#BookReview: The Lost Portal (Mirror Realm #2) by Lenore Borja



ABOUT THIS BOOK:
For fans of Kendare Blake’s Goddess War series comes this second installment in a gripping YA fantasy series that follows a band of huntresses taking on a world of demons and gods.

For years, Hadley Caldwell kept humanity safe by hunting demons. But that came to an end when the Mirror Realm disappeared. Now her life is filled with bridesmaid dresses, family pressures, and—oh yeah—hosting ancient deities in her sleep. It’s not world-saving work, but if dream-hosting is all it takes to keep the gods happy, she’s willing to play along and leave her huntress days behind her. That is, until the gods demand something the Portal of Osiris.

The Portal was part of the Realm. It shouldn’t exist anymore. But the gods believe it does, and claim it holds the key to their salvation. The quest for the Portal takes Hadley and her band of huntress sisters on an enigmatic adventure to the sands of Egypt and beyond. But chasing a portal isn’t as easy as outrunning your past, and soon the only things Hadley knows for certain are that the gods can’t be trusted . . . and some portals should never be found.

Join Hadley, Alice, Olivia, and Soxie in this electrifying second book of the Mirror Realm series as they traverse the globe on an ancient scavenger hunt full of mystery, magic, intrigue, and sisterhood.







RAITING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
REVIEW: 
"The Lost Portal" continues the exhilarating journey of Alice and the Huntresses as they take on another high-stakes mission to save the world. This time, their task is to uncover fragments of an ancient puzzle, crucial to unraveling the mystery that drives their quest. With each clue they find, the true meaning of their mission comes into sharper focus, and the tension mounts with every step they take.

While the first book centered on Alice’s perspective, the second installment offers a refreshing change. The spotlight shifts to Hadley, giving readers a more in-depth look at her personal challenges. This shift allows for a richer exploration of the group dynamics, as we not only follow Hadley’s internal struggles but also witness the turmoil affecting the other Huntresses.

I hope the series continues to embrace this pattern, with future books offering the perspectives of the remaining Huntresses. This rotating viewpoint would provide a deeper connection to each character, allowing us to know them as well as we've come to know Alice and Hadley, adding complexity and depth to the story.
