I‘m not much of a fantasy/romantasy girl, but I did enjoy this! With all the hype surrounding this series, I‘m glad I finally read it because I was so curious about all the hype. I think it lived up to it! Great world-building, plenty of tension, and some spice! I‘d definitely be up to continuing the series.

Okay, this was super addictive and I tore through the whole thing today. I agree with those who say Alex is toxic and a walking red flag - but I still rooted for him, even though I don‘t think I am supposed to. In that way, he reminded me of Joe Goldberg from You. 🤪
But I did like him and Ava together and how they helped each other with some pretty dark stuff. And the spice was off the charts! 🌶️

36 y/o Adele is engaged to the man of her dreams, but when her ex boyfriends start dying (in the order that she dated them), she wonders if her fiance is the murderer. Decent thriller and kept my interest throughout!

As a woman, wife, and mother, I will be thinking about this one for a while. The brutal rape of a 14 y/o Mexican girl rocks a community in 1976 Odessa, Texas. It‘s a time where women had few options and not much was expected of them, other than being good wives and mothers. Told from multiple POVs, all strong women and girls, and all great characters. The setting itself is written so strongly that it‘s like a character too.

A good MG story about a girl‘s soccer team who fight back when their sexist male coach crosses the line. It‘s kinda sad and infuriating though that a MG book had to be written about this subject, but I‘m glad it‘s out there for any young girls who might need it.

What fun! I will definitely be reading more of this historical fiction cozy series! Frances is an awesome character, bucking the norms of her time. She‘s recently widowed and decides to move and live independently, but it doesn‘t take long for her to get embroiled in a mystery, and the culprit may be one of her younger sister‘s suitors.

I had no idea what the hell was going on in this book, and I do love when that happens! I enjoyed the supernatural aspect, the homage to Rosemary‘s Baby, and how Unger made the apartment building seem like a character. Very atmospheric and twisty!

Loved this one! Margo is a character I immediately started rooting for. She‘s young and naive, but she tries to learn from her mistakes. Lots of character growth! This isn‘t a totally light read, as many heavy topics are addressed - addiction, sex work, and societal expectations for mothers among them. An overall great read!
