Hi Folks!!
Hope you’re all well and keeping safe!!!
Welcome to my stop for another awesome Ultimate Blog Tour!!! A massive THANK YOU to Dave @The_WriteReads for inviting me to take part, and to Egmont Books UK for sending me a physical ARC.
As, you see from the title today’s tour is for the amazing book AMARI AND THE NIGHT BROTHERS BY B.B. Alston
Publisher: Egmont Books UK
Genres: Middle Grade, Fantasy, Fiction
Publication Date: 21st January 2021
Synopsis/Blurb (taken from Goodreads):
An epic middle grade supernatural adventure series, soon to be a major movie starring Marsai Martin. Perfect for readers aged 8+ and fans of Percy Jackson, Nevermoor and Men in Black!
Amari Peters knows three things.
Her big brother Quinton has gone missing.
No one will talk about it.
His mysterious job holds the secret . . .
So when Amari gets an invitation to the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, she’s certain this is her chance to find Quinton. But first she has to get her head around the new world of the Bureau, where mermaids, aliens and magicians are real, and her roommate is a weredragon.
Amari must compete against kids who’ve known about the supernatural world their whole lives, and when each trainee is awarded a special supernatural talent, Amari is given an illegal talent – one that the Bureau views as dangerous.
With an evil magician threatening the whole supernatural world, and her own classmates thinking she is the enemy, Amari has never felt more alone. But if she doesn’t pass the three tryouts, she may never find out what happened to Quinton . . .
My Thoughts & Review
Where do I even start!!! I absolutely loved this book. I binge read it over one weekend. I could have easily read it one sitting but had to spread my reading over two days due to other commitments. I was hooked from the start and let me tell you every time I put this book down all I wanted to do was pick it right up. In fact, I couldn’t put it down long enough and it went with me almost to every part of the house, as every spare moment I tried to sneak a page in in here and there.
I loved everything about this book, from the mix of the real world and the magical world that definitely reminded me of some of my favourite movies and books Men in Black and Harry potter to name a couple. The mix of the two worlds was done so well and a big hit for me.
Another favourite of mine were the characters. They were brilliantly done, you never quite know who to trust. I found all the character brilliantly done, but I did have my favourite. Obviously that favourite character was Amari. I instantly found her likeable, and liked her honesty and how she was so strong and resilient when she is told she isn’t capable of doing things.
Seriously I loved this book so much and I just can’t get it all down into words, but just in case you missed my point I LOVED this book!!!!
I can’t wait to read the next book, so please Mr Alston can we have it as fast as possible as I can’t wait!!! Also hope we don’t have to wait too long for the movie either.
This is definitely the next action packed middle grade fantasy series to keep your eyes out for!!! So, don’t forget to buy your copy in January!!!
