Fun and fairly quick read. Did not lean into the horror elements too much, but definitely a dark fantasy. My bookclub is reading this currently and everyone loves Hester 😂

4.75/5⭐️ (Close to excellent)
Dina is asked to protect a race that is victim to what amounts to ethnic cleansing.
The full-cast, graphic audio accounts for much or the excellence of this #audiobook, but the story/premise/world is also excellent. I love the characters. While the first two books felt almost like stand alones, this book ends up making connections from previous ones and ends with a tease of the next.
This was my #BookSpin for January, and overall, it's a solid Pick. Though it's the last book in the Raven Cycle series, it's only a short story and is told from Opal's perspective. You would definitely need to have read the other books in the series to understand what is going on and why. Though I haven't read Call Down the Hawk yet, I imagine that this is a nice bridge between the 2 series. #ShelfLove #2025OffMyShelf
Winter Hayes is 7 as Christopher Robin from Winnie The Pooh ❤️
I had to see what the hype was with this. I opened it the other day and now am on a sick day to read more of it!
This is a beautifully written novel that I was able to immerse myself in. Hecatate is an independant, strong female character and I enjoyed going in this journey with her. I liked the magical and mythical aspects of the story. The audiobook added to my enjoyment of the tale. Calin‘s pace and inflection added to the emotions and events of the story. She brought life to the story and to the characters; I hope she narrates the next in the series.
This was very slow, it got better at the end but I found it a slog to get through

Preggo insomnia, putting in some more time with this before work 🐉🌩️🖤
I had to re-read this book before I watch the movie. I had read it years ago, and remembered liking it. It was just as good as I remembered. It‘s a very intense, politically driven story. I think that parts of it can be interpreted differently, and it did leave me with a few questions. It wasn‘t until the very end that Dorothy and her crew appeared in the story. I do like the way that the loose ends seemed to come together at the end.
