This was absolutely an amazing introduction into horror! everything starts off almost cozy, building up into creepy, then spooky, then downright chilling! everything has that sort of out of body feeling of something about to go very wrong, and every time a butterfly showed up in the book i tensed. between the body horror and the mystery of the grandmothers past and present, i was absolutely hooked, and thoroughly creeped out!

An amazing sequel! i loved it even more than the first one and that's saying something given how many times i've read The Tainted Cup! a solid ten stars from me! a definite must read series for anyone who loves Sherlock style murder mysteries, unique worlds filled with dangers never before seen, and thrilling adventures. a solid 10 stars from me!

A Fantastic, thrilling continuation of one of my most favorite cozy fantasy series by far! with brand new characters to absolutely love, and returning favorites, your not going to want to miss the wedding of the century! seriously, you do NOT wanna miss this. With the narrator, Jessica Threet, adding so much life and personality to already amazing characters, this is a book you don't want to miss!

Breathtaking worldbuilding, unique magic system, brilliant characters and a gritty realistic plot that will have you on the edge of your seat. with immense diversity, a realistic depiction of the work that goes into overcoming trauma without sugarcoating anything, and the gritty realism of war, this is easily on my top ten list for 2025!

If your a fan of Howls moving castle, then you HAVE to read this book! it's grim dark, intense, filled with horrifically beautiful settings. a dark telling of what really happens when a sorcerer steals your heart. filled with a morbid humor, with flawed and brilliant characters. between the world building, the magic system, and the ending, this book is going to be an absolute obsession. this is a definite must read!

An amazing, thrilling adventure! This gas lamp fantasy book is technically a stand-alone within the Gwen St. James series, and is 100% my favorite of the entire series so far! Enemies to lovers, touch her and die, fey, and a little bit of that super hot pepper, if you catch my drift. Definitely a full 5 star from me!

A Brilliant Story that left me gasping, chewing my nails, and giggling like a school girl after a text from their crush! i loved the unique setting, the brilliant characters, and how relatable the two main characters were! it starts off a little slower, almost cozy, and quickly snowballs into the high paced action of trying to survive at the end of the world. a brilliant new take on an old genre!

A thrilling, fantastic, amazing continuation from the first book, with an even higher stakes case to be solved with an enemy smarter than even the illustrious Ana. the dangers are intense, the suspects are ever growing, and the body count is getting higher. I am already desperate for the next book, and this will absolutely be on my re-reads list!

This book had me at the edge of my seat, chewing my nails, and screaming bloody murder!!! I threw my kindle, I cried, i gasped, and at the very last page, i leapt to my feet and cursed the author!!!! 100% a brilliant book that everyone should read!!! seriously, please read it. i BEG of you!

what is the difference between a Promise, and Fate? one you choose, the other is thrust upon you, but both can ruin everything. Does a promise still count if you cannot remember it? the Gods of Fate, Destiny and Promise are all going to ensure they get their dues, and if it breaks the world in the process so be it. follow two very lucky, and very unlucky boys, as they do everything they can to duck fate, keep their promises, and stay together.

This is a morbidly hilarious take on an afterlife that's understaffed, overbooked, and completely unprepared for the Newly Dead Life Coach who is not only not taking 'please stay on the line' standing down, but is about to uncover a horribly mystery that could end the afterlife, and life alike. this book had me roaring with laughter, as well as chewing my fingernails as i kept turning the pages, unable to put it down!

A Hilarious tongue in cheek adventure filled with slow burn romances, overcoming trauma, remembering who you are, deciding who you want to be and a lot of hilarious satire on the more common tropes in fantasy. a cozy adjacent adventure, where four heroes must learn how to be heroes all over again, all the while trying to avoid the simmering resentment due to their shared pasts.
