The banter is hilarious…really enjoying so far! 😊⚔️

I always appreciate an intelligent, resilient, and kind FMC. This is written so well!

I’m truly so happy to finally read these classics…but it’s maddening how we get pages of details about flowers and trees and then right as some interesting event is about to happen or a character interaction, the next chapter is like the next day or month or skips it entirely! 😂 I always struggle with time skips 🤪

Hi friends! It’s still me, Madee! You might be confused who this new friend is. Don’t worry, I’ve just changed my name to my bookish name going forward. :)

I really love the atmosphere of this book. The dark and foggy academy setting is 🤌 The mcs also had a Gilbert Blythe and Anne Shirley moment and I loved it ☺️

DNF @ 52%. I can’t take another reference to Tom Selleck, his mustache, how much the fmc thinks he’s hot, how she dreams about him, etc. He was mentioned 48 times!!!

I want more books with soft and kind female main characters like this! I’m so tired of the trained assassin since birth fmcs in all fantasy! 😂

I was ready for the story to be done at 50%. I feel like it should’ve wrapped up sooner and I’m finding it hard to want to pick it up throughout the day.

Super cozy fall read! Really enjoying this one so far. 🍂🍁🍂🍁

Re-read before the final installment comes out on the 17th! 🧚

This did NOT need to be a duology

Re-read because I love this book so much! And I have since caught so many details I missed before the plot twist!

I don’t know why, but the constant cartoonish pirate speech from the FMC is aggravating me hahah. Like, “Ye scalleywag” type stuff but said in all seriousness 🥴

I find myself so confused. I also really didn’t like the side characters 🤨

This is such a cozy fall read. So many autumnal details that were portrayed so well. 🍁 I’m not a fan of the language and innuendos. There are quite a few grammatical errors too. It’s lookin’ like a decent 3 star read for me.

DNF @ 54%. Phew I understand the author’s intention with the messages in this book, but it’s just too heavy for me to keep reading. Please check the content and trigger warnings or feel free to message me.

DNF. The romance is “distant” cousins. I don’t care how distant they are…they have the same last name. I cannot do this 😅

The reunion with the siblings 😭😭😭

I love this FMC. She is so strong amongst all these ungrateful people who just want to use her.

Ehhhh, that sudden conclusion was a little lame to be honest. I think I had higher expectations. But cute story nonetheless.

I was not expecting that plot twist at all which I love. What a super interesting layer to this! 🥨

DNF by chapter 2. There were so many lusty thoughts and descriptions I couldn’t take it anymore. The 4th sentence of the book already had a typo so I was immediately annoyed lol. I also eye-rolled at the word “unalive” being used. Just not for me.
