Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl Aurora Burning Aurora Rising Darkdawn DEV1AT3 Dark Age Iron Gold (audio) Darkest Hour Stain Sorcery of Thorns Muse of Nightmares Most of these were books I read last year, and the last two I actually read back in 2018. My book hangovers are few and far between, not many books blow me away anymore *sigh* What were the last books that gave you a hangover? Do you agree with any […]
I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much as I enjoyed The Hazel Wood, but I still loved stepping back into the dark and twisted world! I felt like this one was lacking in action, but thankfully it didn’t really lose my interest. Melissa’s prose is lyrical and draws you in, so that you want to continue even when there’s nothing happening. I’m not sure how I felt about the introduction of new characters.

Enemies to lovers MY FAVORITE TROPE IN THE […]
I absolutely LOVED this origin story of how the crazy yet endearing AIDAN that we know was born! It’s kinda creepy, because you can see where he’s coming from even as he makes horrific choices. He always has the best interest of the fleet in mind, but is murder justifiable for survival? It brings into question humanity, and the morality of weighing one life against many, or even one deemed more valuable. Chilling! Even though this was only 82 pages, […]
