Daughter of No World's - Review

Image
 This book was probably better than I thought it was going to be. I really enjoyed the characters and the world that was built. It was very light on the romance but it definitely managed to shine through when needed. I also would like to add that it did feel like it kind of dragged at certain points in the story and I would have liked if some things were sped up a little. Other than that though things were nice. The story of Max and how he came to be how he was, was tragic. Of course that's the truth of some of the "heroes" of wars. I am interested in seeing how things continue in the next book. Not only with Max, but definitely with Tisannah and the order. I also want to say that I listened to this in it's audiobook form and this was it was um...interesting. You could hear everything with this audio. I mean everything. Every breath that the voice actors took, any noise in their background, page turns and everything. I have been spoiled with these full cast audios and

Giving the Dragon Ice - Review

  This book was....different. It was definitely not what I thought it was going to be. Usually when there is a shifters they still have humanish babies. Well when they were discussing it in this book they definitely laid eggs. I wanted to delve further into this. I was very intrigued. Does the shifter lay the egg in dragon form? Does she stay in dragon form for the majority of the time until she has the egg? Is there multiple eggs or just one. I know that from reading the story that she definitely didn't stay in dragon form despite an egg growing in her body so I want to know the science behind that. Also there apparently is only one egg? So I guess it kinda follows human biology there? This was probably the most interesting part of this story for me. I was slightly obsessed with figuring this out. On the other hand the rest of the story had quite a few hic cups for me. Like the fact that they made the race thing weird. I know people hate discussing this but as someone who this aff

 This book definitely brought me back into this series! I enjoyed the dynamic between Cecily and Jeremy. They definitely seemed like they were very well matched here! You could feel their chemistry. I love it when you can actually tell that the characters really seem to belong together. Another thing that I have really, really liked about this series is how it is truly interconnected. Like things are happening simultaneously within the series. So we get to see events that we watched happen in other series through the eyes of these characters now that they are telling their story. I wish that more interconnected series were like these. For the most part other interconnected series are just that they are in the same world with characters that we've already met. So, we see the party, the initiation of the Heathens and everything through the eyes of Cecily and Jeremy. The only part that I wish that we got to see through them was the events that surrounded Creighton and Annika in the pr

Broken Whispers - Review

 This book was just what I needed to take me out of my reading funk! I burned through this book in what 2 days...maybe 1. This book was such an interesting read! It truly was almost like beauty and the beast! I would definitely say that this book was a little sweeter than I thought it was going to be. Mikhail and Bianca had such a beautiful story and just meshed together very well They both had scars that the two of them had to get over for the other. For Mikhail is was the scaring to his body and for Bianca it was the let down of no longer to do what she loved, ballet. I was also very glad that the FMC did not shy away from the life that the MMC led. Instead of trying to change him and make him better, she accepted that this is  the life that they are going to lead and she just needed to make sure that her man was taken care of and felt loved. I find myself kind of rebelling against the idea that these women are meant to change these men who have led these dark lives for all their liv

One Foot In the Grave - Review

This book has been a school on female badassery!! I mean Cat was out here serving it to whoever was out there trying to dish it. It was nice seeing her take on people without Bones. It gives us a solid view on her strength and how much of a threat her uniqueness is. While I loved their time apart, them getting back together was that much better! I loved seeing how much they both cared about each other and almost seemed to not miss a beat despite being apart for years. Knowing how strong they are apart just let's you know how much of a force they will be together! Not to mention that ending?! It almost feels like I'm reading this for the first time! I forgot that's how things became official!! This reread journey has been great and I can't wait to dive back into these two!! Its really hard to judge the spice in this audiobook and I can't remember what it was when I actually read it but at this moment I give it a 3. Overall I give this a 4 out of 5. I enjo

Captured Fate - Review

  I was so excited to get back into this series! Only for it to let me down. I was not excited about anything that was going on. This book just felt over all depressing. Like there are dark reads but then there is this. I think there is the darkness on top of the fact that things were paced very slowly that just ended up making this entire book feel like a snoozefest. There was nothing really memorable about what happened and almost all of the new characters that we end up meeting feel kind of expendable. The whole rinse wash and repeat feel of the events that are happening just wash things out. We do get to meet Griffin who we all thought was dead up until the last book but really....his return didn't make things in this book any more...exciting. You'd think that it would since he was such a polarizing character throughout the first few books in this series but alas....no. The fact that we are back with the Guardians again is just meh and even though there is another evil by t

Bewitched - Review

I can't believe I waited this long to indulge in this world!! I was thinking this was going to be more YA for some reason. Oh no...this is no where near that!! I really enjoyed Memnon and Selene. I loved their interaction with each other and how quirky Selene is. Of course I also loved how crazily obsessed Memnon is with Selene. I can't wait for them to get together even though Memnon is a tad on the crazy side. He's entirely part of the touch her and die gang. Like literally, he'd annihilate everyone. This should definitely be interesting to see why things are the way the are in the next book!! I have no negatives for this book.      The spice is giving slow burn. I am ready to explode. I have to give it a 3 because there was literally nothing between the characters but you feel it. You just know it's going to be amazing once it happens and man.....I can't wait. I give this book a 5 overall! I really loved it. The way the magic system is and the mys
