Heart Attack Avoided!

-
  

 This was just the book I needed to get me out of my slump!! This amazing and fantastical book was nearly perfect from start to finish. Though I had a mini heart attack at around the 80-85% mark. This is a spoiler free review so I'll let you go through that portion on your own.  Just be prepared, because I wasn't!! At first I thought this was going to be a slow burn,  which it kinda was but the characters waited until the perfect moment to cross that bridge. The beginning and I'll say middle of this book was pretty much perfect.  Great pacing, interesting characters,  great world building.  But then,  right around the middle things felt like they started to get a little bogged down. Like events were happening just to happen. Nothing was Potosi the story and i was starting to slow down on my enjoyment since it was starting to get not as interesting. Things pick up a little by the end portion but got a little.... crazy. Like idk if it was good or bad kinda crazy. If the end of this book was condensed and cleaned up a little bit this easily could have been a 5 star read.  Finnie and Frey are a great couple and I loved their story. 
      The spice was good. So here's the thing. The anticipation and intensity was built perfectly and the moment it finally caught fire was epic but every moment after was kinda glazed over. Considering Frey and Finnie were going at it like rabbits, you'd think we'd have had more times where the author got a little more graphic but alas she didn't. I wanted that so bad because the emotion between the two of them and the connection that she builds with the reader is great and every moment should have been enjoyable. Don't get me wrong she goes describe some of their interactions just not as indepth as some other scenes I've read. I give the spice in this book a 4 out of 5. Overall story was a 4 it of 5. Lose the fluff and this was easily a 5 star read. I'm definitely going to read more in this series because this world is so interesting that I'm hooked!! I'd definitely recommend this book to others!!

Am I A Furry?

   I finally decided to take the plunge and start this series. This book was really good and I felt so much for Elise. She has so much happening and to see her experience moments of pure happiness was the most rewarding part of this book. As for the men, whew, I really want to continue this series just to see how she is able to resolve the fact that two of the men are mortal enemies. How are they going to come to terms with each other? They are mortal enemies and their families have hated each other for generations!! The others I can see getting along just because but generational enemies?!?!?! That right there is enough to make me want to finish the series. There are so many things that are thrown in here that I'm like, GIVE ME MORE!! I have to know what's going on! The principle, what's his deal because I just feel like he's involved some how. Felix Oscura, who does he want dead enough to involve Ryder? Who is the King? Is it Cindy Lou? Is the name there t

   We are here again with another End of the Month Wrap Up. It's crazy to say that I can't believe it again but we have burned through this month in a blink. I have gone on a trip and come back and here we are, at the end of the month once again!! I didn't do as much reading as I wanted to since I fell into a slump during the middle of the month. Still all of the books that I read were interesting in their own way. So let's see where all these books fell this month!       Favorite Character:   Avery- Avery from Wonder Light is my selection as favorite character of the month!! I loved that she decided to take some time for herself and do something crazy. Sometimes doing something different can be just what we need to shock our systems and can reset us. Especially when we you go through something traumatic. I also loved her location choice! Most of the places that she went to in this book are places that I also visited. Her personality was almost exactly like

The Cliffiest of Cliff Hangers

    Whew,  I received this ARC for a honest review of this book. Let me just say that this was cruel and unusual punishment!! Like the title for this review says, the biggest cliff, in cliffhanger history ends this book.  The next page asks us to wait until next year for the next book.  I won't survive. I will spend the next week writing down theories of how this could continue.      The characters in this book are so memorable!! I love a snarky heroine and her dark hero. These two are actually a match made in... well hell? Darkness? I don't know but I can't wait to read more when the next book in this series drops. I definitely recommend this book!! The spice didn't come to the end but it was hot !! I give the spice 3 out of 5 simply because I wish there was more!! It was so good! Overall I'd rate this book 4 out of 5!! Great works building,  great characters, and plot. Everything is paced nicely and it definitely leaves you wanting more!!
