3 Major Causes of the 1917 February Russian Revolution

ByLiteraria Luminaria

The 20th century was one filled with significant change within Europe, including the Russian Revolution of 1917, which consisted of two pivotal rebellions that year. While the latter November Revolution led to the rise of a group of communists known as the Bolsheviks to power, it was the initial February Revolution that ended centuries of imperial rule in Russia.

Mother of Pearl

Mother of Pearl Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Mother of Pearl by Blanka H. Madow follows Valeri, who discovers her ancestral power after being separated from her sister in a foreign land. The book offers descriptive world-building; slow, but promising, character development; and evocative writing with morally grey themes. The story leaves readers wanting more and holds great potential for the series.

Tempests and Tea Leaves

Tempests and Tea Leaves Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Tempests and Tea Leaves is a delightful blend of magical charm, sharp banter, and slow-burn romance—think Bridgerton (season 2!) meets fae fantasy, with a dash of Pride and Prejudice. Rachel Morgan has truly crafted a world where magic is everything, but it’s also about navigating society’s expectations, personal growth, and, of course, falling in love when you least expect it.

Night

Night Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Elie Wiesel’s Night is not just a book—it is a testimony, a warning, and an unflinching look into the depths of human cruelty. It is the kind of book that lingers in your mind long after you finish it, not because of elaborate prose or dramatic storytelling, but because every word feels like a wound that refuses to heal. This is a book that demands to be read.

Hall of Mirrors

Hall of Mirrors Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Hall of Mirrors by John Copenhaver is a gripping historical mystery set in 1950’s McCarthy-era Washington, D.C. that follows Lionel Kane’s quest to uncover the truth behind his partner’s suspicious death. With multiple perspectives from complex characters, vivid period details, and a compelling narrative, it captures the tension and social injustices of the time.
