By page 109, Queen of Roses still hasn't completely won me over. The pacing feels slower than I expected, and I keep waiting for the story to truly pull me in. There have been a few moments that caught my attention, giving me hope that it has more to offer. I'm sticking with it, hoping the story finally finds its spark.

Corrupt is painfully overrated; unbearable characters, shallow writing, and forced darkness made this a frustrating, exhausting, disappointing read and I genuinely regret reading this; the characters are insufferable, the plot feels hollow, and nothing delivers any real impact.
This book tries to be edgy and dark but ends up cringey; I couldn’t stand a single character here.
I don’t understand the hype

Corrupt already feels tense and addictive. The atmosphere is dark, mysterious, and full of secrets, and the history between Erika and Michael has me so curious. Every little reveal makes the story feel heavier and more intense.
I love how the story builds suspense without rushing.I’m especially intrigued by Michael — he feels cold, controlled, and impossible to read, which makes every interaction with Erika even more

By page 355, Can’t Get Enough of You has turned quietly intense. The emotions run deeper, the connection feels heavier, and every interaction carries real weight. I’m fully invested now — not just in the ending, but in the journey it took to get here.

Up to page 195, Can’t Get Enough of You feels like emotional gravity — soft but impossible to escape. It’s not loud or dramatic; it pulls you in through quiet moments, lingering looks, and everything left unsaid. The connection between the characters feels real in that painfully human way, where longing does most of the talking.
This book doesn’t rush your feelings. It lets them build, settle, and ache.

Wanted to read this one for long finally starting it

By page 251, Insatiable feels like it’s taken full control. The obsession is deeper, darker, and completely consuming. Every scene feels risky, every interaction charged, like the story knows exactly how to keep you trapped.
It’s unsettling, addictive, and impossible to put down. I’m fully locked in — and loving how far this spiral goes. 🖤🔥

Insatiable feels less like a book and more like a takeover — and I’m loving it. The obsession is quiet, deliberate, and intoxicating, tightening its grip until surrender feels natural.
The danger is subtle, the discomfort addictive, and the characters pull you in without apology. This story doesn’t offer safety — it offers a spiral, and I’m stepping into it willingly. 🖤🔥

This book doesn’t ease you in. It grabs you by the throat and forces you to sit with the discomfort. By page 97, Insatiable feels less like a romance and more like a psychological trap — one you step into willingly.
The obsession isn’t loud or dramatic; it’s suffocating. Every interaction feels wrong, heavy, and charged, like a slow descent you’re fully aware of but powerless to stop. This story doesn’t build tension

So far, Insatiable is living up to its name. The tension is thick, the obsession is already unsettling, and the atmosphere feels dark and addictive. I’m intrigued by the characters and the dangerous pull between them — it’s uncomfortable but impossible to ignore.
Only 54 pages in, and I can already tell this book is going to be toxic, intense, and emotionally consuming. Exactly what I signed up for.

Current Thoughts :
I’m still not enjoying God of War much so far. Eli is hot, intense, and easily the best part of the book — but Ava? She’s honestly a headache. Her decisions, attitude, and reactions are making the story frustrating instead of fun.

I’m hoping the book picks up soon, because right now Eli is carrying the entire plot on his back.

God of Fury is intense and emotional. Brandon and Nikolai’s chemistry is electric, full of tension, secrets, and slow-burn attraction. Their characters are complex — Brandon’s struggle with his identity and Nikolai’s dark yet vulnerable side make every scene gripping. The story is addictive, emotional, and beautifully twisted — exactly what I love in Rina Kent’s books.
This is my first MM book and i'm loving it

Gonna drive into other darkness

I'm so excited to drive in this wild journey lowkey so excited to finally read about Landon king in other books he was a totally sociopath but damm I love him

Wow i'm really enjoying this book it's so damm good and really loving Jeremy and Cecily so much

Umm speechless

So far... it's intense!
it’s already giving me more tension, more danger, and way more emotional damage than I expected this early.

Violet’s trauma from the end of Fourth Wing feels very real here. She’s struggling with both physical pain and mental scars, and the author does a great job writing it

If this is just the beginning, I'm scared but also super excited for what's coming next

Excited to dive in !

Currently reading and I’m loving it so far!tension-filled banter = my weakness 😍
Can’t wait to see where this goes!
