I loved this series so much that when I reached the end of book seven I decided to start over from book one. It’s just so much fun.

The character names here are ridiculous. Molly Raven seems straight out of goth 101. Then there’s Bogart Deluca and Violet Roseberry. Not to mention Professor Groot and a Professor Crabtree. The names are distracting

I am loving this book but I have to say I didn’t notice the orc on the cover was female, For some reason I thought it was a male orc with a big barrel shaped chest. I swear I’m not blind. But Viv is amazing.

This book is so much fun! After hearing about it I picked it up on a whim and was immediately hooked.

Keeping a list of the terrible names in this book:
Lowen
Crew
Chastin

The book has given me this nugget too:
“He fed me before he fucked me. Took me to a Steak ‘n Shake” stay classy! Then a character declares they hate pizza. Who hates pizza? Heathens.

The pizza is (dear god) reheated in a microwave. Why not the oven or a toaster oven or just eat it cold? So many things wrong here.

Someone recommended this to me and I have to say so far it's so predictable that it hurts. Also wtf is up with the terrible names authors use these days? What's wrong with a book just about a Natasha, Susan, Michael, Darren, Tyrell etc. Why does everyone have to be called something like Lowen or Crew? Names are a large part of why I no longer can stomach 99% of YA

I really needed this. Modiano is someone I turn to in times of anxiety and stress. His writings transport the reader to some otherworldly version of Paris.

So pleased to find a new book from Antoine Laurain as he is absolutely a gem. Reading this excitedly. It's quite the page turner.

So far this is utterly and completely predictable. Jeeze.

I don't recommend reading this during the current pandemic. Too close to home.

This sounded like a fun read

Sweet jesus.

I had no idea Neruda was such a jerk.

So far this is pretty meh. Why is it so long??? The story here does not seem like it needs over 720 pages to be aptly told.

Gosh this is terrible so far.

I got a preview of this while reading West of the Known, and have been wanting to read it since. Hopefully it’s as interesting as the preview was.

Please tell me this gets better.

Rain, Streaming, Omar Robert Hamilton - 0/5 no idea what was going on here
Lock-In, William Boyle - 2/5 Betsy is horrid.
