Immerses you immediately. The worldbuilding builds with the story and it is cruel one at that. Strong female characters and a golden retriever mmc. I like it alot so far.

Moving at a sluggish pace. So far, the writing style is lots of tell and some show. Lots of worldbuilding and i feel like it is going to take some more time before ig is going to pick up. I cannot dnf as i am intrigued.
(I had to grumble at the unclear time references. )

Oh no. Only 60 pages left! So thouroughly enjoying this!

I am so rooting for the girl club ☆

2 chapers in and so happy I am back in this realm. This book has a playlist (on Spotify) and it is sooooooo good to have the best soundtrack to the story of Bellatrix & Dorian. 💜

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭 no, no, noooooooooooooo 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Keeps taking turns. I dread what the next book will bring for Daria...

Action, devastation, mystery, and a "NO!" (The husband jumped). Great read so far! (And also: Chumana 💜)

Beta read - Already intriguing!

The pace of the firtst 200 pages was slow. I couldn't get into most characters as their arcs were unclear (can she trust Tai&Cody/Hudson and why is Colt introduced?? What is she doing with Liam: felt too much as an empty hook to get to create tension between her and Hudson but there is almost none...). I DNFed 😮‍💨 as my attention couldn't stay with the story.

I can't tell you much yet. This is a beta read for Tavia and I am excited. It's the 3rd book I read by this indy author and she is a dream to work with. If this book builds further on the first part of this duology in style and character development, it will be a great ride! This book will release in a few months so keep an eye on Tavia's socials!
P.S.: That cover... I mean... Stunning!

The story develops at a slower pace, but is not predictable. I love the use of language: keeps you on your toes with eloquency!

Ik had echt pas in hoofdstuk 5 door dat het hoofdpersonage een jongen is (door de cover?)! En zijn naam komt pas in hoofdstuk 11. Niet mijn fout, wel? :p

I am at a loss to ween out the bad ones from tehe good ones, that doctor is creepy (how does he know all that stuff) and Anisa... is very enigmatic. Feels a bit like she is grooming Cyan and Micah into... i don't know, some kind of weapons.
Hope to finish this one tomorrow!!

I feel the tension building. So ready for the next half of the book!!

Just dipped my toe in and back in the Micah universe. 💜 Can't wait to see how they grow into their own skin!

These last few chapters have clawed their way into my heart. Lyla you fierce wise girl! 🫶

The yearning. Phieuw!
And omg i want Bellatrix vs Dorian as a thing. And just now I realise: Atticus is going to be a key player. But who is he paired with? And when is the Lunar Ball??

Feeling the flow, but some scenes are dragged out by the descriptions.
