Much less than I had hoped, but maybe next month will be better! I think my issue is that my reading schedule fluctuates with my mental health, so that's probably why I'm not finishing a lot of books lol.

Started this one today, and it's already starting out great! I love that they're already adding new spells and bits of lore.

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 Really good! This might be one of the first times I've actually enjoyed a love corner in a story. The magic system in these is always so intriguing, and I loved learning more about secret names.

🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 REALLY GOOD! I loved the ending. Rick has a way of connecting to the reader through his story, and it makes me want to learn Egyptian magic. The only reason it's not 5 stars is because of the reading slump it gave me and a few complaints with the storytelling. Overall wonderful and I can't wait to start the next book!

Finally doing #bookspinbingo for the first time! I'm a slow reader, so I'll probably keep this bingo board for a few more months after this. (Tagged is my current read)

How have you been finding the books so far? Excited to read the final book?

I haven't enjoyed this series as much as others. I've been finding the characters frustrating and the romances are questionable

Mehso-so

I'm not sure I'll carry on with this series, I'm finding it incredibly boring and I'm losing patience with the characters.

The world is ending in 5 days and there's no urgency. The MCs go off to do non related things. It's so frustrating especially when other RR books have that urgency, that tension, and danger.

⬇️

PuddleJumper Onto the other reason why I'm potentially done with this series. The romance. Carter has become obsessed with Zia, a girl he met once, and has some white knight type fantasy going on.

Sadie, who is 12, has a crush on a 16 year old and a 5000 year old god. Ok. What isn't ok is they like her back and they want to pursue a relationship with her. The 12 year old child.

PuddleJumper I don't know if I want to commit anymore time to this series especially when I've got other books I want to read.

5feet.of.fury Ugh 12 is not appropriate for any age gap, 4 years or 4000. That‘s very icky 2mo
BookmarkTavern The main reason I made it through this series was that the audiobook narrators are fantastic. But they do sound like adults, so the romances didn‘t really register as icky as they are until I finished the books, and actually thought about them. 😅 (edited) 2mo
PuddleJumper @BookmarkTavern The audiobooks have been helping loads, I don't think I would have finished it if I was reading. I don't know why he made them so young, they come across as older anyway! 2mo

I think I disassociated when reading the last book because WTF is this Anubis stuff?

Sadie is 12!

BookmarkTavern Yeah, that always sat really badly with me. 2mo
