    What Hunts Inside the Shadows was definitely more plot-heavy than its predecessor – which we love. We still got some good spice but it focused more on the world’s lore and the origin of everything. The blend of religions and lore was intriguing and enjoyable. Want smut? Plot? Lore and action?

    What Lies Beyond the Veil was the perfect smutty fantasy read I needed. Loads of amazing spice while still maintaining world-building and lore. I listened to the entire series on Audible, and it had quite the chokehold on me! Caelum reminded me of Henry Cavill’s drool-worthy character, Geralt from The Witcher.

    House of Sky and Breath left me in such a book hangover that it’s taken me MONTHS to finally get to my review! House of Sky and Breath was rich with action, secrets, conspiracies, and romance that I got completely immersed in the storyline. I honestly can’t rave about this book enough!

    I honestly wish I read this sooner! I will say I was definitely happy I bought the audiobook for this and decided to listened to it because it was a very slow in the beginning. I bought the audiobook for House of Sky and Breath, and am excited to start!

    I enjoyed Twisted Hate. The spicy scenes were top-tier. I also enjoyed that Huang didn’t end the book with the heroine and the hero getting married. They were together, but they both decided to take it slow. It was a nice change. 5/5 would recommend to those who love enemies-to-lovers.

    I received Starling House in my October 2023 Owlcrate Adult Fantasy Box, and immediately fell in love with the blurb as well as the gorgeous special edition I got. Starling House was filled with eerie vibes, monsters, forbidden love, and fantasy. I loved the footnotes in book’s formatting and layout.

    I enjoyed Hannah Grace’s Icebreaker. Very fluffy. The one issue I had was that this book definitely could’ve been 100 pages shorter. There were quite a few filler chapters and scenes that didn’t contribute much to the plot. Maybe a little too much on the character development. 4/5 would recommend.

    From Blood & Ash was a fast-paced romantasy filled with an oppressive, religious-fueled government, a false chosen one, and forbidden romance that’ll leave you yearning for more. The indepth and immersive world-building to help even out the romance and banter. The atmosphere and characters that Armentrout built were amazing and infuriating.

    Between Wrath & Mercy was probably one of my favorite Romantasy novels as an adult. While it is a long read, I was captivated by the plot and the world-building. Jess Wisecup keeps you engaged by not revealing the character’s past all at once; you only get snippets of it throughout.

    Welcome to Emberfall

    Brigid Kemmerer’s A Curse So Dark and Lonely was a modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast with a very different twist than the story we all know and love. Although set in the present, we were transported to a world filled with magic and mystery. I love a good fairytale retelling.
