#SpringSkies Day 27: There are #Secrets yet to be revealed in this final installment in the Daevabad trilogy. I am sure I will miss the characters once I am done.

There's a dream-like quality to this book and its prose that was just breathtaking, and also quite unsettling at many points. I think Link is really good, too, at writing young people in a way that feels alive and real. Would love to talk in depth about this book with someone smarter than me.

(2014) Seventh in the "Kate Daniels" urban fantasy series. This one brings together multiple threads and characters from the beginning of the series. I was a little impatient with the last one, but this one delivers the action, characters, and humor I like about the series.

#Pemberlittens #JaneAdjacent Ch.23-24: Boy, those Dunkirks are…passionate people. They are both set to do something rash. And Jane is determined to stop them. Too bad she runs into that jerk Buffington on the way. I can‘t believe he stands up for Livingston and lies about Jane‘s honour. He and Livingston can go to where the sun doesn‘t shine. How will she get out of this scrape she finds herself in?

Librarybelle I feel so bad for Jane - she‘s a doormat in every situation, and I was so angry how things got twisted to be her fault, or at least have escalated because of accusations that she‘s the one making “eyes” at the men. Ugh! 😑 11h
mcctrish OMG thank you for posting!!! I read this an hour ago and I have been dying to talk about it - these fucking men!!!!! I thought Melody was a pot stirrer! Lighthouse, Buffoon and Dunkirk are ridiculous- give them all guns and it ain‘t over until they are all dead 👏🏻👏🏻 11h

Librarybelle @mcctrish I know! May she glamour herself away from these odious people! 11h

willaful This section was so OTT I suspected some magic was deliberately inflaming people's passions. Nobody seems to have any core integrity! 11h
BarkingMadRead This was so frustrating, and Buffington continues to prove himself a total ass (edited) 11h
BarbaraJean @mcctrish Seriously!! Just when we were fed up with Melody's drama, here are plenty of other characters to outshine her!! And Buffington is insufferable!! This whole episode was maddening. I was so frustrated that I couldn't stop with these chapters and had to finish the book. 😂 11h
julieclair I absolutely couldn‘t believe it when they started saying those awful things about Jane! I wanted to scream! 9h

I really enjoyed this new release. It is not what you might expect, this is more historical fiction than anything else, with a romance, some magical realism and a mystery. Taking place in the Spanish Golden age, which is not a time period I read before. I don‘t like giving many details, as going in mostly blind to books always is the best experience for me. Just note this is not “Romantasy”, so don‘t go in expecting that. 4.5⭐️

Second book in the Crow Investigations series.

Cosy(?) #UrbanFantasy

I like the series, but it's more "casual listening". It's interesting, yet doesn't require all of my attention.

First four or five books in the series are free with Audible subscription.

Unpacked another book I‘ve wanted to reread—loved it the first time I read it but somehow never got around to continuing the series…which I surely need to do! I‘ve only ever heard great things about each of the books in the series so I‘m anticipating a great read. Now, to start again…

TheBookHippie This is forever leaving the library at school. Kids love it! 1d

Dreams Lie Beneath | Rebecca Ross

Pickpick

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.5/5)

I fell in love with Rebecca Ross‘ writing last year with “Divine Rivals”, and my recent read of “A River Enchanted” and “A Fire Endless” were no exceptions. “Dreams Lie Beneath” continued this trend, and I really enjoyed the writing, story, characters and world-building. Bonus points for a beautiful book map as well!
