Welcome to Litsy!

Page one hooked me. Amazing book - ALL the stars. Found family, adventure, love and werewolves - who could ask for more.

I have a busy month. Hoping I get all my challenges in!

My low expectations going in (based on another book by the same author) were not warranted. I was advised to give this book a try and I'm glad I did. This fake dating story in which a dare turns into a genuine connection is adorable and heartfelt while also touching on some tough family topics. I enjoyed this quite a bit. Also, loving the maybe demisexual/romantic rep. #LGBTQIA #FakeDating

I wanted 2 like this more than I did but something was missing. There were so many mentions of Inspector Yuan (a character Claudia was obsessed w/) that at 1 point I wondered if this was going to turn into a weird hallucination/it‘s all in her head where the whole thing was actually a book or movie Claudia was reading &thought she was in.

I enjoyed the parts w/Claudia‘s family &wonder if this would be more successful if the mystery was taken out.

Very cute. The bickering of the nurse and the naiverty of Rambo annoyed me quite a bit. But the journey they went on made it a lot better. I loved the Pinocchio references, especially the part about consience. I wouldn't read the book again very soon, but I had a nice time. I loved the ace representation!

With all the right premises of a secret wizarding society based in an antient library, the book turned to be a disappointment. Very little happens in terms of plot development, the characters are flat and the female ones are so stigmatic as if taken from some patriarchal encyclopedia of female heroines. And the sex scenes reek of dubious consent. Not sure I'm going to continue the series

It‘s possible this is the book that proves I never quite learned to read straight nonfiction without a narrative thread running through it. I went into this very interested, and at times I found myself captivated by the piece of history being revealed, but then I‘d struggle to focus, or find myself wondering about the author, or about bias in the writing.
