Queen Reviews

  This was another book in the series that was interesting from the first page to the last. I didn't get this far in my original jaunt down this series so getting to this book and the last few pages had me SHOOK! I was not prepared nor was I in anyway ready! I was not happy when the narrator said the book was over. Can we just not end books like this? I'm invested and two seconds away from starting the next one because what even just happened?! I am so upset and also very on edge. Like it feels like everything is beginning to happen so quickly. There is everything going on with the sister, the wolves, the witches, the demons, the prophecy...my goodness!! It all feels related yet unrelated at the same time. Also shout out to the Gnomes for being amazing characters that I absolutely love getting the opportunity to revisit. The mage counsel isn't hated enough and I need there to be a support group for those of us out there who want to take them down. Anyway, the story was good...

 This is year is more than halfway over! I can't believe it! Pretty soon it is going to be hoodie and holiday season. I can't wait! I am nearly done with my book challenge and I am so proud of myself. For some reason these last few months have been slow on the book reading front for me. I am tracking my lowest book reads for the month. I am definitely going to have to adopt the whole DNF if you aren't vibing with it rule. Some of these I definitely try to push through so I can finish the book. I am not the biggest fan of stopping a book once I've started it. However, I also think it has to do with me being a huge mood reader. I think my mood has been changing while I've been reading. Which is crazy! However, this month, I was able to finish 7 books! Let's take a look at them and them jump into the superlatives!                Favorite Character  : Selene (Bedeviled) - I can't express how much I absolutely love Selene! She didn't let her ...

  This was an interesting read. I did not know where it was going to take me. I can tell you, one thousand percent, it took me to the dark side and asked me if I liked it. Whew this one was made for the monster loving readers. The readers who ask, why can't the FMC be just as dark if not darker than the leading male characters. How scary will I like this. Yeah, we went there with this one. I really liked how it felt like a slasher from the early 2000's while I was reading it. Then when everything was revealed, I was a little surprised but at the same time, I wasn't. We knew something was up with Githany from the moment she tells us the story of her childhood. Then to get the reveal, it was kinda an ah hah moment. It was a dark moment but it definitely made sense. It was kinda surprising that no one else put 2 and 2 together honestly.  The spice in this book was wild. It was going from almost the beginning when we met the guys til the end. This one will definitely test some ...

 This book was a little slow. It felt like an interlude. Like this is just the build up to more. I almost feel like this could have been a cliff note to us going into the next book honestly. I don't know. I know that there was a lot of growth that happened with some of the characters. Mainly with Kingston and Sunday. They really needed to repair the relationship that was so badly damaged. Once they did it seemed like they were locked in. Of course now, all of the guys are pretty much locked in minus one. I don't think I even have to mention which one. We also get a little bit more into what is going on behind the scenes. Who Caleb is working with/for and how all the adults who are in the know have interacted with Sunday. I will say that I am very interested in seeing where things go from here. The irrational fear of that one thing happening and all the precautions that everyone takes, only for it to actually happen was nearly comical. Then the betrayal that happened was actuall...

This book picks up from the beginning again when the girls initially get split up. We get to see what happens to at least three of them from this one characters POV. I liked it but definitely not as much as the first one. I will say that this one was way more emotional than the first one. Stephanie had a lot more trauma to deal with than Kate and watching her have to deal with it in a situation where she can barely speak with the others she meets was interesting. It was a struggle and I really felt for her. Luckily, even with the speech barrier, they were still able to understand her for the most part. I think one thing that is emphasized in this story is that, emotions are something that can be conveyed without words. Someone who is receptive can pick up on something that is going on with others even if they don't speak the same language. This idea is something that really resonates with me and is something that I wish others would be more accepting to. Though there is definitely ...

  This was a good read! We are still slow burning over here because there hasn't really been any spice but the story has been good. Sage, discovers some really interesting truths when she decides to go and save her brother. There is still so much to be revealed. I admit there were parts where the book was a little slow but overall it all seemed to serve a purpose. I am very much interested in seeing how things are going to progress for everyone involved. Of course I have my theories and things that I think will happen and to who. There is also a lot I can't say due to trying to keep this as spoiler free as I can. With that being said though, I do believe that the King is going to make things interesting once Sage does finally meet him. With the advisor saying that he is a friend, I think that it will make the other reveals that we are waiting for that much more interesting. Von, the man that you are. I can't wait for more on him! I did almost shed a tear while reading this ...
