This cover really does not match the vibe of the book.

Im mad I have to go to bed and stop reading this.

theres nothing more exhausting than reading about a man with an insufferable ego the size of the universe.

Although, the bits about Leto’s crisis are very interesting to me.

What I like about this is that the more religious Bud gets, the dumber he gets and the less common sense he displays.

im so bored

The premise is feeling like it could be potentially offensive to me and my fellow single people. Being forced into a relationship bc you need to keep the masses who read your column happy but its ok bc its true love? hmmm....

This is by far the worst dune book so far.

This is my least favourite dune book so far, I fear.

Oh, I’m actually enjoying this!

Really enjoying the tone and the inclusion of women and slaves in this (rather than just stuffy stories about old powerful men stabbing each other)

Listening to some Rome related non-fiction before my trip there as a refresher. While I'm enjoying this, I think I was more looking for something a little more about Roman life specifically. Oh well, it's still interesting.

It's just so crazy obvious who the murderer is. Hopefully, its a misdirection.

this may turn out to be my second least favourite Ava Reid novel.

the sex scenes feel out of place and the pacing is off… it may be too late to dnf but I defs won’t be finishing the series.

one should never use the word ‘kneading’ to describe the act of touching breasts.

It should be a crime to take Dramione fics, traditionally publish them and change the characters into Americans… the city of Philadelphia is distinctly UNmagical.

I like the horror elements but the romance is so bleh

Already a much meatier book world building wise than I would expect from Ava Reid.

Not sure how I feel about the ‘sucking the thumbs of one’s cousin’ thing…

I'm really enjoying this but I need to vent about the way romance novels treat strong friendships like theyre less important than romantic relationships.

Kinda crazy because this trip is to help a character through her divorce but people are talking about the FMC in a pitying way because reviving this trip means a lot to her??

Lisan Al Gaib?

I’m a believer in not diminishing women’s achievements but I don’t give a fuck that this girl has hit 1M instagram followers and has applied for a job so why do we keep repeating it?

Calling this an ‘epic story of love and hate’ is a little misleading considering Doro is maybe the most despicable male character I’ve ever read about.
