Mysteries of Thorn Manor
In this delightful sequel novella to the New York Times bestselling Sorcery of Thorns, Elisabeth, Nathaniel, and Silas must unravel the magical trap keeping them inside Thorn Manor in time for their Midwinter Ball!
Elisabeth Scrivener is finally settling into her new life with sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn. Now that their demon companion Silas has returned, so has scrutiny from nosy reporters hungry for gossip about the city’s most powerful sorcerer and the librarian who stole his heart. But something strange is afoot at Thorn Manor: the estate’s wards, which are meant to keep their home safe, are acting up and forcibly trapping the Manor'’ occupants inside. Surely it must be a coincidence that this happened just as Nathaniel and Elisabeth started getting closer to one another…
With no access to the outside world, Elisabeth, Nathaniel, and Silas—along with their new maid Mercy—will have to work together to discover the source of the magic behind the malfunctioning wards before they’re due to host the city’s Midwinter Ball. Not an easy task when the house is filled with unexpected secrets, and all Elisabeth can think about is kissing Nathaniel in peace. But when it becomes clear that the house, influenced by the magic of Nathaniel’s ancestors, requires a price for its obedience, Elisabeth and Nathaniel will have to lean on their connection like never before to set things right.

This was adorable. I recently listened to Sorcery of Thorns and loved it so I was so excited to get a chance to participate in this tour.
As Elisabeth and Nathanial grow closer strange things start happening all around them. It takes the help of Silas and the secrets of the Manor to reveal what is causing all the ruckus. In this novella we get to learn more about Nathanial’s upbringing and the relationship he had with his family before their death. The house starts awakening as the story develops and we learn that it’s not just hiding secrets but actual rooms. It was fun to see Elisabeth rediscover her relationship with the grimoires as well and the connection she has to them and the house was an intricate part to the story.
This picks up just after Sorcery of Thorns ended and it was fun to see more of Elisabeth and Nathanial as they adjust to their new life together. Silas is probably my favorite character and I loved him in this one. He’s such a snarky character and the tone of the entire book is just so light and fun.
If you enjoyed Sorcery of Thorns and are looking for a little more than I definitely recommend this novella!
