Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Arthur lives with his father, a fallen but proud former noble, in Border Village #49, along with the other good folks condemned to toil in service to the Baron. But Arthur has an edge: a stolen heart card that secretly fell into his possession, thanks to a dragon. It’s a priceless source of power for the Baron and the tyrant will kill to get it back. Invaluable, too, to a young man of spellcasting ambitions.

Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 103
When Finlay Ashowan joins the staff of the King and Queen of Daxaria, he’s an enigma. No one knows where he comes from or how he came to be where he is, which suits Fin just fine. He’s satisfied simply serving as the royal cook, keeping nosy passersby out of his kitchen, and concocting some truly uncanny meals. But Fin’s secret identity doesn’t stay hidden for long. After all, it’s not every day a house witch and his kitten familiar, Kraken, take to meddling in imperial affairs.

Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
In the start of an all-new series, the best-selling author of Uprooted and Spinning Silver introduces you to a dangerous school for the magically gifted where failure means certain death - until one girl begins to rewrite its rules.
Enter a school of magic unlike any you have ever encountered.
There are no teachers, no holidays, friendships are purely strategic and the odds of survival are never equal.
Once you’re inside, there are only two ways out: you graduate or you die.
El Higgins is uniquely prepared for the school’s many dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out untold millions - never mind easily destroy the countless monsters that prowl the school.
Except, she might accidentally kill all the other students, too. So El is trying her hardest not to use it...that is, unless she has no other choice.
Wry, witty, endlessly inventive and mordantly funny - yet with a true depth and fierce justice at its heart - this enchanting novel reminds us that there are far more important things than mere survival.

Wasn’t sold initially but then had me in stitches
Wasn’t sure on the style originally but ended up loving it. Persevere if you think it’s not for you. Just like the characters in the books, we as readers need to give Elle chance.

Couldn't put it down - and still can't!!
Novik brings to life a deadly, fascinating world, and El is an entrancing character to be experiencing it all through. The complexity, creativity and ingenuity throughout has kept my constant interest, through many re-reads.
Anisha Dadia goes above and beyond as narrator, enhancing El's witty, snarky personality with on point vocal attitude. Every time I read the hard copy of this book, it's Anisha's voice I imagine. ❤❤❤
A must read for lovers of dangerous fantasy, magic and badass protagonists!

Pretty good
A good base for understand how the school work a good set up for the next book. The girl sounds like a sook; where as she should have just sounded like an independent person that wasn’t used to people helping her. Worth a listen though. I will get the next book, so was worth it.

Wonderfully cliche
It's got all the tropes of a YA fantasy, high school romance novel - but it's done very well. The protagonists doesn't dwell in teen angst too long, so you don't cringe at everything they do.
The narrator does an excellent job. Her voice is full of expression and is able to convey the action packed scenes well.

Fun story
This was a very quick and fun read. I really enjoyed listening to the main character’s relationships with other characters throughout the book. The main character did have a tendency to overly describe and get sidetracked with telling long back stories in the middle of the plot which could sometimes get a bit distracting and slow. But overall enjoyed this book and keen to see where this story goes.
The narration by Anisha was excellent, there was good expression and she captured the main characters voice extremely well.

Perfect narrator
Anisha Dadia has a voice that would lead you to believe she is El, a British teenager with an extra helping of sass, and plenty of bile to spare. Given the the novel is written from the POV of El, the main character, and contains a lot of her inner thoughts and monologues, it wouldn't have made sense to have an older, narrator style voice.
The audiobook feels almost like a movie where we are listening to the young girls thoughts. As for the characters, I love how much, justifiable, rage and bitterness comes from El. Don't worry if this scares you, she will absolutely grow throughout the book.
Orion is one dimensional, kind of, but that us a) actually explainable as you discover his circumstances, and b) there are hints that he is struggling and there is more to him than what we see on the surface. To be honest, any side character that pops up is interesting.
That said, the best character of them all is the scholomance itself. Takes the 'High School is Hell' metaphor and runs with it. If I have to sold you already, then listen to this; Literally, the very last line in the book, is the best line in the entire story, imo. Made me buy the sequel, immediately.

Not Hogwarts
Loved this book when I first read it and enjoyed the narration just as much.
This is a school of
Magic but with no adult wizards to protect you and horrible beasts that want to eat you.
