If you’ve eve wondered what it’d be like to walk into your favorite book, then you’ll want to read this one! I haven’t laughed as much while reading a book in ages. It did take me a moment to get into the novel cause it is different than other books I’ve read. I love how […]
High school Darcy would’ve quite literally killed for a book like this when they were a teenager. To know they weren’t alone, that others in the world felt like they did, and that they weren’t abnormal or wrong would’ve been everything. Both girls come to the relationship with their own issues and traumas that are […]
Part one of the book is really the best of the novel and saved it from being a 2 star read. Part two feels too one-sided and resolved the tension in an unsatisfactory way. I loved everything about part one! The tension and pining between Aphrodite and Evander was everything my heart wanted. Plus, Aphrodite’s […]
To say I wasn’t grinning like a loon while reading this book would be a bold faced lie! I had such a fun time with this book not just in the banter between the characters, but the romance and the growth of each woman individually. Noah felt so relatable to me, as my confidence in […]
After finishing this one, I definitely rescind part of my criticism from my first review about being a bit grossed out by a male character taking over a female character. I still am not a fan and wished it was a Shepherd Queen instead of King, but knowing the Shepherd King felt like a father […]
Wow! Why did I not read this sooner because this book is so good?! I absolutely loved this first book in The Shepherd King series and have already started the second one. The world-building and magic system is probably my favorite part. The whole idea of Providence Cards that give the person magic, but each […]
I’m always surprised when authors can pack so much into such small books, and Nnedi Okorafor is no exception. The book opens with a bang right away of AO killing men at the market who were beating her because she has many augmentations. Something AO has dealt with her whole life is people looking at […]
Maybe I’m just not educated enough in art techniques or history to understand, but I wasn’t a fan of the drawings from this book. They weren’t necessarily bad, it was just nothing that blew me away. At times I was more frustrated than anything else trying to read the text with all the colors in […]
Wow! I’m shocked I hadn’t heard of this or read it before today because it’s right up my alley. I was pulled into all of this as soon as I read the “Fragment” prologue about god writing when he was happy and furious and then when he was really in a bad mood, he smashed […]
I definitely expected this to be a 4 or 5 star read as I usually rate Ashley Herring Blake’s books that high. But this one was a miss for me. I’m unsure what it was, whether it was the second-chance romance aspect or the holiday setting, but something was just not clicking. For the story […]
