I’m juuuuust not feeling this that much, even the graphic audio is not converting me yet.

Wait wait wait this graphic audio is fire. A game changer!

Ok not obsessed with the long chapters and tangential nature of the writing style so far but giving it a chance to hook me.

Soft DNF. This isn’t pulling me out of the reading slump I’m in

This is giving Paradise from Hulu vibes. Stratt is reminding me of Sinatra.

Russ knows just what to say 😍😅

“I don’t know that I’ll see her again at all. Inside our friendship lies a version of me that I’m not sure I ever want back. But I’ll miss her, I think.”

❤️

This writing feels so immature I’m sorry. And it’s moving so fast. Like, conclusions are being made in a matter of sentences. The pacing is off. I have a feeling this won’t be a fave but let’s see.

She mentioned A Different World reruns…i am so locked in!

I love the writing style in this one especially: it’s the first book in the series that I’ve read in the physical (rather than on my kindle plus audio) and I’m really enjoying the experience. There are some quotes that really speak to me so far. It also makes me want to read the Hoops and Grip series soon!

I’m sorry but at what point am I supposed to care?

Gibsie has me cackling y’all

“Never you mind that I already love her in this one.” 😭

Re: Magnolia…if this doesn’t sum up this series!!

“She’ll pull you in till she makes you fall in love with her and—you know what—“ He shrugged. “She might even fall in love with you too but not how she loves him.”

Ok wait this is getting good 😳

“You’re my answer. The only one I need.”

My heart 😭😭😭

Something is missing! I love these characters. Really, Taran, Alixe, and the loml Luther more than Diem. But the execution of this plot is just falling short.

Yeah idk if I’m in the mood for this right now. Is this series just going to be 4 books of Morgan trying to pick a man? Sis pick yourself!

“I’m not planning anything and I’m not pretending anything and I’m not expecting you to do anything except love me as hard and as strong as I’m going to love you.”

My heart ❤️

Seriously wtf am i reading?

Yeah Feyre and this plot is pissing me off

I really like this writing style. Sebastian seems kinda whack to me so far. I’m not sure what Toni saw in him. We shall see what is revealed.

“You are my Queen, and I am your sword. Point me at your enemies and watch them fall. Lead this world, Diem, and I will follow you—into war, into death, into the tundra of hell itself.”….”You are the fate my heart was spared for. As long as it beats, you will never fight alone.”

“If a kiss is the reward, my Queen, I’ll get on my knees for you whenever you want.” 🫠

“She closed her eyes and held on tight, staying there until she was done crying. He was patient and rubbed circles into her back until she calmed. He knew better than to rush her somberness. He had held his mother a lot of days as a child as she cried, and he had learned to let a woman cry until she couldn’t anymore. To empty her soul into exhaustion.”
