The Butcher of the Bay - Review

-

 




I really enjoyed this book! I devoured it in no time! The story of Illi and Odie is one that is likely to stick with me. I can't wait until I can read the second part of this book. I was hoping that the end of this book would have went a different way but this second part should be at least a little different than the first. Odette has had a really sucky life. Like I mean bad. I feel so bad for her before things even get crazy in the book. I couldn't believe the turn that things took and so quickly. I really thought that she would actually have a little bit more spine but I'm hoping that we will see more of that in the next book. Illi on the other hand, puts the morally dark in in this book. I mean he is out here killing and chopping people up. Then he sends their parts to a cannibal. At least he has a type of moral code. I definitely want to see how things go with his best friend. It does seem that he has turned on him and with the way that things are set up in this world, this could definitely end up going extremely bad for all the involved parties. 

The spice in this book was not there but it makes sense considering what happens to the characters in this book. So it definitely gets a 0 out of 5 for the spice. Overall, I definitely enjoyed this book and even though I was burning through the book, I didn't want it to end. I really loved the characters and I found the world that we've fallen into with Mounts Bay. I definitely would recommend this book to anyone who likes dark romance. Like you genuinely have to like dark romance or this book will definitely not be for you. I can't wait to start the second part of this story. It is going to be a firework show!

Tempt Me - Review

 The next series that I decided to take on in my re-read sessions was the Wolf Hotel series by KA Tucker. This series was one that I devoured when I originally read it so I wanted to see if it still hit the same as then! This first book definitely has taken advantage of the naive virgin trope and really let it go full tilt. We meet Abbi as she is going through one of the worst moments in her life. She just found out that her fiancé cheated on her. Of course she comes from a super religious background meaning that they feel like it's ok for the man to do this while she must remain chaste. I mean all the things that young adults get into are things that she was forbidden to do, whether it was drinking, partying or wearing and talking about certain things. Our girl is oblivious. So when she runs into the one and only Henry Wolf, who has done just about any and everything, she is intrigued and curious. I liked that the FMC wasn't someone who fell into her upbringing heavily and did...

Binder - ARC Review

Yall, I try not to be long winded when I do my reviews because I don't want to spoil you. Also I try to be a raving looney toon as well but this series is going to probably have the longest reviews I've written. When I say that I am head over heels for these characters, this world, the story. I truly am. Once again we are back in this world meeting so many new faces and some returning! I was so happy to see that Rogan was back! I knew it would throw an interesting wrench between Kara and Flynn and boy did it!! Rogan was just someone who was there briefly in the Prequel Breeder, but he was important to Kara. The fact that he disappeared after what happened in the prequel was investing to me and he always lingered in the back of my mind but never,  did I expect his return to be what it was!! I definitely hope we get a story on him! I just know he has an amazing story to tell!! Cal, is still a wild card for me. There are some people who have lived a long time in this series and Ca...

Bride of Brutal Hearts - ARC Review

 This book....whew. So, let me start with the things that I enjoyed. I liked the world set up. Even though things are heavily skewed in the favor of the vampires, there is still a lot of cool lore in this book. The Godstars and the craters, the magic system and runes, everything was laid out nicely for us. The way that the King of Dawn and Dusk were set up was also a nice different thing that what I was used to. Now, let's jump into some peeves. I don't really care for extreme power imbalances and this one is extreme. From the fact that Nessa starts out completely powerless to where she ends up in the end of the book. I could almost scream at how frustrating this is. I mean, the back and forth that she has in her mind where she is just all about sharing her body with them but also morally disliking them was low key exhausting. I felt for her but also girl what? Then everything that begins to unfold later one almost threw me for a loop. Like I don't know whether or not I lik...
