This Cursed Light | 
pickThis Vicious Grace was so good that its sequel had a good chance to disappoint, and it did. As Alessa and Dante turn their attention to saving the world, the emotional richness and plot urgency of the first book is overwhelmed by a lack of communication trope and surface-level flirtations for almost every side character. The end, however, goes a long way toward redeeming the whole. No spoilery details, but it did make me cry, in a good way. 🥲
I just got this email from B&N telling me that they‘re awaiting stock on this book I just preordered recently. The release date for this book is 10/31/23 but they‘re not going to send it to me until 12/8/23 so basically, they‘re telling me that they don‘t have it in stock. They probably won‘t have it in stock by Oct so I‘ll have to wait until Dec for my book. I‘m surprised that there‘s been a delay but I don‘t usually read new releases right away.
