pickI was not a fan of Aelin‘s character arc in this one (no spoilers) I just felt the book could go for shock factor without her STILL not sharing information. I liked Lorcan‘s and Lysandra‘s arcs! Overall one of the better books in the series. —- Book 19 of my 25 in 2025 I need a break from this series to digest. So I think I‘ll do a few mysteries next.

so-soAudio. I love Reynolds writing style. I just think I‘ve out grown his stories. They feel so specific to the teen years. Like this, a book about grief, while a great theme, is for teenagers bonding over tragedy in their lives. The ending points about the flower were beautiful.
pick(2003) A young magician works a spell far above his level of training to summon a demon for a plan of petty revenge. Things go downhill from there. For a book in which all the characters are dislikable except for the demon a little bit, it's surprisingly fun.
#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR #ACOWAR Book 3: Ch.9-11: boy things are heating up! The fight with the twins and Ianthe, I couldn‘t read fast enough. I can‘t believe Feyre was being slowly poisoned. And now Lucien and Feyre are in enemy territory and have to keep each other alive. How will they do against Lucien‘s horrible brothers? ⬇️
pickOkay, I'll admit that this one was a VERY soft pick for me, but hey, nostalgia FTW as this is also one that I have definite memories of reading back in the day 😂 But Trixie really got on my nerves in this one! She was so whiny and impatient and OBSESSED with the ghost fish. Like - maybe other people had other things they want to do?? Also you're on vacation, so you could just let go of the whole “we HAVE to earn money for charity!!!“ thing for ⬇

pickSoft pick. I liked the grey area characters and all the questions Meyer asks. What would you do in these situations? There were some scenes, that really made me think. Still, I do prefer Meyer's fairy tale retellings. Those drew me in a lot more.
pickThis book was filled with unbridled feminine rage and I was here for it for the most part. I will say though that it was a little emotionally exhausting by the end because that much rage is exhausting even when it's not your own.
