This book was a decent sized but it seemed like a short story to me. There was a lot of action but the romance was a bit slow and really more banter than anything actually happening. The storyline was good but the characters didn’t really jump out at me with memorable traits. The whole story […]
Favorite Quote: There’s a sad beauty to this place, like a rainbow in an oil slick. I don’t know what draws me to these dark romances, maybe its that loves seems to almost always redeem them in the end. Whatever the reason this is by far the BEST dark romance I have ever read. Callie […]
I’m not very familiar with japanese mythology so this was pretty new to me. The title, cover art and blurb really pulled my attention in. The story was so rich and descriptive and filled with many traditions that were explained in great detail. The emotional bonds the characters develop so intense and serious yet playful […]
Favorite Quotes: “I was the arts and entertainment writer for an online news site but they just laid off most of us in order to concentrate on video. Something quick and easy that doesn’t require any thought to absorb.” “Sounds like a metaphor for the current state of the world.” We’re so imperfect, ye see. […]
This book immediately pulled me in with the dark undertones of both the characters and the plot itself. It was mysterious and addicting. Callie seems broken and unable to deal with the traumas that she experienced at such a young age. When nothing else seemed to work she turns to the bargainer to ease her […]
This story started out awesome. It was fast paced and Vinna was a bad mama from gate. The first fighting scene was pretty cool since she was just fighting some folks then when they started to win, she switched sides to even it out. LOL, sounds like something I would do. She meets some dudes […]
Favorite Quote: I know what it’s like to talk about something like it’s normal, because it is normal to you, and yet you know the wrongness of it, feel the ache of it, in a way that can never be undone. Vinna evolves a bit in this story, she becomes more forgiving. But I still […]
This book was a bit weird. I was digging it for a bit then it got too weird for me and I just finished it because I was close to the end. I didn’t want to DNF it at 90% ya know? I skimmed the rest. It started out a bit fast and I wasn’t […]
Favorite quote: Everyone has a war to fight. Most battles rage in the lonely dark. A lesson to remember. I loved this story. I love these authors so liking the story isn’t that far of a stretch. The world building was well written and didn’t overshadow the story. Sometimes that happens. The characters had depth […]
Ok, Willa is one of the luckiest and unluckiest dwellers in this world. She is one of those people that tripped and stumbled so often that she just went with it after a while and held faith in the universe that she would come out on top. This series is a bit ridiculous as her […]
