The Queen of Nothing by Holly Black
4.0
Solidly entertaining ending to a good trilogy. The characters that seemed completely despicable and inhuman became loved and understood. Black has a seriously good way of writing characterization arcs. A bit sappy and dramatic at times, but nonetheless am I happy to read and own this particular series.
What Lies Beyond the Veil by Harper L. Woods
3.0
It was a bit predictable, but the world building was nice. I will finish the rest of the series because I’m stubborn, but I’m hoping it all becomes less predictable and the writing tropes improve.
What Hunts Inside the Shadows by Harper L. Woods
3.0
Once I start a series, I have to finish. Good twists and tension. Writing still not my favorite, but I will finish what I start.
Blindsided by Amy Daws
3.0
I’m a sucker for a plus-size FMC, and add in the Scottish accent in my mind while reading made this quick romance read worthwhile. Predictable. Repetitive. Spicy. It was sappier than I enjoy, but I’m sure there’s many looking for just that in a book.
Tarnished Queen by Nicole Fox
3.0
I blame Instagram excerpts that sucker me into interesting sounding stories that are way more unreal and infuriatingly so. That said, I can’t DNF any book or series, so I was compelled to read the second. Overall, spicy and interesting character developments. Also, why are more and more FMCs redheads-ish? I’m here for it, but it’s a interesting trend I’m noticing.
What Lurks Between the Fates by Harper L. Woods
3.0
Agreeing with most other reviews, this book felt more like filler and a bit repetitive, especially in character dialogue. Regardless, I read it and am eagerly awaiting the final book release to see how all this wraps up (or doesn’t…)
The Maiden & The Unseen by Jeanette Rose, Alexis Rune
3.0
Hades and Persephone - basically a tale as old as time. Honestly, way too spicy for my taste with this storyline. I wish characters were more developed and the actually plot storyline had more to it.
The Mistress & The Renowned: A Hades & Persephone Retelling by Jeanette Rose, Alexis Rune, Alexis Rune
4.0
Honestly, this book was significantly better than the first. I like spice, but the first book was more spice than anything else. The second book had actual character development, a more intricate plot, and a storyline that was very compelling. At this point, this is yet another series I am now waiting on a book release, and I’m not a patient person. February come sooner!!
Things I Wanted to Say, But Never Did by Monica Murphy
3.0
Meh. It was another book I read a clip of on Instagram and I refuse to DNF things. It wasn’t the best storyline, but the characterization was decent at points. Good read about trust and mistrust. Definitely too red flag heavy for some.
