A new graphic novel added to a library in our consortium…sure I‘ll give it a try. The hold comes in and woah, no clue what this was about or the graphic (erotic!) content. This is a witch-burning, demon nightmare/crossover into real life full of sex, murder, sinning and judgement in 1600s England. I appreciated the use of two styles of illustrations, from the two creators. It really added dimension to the work.
I‘m not sure what I expected from this book other than a steamy demonic smut-fest and it delivered. This is such an interesting take on romantasy and I truly enjoyed every minute of it. I fell in love with demonic brothers and I have 0 shame about it, can‘t wait for the next in the series!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book started off with spice and I wasn't sure if I would like it due to the spicyness. I loved Ash and his brothers (all demons from Hell) and Eva. Ash falls for Eva as she is a musician and she can see him through a curse that makes him ugly. The romance between Ash & Eva is also wonderful & surprisingly (given how unfeeling demons are supposed to be in this world) heartfelt & emotional.
This book was fun, spicy and enjoyable.
Book 22.
#hailthebail @dabbe @tpixie this is Christopher Moore‘s first published novel. I really enjoyed his A Dirty Job and its sequel, Secondhand Souls. His writing has improved tremendously since this was published. I really wanted to like this book and I listened to 40% of it. But in the end, I just didn‘t want to waste my time anymore. #betterbooksahead
Well. That happened quickly! That was just three reading sessions. It really is more of a mood than a plot, and that leaves it feeling somewhat... open ended. Kind of like waking up from a dream, all of a sudden. I enjoyed it!
#BookSpinBingo going well so far; faded ones aren't read yet, the dashed border is for finished books in free spaces, solid border and full opacity = finished books from the list. I hope for at least three bingos.
Very much enjoying this. It's less a plot than a mood, and I'm certain there are lots of people who violently hate it for that!
Not perhaps as classy as the typical glass of wine and a bubble bath pic, but it's been a long long day and my GORD is playing up, so fiery ginger beer, “You're Having A Giraffe“ (papaya, passionfruit and apricot scented) bubbles, hot water, and a book I've been meaning to read for ages.
@AmyG you are the BEST! What an absolutely lovely gift to come home to today ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I would totally be up for a Buddy read!!! Let me know what works for you - my email is pmcclure@rogers.com I‘m excited to read this ( I love books about libraries and magical creatures so much)
