I adore historical fantasy with a touch of magic, dystopian worlds without overshadowing romance, and quirky Adamsesque quests.

Sky without Stars by Jessica Brody and Joanne Rendell.

I set out to read this a while back, and for some reason fell into something else. However, it has been on my mind a while, so I am jumping back into this story.

Kingdom of the Wicked | Kerri Maniscalco

Brilliant! As soon as I finished this book, I went straight to Amazon to look for the next in the series. I love the way each Prince of Hell was their namesake incarnate. As with most books, I did not find myself skipping paragraphs nor pages to advance the story. The ending was both expected and unexpected, as I thought I had it figured out, but was off just a bit. Can't wait for the second installment.

I suppose, after reading the blurb, I was expecting more magic, and it was a story more about short battles with different spirits/demons to obtain the objects needed to unlock the magic. Written in a "Gone Girl" alternating voice style, we do get a view point from the two main protagonists, Slate and Cadence, which lets you get to know each more indepthly. However the romance between the two is uncomfortable as she is ... continued in comments .

Neverending_booklist ...only 17 yet appears to have the emotional age of twelve (asking to sleep in her fathers bed after fighting one of the demon/spirits, for example?). Hopefully she matures a bit before the next installment - I do want to know what happens when magic is restored after all.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

⭐⭐⭐
What a good read for Halloween. A haunted house, a medium, a sceptic, and well developed characters for a quick, gothic read. There is a bit of romance, ok a tad more than a bit, but it is not over the top. While the ending felt rushed and a bit scattered,, it was still worth the read.

(I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review. Thanks to the publishers and Netgalley.)

The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware. I have heard wonderful things about this book. Have you read it? What did you think?

BooksCoffeeNurse @Neverending_booklist I really enjoyed this Ruth Ware. The Turn of the Key and The Woman in Cabin 10 are my two favorite books by her. I even read her newest book, One by One. But I like this one better. ☺️ 4y

I finished The Silent Patient last night, well 0500 because I could not put it down. I thought I had it figured out multiple times, and it wasn't until the last few chapters that I realized I had been completely off base each time. Definitely worth a read.

Vapid, spoiled rich girls abound, but a decent read if you are in the mood for something light.
