bailedI was expecting to love this book but 200 pages in and I was just honestly bored. The writing was lovely, but it felt lovely in a way that I was kept at a distance. I didn't feel anything for the characters. With so many other books that I'm looking forward to, I've learned to DNF as an act of self-care 🤣 Love that so many do adore it tho.
So far this is giving Call Me By Your Name (but instead of a peach, a pear). 🍐

panI was really interested in this book, the magic system is unique and it's urban fantasy, but I struggled with the writing. It was hard to follow and juvenile.
Aside from two characters, the others were assholes with no personality that communicated via banter. I legit couldn't figure out who was talking sometimes, they were all the same.
There were also some things that rubbed me the wrong way including some mean jabs about weight.

This was a bit predictable, things that felt like the author were setting up to be a twist too early and easily identified. But overall I enjoyed this. There was some depth - but Charles and James having family drama and a sense of not being seen. I enjoyed the writing and really liked the ending.
pickThis is possibly my favourite of the series, I think. I love the fact that it's a trading of stories, and the way the tigers correct it. Still loved it on this reread!
