This was my choice for #TurnUptheBooks, but I've still decided to DNF it. I've already had my problems with volume one, but thought I'd give the second book a shot, too. Then it spent years on my TBR... Now I know why. So I kicked it off my list, volume three as well, and another book the same author as well. TBR cleaned out. I just couldn't get into the story at all, and felt bored from the start...

I wanted to do both books for the #Roll100 this month, but Wifey sabotaged that plan by gifting me some real big books - so still only one book in March 😅
For #TurnUptheBooks I got the song Thrine by Bring Me The Horizon. After a night thinking about something else than werewolves, I came along the tagged book (actually, while checking for the #Roll100 book). It was so fitting, I almost couldn't believe it.

I have 2 kittens now - 4 months old. They bring me calm and since I obviously can't move, I started a new book.
I read book 1 so long again I can't remember anything 🙈
I just finished Prince of Thorns last night and thinking I should pick another less darker book.
But this morning, I decided why not try read the first line, and this first page blows my mind. Beautiful and daunting. So, King of Thorns it is.
Beautiful and disgusting Grimdark gems of Necromancy and a truly vile main POV character, unfortunately weighed down by a very random and incohesive narration presentation and lackluster side characters. At times a very marvelous book, at other times came close to DNFing.

Leave me some comments let me know what you think ❤️
Middle books are always tricky, and King of Thorns didn‘t always hit the spot. There are two stories here and one worked better for me than the other. Jorg is still a fascinating character- he grows up a bit here and has something to lose but he is still as ruthless and bloody as ever. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Finished this yesterday and had a love hate relationship with this, still a gem but plenty of issues!! I‘ll be posting a review plus a YouTube link soon with tags. If you want a tag let me know, if you commented or showed interest in my reviews in the past you‘re getting one anyway 😘😇
Also, loving this app everybody is so upbeat and friendly !! Positive vibes from everyone y‘all are awesome !!
This necromancy stuff got me messed up I‘m over here at work thinking about them planting people in the ground to die slowly so that they ripen to become soldiers like wow lol that was creative
Gotta get to work now but I‘m leaving old Jorgy in a bit of a pickle you see he‘s off to see the fire mage but somethings stirring hope he‘ll be ok while I‘m gone!!
Weird book I breezed through part one but this one is kind of different :S I think I‘ll get it by the time I‘m through tho we‘ll see. Starting Dresden #5 after this 😇😇😇
Part two :) here we go!!
Usually I take a break in between books of a series but these are quick reads!! Maybe finished by tomorrow?
Also I‘ll be posting my review for prince of Thorns either today or tomorrow, hope y‘all get a chance to watch and enjoy :)
Book two of The Broken Empire does not disappoint! Jorg is still ruthless but more mature, introspective. There‘s a mix of grit and gore with wit and tenderness which is fast making Lawrence a favorite of mine. Great, great writing. Coddin sums up best how I feel about Jorg — “I love you for no good reason, Jorg. You are a vicious bastard at the best of times... but I do love thee well” ⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️
Definitely liking this more than Prince of Thorns 🤷🏻♀️
That ending oh my gosh!!! I was not expecting that betrayal, I wasn‘t expecting the battle to go down like that. Oh my gosh. So I love that Jorg is growing in terms of how he feels towards others, he is realizing that people might actual mean something to him and I like that. I enjoyed his interactions with Gog. And I swear on everything if something happens to Makin I will rage, I love that man. #fantasy
Started King of Thorns and while Jorg is older now he is still just as evil but he seems to think his evil ways through a lot clearer now, he isn‘t so quick to kill. I like seeing that growth but I love that he is still willing to kill, it‘s still dark and gory just how I like it haha.

Very good read, hard to follow at times but the writing is awesome.
Anyone out there is a fantasy trash? I love Fantasy Books so much!
Memory is all we are. Moments and feelings, captured in amber, strung on filaments of reason. Take a man‘s memories and you take all of him. Chip away a memory at a time and you destroy him as surely as if you hammered nail after nail through his skull.

A man is made of memories. It is all we are. Captured moments, the smell of a place, scenes played out time and again on a small stage. We are memories, strung on storylines—the tales we tell ourselves about ourselves, falling through our lives into tomorrow.
