Review:
The Reader by Traci Chee is so incredibly interesting and cool. I really enjoyed this book because it was so different than anything else that I have read. Chee brings readers a beautifully written debut novel with diverse characters and amazing world building. Writing and Readers i completely forbidden in this world and is a very uncharted territory for people. There is hidden magic and so much danger that this book will leave you on the edge of your seat.
One thing that I kind of enjoyed about this book is the more I read, the more I felt like I didn't know anything. This story is like an onion, each time you peel back a layer you find out that there are more layers to peel. I am looking forward to diving into more layers with the future books in this series. I loved that this book kept me guessing and wanting more. The more I would seek answers, the more questions I would have.
The book opens with Sefia's journey with her aunt Nin, but when Nin is found and taken has prisoner by a heartless group on people who are after a book. Sefia knows that they are after the book that she carries around in her pack but she doesn't know why. All she knows is that this is the last possession she has from her parents. As Sefia takes on this adventure on ehr own she ends up finding a boy that is like her to help. Together they decipher the book and read all of the stories. As she finds herself lost in these stories, she learns more about herself, her past, and her parents.
The Reader is a book you don't want to miss. This series is going to be epic and you want to make sure that you are on this journey. This world is so huge and amazing. The writing is incredible. Don't miss out on The Reader because you is a vast world to discover.

I was so excited to dive in and start creating this candle. I wanted to show off the blue and green of the beautiful cover of The Reader and I also wanted to show off the gold lettering. The scents needed to fit with the book and the writing of the author.
