Just dumping all my lists for October in one post, since I have no clue when and how else I'll be able to post (or read).

This was a fun, quick book, and I enjoyed the Hunger Games-esque competition - the addition of them living in the house together was a fun touch, though I did expect the tension of that to last longer.
The last half I read very quickly, and I‘m glad the second book is out, so I don‘t have to wait too long to see what happens next!
My book haul from the Fall into Books Fest. I was really good. I swear!
pickLeo and Grim begrudgingly go on a quest together to remove a curse that binds them together. This was such an incredibly fun read! Adventure around every turn of the page. I wound up reading through the climax twice before finishing the book to take it all in again. #LGBTQIA #MusicMagic #Fantasy

I am discovering the fact that I enjoy T. Kingfisher‘s writing immensely. I loved “Swordheart”, and it‘s been entirely too long since I have read any of her other books. I will absolutely be continuing this series and look forward to immersing myself into this world again.
I love fantasy. But I have a very strong distaste for smarmy, poorly written romance. Yet here I am, all sucked into a romantsy series. Because vampire hunger games! I mean I was 70% in before I had to encounter “the rigid length of his desire”. So I have hardly rolled my eyes at all. Great character development makes all the difference.
pickI hadn't intended to pick up this series, but I stumbled across secondhand copies at a great price and decided to give them a try.
Yes, this is a silly, spicy romantasy where some plot points are glossed over rather than being fully explained, but if you can just fully suspend your disbelief and allow yourself to go along for the ride, it can be rollicking good time.
