Das Reich der sieben Hfe Dornen und Rosen: Roman | 
I haven‘t had much reading time, but I am enjoying this one while I wait on the books of The Crowns of Nyaxia series by Carissa Broadbent to arrive! So excited! It‘s the little things ❤️
Have you read the tagged? Are you a fan?!

Merry Christmas 🎄
pickKinda slow but overall good. I‘m interested enough to keep going in the series thanks to everyone saying the next books are better.
pickCan‘t believe I waited so long to read this!!! I haven‘t read a book this fast in a looonnngggg time and now I must have the second one!! If you love fantasy, this is a must read. It‘s been around for a long time but if you have been putting it off, don‘t wait! As I wait for book two to arrive I‘m trying to choose one of the books in the background. My reading bug is back! 📚
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
I started this on my Kindle awhile ago, and for some reason, it just didn‘t grab me right away - I must not have been in the mood for it. I know it‘s such a beloved series, so I thought I would give it another try with the dramatized adaptation audiobooks. I can understand the appeal and the potential - I imagine the rest of the books in the series will only get better now that the story is set up. 🎧
pickI finally jumped on the bandwagon and started this series. Full of tropes - unreasonably feisty heroine, good at hunting with a bow, pretty enough but fairly ordinary except for her feistiness, is sentenced to fairyland a la Beauty and the Beast. Incredibly hot male fairies find her irresistibly attractive. She has to save the fairy realm against impossible odds using cunning and bravery. The fresh writing made it all enjoyable. On to book 2!
Let‘s see if anyone can guess the book!
Feyre and Tamlin

This was an enjoyable book! Totally loved the “Beauty and the Beast” vibes.
The romance was heartwarming 💘
Believable characters, liked their flaws, and how they still had hope
A lot of tragedy is experienced by the characters, yet they still live with the pain and seek justice
I‘ll continue the series. I hear book two is the best of them.
1. A rainy or snowy day with blankets and candles
2. Well I had a bunch of nonfiction lined up but after today I started tagged to escape reality
Thanks @peaKnit @Eggs #wondrouswednesday
Started this #audiobook and got through three hours in my first sitting. Seems very Beauty and the Beast so far. I like it, waiting for some action to start soon.
pickI have this book on kindle, IRL and audio- and with my brain fog lifting (thanks to HRT) I decided to reread and see if i still enjoyed it - and I did. I love a Beauty and The Beast type story and really enjoyed the Fae and storyline. It made a huge difference having all three formats available.
pickI went in with low expectations because it is so popular. I was delightfully surprised by this book and I enjoyed the story and love interest. My only complaint would be the slower pacing in the beginning.
so-soI finally got around to reading this. While the book was really fun and I still am curious as to what happens next, I just felt like some things were ridiculous. The twist/big reveal was pretty obvious and a little bit too manipulated for the sake of making it make sense with everything that‘s happened. I did enjoy the second half a lot though, and I love how dark and gory it is. It‘s not a cute story, it‘s ugly in a good way. Also Nesta>>>>>>>
Margot Robbie has hinted that there might be a screen adaption of 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' coming our way.
Last year, she was spotted with the author of the series Sarah J. Maas after news of a previous TV series with Hulu fell through.
When asked if her production company is creating a series on the hugely popular books, Margot replied: "We all need that - the world needs that. I'll see what I can do."

so-soGreat read. Not my typical read. Bought entire series.looking forward to next book. 4 of 5 stars
"Be glad of your human heart, Feyre. Pity those who don't feel anything at all.”
pickWhile I loved the character building during this book, and how the actual story went, I liked the rest of the books in this series more. The first book felt, to me, more like a setup for the real story, than the actual story. On that note, I couldn't put this (or any other of this series) book down!
“It took me a long while to realize that Rhysand, whether he knew it or not, had effectively kept me from shattering completely.”

Audible had this available for free 🤷🏻♀️ and I need a book with a dragon 🐉 for the #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge2024 AND I am excited that my Converse 💙🌊 arrived AND I am excited that my shrimp 🦐 🌱 plant has a new flower 🌸 AND that my heart has some hope.
panThis put me over 10 books behind schedule because it took me so long to get into… I will finish the series and really give it a good shot
August is so late because I started ACOTAR at the beginning and it took me SO long to get into it. I am trusting the process though

Well, darnn. Since the state of Utah is banning this book, I guess I'll have to read it. I'm not big on YA romance but if the story is good enough I'll give it a try. I HATE banning books.
Statewide ban?? What country do we live in again?

