This magical system pulled me right into the story. Starts with a battle, betrayal, and so many changes in the life of our main character, Kalina. From inventor to commander and then to teacher of the chosen one, she is the only one who has survived a shattering of a personal instrument. She may have lo

Mimi secretly feeds her liangcha to the fish, and hides it in a plant, and pours it down the sink—anything to avoid drinking it again. But Waipo has an idea. One morning, she ma
