If You Like Libba Bray Books, You’ll Love…
The Diviners is the first book in the series of the same name. The book follows Evangeline O’Neil, a girl who has been exiled from her old hometown and sent to New York City. The year is 1926 and the city is booming with speakeasies. She is sent to live with her uncle Will who has an unhealthy obsession with the occult. That’d be weird for most, but it’s especially tough for Evangeline who worries he’ll discover that she actually has supernatural power. Will’s knowledge comes into play when the police ask him for help with a murdered girl that is branded with a symbol. Suddenly, Evie realizes that her powers could help her catch a killer and maybe her power isn’t so bad after all.
A Great and Terrible Beauty is the first book in the Gemma Doyle trilogy. The book takes place in 1895 and follows Gemma Doyle after the suicide of her mother. She had been living in India, but is shipped off to Spence, a proper English boarding school. Gemma is haunted by visions of the future that become true while also dealing with an Indian man who was sent to watch over her.
