I‘m bailing at 17%. I don‘t know what it is, but I just cannot get into this one. It‘s not keeping my attention at all.

Fun romantic fantasy with monsters and mayhem.

Two thumbs up for both the author and for the narrator of the #audiobook.

Hooked_on_books This isn‘t my genre, but I do love the title/cover of this one. 3mo

Set in an alternative New York where monsters live, under a treaty, alongside humans; although there‘s a proud-boy-like group of monsters that want to return to the bad old days. Protagonist Kierse, a beautiful thief, and handsome beast Graves set out to steal a magical artifact but everyone has their own agenda. This book was a hoot from beginning to end. I also thought about calling it a romp, which it is. Definitely not for sheltered readers!

#WorstRead2024 @CSeydel

The Wren in the Holly Library - lovely cover, good idea, poor execution.

Need to think about which of the July/August books was worse than the other.

kspenmoll Love your emojis!!!! 3mo
julesG @kspenmoll @CSeydel came up with the template. But I fully endorse the idea. 😈 3mo
CSeydel It is a beautiful cover! Sorry the book sucked 👎🏻 3mo

I‘m fairly new to the fantasy genre so I wasn‘t expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. This one hooked me from the very beginning and it kept me entertained the whole way through. I definitely look forward to the next book. And this one is just gorgeous!

I love a good romantasy book, and this one is no exception. Monsters living amongst the humans with a Monster Treaty in place to prevent them from harming humans. But of course, not all of the monsters agree with this.
A woman discovers that she may be more than just a human. To find out more about herself, she teams up with a powerful monster to steal something for him.
The world building is so amazing, I can't wait for the rest of this series.

Apparently, I‘m one of the few readers who picked this up not thinking that I was getting a Six of Crows story. Honestly, while reading this one I kept thinking about Discovery of Witches (generally a better book), it definitely has that vibe. The world building is solid, there are some interesting characters, relationships could have been a little more fleshed out, the reasons for things a little more clear. Still, an entertaining read.

Yes, this book is super pretty but I‘m happy to report that so far, 10 chapters in, it‘s also very entertaining.

I am EXACTLY the type of person this book was marketed for! Pretty page edges....features a mysterious library... Do I know anything about it other than that? Nope! Did I immediately buy it anyway? YUP! 🙈

julesG I'd buy it, too 7mo
