Bad Magic, by Pseudonymous Bosch
The final installment in Bosch’s Bad Books trilogy is a hilarious, fantastic tale that pits Clay against the dangerous members of the Midnight Sun. Filled with dragons, secrets and laughs, the book is the perfect island read as it’s set on an island and—I happen to know the author wrote it while we were in an island in Hawaii.
