Had no idea this book came out! Enjoying it a lot so far via audiobook as I wait to get my physical copy (I’m excited to see the physical drawings/pictures inside). Picks up where the last book left off. Another interesting start and Ix’s insecurities feel v realistic.

I have no idea what's happening lol

Damn, there is so much packed into this book. Pretty good pacing.

Updating progress on audio book reread from past 2 days or so. I finally see the complaints in narrator for Wylan. I had to make his 1.5 speed and then it was too fast for Matthias' POV at that speed (I like a slower audiobook lately). The Wylan narrator is also super annoying when he says Jesper's lines in a weird accent. Some of the narrators occasionally mispronounce Inej as Inez or Kaz. Anyway, story is good, obv

Reading via audiobook although I have the Waterstones Edition too.

Kinda boring so far, don't care for the setting, characters, or mix of Spanish/Hebrew within the writing. Considering DNFing again (last time I didn't get past the first chapter) but trudging on... not the first time I had to be bored before the story got better in a Leigh Bardugo book.

Litjoy’s coming out with a new set so it’s time to decide if I’m buying.

Is it weird that I liked this better than Tithe & Ironside?

Skipped this one at first to read Tithe -> Ironside and continue Kaye’s story instead. So far, am enjoying the plot and I like Val (but less so than Kaye and Corny). I like seeing different kinds of fae/creatures than we see in the other books (particularly the run-in with the troll) and a human character thrust into the faerie world w/o interacting with the actual courts (at least for half the book).

On my fifth read of this book? My fav series 😭

DNF at 23%

Please let this be good, since I’ve had trouble finding a followup for Nevermoor

Might DNF this. Having to follow up Nevermoor is… really difficult. Kind of bored of this book….

I might DNF this bc it’s due back at the library in 4 days and i’m not in the mood to continue this rn

Still liking it better than Book 2 lol

Like it better than Book 2 so far. I think I just don’t enjoy Morrigan staying so angsty and treated so unfairly

Finally a new series i can get invested in

Good pace so far

On sale again on Libro FM? Finally my chance to buy for less than $4 and see what the hype is about. PLEASE let this be a five star…

My library hold is coming thru. Hopefully a spooky read?

Please let this book be a five star read! I’m in a four star book slump where most books have been worth reading but have not blown me away. I neeeeeed this to make me feel captivated, obsessed.

Kind of a blur since i need to return this by the end of today but story flows well, i feel invested. Not sure i love the main characters but they grew on me a bit

OK so far. Confused about the cards situation.

Serena is my fav character even tho I’m pretty sure she’s gonna die at some point rip
