The 100 Cupboards: The Chestnut King

In the series The 100 Cupboards, I have moved on to book 3 (The Chestnut King) since I have last posted. This book talks about the main character (Henry York Maccabee) finally battling the evil witch Niamine. Niamine has currently taken over the king and his kingdom. (the magical world in which Henry lives in.) Her evil is slowly consuming the entire world as she grows stronger. It is up to Henry to stop her, and take down her wickedness with the help of the Chestnut King and his armies of Faren. in exchange for the Chestnut King’s help, Henry must take the place of him and rule the world of the Faren until Henry himself dies.
As I read this book, I am reminded of the series “The School for Good and Evil” which is also about a magical world of fairy tales. The two main characters themselves are evil and good. They command their own magical powers as well. These two books are similar in my opinion because of the magic used in the two books. Each person has their own kind of magic, and their heart commands how that magic is used. They can use their magic to stand on the good side, or the evil side.
In the end, I plan on reading the fourth book in the series, and then I will be finished. I love how the author has written many of the characters and how the books all work together. In the end, I am sad that I have come to the end of book 3, seeing as the main characters will not be in the 4th book. I can connect to this book myself for the reason that I have found myself fighting evil in my life, just not the same way as Henry. In all, I love this series and I plan on reading every book in it, and hopefully more from the same author.

"if your reading this its too late"

"If you're reading this it's too late" is by pseudonymous bosch , is about a fight between max-ernst and ms.mauvais the two main characters . The book starts off with the narrator talking about a secret being let out and could cause danger to the reader and the person in the story , making the plot thicken and making the reader wonder "what's the secret" . in the book so far whats happens is , one of the main characters named max is in a very lucid dream that she wakes up from , feeling like she's being haunted by the thought of the evil ms.mauvais . The problem in this story is similar to an event that happened in history. Like the watergate scandal , in the watergate scandal richard nixon had a big secret going on. He was try to make sure it didn't get out just like in the beginning of my book big there's an ancient dangerous secret going on and if it was let out it would cause chaos . In both of the incidents there's a lot of chaos but...
