The Immortal Secret by Christina Farley
5.0
adventurous mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Loveable characters: Yes

I really, really loved this! As a Channeler, it's Estrella's duty to channel magic to her people. After being successful, she's charged with treason, has her memories wiped, and is sent to live as a mortal in a home for other girls like her. Can she get her memories back? Can she save herself and her friends? Who does she trust in the mix of not being able to trust anyone? There's so many questions and not enough answers yet 🫠 

I started out slow with this book because. I felt like there would be a lot to take in, and I'm glad I did. The author wrote such a vivid and unique world and characters that I absolutely LOVE! Everyone has their own role. There are sides characters, but you love them like they're the MC. And the high school drama? Love it. I was crying laughing reading about immortals who were forced to suffer through the high school system because they're on a mission 😂 

All of the girls at the home quickly because best friends and they're relationship makes me so happy. Each girl has a different personality or quirk and it makes reading about them so much fun. 

There's also this *maybe* love triangle? I have my hopes, but nothing concrete lol. I don't see what could away Estrella either way yet, so I'll keep which team I'm on up in the air until at LEAST the first chapter of The Immortal Heart 🤭

I can't wait for November for The Immortal Heart to dive back into this world of battling immortals. 

Thank you so much to the author & RRBookTours for the gifted copy!
