Tag you're it- probably the grimoire in this book bouncing around like a hot potato.

So; I did a Pre-halloween thing to get me to finallyfinish this book. For the last couple of chapters, I hauled myself out onto the deck, turned off all the lights and just left a bunch of garden lamps on. Snuggled with a blanket, hot chocolate, cookies, my kindle and my mini border collie at my feet and read in the moonlight. Let me tell you - chills.

Spice level: strangely forgettable scenes but I remember there being heat🌶🌶🌶

Plot/Storyline: - 0.5 Commendable Lore-building. Nothing quoteable. Also I hated that Leon kept on calling her "doll" it was cringe not sexy. Also too many filler pages.

Characters: - 0.5 Let's be honest, Rae was written to be somewhat annoying right? She got on my nerves at least half of the time and it felt deliberate.

Inaya is the stereotypical cardboard cut out "best friend". The Hadleighs are this big looming threat and yet we hardly spend time with them. I guess that works, it was like hearing rumors about them whenever they were mentioned - credible rumors. Everly was worth of more page time - I was already rooting for her from the minimal interaction in the first few chapters.

Between Zane and Leon -I can't decide. I have a soft spot for both.

Favorite scene/quote:  Rae accidently summoning Leon at Saint Thaddeus is tied with that ULTRA creepy scene with Rae stuck in her car and petrifying tall bipedal-humanoid antlered creatures staring her down in the street.
