'Peaking at Number 3 on June 20, 2020 – Wait, really? Huh. – Anyway, Peaking at Number 3 on June 20, 2020, despite first coming out in 1992, It’s “Killing in the Name.”... Anyone within a few hundred meters of the things would experience immediate, painful hearing damage.'

I'd like to think Morello would approve.

I hate battling in Pokémon Go, so I'm really not enjoying this Pokémon themed floor/story. SIIIIGH

"Donut: IS THIS SERIOUSLY THE ONLY BASS-HEAVY SONG YOU COULD THINK OF? WHAT ABOUT LIL PUMP?"
God I love this series.

Loving the story, because cruise ships and cats are a big pull for me. But this author hasn't used a single contraction. And now that I've noticed it? I can't not see it.

OMG the writing is so fun. I'm having a hard time not highlighting every other paragraph.

"It’s ludacris, but it would explain a lot."
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! 🤣

“Only the bad guys,” I reason. “Seriously?” Celine calls from the bathroom.
[Survey says this was a lie.]

Ripping out the heart of a guy who just talked to the woman he's interested in? I'm not digging the. MMC. He's got a shitton of work to do before he gets approval from me.

"Ezra was in the kitchen, humming to himself as if he hadn’t spent years assisting tyrants in tracking, binding, and disposing of anyone the court found inconvenient. Mortals had an impressive talent for pretending their sins were clerical work."

Damn that's on POINT.

Of COURSE his dad's name is Fergus.

'“Can I bring this home? It’s good. I just don’t want to fill up.” “I don’t take leftovers home. If you want another salad, I’ll send someone back here to get you a fresh one."'

That's a fucking waste. People are starving, probably one block away,as this is Astoria.

Love Fallon, but I'm not really loving the Born Sexy Yesterday way the story characterizes her. Hopefully she'll be better as she trusts Rhys. At least he's a good dude. For an assassin.

DNF. With *waves hands around vaguely* happening here in the USA? I just wasn't up for a fantasy world run by abusive narcissists, and how their indoctrination of young women is so deep, the women censure themselves even when "free". May come back to this later.

I'm literally forcing myself to get through this one. Ava Ross, you're much better than this. (And what ticks me off is the premise is right up my alley. But told in a way that'd cure insomnia.

"Matter exists in five distinct states: solid, liquid, gas, plasma, and paperback."
Damn, I'm loving this book so far.

To really suck me in to a PNR, there's gotta be interesting world building. This one's got it!

Paul Tremblay y'all. Whoa. Oh man. I wonder how many people were fulcrums, for either side. Fascinating story.

(And yeah, I decided to continue the series. This one's much better. I actually got to know these characters before the slamming.)

"Since the moment I’d discovered the opposite sex, there were a few things I knew for certain: Big dicks are where it’s at."
Tell me you've never actually had a truly unmanageable one before... I'm jealous of you actually.

"But like I said already, I hunt monsters. And I got a sword that sings."

Damn. 9% in, and I Am Hooked.

"Despite being pansexual, she was rather trash-sexual." - honey, SAME

Fuuuu... This is some GOOD WRITING.

"... Blasko said with so much honey that Josephine was surprised bears didn’t bust into the room and lick him to death."

I think I just fell in love with this sentence.

While the dramatic irony is absolutely wrecking me, it's wonderful to see Lou and May serving See You Next Tuesday!!!

DEEEEAM. I knew I enjoyed his Buckaroo stories, but this? This is incredible. I never thought I'd be glad to be trapped in jury duty, but I can't stop reading. So, today I win.

I love the way a lot of exposition is delivered by Violet as a way to self soothe as she's dealing with physical challenges. Excellent.

Hank dated "a firey Latina" who was "all about drama". His mate lives in NYC but cuts through Central Park at night. Between the stereotypes and stupidity? DNF.

'“The huckleberry hot cocoa sounds amazing,” Kate said. “I’ll have some too,” Logan said. He didn’t normally drink girly drinks, but what the hell, why not?'

How is flavored hot cocoa girly? Do you have to drink it through your vagina?

"The last relationship I’d had had gone down in flames six months ago, when I caught my supposed girlfriend trying to film me coming out of the shower. I knew I was well-endowed of course, but I didn’t want that shit on the internet."

I dare a PR writer to come up with a male protagonist who's average. DARE ONE.

SO VERY MUCH talk about Christianity (like way too much) and gaming (something I do not care about)... As much as I loved the other books, and want to return to this world? I'm thisclose to bouncing.
