3.5 stars — I started this one by listening to the audiobook, but it really did not capture my attention in that format. It wasn’t that the narrator was bad, I thought she was quite good. But I think there was something about the narrative that just didn’t work for my distracted mind. So I switched […]
4 stars — Yet another book that I was wary of when I started…just wasn’t immediately sucked in, you know? Kept wondering where it was going to go. But somewhere along the way I did get sucked in, and I desperately wanted to know details of the mystery. I think this is probably a 3.75 […]
4 stars — HAAAALLLLLVAAAAAAARRRRDDDD!!!! Needless to say I was a wee bit excited when I figured out this was his story. (especially since it’s not mentioned in the blurb) I definitely enjoyed myself, and while I gave it the same rating, I would say I enjoyed the first book more…but I would almost bump that […]
4 stars — Wow. This one was fairly slow to start, and while I was enjoying it, I wasn’t wowed. It had some moments of repetition, and there were some pacing problems where I felt like there could have been some editing down. But then I got sucked right the fuck in, and holy cow […]
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 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 […]
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 […]
4 stars — This was a solid emotional and entertaining Little Mermaid retelling. Thankfully without the tragedy of the original (sort of spoiler, but I’d want to know). I loved the way that the Mer were portrayed, especially that they didn’t look exactly like humans with tails — just little things like the gills, and […]
