A Reading Journal
TL;DR: Unfortunately this was not an improvement on the first book. Source: NetGalley - Thank you to the publisher!! Plot: Maxi spends a lot of time being deeply self conscious and Riftan spends just as much time thinking with his dick. Characters: I was so disappointed by them. Setting: Not strong at all, I wish... Continue Reading →
TL;DR: This one was quite mediocre. Source: NetGalley - Thank you to the publisher!! Plot: Girl with powers is trying to become a queen and bond a dragon. Fights follow.

Source: NetGalley - Thank you to Orbit!TL;DR: No quest, far less world, and more sex. Not as fun for me as the first one but mileage may vary. Plot: Focuses in primarily on the forced proximity of Felix and Brie. There is a mystery added on but it's definitely not the focusCharacters: A lot of... Continue Reading →
Source: NetGalley, many thanks to the publisher!TL;DR: While the characters were a bit flat and one-note the world and magic was very interesting.