1. I‘m a day late but have to piggyback on @dabbe answer with podcast for the purpose of wearing jammies, it‘s my usual WFH wear unless I have a dreaded Teams meeting!
2. Tagged but my library coworkers are suggesting I listen to the dramatized audio and they did not steer me wrong on the version of The Fourth Wing saga!
Thank you for the tags @TheSpineView and @Kshakal
I stepped out of Tamlin‘s arms and kissed him softly. Tomorrow— there would be tomorrow, and an eternity, to face what I had done, to face what I shredded into pieces inside myself while Under the Mountain. But for now . . . for today. . .
“Let‘s go home,” I said, and took his hand.

I finally got around to reorganizing one of my bookshelves. This one‘s in the living room so I can admire those cool dust jackets all the time 😍
bailedI was recommended this book and if im being honest, it really was not worth the read. The book is basic writing at best and it really has no substance.

pickI actually enjoyed reading this book a lot. I know there is a lot of hype for this book. I enjoyed the characters a lot. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.
pickThis had a Cinderella/Beauty and the Beast with Game of Thrones to close it out. Parts were a little slow, parts were page turners. Fantasy isn‘t my favorite genre, but good nonetheless.
pickI can't believe how much I have enjoyed this book. I've never really been big on reading fantasy fiction , but I loved this. I have book two lined up already.
pickHaven't read a fantasy book in ages and this one was the perfect choice to bring me back to the genre. I really enjoyed the characters and plot and how the book takes inspiration from so many other quality fantasy tales from the canon and yet is wonderfully fresh and exciting. Mass is a true wordsmith.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5/5 literally finished it in 1 day 😂
pick4.5/5 stars
Amazing book, read in 24 hours and loved every second !
pick4✨This is a reread for me so I already knew I would completely enjoy this read. Still not all in for the Tamlin and Feyre match, but love this story line. Ready to reread the rest of the series. #CatsofLitsy “Catrat”
Fantasy is not my genre, but the last couple of years, I‘ve picked a popular series to tackle and this year it‘s ACOTAR. I hope I love it as much as everyone says I will! 😂

pickbook 7 of 2024: I can kick myself for waiting so long to jump on the train and ride this ride! This book has everything- ALL THE FEELS! I loved the characters, except Nesta (yall can have her!) the world building, the plot. I feel like when she wrote this book, she wrote it with all of her readers in mind and there is alil bit of something for everyone.

There are those who seek me a lifetime but never we meet, And those I kiss but who trample me beneath ungrateful feet. At times I seem to favor the clever and the fair, But I bless all those who are brave enough to dare. By large, my ministrations are soft-handed and sweet, But scorned, I become a difficult beast to defeat. For though each of my strikes lands a powerful blow, When I kill, I do it slow …
pickI‘m still completely blown away that this book is such a quick read while being filled with so much detail. Feyre, Tamlin, Lucien and Rhysand all have a special place in my heart. I can‘t wait to read the next book in this series!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I spoiled myself for Mother‘s Day with a new cup from Dunkin and getting some books. My birthday is coming up Tuesday so I also got a bedroom corner bookshelf/stuffies home. Definitely will post when I receive that and get it set up. 🥰💛 Happy Mother‘s Day to all the lovely mothers out there! I hope it is filled with love, reading, and relaxation.
pick#ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024 I‘m not sure what I was expecting. It was more violent than I expected. The sacrifices made by the characters were interesting. And there were surprises about characters who became allies and their reasons for doing so. This is currently is free on Audible. The other books in this series are free until 5/31.

1. I can't do this anymore but in high school & college I was able to identify bones & their markings blindfolded. It all started when my Pre med & Forensic science teachers said they would give extra credit points to students who could be handed a bone while blindfolded and do it. I got so good at it, they wouldn't let me play anymore.
2. Tagged. All the fae in this book have unique magic.
@TheSpineView
so-soHmmm. I struggled with Feyre as the book progressed. She came across like a lovestruck dumb girl and it was difficult to like her because of it. Glad I kept reading, the ending has me excited for what is to come. 🤞🏻the series gets better
ACOTAR series enthusiasts, rejoice! 🏰🌹
