Last book done!! I actually really enjoyed this one. An interesting concept beautifully written.

Due to toothache and a dentist visit I've revised my last book of the year choice.
Why do some books hit right? I dunno, but this one hit the right notes for me 🎶 Was it long? Yep - but I was ready for it and I was intrigued enough to settle in and enjoy the ride. It does feel like YA and I am not complaining; it had humor and teenspeak (hey I am old) and sex and crushes and twists and turns and magic with ambiguous good vs evil and I enjoyed it very much. #ToB2025 #Dec2024 Book119

Thanks so much Barbara! A perfect choice that I wouldn't have got myself as have not really seen it anywhere, but that I am very keen to read! Merry Christmas and thanks again! And thanks again Chelle for organising us! @BarbaraBB @MaleficentBookDragon
This book was a little too long and frankly I was glad to get to the end. I enjoyed a lot of it but I definitely prefer Link‘s short stories. Overall a good story and well written, but it did not need to be this long! 😆 #TOB2025
I haven‘t had nearly the reading time I want these days, but I‘m slowly making my way through this very long book. Although I really like Link‘s writing so I‘m enjoying it. #TOB2025
I am looking forward to this the more I hear that people didn‘t like it. Not sure why 🤷🏻♀️ Hope this approach works in my favor: Tempered Affinity? #ToBShortList

I am very glad I did not figure out what was going on until the reveal - I'm even more relieved this was not a 'the husband did it' plot.
I really admire the book for presenting the doubt in motherhood, and a character who is not shamed for deciding that motherhood and marriage were not right for her only after having tried it. 1/?
