poorly written unfortunately
dark emotional tense

i was confused for a majority of this book but it's very well written and the portions i understood were very impactful. i fear i may not be big brained enough to interpret and understand this book to the extent it demands (i never did well at understanding the underlying message in books in english class)
adventurous dark emotional sad tense

god what i wouldn't do to be able to read this from the beginning again. loved that i did the tandem read bc that cliffhanger would actually kill me if i needed to read the whole tower of dawn after that.
informative medium-paced

there were some statements here and there that made me laugh but overall very informative and not really the type of nonfiction i've been reaching for (more witty and doesn't feel like nonfiction). this feels a lot like a straight up history book.

Succubus Lips

Lina Jubilee

DID NOT FINISH: 14%

we got dropped into a sci fi world with no explanations of any of these terms and i really tried to follow bc the premise was interesting but i was too lost to continue 

the ending made me so frustrated. honestly i feel it kinda ruined the whole book for me with the white man undermining everything a woman does and reaping the benefits of all her work. 
adventurous dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

so many people getting married omg. but i'm also glad i did the tandem read bc it simply made more sense this way

The Perfect Wife

Blake Pierce

DID NOT FINISH: 31%

i was having a hard time being ok with kyle's behavior which like i get we're not supposed to like but i couldn't read any more of it. also the thriller plot was not introduced/engaging enough for me to continue 
emotional
Strong character development: No

so like the smut is fine but all four brothers falling for the same thing??

i spent so much time hoping i would get used to mark's personality but i was having such a visceral reaction to his personality that i simply could not anymore
