Hold the phone… I might dnf rn

LIFE LIFED SO HARD I FORGOT TO READ FUCK, MY STREAK. I didn’t even remember I was trying to read like wow….

Oh gosh the narrator for the FMC is doing a voice that’s like “young and quirky” and it’s grating.

I already don’t like Mische from the previous books and I had no plans to read this but I was scrolling on Libby and this was available so here I am.

Also I always called her “meesh” but apparently it’s “meesher” AND appaz it’s “ohRAYah” not “OhRYEah”. My life is a lie…

“the poison’s gone. The roses were never the cure. It was always you.”

Don’t piss me tf off. Like actually gtfo of my face!!

No because Mrs Helen you’re not going to pull one over me. The first four books in this world are seared into my soul, you think I’m not going to realise when you’re using the same formula??

This whole scene right here, if I close my eyes is it not Wilder and Thea in book 4??

No because whilst I literally feel nothing for Torj and Wren, they are the MMC‘s and this is THEIR story. Whilst every agonising minute of sitting through this has been worth it because I got to see Thea and Wilder get married, this is not their book they’ve had four books. So when you tell me that the MMC’s of this book secretly got married off page but T/W have an on page wedding. WTF is that? Like!!?

I’ve been cracking down on the reasons why I tend to not enjoy when bonds or mate connections are introduced into stories. And a big factor for that is as soon as the connection is revealed, we need to be reminded about it every single time. They never use each other’s names anymore and It’s always just “I need to go to my mate” or “my soul bonded is here” or “he told me through the bond” etc.

WAIT!!! Apart from my fantastic 4, Darian is carrying this book! I- I might love him, nobody panic!

And his back and forth with Torj was yummy AND the way the narrator voices him is doing something to me!!

This fmc is so delusional…

She literally betrayed some people FIRST and then is confused that they betrayed her back lmao. I laugh in hyena!

Whilst I’m still enjoying reading this, I’m starting to feel the fatigue of just how long this book is because there’s just so much of it. Every time I read a couple percentages I realise I still have so much more left like I still have 2 1/2 hours left of this.

And because there’s so much of it, she’s starting to annoy me a little…

You see, it’s moments like these that show just how young she is like he’s a decade older than her. She’s only 20 so of course she’s emo about all of this and it just makes me laugh cause I’m like yeah you had a fantasy of being with older men now you’re boo-hoo sobbing because he knows how to detach after intimacy. She feels like a little girl rn lmao

How many times is this fucking phone gonna fall out her hands or get misplaced as a plot device. I’m having a good time reading this, don’t start annoying me🫠

Hmm, idk how I feel about the fact that she was going to allow Devryk to be accused for assaulting her even though he rescued her and using that to blackmail him into getting what she wants. Like Spencer would have assaulted her and Dev was already falsely accused before and her first thought is “I’ll let everyone think you helping me was actually assault if you don’t make me your assistant…” I- uncomfy.

It took me half of the book to realise it’s duet narration. Mind u I’m fully present and paying attention…

Found the version I was looking for! Ignore the other note. As I said, obviously listening to the new full cast audio!

This is part of my series of reading books I had to read for school, for pleasure. (I’ve done Catcher in the rye and Frankenstein).

I’m also realising that I don’t remember the plot at all so this is basically a first time read cause wdym this is the plot of Dracula?

I was having a blast, excited that this was going to be good. The duet narration was giving and the male narrator was ion it for me. And then this chapter happened, mind u only chapter 6, and im disgusted. Is madam Kent really trying to pass THIS off as consensual non consent?

This reads like Ai slop and the narrator sounds like he’s had a chronic cough from smoking.

But alas anything to keep my reading streak…

If there ever needs to be a physical war to protect Libby (the app), I will enthusiastically lay my life on the front lines.

There I was looking for something to listen to so I can keep my reading streak and then I get a notif and it’s Libby telling me my audiobook is ready.

Libby, I’d die for youuuuu!!!

Sanderson is really bringing out all of my sociology lessons because I literally wanna write an essay. Like I can absolutely write a sociological, character and political analysis of just this first 60%.

Good news, Vin isn’t annoying me as much because I’m now reading her from an analysis standpoint as opposed to whether I like her or not and that’s working for me.

Vin: “What is he thinking? He’s so much younger then me”

*he is 15 and she’s 17*

Other male interest is 21 and she sees no problem I-

Jail!

Oh boi, depending on what Sanderson does with Vin, she might be the thing that I dislike about the book i can’t stand herrr. But she’s just a teenager but erghhh like stay at homeeee.
And we’re in her POV so fucking much, my grace is dwindling. Teenagers in these kind of stories are always so eager to be involved like I beg you learn when to just stay put!!!

I’m rooting for her healing but like bruh…
