The world building is excellent and executed well. I really loved most of the story. There was a point where I was SO angry at Rivelin. A sort of YOU DON'T EVEN DESERVE HER kind of angry. But here is the bad for me. I hated the way the spice was written. And I'm trying to decide if it was just the verbiage or if it was a disconnect issue. Either way, I won't be reading any more by this author. (Better than "so-so" but also not a "pick".)
My current in progress reads. Though to be fair, some have been languishing longer than the others. I'm also listening to The Simarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien through libro, and the top one is my Kindle, where I'm reading Forged by Magic by Jenna Wolfheart. This is why it takes me so long to finish a book. I'm a bit erratic. Who else is a mood reader?
Soft pick? Enjoyable enough, with a decent plot and enough narrative tension to keep it going, and appealing MMCs. Just…it seems better in conception than execution? If that makes sense. That said, it was a fun read, and I liked it well enough to finish it. Lots of romance tropes, with miscommunication, misinterpretation, saviour complexes, and enemies to friends to lovers to enemies to lovers (phew!). I‘d call it a fair cozy except for the spice.
Something light for lunchtime reading…so far it‘s cozy and fun. Not exactly grumpy/sunshine, more grumpy-slightly less grumpy? It should enjoyable…
I only read 2 of my picks last month but this month I am hoping to read more. Maybe I will even attempt the 2 picks from last month i didn't get to. I guess we shall see. 3 of these are parts of series so I may end up going down the rabbit hole to complete the series 🤔😂🤷♀️
