I was so excited when I heard Sir Horley was getting his own book! He's such a fascinating character, and I was eager to see more of him. However, I had a tiny bit of apprehension about the focus on Belle as I found her a bit annoying in the previous books but Alexis Hall absolutely knocked it out of the park. Belle shines in this book. She's witty, sharp, and incredibly insightful. Watching her grow and evolve, and seeing the depth of her character, completely won me over.
The friendship between Belle and Sir Horley is now one of my absolute favorites. It's heartwarming, hilarious, and completely genuine.
The story itself is a wild ride, full of the absurdities you expect from this series, but it also packs a powerful emotional punch and I loved every single minute of it.

This was a beautiful coming-of-age graphic novel. Tara's relationships with her siblings, friends, and crush are so heartwarming, and the use of color to separate reality from her imagination is brilliant. It's the kind of story I would have loved at 13. A really lovely book.

I absolutely devoured Daughter of the Siren Queen! This book is a whirlwind of fantasy, action, and captivating characters. Alosa is a force to be reckoned with – fierce, independent, and utterly unforgettable. I loved how Levenseller crafted her journey, filled with danger, magic, and surprising twists.
The world-building is vivid and immersive, and the supporting cast is a vibrant mix of personalities. I especially appreciated how the romance between Alosa and Riden unfolded naturally, never overshadowing the main plot. It was refreshing to see their relationship develop alongside Alosa's growth and her quest for vengeance.

I would have loved this to be a full length novel but can only imagine the chaos!

This was the perfect Christmas Eve read. I adored the Caraval series and loved the links to it (that I wasn’t expecting). It was very whimsical and magical and the artwork in it was absolutely stunning!

I didn’t hate it but a Christmas novella it does not make.

Eli and Nick have my whole heart. I love that we met them at nearly 40, and their reunion, filled with reminiscing and emotional growth, had me hooked from start to finish. I loved how their relationship didn’t just pick up where it left off but became something new and even more beautiful with them both discovering the people they have become.
