Dire. So much dire-ness. Everything is so dire and it's keeping me on pins and needles. I love Bec McMaster!! Also, I need separate stories about Malachai and then Remington immediately.

Ok, so even though I'm still early in the book, I love the world building, the visual descriptions remind me of like a Fable III kindof universe. Also, even though I haven't even met all the characters yet, I smell a love triangle. There are three books and already the main dude is so perfect it's a no brainer. There must be some conflicts looming somewhere, cause otherwise, like, yes.

This is a very good textbook, it's clear and straightforward although it's very dense. I've made flashcards to help memorize the alphabet and symbols as recommended and it makes progressing through the text easier, even if you are just trying to get a basic understanding of how the language functions.

Not making a ton of progress! Maybe I'm spoiled, but this is a slow start. I have a feeling that I'm going to appreciate the early investment as this world is very unique, beautiful and dangerous. We shall see!

So this is a big one, my current goal is just to read and absorb a few pages a day. Let the experiment begin!

I now approximate all non-essential purchases in terms of books: "I could get these new boots that I need for fall, OR, I can empty my current amazon basket and get 11 books..." Guess which one wins.

Action packed, incredibly unique, immersive world that sucks you in, I love it so far! I've barely made it into the series but I heart Iseult and her badassery and crush on bad boy Aeduan. (i know, i know he's eeeeeevil) This book is so fun!

Good lord, post apocalyptic/dystopian whathaveyou is SO not my usual brand of catnip, but I will read anything Bec McMaster writes, and this proves why! What a suspenseful, riveting (let's not forget steamy) beginning to a very unique world!

Aaaaaand we're off! Matt and India are getting closer, their dynamic is heating up and I can't say just how happy I am to be back in this world!

Still making my through. This one has lots of Arthurian love triangle/angst vibes which just isn't my cup of tea, although Hoyt is so good at creating a vibrant atmosphere I almost don't mind. I also have trouble with Hero, cause I want her to be more anachronistic and grow a backbone already, but that doesn't mean that it isn't a good book, just that the heroine annoys me personally..

Thoroughly enjoying this introduction, it reminds me Douglas Adams and the cadence of Hitchhikers and overall promises to be excellent!

Sigh, second installments are always so hard when the debut is fantastic... forging ahead even though this one has been a slow start for me!
