3.5 stars — I will admit that I have not read any Austen books, including Emma. But as I was reading this book I realized I did know another Emma retelling really well: Clueless!! It helped to have that in the back of my mind in some ways, to sort of acknowledge certain aspects of […]
This one was an easy read. No real plot or character depth, but a fun story. It was a bit too unbelievable, even knowing it’s fiction. Everything just fell into place a little easily. There was no real big bad that was difficult to beat. As soon as something bad happened, it was resolved almost […]
This book is fantastic. I loved the world building, this world really came to life for me. It was dark, bloody, action packed and filled with court intrigue. The ruthlessness of Kaim was apparent from the beginning and I loved the foreshadowing of his heritiage. His powers at first seemed lame but when woven with […]
What a great follow up! While its clear that they have very real feelings for each other, in the beginning of this installment they struggle a bit with how to balance their feelings and what to do about everyone that wants them dead. Its just a little bit though, it was a nice little bump […]
4 stars — I might be in the minority, but I kind of love alternative POV short stories. I love getting in the head of another major character and seeing things through their eyes. And that’s what this short story from Peree gave me. The problem? It was too short. It just made me want […]
I was very hesitant in reading this book. In part because I don’t really like academy series. But a group I’m a part of posted an excerpt and it intrigued me enough to overcome my hesitatition and try it. SO GLAD I DID! Tamsin is the most fleshed out chraracter I’ve ever read, if a […]
Man, the first one was so good but then this one……just fell so damn flat for me. Nothing really happens throughout this story. We have no progression, like, at all. She is still figuring out being turned, and no one has told her anything about what to expect. And she hasn’t even asked. It’s a […]
3 stars — I am pretty fussy with my enemies to lovers trope stories, and this one was okay, but hit some of my buttons that prevented it from being more than just okay. Although I did stay up late reading it, so it was compelling! The problem with this one (for me) is that […]
4.5 stars — I made the mistake of reading this book while I was listening to another book that had a lot of similarities, so I will admit that that had me flustered and confused sometimes. Rookie mistake, I swear. Regardless of all that, I really fell in love with the quirky characters in this book, from […]
I love the layers Kendall has, although personality wise she is nothing special. Just a broken girl who keeps getting back up after being knocked down so much. I think she could have been fleshed out a bit more. The four guys are run of the mill in their alpha, beta, comedic and easy going […]
