Content Warnings: violence, self-harm, so much blood, sexual violence, we also swear If you really enjoyed this book, we’re sorry, you may want to skip this one. A Darker Shade of Magic is a contemporary fantasy novel that’s short on background info, long on every trope, and not a series we will be continuing. Our next book discussion will be All This Could Be Different by Sarah Thankam Mathews. You can find it at your local bookstore or library and read along with us.    If you want to read along with The Bookstore Challenge 2023, you can find Instagram graphics for your story or grid in this Google Drive folder.
