bailedThis will probably be an unpopular opinion, but I sadly wasn‘t a big fan of this book. I loved the world and I really tried to love the characters and plot, but I just found myself disappointed. I found Seraphine annoying and a lot of the side characters were generic. The relationship between Ransom and Seraphine was more lustful versus love, felt underdeveloped, and there was even a part that made me cringe. Wish this one could have been better!

My #BOTM choice came today. I am not sure if I will get to it this month. So much to read this month. 🖤🎃🧡📖🖤
Another month goes by without my reading any of the #BOTM books I already have, but that never stops me from ordering more!
These are my October picks, both of which seem right up my alley! And hopefully will also be good fall reads 🍂
