Queen Reviews

Driving back into this series and I liked Lily and Verakko!! It almost felt like a mini dynamic switch with Lily being the one who knew how to survive and Verakko being the muscle! I liked that we got to see a new city and a different type of Clecanians. Of course I'm still living this matriarchal society as well. Lily had me living her until close to the end of the book. I kinda got frustrated with her and felt like there was no way for poor Verakko to win. Though, I'm glad everything did end up working out.  The spice in this book was good. I liked their chemistry so the spice worked. I'd give it a 3 out of 5. Overall, I enjoyed this book more than the second one and I can't wait to continue this series! I was also happy to see that one of the characters we met back in book 1 made an appearance and will later have his own book!! I felt a little sad for him for a second there until I confirmed. Can't wait for more in this series!!

 I finally decided to finish Penny and Sebastians story. It was a good story and getting to see Sebastian be vunerable while dealing with the death of his father was good. It's not usual that you see a MMC be vulnerable. However, that's the only praise I have for him. He was childish for most of the other things dealing with Penny. He definitely did not grovel enough for me after the stuff that he put her through. I would have been perfectly fine if this book was a little longer just to see him earn Penny back. She gave in a little too quickly for me. Though I was glad to see that they got married and he made a way for them to be together. The whole controversy behind what happened with the former King, the cousin and everything was very interesting. I am looking forward to the next book in this series! I was able to get the deluxe edition that has both book 1 and book 2 along with the art work. And man is that thing spicy! The art is hot!  The spice was there in this book. Ev...

 Another month down, another set of books read. I have been hitting the book jackpot lately and have been really enjoying the books that I have picked up! Of course last month you guys didn't get a wrap up but I will be doing it for you and posting it before I post this one. I already have just about everything made so I just have to post it. On top of that, I also have an update on where I am with my Goodreads challenge! So far we are at 70 books read for this year! Which means we only have 30 more to go before I'm done with the challenge! So if I continue at my current pace, that would mean that by August, I should have this completed! Fingers crossed that I can keep up with at least 10 books a month. Well with that being said, let's get a recap of the books that I have read this month and then I will move on to the superlatives! Happy reading!! Favorite Character:   Shiloh (WITSEC)-   I love when the FMC can hold her own! Shiloh is definitely one of those characters wh...

  So I have some thoughts. Before I started this book I read some of the reviews and comments on it and there were two things that were prevalent when I went through the bad ones. Mainly that the FMC was a push over and the other being that they felt like she was groomed by the older MMC. So here are my takes on that. I do think that she was a push over. Frankie never really had the nerve to stand up to Fausto and stick to her guns. When people talk about being dickmatized, this is what they mean. I mean this man literally did her wrong more than once, he admits it but she doesn't make him earn her. She is constantly trying to escape even though it seems like not only a hopeless endeavor but also one that doesn't seem smart. So I will say for that part she was annoying. Then we get to the part where she is groomed. Now I don't believe that she is. She's already sexually active and is out here living her best life prior to meeting Fausto. Now if she was a virgin and he t...

  Well this was better than I thought it was going to be! Livia did get on my nerves a little in the beginning. She admits to convincing herself that what she knew to be true wasn't and went along with the group instead of believing in herself. Although I will say that she was young when things initially happened so I did give her a pass. I liked getting to met the crew and the amazing world that is the Ever. The vibes in this book was definitely heavy on the pirates and I really loved that. It felt refreshing from what I have been reading. The way I want to get more into this world should be studied. The many different characters, their relationships and everything is very well set up in this book. The power system and everything else is pretty dang interesting as well. I am looking forward to what is about to happen in book two. I'm hoping that we get Livia embracing more of her dark side and empowering herself more since she is in a tricky situation. It's going to be int...

Back at it again with this author and another alien series. I really liked this one too! The complex nature of how the relationship between Azur and Gemma started really let us have room for them to grown. It was very fortunate that they didn't have it in them to continue on the hatred that they felt and allowed themselves to see Gemma as she actually was and not how she was portrayed. I think that's a big theme in this book. Both Azur and Gemma had to overcome prejudice against the other for their relationship to work. Of course being blood mates definitely helped in that aspect.  The spice in this book was really good. It was built up very nicely and once they started it was on and popping. 4 out of 5 on the spice scale. Overall I enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to reading more in this series!! I would recommend this series for my alien/monster loving ladies!
