This book took a while for me to chew on, mostly because I was reflecting between pages and chapters. As 4w5, I've learned to learn into my creativity, but it was also helpful to set where my growth opportunities are, in and out of the writing world. I tabbed my book, and plan to copy out the 4-related bold text insights into a personal worksheet and reminder set

Super easy to read, with actionable content. I sat with my Kickstarter campaign draft open as I read this book, making tweaks as I learned tidbits from each chapter. Excellent resource for Kickstarter creators, whether you're brand new or experienced.

And for our newbie friends, I know it seems like some of these hints and tips shouldn't be true, but they are. Believe Anthea and all the knowledge she's gathered from her amazing Facebook community!

This novella had me chuckling multiple times in the first opening pages, setting us up for a sweet, low stakes, no-spice cozy romantasy + Jane Austen spin on The Frog Prince fairytale. While this is book 6 in the series, you can pick this up as I did, having not read the others yet. However, be warned, I now have five more books on my TBR now that I've finished this book.

A delightful story, easy to read, and paced well enough so you're constantly turning the page wondering how Ms. Prokopovits will twist Regency England with this fairy tale. I wish we knew who the mystery magician was that bespelled our hero, though! I kinda want him to have a story, because I'm contrary like that. Could a spell like that backfire?

If you could look up the perfect mashup between Once, Lost, Winter Soldier, WandaVision, and The Great British Bake Off, you would find this book in the middle of that complex Venn diagram. Delightful read.

The first pages drew me in with the imagery of a woman crying out, struggling to get away from some dark force. It is a prophetic dream that drew me into this delicious gothic romance, so much so that I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning. While reading in those early hours, I got a text from a friend. I was so wrapped up in this book that my phone vibrating made me scream, literally. I dropped the book, my pulse was racing, and I looked about wildly, trying to find what had scared me so much.

I hadn't expected to be so engaged with this book, so thrilled and scared. I loved every minute of it.
