Enjoying this so far.

I’m bored. Too much tech details that I don’t care about.

2.0

First half had a lot of technical mumbo jumbo that was a bit difficult to follow but now we’re getting into some action.

Over 25% in and I have learned nothing that I find useful to improve in productivity. Lots of studies that Ali refers to but so far there’s nothing that I personally can take action on.

Really liking it so far. H/h are both damaged. Curious to see how they work it out as the story progresses.

This book is way too long. =\

25% through and it’s just ok. I don’t know how many times we need to be reminded of the color of everyone’s eyes. Yes, Azriel has hazel eyes, yes, Amren has silver, yes, Rhys has violet…just shut the eff up already. No one cares. Rant over.

Verrrry slow start. I keep putting this down, nothing is hooking me yet. 😴

Does Violet think and act like a horny teenage girl throughout the whole series? Please tell me it ain’t so. I get it. Xaden is a hot piece of ass, he makes her toes curl and her heart race, blah, blah rinse & repeat. 😒

Fun read so far. The magic system is pretty unique and I love that the dragons can talk. I loved Dain but now he’s annoying AF. No one likes a boyscout, even hot ones.

I don’t know why that Jack guy wants to kill violet so bad. It’s weird.

Why the need to emphasize the race of the family Briana’s mom worked for? Is that relevant?

“Burn-the-patriarchy energy” =\

How is reminding someone not to run in the halls “mansplaining”? Oh geez, I hope this isn’t one of those cringy feminist novels. =\

I did not like Brianna in the first book but we’ll see how this goes.

DNF. Not for me.

Slow moving. Lots of history being laid out.

Sigh, back to white man hating again.

Ok, so the dick pic chapter was hilarious. Redeemed itself from the feminist commentary.

I do feel like Alexis thinks and talks way too much about Neil. I know she’s comparing him to Daniel but I don’t give a shit about Neil.

4.5

Cute start. Daniel is so sweet. I just wish there wasn’t a dumb bitch making stupid SJW comments. Ruins the initial charm. =/

4.5

It’s hard for me to focus on this book. It’s not engaging or a bit interesting, I hate to say. 😕

4.5

Very repetitive. Not sure the direction of his message. I also didn’t like when he used his experience of meeting with a fan that wanted to talk about how his words impacted him, as the “devil at the table”. It was jarring and felt very unchristian like.

I don’t like how liv is unnecessarily mean to Mack. It’s off-putting.
