I am enjoying the travelling between worlds, the magic, the vampire aspect, the bond and mate stuff, but I’m hoping there is more to the relationship now than the spice it’s been lately, even when they are miles apart?

Dang it, I slowed down reading this book when I realised there was another book coming and it won’t be for ages!!!

multi POV. not sure if its a vibe.

I haven’t really been able to keep up with the story but I hope this last quarter brings it all together

Brandon is not my fave character. What is with all the males…

This novella is not going to be long enough.

Oh lordy. Asa’s story is filled with grief, depression, lack of self-worth, denial, all those sad and negative emotions…

Up to chapter 6. Honestly this story is so crazy. I feel like I’m missing some key information to make this story flow.

Tawai’s kids are turning into adults…

Restarted this but in audio. When the ol’ koro says ‘for such a time as this’, i think it sounds more poignant. Having heard the whispers of his tipuna, I think its ’he’s exactly where he’s meant to be’

Picked up this novel, one because it’s NZ and I need to read more local, secondly because it’s a mystery and I don’t usually read crime novels, and lastly because of the blurb on the back “the chin tattoo confirms the victim is maori. the whorls of ink from her lower lip to her chin - the moko - is worn only by maori women. So her ethnicity is a given.” just reads sooo “can’t think of the right word”

I had to read a few pages because it is due back at the library and I need to know whether to put a hold on it. Yes. It fits the Popsugar prompt about a cult. It’s also quite a good read.m so far.

Downloaded this for my 4 hour drive home. Listened to about a third of it, like the different voices. I’m assuming the male rat voice is someone else! lol

I didn’t realise it was going to be more than one person’s experience of the ‘tea getting cold’.

the story just hasn’t captured me
like the first two. She’s a hard lady!

The ghost woman in the dress, sitting on the chair that Fumiko needs to sit in, in order to travel into the past. She only leaves the chair when she goes to the toilet… good luck with the wait! This is so random.

Ooooh a ghost! 👻 Wasn’t expecting that!

So many rules for time travel… Fumiko hoping to travel to the past to stop the fella from leaving to America. But it’s not possible to change the present… why would you want to experience the break up again?

Such an interesting start, being dumped in a cafe… when she was hoping it would be asking for her hand in marriage. How did she get that so wrong

The internal monologue sounds very realistic.

It wouldn’t surprise me if lovers of Animal Farm became vegetarians

I sort of wish this series wasn’t so filled with ‘plunging’. I think the story could be better as a fantasy with less romance. The war and the relationships, family dynamic, the courts, villains etc is already a good story to tell.

i haven’t really read DC comics before. Is this like a spin off sort of thing? That’s sort of what Im expecting or like a retelling.

when i added this to my TBR i thought it was a romance but i probably shouldve looked at the cover harder… its far from the happily ever after i was expecting from Peter Pann and the Lost Boys

Read the prologue and think i need to pick up #3.5 before I delve into this? Luckily I’ve already got the book out from the library so will try smash that out this weekend and continue on with this

Picked this up thinking it was a dragon on the cover but it’s just a mask. That’s okay, will fit the ‘silver’ prompt for Popsugar Reading Challenge.

did we have other POV in the first two books? i’m listening to audio and is this a different narrator? sounds different.

😳

Took me 9 hours to read this book!
