Save the king, save the island. I’m actually quite shocked that I enjoyed this book! This was only the second reverse harem I’ve ever read in my life, lol. But I do think this was a good one for a beginner to the genre because it’s not in your face smutty (which I am not a fan of) and it’s still got a great story! This book was a very quick and easy (and fun!) read. There are no white […]
Holy. SHIT. Dude. This book. This is the kind of story I dream of finding every time I open a new book (and rarely find). This book GRABBED me from the very first page and never let go! I was hopelessly hooked, and I knew in the first handful of pages that this was going to be a 5 star read for me as well as a new favorite. And I was sooo not wrong! I fucking LOVED every single […]
“Survival is bravery, too.” I had sky high hopes for this book going in, and while it sadly didn’t meet my expectations, I did still enjoy it for the most part. It was actually quite hard for me to rate this book because I had such mixed feelings over it. While I adored certain aspects of this book, I found others to be rather dull and dragging. My absolute favorite thing about this book is how atmospheric it is! The […]
I had really high hopes for this one, but in the end I think my expectations were just too high. The ratings for this book are crazy high, and I was hoping to be blown away. Sadly, I felt pretty ‘meh’ about this book. I wanted SO badly to love this book. Baa, baa, black sheep. The concept is where this book really shines. It’s SO cool! The premise is wholly unique, and the atmosphere is inviting and uncanny. It’s […]
I saw that this book had a connection to Bone Houses, which I enjoyed a lot, so I was pretty excited to read it. Unfortunately, this one was absolutely nothing like Bone Houses. I wouldn’t even have known they were in the same world if I hadn’t seen it in the synopsis. (I have learned by now that Emily Lloyd-Jones books are very hit or miss for me; and like The Hearts We Sold, this one was also a miss.) They’re […]
This book was one of those that I enjoy while reading and then never think about it again. Mostly I just enjoyed the murder mystery aspect and the setting. The vibe of this book was by far my favorite part! I loved the bayou/backwoods southern gothic atmosphere of this book. The fiddle that brought ghosts back was awesome, too! I wish there had been a lot more of that, because those parts are where this book really shines. Sadly, the […]
