Disclaimer: I signed up for this blog tour long before FFBC uploaded a very controversial picture regarding the Black Lives Matter movement in their Instagram story. They have since deleted the picture, however I want to clarify that this post will be my last post with the blog tour company because of their highly insensitive remarks. This post is purely book-related because Kester Grant is an amzing author and she deserves all the attention for her new book. Please don’t forget to sign the petitions, educate yourself on a system that actively discriminate against black people and do your part as a good citizen.
Hey guys! I’m so excited to be part of the Court of Miracles Blog Tour today!
BOOK INFORMATION
The Court of Miracles (A Court of Miracles #1)
by Kester Grant
Publisher: Knopf Children’s
Release Date: June 2nd 2020
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, Historical Fiction, Retellings, Science Fiction
Synopsis:
Les Misérables meets Six of Crows in this page-turning adventure as a young thief finds herself going head to head with leaders of Paris’s criminal underground in the wake of the French Revolution.
In the violent urban jungle of an alternate 1828 Paris, the French Revolution has failed and the city is divided between merciless royalty and nine underworld criminal guilds, known as the Court of Miracles. Eponine (Nina) Thénardier is a talented cat burglar and member of the Thieves Guild. Nina’s life is midnight robberies, avoiding her father’s fists, and watching over her naïve adopted sister, Cosette (Ettie). When Ettie attracts the eye of the Tiger–the ruthless lord of the Guild of Flesh–Nina is caught in a desperate race to keep the younger girl safe. Her vow takes her from the city’s dark underbelly to the glittering court of Louis XVII. And it also forces Nina to make a terrible choice–protect Ettie and set off a brutal war between the guilds, or forever lose her sister to the Tiger.

It’s crazy! I don’t even want to repeat what they said because that’s simply offending but I just hate that they’re in such a monopoly position. They’ve grown so much and are actually one of the few blog tour companies that even accept international bloggers. I love the books that they support but this “slip” of them just tells me a lot about their communication

I love how detailed the cover is. I’ve seen it many times, but am just now noticing some cool stuff.
