Thicker Than Blood release + Dress Like The Covers

Today is the highly anticipated release of the third book in Lindsey Sablowski's The Magicians Series; Thicker Than Blood. It is now available in ebook format as well as a physical paperback copy.

It is the story of Alaire Sencler, who was the leading man in the first novel, Cursed With Power. I haven't read TTB yet, but I know from CWP that Alaire--besides being a totally swoon-worthy literature crush--is a really good man, though he has his own secrets and struggles. I'm excited to read things from his point of view instead of Celestria's, as in the first book, or Leal's, as in the second.

Since you probably couldn't garner the slightest idea of what the book is about, here is the official summary:

Alaire Sencler is not the man he used to be. He left behind a foul and bloody past to be with the woman he loves, but the memories never allow him to forget what he did.
While the White magicians raise an army, their leader hides his true reasons for going to war. Meanwhile the Dark magicians seek out a new haven, one that might keep them hidden long enough to prepare for the war that is raging on outside their doorstep.
Though Alaire has a unique gift and the woman of his dreams by his side, he has yet to come to terms with Esmour's death and what the future holds for him. New faces and the revealing of the fifth Dark magicians offers hope, but only the strongest will survive in the final battle.
Whoever said "blood runs thicker than water" never knew what it is like to be a part of the current.

I had something a little bigger planned for this occasion, but as I seem to major in procrastination, I found out last minute that my printer wasn't working *facepalm*, thus my plans were foiled. (Sorry Lindsey! I'll make it up to you!).

And so this post doesn't go entirely without something fashion related, I've composed a few Polyvore sets inspired by The Magician Series.

Let's start where it all began; Cursed With Power



Cursed With Power-inspired

I put together sort of a dressy dress-up look, but I feel like this could be worn for a multitude of occasions.

Next, Shadows and Embers


Shadows and Embers-inspired

This one is more casual, and um, I would totally wear this all the time.

Last but by no means least, Thicker Than Blood.


Thicker Than Blood-inspired

This look stuck most closely to the cover because I already composed some cover inspired outfits last month to celebrate the cover reveal.

So sorry Lindsey for the overdue post, and everyone else, go check out the book!

Here are the purchase links: GoodreadsCreatspaceAmazon, Amazon UK, Barnes & Noble. (links will be updated as they become available)

And the ebook is just $3.99! Heck yeah, reading yeah!

Until next time, I will be catching up on The Magicians Series - Kae xoxo

    Attempt #2!
    Kae, thank you for participating in the release! I'm writing up a new post on my blog, so I'll be including the link to your post on there as well so others can see your creativity.
    I'm happy to hear you'll be catching up on the series, and the fact that you want to hear the story from Alaire's perspective. (Definitely sounds like a quote to include in my post).

    Thanks again :)
