This was a fantastic start to a potentially great series. I liked how lost everyone was in this book and how emotive they all were. The mystery plot was not too intricate that you had to pay a lot of attention but strong enough to hold the story together and not make it all about […]
Favorite Quotes: Perspective is important, isn’t it? Something that seems so horrible one minute, is like a drop in the ocean the next. That’s the shit I need to stop doing, letting other’s actions influence my own happiness. I am the source of my happiness. I must also remember that I am the designer of […]
I loved the way this concluded. Amali and Kaim were still strong in their devotion in each other despite the fact that they don’t actually see each other till the very end. I love these kinds of love story conclusions. They each grow on their own and still come back to each other stronger than […]
4.5 stars — Well, this one helped my slump! There’s nothing like a favourite series to do that sometimes… I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about Brenna, because she is just so forceful and angry and off-putting. But I actually really appreciated her journey. I know this will sound weird, but I […]
Eh this one was only ok. Very middle of the road, nothing extra special happens that stands out. Trauhn is a possessive alpha who claims one of the humans as soon as they emerge from their crash. I liked his character just fine, but I like these kind of characters. But even his character fell […]
4.5 stars — Well colour me intrigued!! I loved how that story of the women with the feather came into play. It’s all super intriguing. It gives it a bit more of a fantasy vibe than just pure dystopian. And a wall of FIRE?? Crazy!! Lots of great detail about the world beyond what we’ve […]
3.5 stars — *sigh* These books are super fast to gobble up, and I do enjoy that in some ways. But it does mean that, again, not a lot of time is given to certain plot points to really expand on the emotional impact. In this case it was Knox’s father, and Reese’s healing. Knox […]
This one was run of the mill, nothing real special about it. High ranking politial alien (Drax) needs a mate to stabilize his home land; finds ameable human (Lillian) with no ties to family. Human makes hunky alien see compassion and starts to catch feelings. Really that’s all this one is. I didn’t really find […]
Favorite Quote: She still refuses to look at me. If nothing else, her shame is evidence that she has a soul. That’s good. Souls are rolling, organic, never-dying things. Bodies are born and die and decay in between. This book was so fucking delicious! But also, tragic and borderline ridiculous. And I loved every word. […]
3.5 stars — This is a case of a book being almost perfect for me, but failing to get out of its own way in certain areas. Like seriously, I know lots of people are tired of this trope, but I still gravitate towards it — so the book didn’t need to work very hard. […]
