of humor, but also depth as Chupeco tackles our family’s hidden secrets.
Knife thrower – A book that had you on the edge of your seat.
The Electric Heir. I feel like with series enders the stake is always higher and The Electric Heir is truly amazing. It delivers on the character growth from The Fever King in a truly brilliant way.
Tightrope Walker – A book you just couldn’t put down.
This is a little bit of cheeky move on my part, but I have to pick my current read Girls with Razor Hearts. I wanted to finish it like an hour ago, but I told myself I had to write this post.
Ventriloquist – A book with a great twist.
The Never Tilting World by Rin Chupeco has some of the best reveals. Like it never gets old and I cannot wait for the sequel!
Magician – A book with a magic system you love.
I recently read Sensational, the sequel to Spectacle, and I can’t get over how cool the magic is. Talk about a magic with a cost and Zdrok constantly looks at this cost.
Static Trapeze – Best or Worst Cliffhanger.
I gotta say that Natasha Ngan is the queen of cliffhangers that grip you in the throat and NEVER let go. If you caught up to Girls of Storm and Shadow I’m here for you.
I just finished Harley in the Sky and absolutely loved it! I might have to do this tag! In March, I’m also looking forward to Girls with Razor Hearts and K.A.Tucker’s Wild at Heart.
OMG I just started last night and I love the setting so far!
