This is one of those kinds of books that I enjoy while reading, but forget about entirely in a short amount of time. It’s not a story that will stick with me. I liked the way all three women’s stories tied together, as well as the history of the Weyward women and the magic they possessed. The connections were the driving point for this book, because there really wasn’t much else going on plot-wise. This book is more or less […]
Overall this book was just okay for me. It fell completely in the mediocre middle ground – okay characters, okay world (albeit a bit vague), okay plot. It doesn’t really stand out in the sea of Urban Fantasy and witch books, and there’s nothing really all that special about it; but I did enjoy it while I was listening! The main thing that stood out about this book for me was the owl and the forest setting. Other than that […]
This was good, not great. It was a quick read, and fairly entertaining, but it felt kind of juvenile to me. I feel like there was more focus on drama and romance than the puzzles we were promised. All of the boys felt like the exact same person (with extra jerkness to Grayson, maybe) and I was continuously having issues telling them apart. I was also confused about the love triangle (square??) and the fact that every freakin’ dude in […]
This was actually my second time reading this book, because to be honest I didn’t remember much of anything about it the first time I read it, oops. I did really enjoy it though, and I enjoyed it the second time through as well! I love the Italian setting and culture in this book – it made me SO HUNGRY!! Lmao! The world in this book is so atmospheric and magical. I really enjoyed the stories of the Wicked (princes […]
It’s not very often that I find a book that makes me literally laugh out loud, so I genuinely cherish Shelby as an author! The wit and humor that I loved so much from the first book was still present in this one, which makes me so happy! I do think that this suffered from a bit of Second Book Syndrome. I still enjoyed it, but it wasn’t quite as good as the first book. It felt like filler, to […]
I picked this up on a whim, and to be honest I went in expecting not to enjoy it very much. I ended up being surprised because while it wasn’t great, it was still a fairly decent read. It was pretty generic as far as high fantasy goes and doesn’t really stand out in the sea of fantasy. But Blake’s writing style was solid and the book was able to hold my interest. I enjoyed it for the most part […]
