I fell in love with CN Crawford's books when I read Frost and this one is another amazing read! I loved the spy academy setting, and it being Authurion made it even better. I was not expecting the twist that came at the end at all. I already knew that my heart would be broken with that cliffhanger, but I didn't expect to for my jaw to drop too!

This was perfectly spooky, creepy, and mysterious. It gave me Goonie vibes with a supernatural and ancient serial killer. The first part of the book was a little slow, setting everything up but it quickly started picking up about halfway through part 2. I loved all of the lore behind The Stitcher, the town of Doubtful, and the mines. 

This was just what I needed! After my last read, I could feel a slump coming on and wanted something short, sweet, but still have some kind of world building. This was perfect! I read it in one sitting and loved every second of it. The beginning is a little weird, but after the first couple of chapters it started to flow better. 

Gesela and Casimir are so adorable. Casimir getting bossed around by the Magic Mirror was a favorite for me 😂

The fairytale retelling part was done so well mixing it up to be closer to a Brothers Grimm story with romance. I wasn't on the edge of my seat or anything, but it had the perfect balance of plot, romance, and dangers for me to want to read the other brothers' books. 

Themes:
•Beauty & the Beast retelling
•Enchanted Forest
•Curses
•Magical Creatures
•True Love Saves The Day
•Enemies to Lovers

I was looking forward to reading this and it did not disappoint! 
The prologue had me instantly hooked. I NEEDED to know how Alaska got to that point. I loved the lore and the characters. All of their dynamics made it feel like true "ghost hunter" vibes. If I didn't have adult things to do during the day, I would of read this in one sitting. It was so addicting! 
This is definitely a read that had me in my feelings throughout. I felt all of the emotions, mainly awe, wtf, holy shit Cain, the what now?!, utter heartbreak. I can't wait for the next book in the series!

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

This book. If I could give it 10 stars, I would. I found a new favorite that is quickly headed to Roman Empire stats. I'm about to devour all of Rebecca’s books in order to scratch the itch she gave me with Calista & Azkiel 🥹

We're thrown into a world of jealous, vengeful gods, monsters, a deadly tournament, witches, prophecy, and so much JUICY world building! One thing I absolutely love is a well developed and thorough world and characters. Night of Death & Flowers delivers that and so much more. There is a whole Glossary filled to the brim with information as well as basic information sprinkled throughout the book. 

All of the characters have really good depth. There is so much gray area that I was left just as confused as everyone else on who to trust. You want to trust the Gods, but which one do you trust when each one seems to have a different side of events? By the end of the book, I was absolutely fucking reeling with all the information that was revealed with Azkiel’s memories. Definitely worth the anger throughout the book of him refusing to remember lol. 

This is definitely a slow burn with tons of tension, banter, and high stakes action in between. My heart felt so full when they finally caved into their feelings and their magic ✨ mingled ✨ I love them🥺

I cannot wait for the next book😫 There's so much more to this book and I could go on foreeeevveeerrrr about it! So, please, pleeeease, read this when it releases!🫶🏻🫶🏻

Thank you so much to NetGalley & the author for the gifted book!🖤

This was everything I didn't know I needed! The different character's POVs made such an incredible world that sucked me in. I was lost to this book within the first couple of chapters. 

The beginning was a lot to take in, trying to remember who tied in to who, but everyone is a major player or at least repeating character so it was easy to recognize when names popped up. 

The world, magic, and story are so unique. It really scratches that epic paranormal itch, y'know? There's ancient prophecies, war, covens, vampires, time and space bending powers, spirit guardians, and so much more. I can't wait to learn more about both worlds, the characters, and Kane & Azrael's pasts.

Now that I'm finished, I'm #teamKane even though I wanted to be team Azrael 😂 

I felt all of the emotions. I loved that even though we get all of the MC’s POVs that added to the world building and traditions of the vampires & witches, we never got more information than Avery did until she learned it. Reading this felt like a movie and I'm here for it. 

I love, love , LOVED this book and I need the sequel right now🥲

This was a fast-paced, easy, and entertaining read! 
I was hooked from the very beginning! I loved all of the twists and turns throughout the book. I was constantly on the she of my seat wanting to know what was going to happen next. 
This was the perfect mix of enemies to lovers, forced proximity (using magical handcuffs), fated mates, and millennium curses. I can't wait for the Fall Court's book to see which Lord is next. I feel invested in seeing the curse finally ended in both realms. 

I'm blown away. Totally jaw dropping, blown through the wind, shocked to my core. 

We follow Eve and her girlfriend, Charlie, a couple who flip houses. While staying in their newest flip while restoring it, a family stops by right before a huge snow storm. The dad, Thomas, says he grew up there and wants to reminisce with his 3 kids and wife. Not so bad right? Wrong.

The youngest, Jenny, disappears and when she returns a benevolent entity starts stalking and warping Eve's perception of reality. Is Eve going crazy or is something sinister and ancient after her? 

I was thoroughly freaked out through the whole book. I was turning on lights and having a feeling of being watched 🥲 I loved the story and how it was laid out, alternating between Eve's chapters and forum posts about alternate realities and the like. This is one of those books that will stick with me. It was so unique, creepy, and just terrifying to think about.

Thank you so much NetGalley and the author for the gifted copy!

I enjoyed it! It was creepy with an eclectic MMC and a FMC who got lost in her head a lot lol. I thought the romance was amazing, but the plot lost me a lot of the time. Especially the vampire part? I just don't see how that got thrown into the mix. Murderer would of sent goosebumps and gave me the definite creep. 

Everything made enough sense at the end when Remington explained everything so no harm no foul. It was an easy, enjoyable read and it kept me from going into a reading slump.
