I didn’t expect it to be a history book. I was bored until I knew what they were talking about. But it’s really impressive how George RR Martin created this whole world with so much detail.

I really enjoyed the book. Can’t wait for the next one. And see the villian accept the fact he’s in love with Evie.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.
One second she’s running down a hallway towards her bodyguard who she has a torrid past with the next you get multiple boring chapters about her wedding. Im tired of being disappointed by those stuff your kindle books.

Did not finish book. Stopped at 55%.
The book sounded good when I downloaded it and it seemed good when I started but it was just lacking. It just seems like a jumbled mess I can’t even tell who the bad guy is. There like so many people after them but they just keep popping up out of nowhere. I had enough when the chapter of the drugging came up. It was ridiculous especially from her pov.

It was a decent book. How it took her til the end of the book to realize who Captain stone was was beyond me. The story was missing something. And I was told this was a spicy books. LIES. This is white people spicy.

I’m not a Hugh fan of Colleen after all the stuff about her and the SA  and just how she’s a terrible person but my co worker was begging me to read this book and I was  good. Super dark too

It was the perfect story for Francesca. And of course there was some miscommunication group action. After reading the book now I’m really scared for how they are going to do her story in the tv show.

Another trashie alien romance book. I enjoyed having a plus size fmc this time but i personally didn’t enjoy how every five seconds she was like “cause im fat” “I can’t make this trip/ I would slow everyone down cause im fat” it felt borderline fat phobic.

It’s was hard to get into it. But after a while it started picking up. I thought I knew who Jack was early on but the plot twist was crazy. I love Thomas he reminds me of a more socially competent Sherlock Holmes.
