Review: A Marvellous Light

A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske My rating: 4 of 5 stars Trigger/Content Warnings: - murder - off page suicide - violence - torture via curse - loss of will and bodily autonomy via magic This was a very charming, magical murder mystery. And I didn't guess the main antagonists, so extra points for that. However, my favorite part was the slow-burn romance. I know some people - *cough* my book bestie *cough* - can't stand them, and some of them can feel too long or too forced; but this one felt as natural as breathing. I like that they were trudging along with their quest and their walls, and one day- and they don't know when or how it happened - they looked at each other and thought it'd be nice to make each other smile every day for the rest of their lives.

Review: Rent: Paid in Full

Rent: Paid in Full by Jesse H. Reign My rating: 4 of 5 stars Wasn't sure that I'd rate it this highly, given that Ryan was exasperating for a cool 40% of it, but Miller was absolutely shameless, and that saved it for me. Miller took one look at Ryan and decided he would give up every penny he owned for the chance to have him, and that's my fave kinda carrying on. View all my reviews

Review: Nothing to Hide

Nothing to Hide by Jenn Plummer My rating: 1 of 5 stars All filler, no substance. And Mia was not needed. This same story could have been told without her; she added nothing. View all my reviews

Review: The Entanglement of Rival Wizards

The Entanglement of Rival Wizards by Sara Raasch My rating: 5 of 5 stars Trigger/Content Warnings: - PTSD - mentions of torture/experimentation Came for the snarky rival wizards, stayed for the solid, 10/10 hurt-comfort, found-family romance. I want this book to live in my chest. View all my reviews

Review: Hunt the Villain

Hunt the Villain by Rina Kent My rating: 4 of 5 stars Trigger/Content Warnings: - violence - child abuse - homomisia More of a mafia romance than a dark romance this time around. What it lacked in darkness, it made up for in angst between these two muffins. Delicious. View all my reviews
