Oh, wow. *cries* That ending!!!
This book is so, so good.

Almost constant chills reading Book the Fourth. 😭💔

At the end of Book the Third. 🥲 Love these characters so much and very invested in how things are going to go from here!

This is just so good!! I'm loving how the history and fiction are mixing together, it's so hard to find a book of this type that gets that right!
And I know so little about this part of history, it's fascinating to read about.

Finished Book the First!! I'm so nervous for all the characters, but soo invested. Surpassing even my high expectations so far!

And I'm having so much fun listening along to all the songs mentioned!

Between Moor and Mountain was so beautiful - beautifully written, beautiful setting, and beautiful story. Definitely one of my favourites!

And after more than a year, I've finally finished the anthology! RTC, but I am blown away by how lovely a collection this was!

I nearly screamed when I saw the release announcement in my inbox this morning!! I don't think I can wait a single day to start reading it!! I had no idea one of my very favourite books was getting a sequel *heart eyes*

The Sound of Healing actually gave me chills. 😭

Awakened in Another War is in the Clean Fiction Cover Contest, and it's currently tying for 6th place!

Just want to put out an apology for all the reviews I'm supposed to be writing but haven't; and also all the books I was supposed to have read by now. I am VERY behind on my reading, and even more on reviewing. I WILL get to everything eventually. Also, I'm planning on slowly starting the process of updating/redoing all my old reviews, so until then please disregard any very old reviews you come across XD

Apparently I never marked this as currently reading? Anyway, I just hit the 75% mark, and I am very happy.
I said this with the last book, but I'm amazed how easily I can fall back into the series even though it's been two years, and even longer since the earlier books.
Half excited, half nervous to see how it wraps up and what else is going to happen in the series before it ends...

Pages of Grace is such a sweet, gentle, peaceful story. <3<3

Ended up accidentally taking a break from this but I'm back now and trying to finish before the Fingerprints in Frost blog tour starts next week.
I feel like The Lost History of Lavender Lockbourne captures the whole aesthetic of the anthology PERFECTLY. 😍

Happy new year and happy reading!

Thoroughly enjoyed Tollemache House!

My Heart Still Sings is so good! It kept me invested right to the end.

Act in the Living Present is such a beautiful story in so many ways. Katja's writing is always so very pretty and the themes in this were just lovely.

Awwwwwww... Reasons to Be Thankful is sooooo sweet!!!! Loved this one so much.

I still can't believe how brilliant and suspenseful a mystery And As She Talked is! *heart eyes*

Loved the themes of Melting-Pot Thanksgiving!

Release day today!! 🥳 There's a giveaway, too!

Just... wow.
Wow.
❤️❤️

Chapter 16 of Part 3 made me so happy! Finally things are looking up for some characters at least... I just hope it's not the calm before the storm. The ending of Part 3 has me nervous.
There's been so many unexpected changes in certain characters! I'm rather nervous to see how their ARCs will end... On the other hand, characters I was very skeptical of at first are now my favourites, so maybe there's still hope?

I'm a little late posting this, but registration for March KDWC is now open!! See this page for more details on what KDWC is and also for the link to the signup form: https://kingsdaughterswritingcamp.com
Camp gates open tomorrow (27th) so be sure to sign up soon!

Halfway through!
Very concerned for some of the characters... :O I thought I knew where some of this was going, but after all the twists and turns in Part 2, I have no idea whatsoever! This has me very much hooked, now that I finally understand who everyone is and what's going on (most of the time XD) Although, everything I thought I knew about the characters at the beginning of Part 2 I'm starting to question!

It's been about a year, maybe more, since I last read any of this. I never meant to take a break from it, but it just sort of happened. So picking up again. Reread or skimmed Part 1, and starting Part 2 over again. I had forgotten a lot of it! I think I enjoyed Part 1 even more the second time round. The writing is brilliant and there are some hilarious quotes. Looking forward to reading the rest at last!

Happy new year and happy reading in 2024!!

I don't usually mark rereads on GR, but I am on this one. Thank you to my wonderful friend Faith for this AMAZING buddy read! 😍😍

I wasn't planning on starting this today as I don't really have time to read this week! But you know how it is when you decide to read the acknowledgments and introduction and then just PEEK at the beginning...
But that prologue... wow. Wow...

Aw...poor poor Libby... And I have a horrible feeling it's still going to get worse... 😢
