Claudie ☾’s Reviews > The Administration > Status Update

I was just about to ask if this was worth a read since there are so many books and it’s not on KU, but it looks like I have my answer 😆

Alyssa, 98% of this series is free on the author's site 😉 mannazone dot org ❤️

Wow! The 7th time??? It must reaaally be good!!!

I had no idea!! I’ll probably end up buying them because I’m lazy and like reading on my Kindle lol, but I was curious about the additional stories listed on GR. Coming in clutch as always - thank ya kindly, Claudie 🥰 I have so many series to read next year based on your recs 😂

I am obsessed with this series, Nelly 😍🙈 It's definitely not for everyone, but if you like morally gray characters, unconventional romance, and dystopia, this is top shelf 😌👌

What a great way to cap off the year! 😄 I binged the series a couple weeks ago. Toreth is one of my favorite characters! ❤️ He’s so subtly hilarious

yay!! crossing my fingers super tight that you'll love this too 🤞🤞🤞 the MC is such an unapologetic bastard, you'll either love him or hate him 🤣

oh, one more thing, Alyssa! check out her page anyway, she listed all the books and short stories in order and that's always helpful when dealing with long series 😵‍💫

Noted! Thank you so much for the advice - now I might need to make a poll to figure out which series to start off with 😂

you're very welcome 😊 I have to admit that my interest is a bit selfish haha, I'd love to read your review of this series 😂
and what are the other contenders? 👀 you should always go with your gut!

That’s what recs are all about 😉 Unfortunately my gut has gone silent, right when I needed it most 😔 So far my list includes this, The Heart Rate of a Mouse, Dig Two Graves, You & Me, and The Sea Ain’t Mine Alone - and they’re all pretty long! You’re more than welcome to choose for me 😂

THROAM is an angsty romance masterpiece that will put you through the wringer in ways that Greg’s books can only dream of (and it’s also pretty high on my reread list for 2023 😍); the Administration is a BDSM/mystery/character study extravaganza, but the romance is slow going as one of the MCs is an emotionally-stunted bastard with commitment issues; The Sea Ain’t Mine Alone is very slow-paced, dreamy, poignant, and beautifully written; Dig Two Graves is pretty fun but also a little bit angsty, it reminded me of an old school western… I haven’t read You & Me yet, but it’s also on my tbr. From what I remember, it seems to be a pretty fluffy and sweet romance 🤔
SO it all depends on your mood, but I really recommend the first three 🤭

omg i should reread this series too❤️

I had such a hard time deciding on my first book of the year, Nark! 🙈 I'm weird like that, I like my first book to be special 😂 and I've got a list of priority reads for 2023, but I couldn't make up my mind so I thought, why not just reread an old favorite? 😌

Enjoy!! That's a good series to start the year with !

thanks! 🥰 it's one of my comfort reads at this point 😂 my last reread was almost two years ago, but I remember everything practically verbatim 🙈

This series has been on my TBR pile for so long, but I swear 2023 is going to be the year I read it! Thanks for the reminder.

I'm speechless, the details!! I'm copy and pasting this to my notes - thank you so much, you're the best! 🥰 The main thing that's keeping me back from starting is the lack of audio, so I might resort to Siri reading these stories aloud to me. Keep an eye out for a poll in the near future once I get a few ARCs out of the way 🤣

Wow, 7 times! Enjoy!

Nothing better than a reread to make sure you start your reading year the right way. Enjoy, Claudie! ☺️
