The loosening of her tongue, the fogging of her conscious thoughts, was becoming a problem. All her life she had prided herself on her ability to bide time, to assess every threat before choosing a path, and yet here she was barreling into hostile situations, uttering the first misguided threat that came into her head
Girl this has been throughout the entire book, at least you recognize it

Booktube recommended it as a mix of the secret history , babel and Emily Wilde’s encyclopedia of faeries
Like all my favorite books , so I am very excited 🤭🌹

I WAS NOT SIGNING UP FOR A LOVE TRIANGLE WHERE I AM CLEARLY ROOTING FOR THE MMC THAT WILL NOT BE CHOSEN

Will reminds me so much of fanfic tom riddle. It’s disgusting 🫣😭🔥


“It’s the nicest thing I’ve ever owned,” she says. “Well.” His hand lingers against her skin for a moment before he finally releases her. “Then it costs more than anything in the world.”

It‘s getting gooooood

Studying week means slooooow reading , let‘s walk!

I‘M HAVING FIVE STAR FEELINGS

I am feeling much more emotionally connected to Genevieve than Ophelia. This is way better than Phantasma . Could be four stars

Also not as insta love/lust as Phantasma

The plot is so baddd
What am I reading 💀💀💀but also so easy to read??

This is so toxic and a little bit trashy.

My whole reading experience is like this :
🫣😬🤨🤪🫰🤭

I haven’t even read any book by this author ( mind you , this is the 3 book in this series) but this book intrigued me the most
It’s been a long while since I’ve read dark romance , so I kind of feel like this is my first dark romance ever

This has definitely its faults but I am in such a bizarre reading mood and this is addictive
and also slightly funny ?

Placeholder for Jegulus fanfic : 244k words

Expecting this to be a five star🤞

OKAY GENUINELY I DID NOT SEE THE PLOT TWIST COMING

I get why people say it’s predictable since it’s such a common plot line, but I was honestly shocked, so credit where it’s due.

And I’m so mad the trials are ending right when I’m starting to like them 😭 The first ones were so boring, but the deceit, fraud, and violence were actually thrilling 🌟

Only read the first chapter but I think this story is gonna impact me emotionally more than I thought

This has so many faults but the vibes are immaculate, the mystery is fun and it feels like reading a wattpad story ( which is a compliment from me)

I am not a fan of the fmc . She pisses me off on too many grounds. The romance is surprisingly okay. Like yes it’s majorly physical but I can see why they suit each other.
Nothing to write home about but it occupies my time

I am totally loving this!!!!

Biggest proof that I could never be placed in Gryffindor is the way I put off angsty books like this, even though I know it’ll be a five-star read
everything is a crafted masterpiece, and Helena and Kaine have burrowed into my bones. I could easily keep reading, I have plenty of time because of the holidays , but I’m way too emotional, so I start other books instead and ignore Alchemised for days. 😭

The fact that this book could be a potential five star ( mind you , I only had five 5🌟reads) absolutely blows my mind

But I LOVE OPHELIA, her inner monologues are sooo funny and I love the empathy she grants towards others . The banter with Alex is sooo good. The vibes spot on. And the writing that many criticize doesn’t feel clonky to me at all

obsessed with the stories about fairies, the humor and ofc romance
Wendell literally wants Emily to have his true name so she can have the power to command him, and he trusts her to use it when necessary. He also built her an entire library filled with journals for her to write in and don’t even get me started on the cottage.
Ngl, I’m confused about why people consider this book the weakest in the series.

“Thank you for making the present worth fearing the future.”

The fact that this is a platonic love quote rather than a romantic one makes it much more wholesome

“You’re like a rose in a graveyard,” he said, and his lips twisted into a bitter smile. “I wonder what you could have turned into without the war.”

Kill me more gently next time , please

THIS IS GENUINELY WRITTEN SO WELL

all of these scenes are very familiar because of manacled but I am not mad about it at all!!!
While the new world building is fascinating, reading this kind of feels like re-reading . Reason why I am gonna read something new in between

IT’S TIME
it’s been two years since I’ve read manacled and I am really scared
However I have been reading such mediocre books lately and also with finals being over , I need to dive into this!!
