Literary magic
This is literary magic, quite literally - the paranormal world is run by those that wield the pens, and it’s glorious. As an avid reader and self conscious author, the notion that realms rise and fall by the purview of the creative is enticing, and giggle inducing. This is a fun ride, albeit a little bit silly.
First person, single POV, Cliffhanger, Slow burn RH, PNR.
MMMF
Rating = upper YA
Character age range = 30+
Pros:
- Inventive!
- Love The characters
- Book boyfriend.... who hasn’t done this??
Cons:
- Bit silly and tropey

I dig it
Good characters. Relatable star of the show. People in the Real do suck, she isn't wrong. I was hoping to see more of the curious bespectacled cat though.

I really wanted to like this one more than I did. The concept was so cool! Books and the characters within them all have their own realms, and then the characters start coming into our real world due to mysterious plot, 2 characters of which are super hot book boyfriends! I was excited at the concept, and while I know the author gave a disclaimer that the book didn't take itself too seriously, I just couldn't get really into it. It was a good cotton candy read--very quick--but the characters weren't fleshed out enough for me to really connect with anyone, the slow burn was slow enough that I didn't really feel the tension, and the plot wasn't compelling enough for me to read the next few, but I enjoyed my time with it for what it was.
Tropes/red flags: urban fantasy reverse harem; more than what she seems female meets 3 males (1 magical Bard, 1 pirate half-demon, 1 tiger shifter); slow burn--1 spontaneous female orgasm does not a fulfilling heat level 2 make; main character has issues with parents, both of which are out of the picture; mysterious plot and character backgrounds, none of which are revealed here; characters in peril and continued threats; discussions of what makes one "real"--2 of the mens are book boyfriends.
Heat rating: MEDIUM—no explicit descriptions and a lot of vague scenes; fades to black or quick paragraphs; more of a focus on feelings/emotions rather than body parts.

The main female character was flat. Which I find hilarious because the character complains about FMC's being flat in romance novels.
There is no build up or romance, just a lot of mentions about how hot and attractive the men are.
