4.5 stars — You know it’s weird. I don’t read books in this genre, so maybe I’m just finding that this is a genre I would enjoy, but I’ve been LOVING this series. And it genuinely always makes me happier from listening to it. Part of it is that I love this narrator. She conveys […]
4.5 stars — This was a tasty little short story, a perfect treat! I highly recommend reading it between books 3 and 4, just like I did. I loved that I already knew and loved our mages, and so I was desperate for this little glimpse of how the duo of Aaron and Kai became […]
5 stars — I don’t know if these books are getting better, or I’m just more invested because I’m in love with all the characters, or all of the above??? But seriously, I’m having SO MUCH FUN!!! Tori just keeps surprising me. She’s a very complex character in some ways — she’s stubborn, brash, reckless…but […]
5 stars — DUDES!!! It got even better!!! I think part of that is that I was already introduced to the characters and the world, and definitely invested. But part of it is the twists and turns and surprises in the story. Cris Dukehart was amazing at narration as always. Honestly, I need to find […]
4.5 stars — This was just everything I was looking for and more. It did start off a wee bit slow for me, but once I got sucked in I honestly had a hard time putting it down. I don’t read a lot of urban fantasy, but I can definitely see reading a lot more […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — LOVED IT! It was different and refreshing…the characters developed feelings for each along the way instead of insta-love (which I don’t mind, but it’s nice to have a balance). And the paranormal world was well-built and interesting! I especially love that the ending wasn’t a cliffhanger, but a solid ending […]
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 — I’m so fucking confused you guys. I *know*, just *know* I haven’t read this book. But as I read it, I felt like I had read it. SO MANY THINGS felt familiar…but only vaguely. But I ALWAYS REVIEW EVERYTHING on Goodreads, and there’s nothing there. Not to mention, I distinctly remember only […]
ON REREAD: 3.5 stars — This review is going to be a bit all over the place…sorry. I got the updated version of this book (after contacting Amazon and getting them to force it), and so was expecting a cleaner version. But it was not. This book was most certainly not proofed/line edited, b/c it […]
ON REREREAD: 4.5 stars — It’s been a LONG time since I’ve read this one, and I’m finally coming back to finish the series!! Hopefully. I will admit that it didn’t suck me in quite as much as it did the first time. I’m not sure if it’s the mood I’m in, b/c it seems […]
