Ambrosia by C.N. Crawford
Did not finish book. Stopped at 49%.

To be honest... I liked the frothy premise of the first book that was basically "Fae King Bachelor for TV" and when we deviated, I lost interest. I realized at the 50% mark that I was making myself listen for completion and not for enjoyment.

Sea of Ruin by Pam Godwin
Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.

This one maybe was a bit too dark for me and pretty graphic... I may have to circle back around to it when I can handle it... or not.
