I loved stepping back into this world I loved the darkness of the story I also loved the romance it was really good. I loved the characters especially Maia she is such a great character doing anything she can to protect what is left of her family even if most of them hate her and treat her horribly she doesn't believe in love because all she has seen it cause is death and pain I loved her romance with Anax I am glad she got to be free and to also fall in love and have a happy ending. I loved the plot it is a Cinderella retelling with a more dark edge with a girl protecting her family from her mother and demons Maia meets the prince and gradually falls for him so she runs away and lies but even after that in the end there is a happy ending. So overall I loved this novella it was great to be back into this world.

This book was amazing a vast improvement from the slow moving first book I loved everything about it I liked that it read just like a fairy tale. I loved the characters so much I especially loved Vasya with her strong independent ways I loved how brave and determined she was. I loved the romance between her and Morokzo it was the kind of push and pull will they won't they romance I am really looking forward to where it goes from here. I really liked Vasya's brother and sister they added the extra depth to the story that just made it better. I loved the plot it picked up right where it left off going from hunting bandits to an plot to kill someone with so much pain and suffering spread throughout.

This book was pretty good the slowness of it made me lower the rating but the ending and its lead up made up for that I will be reading the sequel at some point. I really liked characters especially Ari and Dante I liked their friendship even if it took the longest time for things to change since one of them was in denial the whole time. I really loved their parents both sets they were such great characters very supportive they had their issues but I was happy to see parents in a YA book since that can be rare. The plot was interesting if very slow moving it starts with Ari and him starting his day at the start of the summer he then meets Dante and things slow down they meet each others parents Ari gets hurt and is angry all the time Dante leaves and Ari sets out to heal other things happen Dante comes back and he gets hurt so Ari gets even angrier figures himself out with the help of his parents and finally he is with Dante it was a pretty happy ending. So overall I really liked this book will be reading the sequel at some point.

I loved this book so much one of the best fictional retelling of Anastasia with a bit of magic thrown in. I loved the characters so much especially these three Nastya,Alexei, and Zash a strong brother and sister relationship paired with a well written romance with its ups and downs. I loved Nastya for her strength of character and her general love of her family and her want to save them I loved her romance with Zash even if it had ups and downs I was very happy when they were finally together by the end. I loved Alexei for his strength of character even if his body is weak I really loved his relationship with his sister and how that weak body hides an iron will. I loved Zash for his willingness to change and how throughly he repented for so many things I loved how he would do anything to save both Nastya and Alexei. I loved the plot it starts after the Romanov family are exiled after the red army takes over Russia and they are doing what they can to survive the story moves to Nastya looking for ways out and depending on waiting for magic of a doll many things happen and what happened in history happens but Nastya manages to save both her and Alexei with magic they find Zash and he helps them other things happen they get where they needed to there is a really happy ending with them helping the white army. So this book was really good I would read more books by this author for sure.

This book was really good there was many interesting bits to it like the mystery the draw backs to the magic in this story the romance and the sisterly relationship and the drive to find out the truth. I loved the characters so much especially Marit she is a strong character willing to do what it takes to protect those she cares about and to find out the real reason behind her Father's death. I really like the sisterly relationship between Marit and Eve and how Marit is willing to do what she has to so Eve achieves her dreams. I really enjoyed the plot it starts with Eve getting adopted and Marit becoming a seamstress so that she can be near her to move on into a mystery to find out the truth of her Father's death it had a really god ending will read other books by this author for sure.

I loved this book so much I will be reading more books by this author for sure I loved everything from the writing to the characters and the mysterious story that was weaved. I loved the characters so much especially Olivia a girl who cannot speak but expresses herself so well a girl that just wants a place to call home finds that and so much more while unraveling where she came from along the way. I loved the plot it was so mysterious with Olivia wanting to find out more about her mother and what actually happened to her at first it seems she is not wanted but she finds out that it so much more to it like protecting the world from an evil force I liked the ending Olivia has found her home as well as her place in the world.

This is an interesting manga I didn't understand much about it other than that it was an interesting read. I liked the characters they were interesting Phos in particular is a great character to read about I do like the characters around her as well. The story is interesting if a bit hard to understand I liked it maybe if I read more I will understand it better I liked the gem thing it is unique.

I loved this book so much it is my favorite of the year so far everything about this story was amazing from the characters to everything else. I loved all of the characters but I especially love Arek and Matt they both were so entertaining to read about even if they both were so oblivious about each others feeling for the other I loved how it all ended one of the best books I have read all year. I loved how even if the other didn't know it Arek and Matt just work so well together so it was obvious that they were soulmates. I liked Arek's chaotic character the way he did things kept things interesting I also loved the other characters they were a great cast of misfits. I loved the story it starts with the messy ending of the villain where after that Arek becomes king things happen they try to find someone else to take the throne to only find out she is dead and now they have a time limit for Arek to find a spouse so after that there is a hilarious attempts to woo his friends that go wrong Arek and Matt are so oblivious that it takes until it is almost to late for them to get together after that there is a wonderful happily ever after. So overall I loved this book I now am looking forward to whatever this author writes next.

I really loved this book so much I loved how it read like a fairytale of old. I loved many of the characters but I especially loved Miryem she was such a interesting character that went from just wanting her family to live to getting not so wanted attention to caring about another sort of people and finding a type of happiness. I also loved how all the POVs fit so well together seeing what was going on here and there there were many great characters. I loved the plot it starts by telling of a moneylender that goes to Miryem doing what she can do her family does not starve to other things happening her attracting a feared force called Starkk the story went from POV to POV telling their stories and how this is all connected it had a pretty good ending I really do need to read more by this author.

I loved this book so much one of the best standalones I have read in awhile. I loved the characters so much especially Jani, Zosa and Bel I loved the sisterly relationship between Jani and Zosa with Jani willing to fight hard for her no matter the cost. I really loved the romance between Jani and Bel it was not instant it was gradual they had such amazing chemistry. I loved Jani she was such a great and strong female lead that at the start just wanted both herself and her sister to make money to back to where they are from it ended up being a total nightmare with a few not so bad things attached. I loved the plot it started out with two sisters wanting to find a way to make money to go back home it moved into this nightmarish situation with an evil memory stealing and magic stealing man that became a fight to save many people from something terrible I loved how it ended it was just perfect. So overall I loved this book if the author writes another book I will read it for sure.
