Olivie Blake's The Atlas Six
This is one of those books TikTok is all over, but I hadn’t been impressed with several of their other buzz books so was like eh. But then Tor snapped this series up and since I usually like their books, I was like, sure, I’ll give it a shot. And it was awesome! It’s about six people (mostly in their twenties but a couple seem to be early thirties), powerful magicians, who are selected to try out to be part of an elite secret society descended from the library of Alexandria (who hoard its knowledge! So rude!). But only five will make it through…. Obviously some of the characters work better than others, but the plot and the magic and the tension keep things moving. Great reveals near the end. The only bummer is having to wait for the sequel. A/A-.
