“Love is pain”
“Love is life.”
Nice to see that it’s the FMC jaded about love for once, lol.

Her husband just told her that she’s not ever allowed to look at him. Yeahhhh right, buddy. You’re the ML 😂😂😂

“Some people are ghosts before they are dead.”
Again, wow.

“ sometimes I think it’s best to say nothing at all. Silence cannot be misquoted.”
Wow.

I’m of two minds about this book… the adventuring is not bad. There’s actual setbacks and moments of victory. But! the dialogue is SO. DANG. CRINGE. 💀

In a pleasant surprise, the love interest is non-binary! This is the first book I’ve read where a main character was gender nonconforming.

The audiobook voice actor's chipper voice while talking makes her extra creepy. She talks about death the way that normal people talk about the weather. This lady is in her 70's and lies like she's getting paid to!

It’s been a while since I’ve read a book THIS spicy 🥵

Oh LAWD he has a flip phone!!! 😭😭😭

Omg the acknowledgments said “to xxx for always listening to me talking about knotting.”
Heheh this is going to be a FUN read 🐺🐺🐺

wtf is happening?! Why is Orok (the MC) so icky?? 😖 he was quite likable as the bestie in book 1…

“Not when I woke up this morning intending to separate from my patron god, and ended up his poster boy for heroic deeds. And also, tied to a fake relationship with a guy who had been more fantasy than reality just hours ago… Am I still asleep?”
Lmao the MMC’s inner dialogue is hilarious.

I'm more invested in the world building & active war storyline than any love brewing between our leads. Elegy makes for a fabulous FMC and Theren's a redeemable MMC, but his whole-bodied level of devotion doesn't make sense...

I’m a little lukewarm on the ML… he’s traumatized so he deserves grace, but I’m not sold on him just yet. 🥸

Note to self: don’t get attached to kind and emotionally mature love interests in the beginning of stories. 🙃🙃🙃

“I couldn’t face it,” He said. “A world without you.”
Nena, girl, I think it’s time we forgive him. 😭

“his soul bore her brand, the wound deep and blackened and scarred over. Part of him knew that his life was now a game of second best, of good enoughs. A meager harvest grown in the long shadow of her absence.”
The fact that I keep pausing to annotate this book… oh my gawd am I having a good read! I wasn’t even expecting such a STUNNING love story in a vampire book about 1800’s Mexico.

“You told #### that I was yours. I am not. I will never be yours.” He laughed.
Oh, you bastard.

OH. MY. GOD.
I did NOT see that coming.

It’s a really interest high-concept fantasy book, buuut I lowkey can’t keep track of all the characters 😅

“I could reach out and boop him on the nose. Oh God, he would kill me.”
The sporadic mentions of booping and Craigslist in this super high fantasy book is TAKING ME OUT!! 🤣

I have more questions than answers even halfway through. How can you start remembering memories that you never made??!
This book is so good!

“My heart begs for you.” (Him)
“Maybe it’s heartburn? (Her)
Denial is a river in Egypt 🤣🤣

(Mind you, I actually paused at a ROUGH scene rn. I’m quoting a happier scene from earlier in my read 😭)

Ohhhh this is NICEEEE! I totally get the hype for this book! The 1910’s to the 1950’s to 2023!! 🤭

Danny Garcia is still swoony buuuut this book is FOR SURE 100 pages too long.

“It’ll be a one time thing.”
With the way you can’t stop staring at each other?! Sure, buddy 🤨🤭

This book comes HIGHLY recommend but… does it get better???? All he’s doing so far is traversing through a mismatch of halls? *head scratch*

“I don’t have an emergency contact, but—“

“Put me down.”

No hesitation. He didn’t even let her finish her sentence. Ughhh I’m down bad for Danny Garcia 😍

Omg the mental picture of Josephine slashing tires and Daniel standing behind her saying words of encouragements has me giggling like crazy 😂😂

If you look up the definition of a golden retriever male lead, Danny Garcia’s sweet face will show up. No definition necessary! 😍
