Will anything in this series top this? I'm obsessed. I literally cannot stop thinking about this book and these characters

Ngl I think Crown of Midnight is still my fave, but SHE'S SO GOOD!!! Long as absolute heck, but so dang good

LOVE the content of this book & took copious notes so I can implement these tips. The audiobook was an incredible experience because it wasn't the typical "narrator voice." Mel Robbins reads the book herself, but it feels like a podcast or coffee with a mentor instead. I have a hard time with traditional-sounding audiobooks, so I will absolutely be picking up more of hers in this format. 

The only reason this isn't a five-star read is that I feel like a lot of this information could have been condensed. Definitely still worthy of a full book, just a slightly shorter one. 

Interesting concept, but slow read. Included some great reflection questions that would be great to work through!

Each book of the Throne of Glass series I read makes me love them even more! I read this in the romantic order, so after Heir of Fire. Highly, highly recommend reading this way because this book about made me cry!

Do yourself a favor and find the Barnes & Noble Taylor Swift content and listen to those songs as you read. It adds a whole new layer! 

I loved Elsie and Jack! Although props to Elsie because if someone were to call me out as relentlessly as Jack, I’d probably have a panic attack. 😂 He was so emotionally aware with her feelings, but broski really seemed to struggle with his own. 

I’ve truly never read a book that made me feel this dumb (98% of science conversations went right over my head) but still kept me engaged the whole time. Hazelwood’s humor is top tier! 
medium-paced

A quick novella, but never gripped me. I listened to it and found myself zoning out more than once. Such an interesting premise, though! I think this would be the perfect listen for a short trip!

oooooohhhhh she was cute!!! and the christmas vibes were immaculate. 
funny lighthearted fast-paced

brb gotta to kick my feet in the air and squeal for a bit bc this is SO. DANG. CUTE!!! I also have three new book boyfriends. This might be my favorite thing Ali Hazelwood has written, which is impressive because I’m not a big novella girl. They usually feel rushed, but these were deliciously slow burns. Her writing never, ever fails to make me laugh or to brighten up my day. 

If you thought her first two books were a little too similar, this one is physical proof that she can WRITE! While all these wonderful FMCS are in STEM, each of them is so different along with their respective men. I love how each story was entirely set apart from the rest, but they were still all connected and built on each other. Plus that bonus chapter?! Yeah… don’t read these novellas outside the context of the whole book. They’re each good on their own, but soooo much better together!
