Come back later - need a break 

Soft dnf - come back later

While I loved Foxglove, I prefer Belladonna. Foxglove was more about discovering more of the world and characters and I loved that! But the killer's reveal at the end didn't surprise me as much as the first. Blythe is one smart af woman. I was kicking my feet and screaming at the end for her! This lady has some balls. I can't wait for Wisteria to get her full story! I hope we still get to see Signa & Death though. I want to keep in touch with Foxglove manor 🥹

This book was the perfect Beauty & the Beast retelling! Eli & Fiona were absolutely adorable together. SL Prater made me fall in love with her gaslamp fantasies with Coven of Ill Repute, and this one doesn't let you down either. I loved the automatons, especially Mort, and the magic that everyone possesses. The world was unique and I'm excited to read more about it in the rest of the series!

I was immediately hooked! I loved each of the brothers personalities and that they were literally their star sign. This was such a tense, romantic, and cheesy in the best possible way books. 

The world building was amazing and did a fantastic job of setting up the rest of the series! I'm normally reeling after cliffhangers, but with this one I am super excited! The secret society really upped the tension and drama. I'm completely here for it! I really can't wait for the next book to see what all happens between the Brotherhood and how the secret society rebuilds. I do hope we get to see plenty of Fiona and Conner in the coming books though! 

I really, really loved this! As a Channeler, it's Estrella's duty to channel magic to her people. After being successful, she's charged with treason, has her memories wiped, and is sent to live as a mortal in a home for other girls like her. Can she get her memories back? Can she save herself and her friends? Who does she trust in the mix of not being able to trust anyone? There's so many questions and not enough answers yet 🫠 

I started out slow with this book because. I felt like there would be a lot to take in, and I'm glad I did. The author wrote such a vivid and unique world and characters that I absolutely LOVE! Everyone has their own role. There are sides characters, but you love them like they're the MC. And the high school drama? Love it. I was crying laughing reading about immortals who were forced to suffer through the high school system because they're on a mission 😂 

All of the girls at the home quickly because best friends and they're relationship makes me so happy. Each girl has a different personality or quirk and it makes reading about them so much fun. 

There's also this *maybe* love triangle? I have my hopes, but nothing concrete lol. I don't see what could away Estrella either way yet, so I'll keep which team I'm on up in the air until at LEAST the first chapter of The Immortal Heart 🤭

I can't wait for November for The Immortal Heart to dive back into this world of battling immortals. 

Thank you so much to the author & RRBookTours for the gifted copy!

I've been debating starting this series for a while, but always put it off because of how daunting it seemed.

I couldnt get enough of it though! I finished this book in a little over a day, and I'm addicted 😂

Tory & Darcy are put through straight shit from almost everyone. I thoroughly hate the Heirs and Orion is skating on thin ice. I'm already diving into the next book, Ruthless Fae, and I cannot WAIT to see the Heirs get their shit rocked.

This book was is everything. I want to compare it to when I read TOG, but it's just so much better! My heart is shattered but whole at the same time and I am not okay.

The book starts out with Diana calling a book from the Bodleian library not knowing that it was an ancient, spelled book. Hating that she is a witch and refusing to use her powers ever since her parents death, she makes minimal notes on the book and returns it. Diana believes that's the end of the weird book that called to her, but she soon realizes that by opening it, she set off waves in the paranormal community and now daemons, vampires, and witches are waiting for her to call it back.
Enter our MMC vampire, Matthew, who starts protecting her and quickly catches feelings while they try to discover how she broke the spell on the book.
Everything turns upside down when the Congregation, ruling body of creatures, catches wind of their "closeness". This leads to the beginning of a war, rebellion, secrets being brought to light and so much more.

I absolutely loved everything, and was invested in every single character-side or not. Each character was their own person with a full backstory and life before meeting Diana. The politics and world building were confusing at first, but I'm not a history buff or know a lick of French so google was my bff at times. Granted, there are plenty of context clues to know what's going on or get the gist of what Matthew and his family are talking about, but I'm nosy and wanted to know exactly what was said. I was fully immersed in the world that Deborah Harkness created and I'm sad that there are only 2 more books before it's over. 

I'm still so in my feelings about this book and that absolute cliffhanger that it's so difficult to say anything that does this book justice. Just read it, please.
