4.5 stars — I actually was a bit wary of this book and Violet and Nico’s love story, but after reading it I have decided that all my trust shall be placed in this author! In the previous two books, these characters have such a contentious relationship, and I wasn’t sure what the past was […]
3.5 stars — This one started off super flat for me. Honestly, if it wasn’t a book club book and I wasn’t buddy reading, I would have DNFd and moved on to something else. I don’t really read MG books, but this one definitely read more like MG than YA for me. The characterizations were […]
5 stars — Wow. Just, this was more than everything I was looking for in a book, and I loved it from start to finish. Sometimes I find 5 star reviews the hardest to write, because there’s so much I feel, but I don’t want to spoil anything and I feel weird just absurdly gushing, […]
2.5 stars — Well that was a disappointment. I would have enjoyed this book 1000 times more if it was half the size. I truly don’t know if Ms. Dixon lost a good editor, or if it’s KU padding, but it was repetitive as fuck. I can also say that I don’t think the narrators […]
3.5 stars — I absolutely LOVED the first chapter and the relationship it sets up for Farah and Dougan. My heart broke, I was 100% invested, I was in love. The rest of the book just never quite lived up to that first chapter for me. I definitely FELT for what Dorian had been through, […]
3.5 stars — I thought I would like this one more than I did, but I was disappointed that Sam never really had plans to open up to anyone else, especially Steph…course, that might change after the book takes place, but I’m still bummed. Sam had a LOT going on with her, and having never […]
4.5 stars — Well that was a whole heck of a lot of fun and goodness!! Lots of great chemistry, a super fun world, great supporting cast, and an adorable couple to root for! Evie was absolutely adorable. I loved her absolute verve for life, how easily she showed her love and excitement for things. […]
4 stars — I absolutely loved the setting for this book, and now kind of want to check out a renaissance faire. And while I enjoyed Simon and Emily’s story, I have a feeling it was never going to be my favourite in a series I’m looking forward to continuing. I listened to this one, […]
4 stars — Oh yeah, this was what I was looking for. I was feeling a bit book slumpish, so I was so excited when the audio came out for this one and I pounced on it. This series always gives me what I’m looking for. Obviously I love some stories more than others, some […]
4 stars — My reading buddy likened this book to a Hallmark Christmas movie, and I have to agree that it’s a pretty great comparison! It’s light, but has enough depth to keep things interesting. And while you generally know the final outcome pretty early, the journey is still fun. I will admit that I […]
