Thank you to the author Lizzy Gayle for sending me the eARC of The Binding Stone (#1)
I've not really read any books revolving around Djinn and the only experience I had with 'genies' was Aladdin. And well, disney this is not!
What a roller-coaster of a ride! Leela is a Djinn with a very traumatic past, she ends up in the possession of a magician boy - well without spoilers this is where the fun or turn of events really begins.
There's so much going on in this adventure packed story, the pacing is so fast that I was falling through the pages. The turn of events were surprising to me and Gabe - poor Gabe!
I loved the characters and I really love Lizzy Gayle's writing style.
After reading A Love At 20,000 Leagues I was hooked and although The Binding Stone is a completely different read I still enjoyed my adventure into the world of Djinn.
