This one kicked off with an AWESOME start! Actually, if I had been in a store and picked this book up, I would have bought it immediately just based on the first page. It’s one of the best first paragraphs I’ve read in a very long time! The world building was one of my favorite parts of this novel. Sophie Jordan did a fabulous job of making everything sound legitimate and convincing! And the best part? There was a year […]

I thoroughly enjoyed diving back into this world! It’s a cute fluffy read with the perfect dose of paranormal. It was cool to see things from Laila’s point of view as well as Addie’s.
