Returned the #audiobooks via #hoopla

This was an enjoyable book! Totally loved the “Beauty and the Beast” vibes.

The romance was heartwarming 💘
Believable characters, liked their flaws, and how they still had hope
A lot of tragedy is experienced by the characters, yet they still live with the pain and seek justice

I‘ll continue the series. I hear book two is the best of them.

Started this #audiobook and got through three hours in my first sitting. Seems very Beauty and the Beast so far. I like it, waiting for some action to start soon.

willaful I remember finding the audiobook rather repetitive in style -- a dramatized adaption sounds like a good idea. 2w
peaKnit I enjoy the cast audio, so immersive! I‘m mid book 3 of series. 2w
CrowCAH @willaful I like the extra sounds, helps the story a bit. 2w
CrowCAH @peaKnit yeah, not too many do the immersive audio, so when I saw Hoopla had it, I wanted to do that version and not the regular audio. 2w

This was way more deeply emotional than I first thought this story would be. Had me in tears 😭 at several passages. It‘s a moving story of letting go of the past, being true to yourself, and fully opening up so one can love and be loved 🥰

Very well written and a page turner! 📖

Such a good book in development of the characters and plot! It had its highs and revelations! And its lows and inner turmoil for the main characters. It even opened a lot of questions that I hope the next book in the series will answer.

I listened to the audiobook (49 hours), but sooo worth it! The two narrators do a superb job reading!

Mehso-so

This held such promise, but it was a disappointment.
The details on the writing were sloppy.
The motivation for Inez, though plausible, was too broad to give her focus.
I did like the romance between Inez and Whit. He was the best character out of this whole book!
The “shocking” revelations were eye rolling semi-disbelieving outcomes.
I got frustrated with the characters. Inez kept making one bad choice after another, never learning a lesson.
