#Review of The Impostor Queen by @finesarah & #Giveaway via @simonteen

  Author:  Sarah Fine  Published By: Margaret K. McElderry Books Release Date: January 5th 2016 Genres:  Young Adult Pages: 432 Source:  Add it to Goodreads Sixteen-year-old Elli was a small child when the Elders of Kupari chose her to succeed the Valtia, the queen who wields infinitely powerful ice and fire magic. Since then, Elli has lived in the temple, surrounded by luxury and tutored by magical priests, as she prepares for the day when the Valtia perishes and the magic finds a new home in her. Elli is destined to be the most powerful Valtia to ever rule.

But when the queen dies defending the kingdom from invading warriors, the magic doesn’t enter Elli. It’s nowhere to be found.

Disgraced, Elli flees to the outlands, the home of banished criminals—some who would love to see the temple burn with all its priests inside. As she finds her footing in this new world, Elli uncovers devastating new information about the Kupari magic, those who wield it, and the prophecy that foretold her destiny. Torn between the love she has for her people and her growing loyalty to the banished, Elli struggles to understand the true role she was meant to play. But as war looms, she must align with the right side—before the kingdom and its magic are completely destroyed.

When I'm not writing, I'm psychologizing (really, I even get a paycheck for it). Sometimes I do both at the same time. The results are unpredictable.

What a great book!! I fell in love with her book Sanctum (I regret that I still haven't finished that series) and I fell in love with this one! I'm so glad I was given a chance to read it! Elli was such a likable character and she is such a strong woman. The description for the world is beautiful and it just drew me in it. There better be a book 2!!
