All Booked Up

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

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

The Dollmaker by Ashlynn Author My rating: 1 of 5 stars Trigger/Content Warnings: - provided by author Yeeeah, just go watch I Spit on Your Grave , either the '78 original or the 2010 remake and its sequels. View all my reviews

Don't Let the Forest In by C.G. Drews My rating: 5 of 5 stars 10/10 modern gothic horror-teenage angst mashup. This was so beautiful that it left an ache in my chest. View all my reviews

Kiss the Villain by Rina Kent My rating: 5 of 5 stars Trigger/Content Warnings: - rape - dubious consent - consentual non-consent - violence - psychopathy - sexual assault "You're my one and only, baby." I soft dnf'd this twice, but the third time is the charm because this was perfection, Rina. Dark, depraved, and delicious. I could fill this review with quotes from Kayden, because my man had a mouth on him, but I've already gotten the second book, so I'm off to read it. ;) View all my reviews

Psychopomp & Circumstance by Eden Royce My rating: 5 of 5 stars "In some circles, folk would have called Auntie a witch, but there is a different kind of magic that comes over a person when they are content in themselves. They are a silent presence, an impenetrable force that radiates so strongly it calls others." "Choice. It came down to that in the end, really. The choices we make, the chances we have. Some of us have too little to make a life yet still manage it somehow." This was a really charming story about a young woman freeing herself from an overbearing mother and finding herself by grieving the loss of her favorite aunt. Sometimes, we have to leave everything behind to find who we are, who we're meant to be. View all my reviews
