panI love a good gothic story. LOVE. But this is an endless and repetitive internal monologue. It's just the heroine saying the same damn thing over and over and over. To herself. Which means that not only is it boring, but the plot does not advance much. Pan.
pickLate to the party! 😬
I didn't find this the addictive, compulsive page turner everyone said it was. I found it VERY tedious in the middle but it picked up when Rhysand was introduced. I hope the rest of the series picks up as this was just a Beauty and the Beast retelling 🤣
I am, however, getting strange vibes from Tamlin... so I will finish the series and hope it grips me!

Spicy Book Bracket 2025
For January my spicy pick was Lights Out. It really feeds into the whole Masked Men of TikTok phase and was hilariously funny. I absolutely adored Josh, even if he is a bit crazy.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

pick4.5/5
When Clem is kidnapped by Captain Mariel and her crew of Merry Men, she assumes it's because reputation as a healer who is experimenting with more effective treatments, instead it's to make sure her guardian understands that consequences of healing anyone associated with the Sheriff of Nottingham.
I thought this was a fun re-imagining of Robin Hood focused on his granddaughter.
pickFirst in another series by Kelley Armstrong, A Stitch in Time is the story of Bronwyn, William and their home, Thorne Manor. After her aunt‘s death, Bronwyn returns after a long absence, but everything has changed for them both. An enthusiastic 4 ⭐️ pick with time travel, ghosts and rekindled love.
