Rating: ★★★ Release Date: Feb. 5, 2019 I wanted to mention that although this book is technically book 1 of the Courting Darkness Duology it could easily be considered book 4 of the His Fair Assassins. Many of the characters in this were in the original trilogy, so I would highly recommend reading those first.... Continue Reading →
Release date: February 5, 2019. Published by St. Martin's Press. The link to the author's blog: Aristotle at Afternoon Tea. Rating: ★★★★ Disclaimer: I know very little about eating disorders.

Vasya's journey comes to an end, but I wish there were more. A satisfying ending was reached, but with some of the things revealed in this book, there is so much more that could be explored with the characters and the world. The world building is my favorite thing in this series, and it was... Continue Reading →

Gillian being kidnapped again and Tybalt taking off didn’t sound appealing. The plot tied things together and brought issues to light in such a good way despite the... Continue Reading →
This is my favorite book by Juliette Cross. It was much better than I thought it would be. I love angels and demons stories. Anya was an angel on a mission to find the archangel Uriel. She couldn't do it alone. She was paired with an unlikely ally, the demon Dommiel. They were very different... Continue Reading →

Court Icecastle grew up privileged but became a criminal and escaped from Vorkter Prison. Mykal Kickfall is a young man who believes in love from the... Continue Reading →

It took a while for me to get into it and to get to the satisfying ending. The first quarter of the book was one action scene after another. It took... Continue Reading →
