The concept was amazing. Deceased grandmother takes over Jessamyn's body to fight a multibillionaire who wants to destroy sacred Hindu spots. I enjoyed this book so much. #QueerBC @PuddleJumper

I really liked the viewpoint of the main character. As a Malaysian-American, Jess straddles the line of both cultures. It's an element that comes into play multiple times throughout the story. I loved learning about the spirits and the clash between religions. The only thing that grated on me was Jess' naivete. Overall, a fast-paced read full of pissed off spirits.
Great author choice for this month's #queerbc @PuddleJumper

This book was just so lovely and fluffy! Grace is a perfumer who gets caught up in a royal plot and Stephen is a Paladin dealing with lingering mental health issues from the death of his god. They meet when he saves her from charges of grave robbing and then he later saves her from fainting in public by dragging her into another room and accidentally foiling an assassination. (Cont.)
Jess, having recently moved to Malaysia w/ her parents, starts hearing a voice in her head that claims to be her grandmother who needs help w/ some unfinished business. Only then Jess gets mixed in w/ a god, gangsters, & family secrets.
I really loved the world building & the fantastical elements in this. But there was something about how Jess & Ah Ma‘s relationship shifted that bugged me. & this got much darker than I usually enjoy.🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

“I am not as I once was. They have done this to me, broken me open and torn out my heart. I do not know who I am anymore.
Does not suffer from the second volume slump many trilogies do. I was hooked again from chapter one and loved how the characters developed and grew. There are also some important political messages to be found, but only if you're aware of it. As a youth I would have just read it as a good fantasy novel, but as a grown-up I saw a lot more in this story.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.
