3.5 stars — I think in the end I *wanted* to like this one more than I actually did. It was longer. The pace was slow at times. I didn’t always like Theo. And I just didn’t get as captured emotionally. Basically I can think of other books that share elements of the plot that […]
4.5 stars — Dudes, I can’t handle mysteries…and yet I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I mean, I kept taking breaks along the way, b/c I’m so fucking impatient and I just want answers….but then I’d start it up again and be sucked in! So for something outside my wheelhouse, this was a total success. The […]
4.5 stars — I am struggling with writing this review. I think I’m already sad it’s done. But also relieved that I loved the ending so much. I was honestly a bit worried that I wasn’t going to get all the answers I wanted, but I think I did. There might be a few little […]
4.5 stars — Absolutely fabulous conclusion to this series. I was worried, knowing that the timelines crossed, that I was going to be unsatisfied having to choose which series to finish first…but this one was written in such a way that you saw peeks, but not enough to ruin anything. And at the same time […]
4 stars — This was a fun introduction to another side of the Guild Codex Universe! I loved that after reading most of the other two series, I can catch glimpses of things I recognize, but in general there wasn’t a lot of overlap or anything. This was my first listen of Iggy Toma, and […]
4.5 stars — There were parts of this story that just sucked me in and delighted me! But, as with all my books lately, I did find my mind wandering. I’m thinking it’s more indicative of my state right now than the books I’m reading though. Just having a hard time concentrating I guess. I […]
4.5 stars — I was totally floundering in my reading, just wasn’t able to settle on anything and was getting anxiety about that, you know? So I returned to the Guild Codex Universe, and wow, it worked like a charm! I was immediately sucked in, and basically did anything I could to listen in 2 […]
OVERALL: 3.5 stars — Solid anthology, but since I’m not much of a historical romance reader, I kind of didn’t give that last book a chance because I ran out of steam, you know? Also, the narrator was solid. I’d listened to another book by Ms. Eyre and wasn’t as impressed, but maybe I need […]
5 stars — Honestly, I’m not even sure where to start with this one, I feel like I’m still reeling…in a good way, but wow. This book put me through SO MUCH, and I think it’s going to take a bit to recover, b/c I was seriously heavily invested. I think the word I’m searching […]
4.5 stars — You know what? This fucking delighted me. I don’t even know why, but I just was completely enamoured with Maelyn’s bizarre journey, and I ended it with so much satisfaction. I think part of that delight was wholeheartedly the narration by Patti Murin. Which is funny, b/c she wasn’t perfect. But there […]
