Scarred Fae & Sensual Dreams
·
Day Leitao’s The Cursed Son was a romantasy that focused heavily on the romance part; this wasn’t an issue — the issue was how forced the banter and “tension” were at times. There was also a lot of confusion with the plot and lore, although I chalked that up to the novel being in first-person…

Lois Duncan’s I Know What You Did Last Summer in preparation for watching the reboot with my sibling. Honestly? I was disappointed; however, I attribute this to having watched the film first. While I can appreciate a good psychological thriller, I am human, so this was a meh for me.

Shrouded Secrets & Harden Stones

The Knight & The Moth for a local book club and damn, it grabbed me by the lapels and swung me around like Miss Trunchbull did to that poor girl. While this wasn’t the first book I’ve read where an oppressive religion ruled over its people, it is the first to have the structure that…

A Key & The Right Tyde

I found Of the Stars & Sea to be a diamond in a haystack. It was a refreshing fantasy read, as it deviated from the fae hype and delved into the world of pirates and treasure hunting. I loved the romance and banter! I was kicking my feet at times. The worldbuilding was moderately immersive,…

Rebel Heists & Animal Souls

This one was a tough, tough read due to the extent of Mancella’s power. I spent a lot of this read sobbing; that being said, I do recommend it. I enjoyed the lore and worldbuilding of the story.

Fearless, the conclusion to Lauren Roberts’ Powerless Trilogy, ripped my heart out at least four times, collected my tears in a jar, sewed me back together, gently kissed my cheek as it ended, and left me with a two-month-long book hangover. 10/10 would recommend.

Winged Vamps & Hidden Heirs

The Serpent and the Wings of Night wrecked me. The last 30% of the book had me sobbing, yearning, and aching. The twists left me gasping, the banter had me laughing, and the ending had me begging for more.

Witch Masks & Gory Summers

Two Sides To Every Murder was a five-star read for me, and I will never stop recommending it along with How To Survive Your Murder! I loved the vibe, the characters, the twists and turns, and loved the ending! The epilogue closed up loose ends while opening the door to a sequel. Such a divine…

Pheromones & Feral Blood Lust

Zoo was a lackluster read for me. The plot was two-dimensional with little character development. In this case, the TV show was much better than the novel. Honestly, I don’t have much to say besides the fact that I was disappointed.
