DNF- Where the Dark Stands Still

DNF- Where the Dark Stands Still

This YA book has an amazing premise and I couldn’t wait to read it. However, as usual, I didn’t check beforehand to see if it was third or first person narrative. I struggle with third person so I didn’t finish this one. Liska has always believed that magic is a curse...

Review #509 I give this dark contemporary fantasy a 4.25/5 stars. It was less gruesome and murdery compared to the first book and much more relationship focused. Sometimes I had trouble with Lochlean’s internal thoughts since he was so damned poetic. It had two points...

DNF- Playing For Keeps

I really liked the opening chapter and Justin’s character but then the second chapter ruined it a bit. I’ve only read one hockey romance so far and would try more but since it’s obviously going to be a steamy book, why did the author skip over their first time? The...

DNF- The Star and the Strange Moon

I own both of Constance Sayers other books but this one felt like it had a different vibe. I didn’t get past chapter 3 so the inciting event hadn’t occurred yet when the film swallowed Gemma up. That premise is awesome but I wasn’t into the Hollywood vibe or recording...
