The Cerulean by Amy Ewing sounds like a really interesting new fantasy series. I really loved Ewing’s The Lone City series and I think that this will be amazing. Doesn’t the plot summary of The Cerulean leave you wondering what you just read? I have a feeling that Ewing is planning to take us on a wild ride. I am here for that “mysterious underbelly!”
The Cerulean by Amy Ewing
Title: The CeruleanAuthor: Amy Ewing
Publisher: HarperTeen
Publication Date: February 5, 2019
Sera has always felt as if she didn’t belong among her people, the Cerulean. She is curious about everything and can’t stop questioning her three mothers, her best friend, Leela, and even the High Priestess. Sera has longed for the day when the tether that connects her City Above the Sky to the earthly world below finally severs and sends the Cerulean to a new planet.
But when Sera is chosen as the sacrifice to break the tether, she doesn’t know what to feel. To save her City, Sera must throw herself from its edge and end her own life. But something goes wrong and she survives the fall, landing in a place called Kaolin. She has heard tales about the humans there, and soon learns that the dangers her mothers warned her of are real. If Sera has any hope to return to her City, she’ll have to find the magic within herself to survive.
Book Quotes: The Cerulean by Amy Ewing

About Amy Ewing
Amy Ewing is the young adult author of The Jewel, the first in a trilogy from HarperTeen, coming out September 2014.
She grew up in a small town outside Boston, where her librarian mother instilled a deep love of reading at a young age. Amy moved to New York City in 2000 to study theater at New York University. Unfortunately, her acting career didn’t quite pan out. She worked in restaurants, as an administrative assistant, a nanny, and a sales representative for a wine distributor before the lack of creativity in her life drove her to begin writing.
Amy received her MFA in Creative Writing for Children from The New School, where she was lucky enough to meet a fabulous community of YA writers who keep her sane on a daily basis. She lives in Harlem, where she spends her days writing, eating cheese, and occasionally binge watching The Vampire Diaries.

I’ve read Amy Ewing and wasn’t that into her books but I’m always willing to give authors another shot and it does seem like a pretty good story at least from what I read from the synopsis.
I hope that this one is enjoyable for you! 🙂
Interesting!! I wonder why she has three mothers? And why SHE was chosen as the sacrifice? Just a couple of my questions. LOL
