Book Review: Crave

Hi everyone,

I recently finished Crave by Tracy Wolff. I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading into my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my TikTok @brinadancer to see all the books I'm reading this month. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. 

Hopping on into the review.  Where to start with this one. OMG it was amazing. I absolutely loved it.
It's been quite a while since I got a book that I thought was this good to the point that I didn't want to put it down. If you've been reading my reviews for a while you know I am a sucker for a good vampire book. This one did not disappoint. It really reminded me of twilight but with the show Legacies spin. I loved twilight, hate all you want lol. 

Looking at the characters, Grace is just a pretty average kind of girl till much later in the book. I love Macy, she's such a cute character, and the fact that she loves everything hot pink and colorful is just fabulous. And finally on to Jaxon Vega. Holy crapy yes that is what I want in a vampire. He is great and a  total badass that keeps you wanting more. 

The actual storyline super great I loved that the setting is in a castle for a school way up in Alaska. I also like that we keep one point of view till the end when we get Jaxons but these are all clearly labeled switches.  I  loved that we have all magical creatures at this school everything from witches to dragons. I think this really helps to keep it interesting and that all the factions are more like high school cliques and they don't mix... reminds me a little of Mean Girls and the sitting chart. Lastly, the way the "bad guy" is woven in is pretty good too I loved who it turned out to be. 

I totally recommend this book. I literally didn't even finish the first one till I bought the next 2 in the series with the fourth one coming out later this year. I loved it. If you have read this book let me know your comments below. 

Lastly, if you're looking for other books I have reviews up for Arc of A Scythe Trilogy up, Marked, and the Lost Heroes of Olympus series: The Lost HeroSon of Neptune and Mark of Athena. And  A Storm of Magic and many more throughout my blog.

Book Review: Ember

   Hi everyone,

I recently finished Ember by Jessical Samuels. I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is about here before heading into my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my TikTok @brinadancer to see all the books I'm reading this month. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. 

Hopping on into the review.  I actually received this book for review from the author and from Booktasters over on Twitter. So huge thank you to both of them for sending me this book for review.

I didn't really know anything about this book before picking it up and getting started on it. Number One: I loved that it was super short, it made it very easy to get through. So if your looking for a quick book to just plow through in a few days or don't have a lot of time to read this one is perfect. I will say I really liked that it was super fast and there was no downtime between scenes in the book it was almost like it was written more in a screenplay fashion rather than a book per se. Also, the language is a little basic I wish there would have been more variation in the writing style but that's just me. I like a good mix of words when reading a story. 

On to the actual story and not the mechanics. I think this was a super cool concept of Angle witches. It was definitely an interesting make-up like a crossbreed between angles and witches. We could have had way more of the lore on this. I enjoyed the nod to the bad witches  coven being called a "Poison Apple." We also get a lot of the supernatural thrown into the mix I'm not the biggest fan of shifters but I think the idea for more than just werewolves is a pretty good concept. I think I would have rather had a different type of shifter than a spider though a little creepy. 

Over all I would recommend this one since it is so fast and really just want a book for fun. I think this one would be a perfect fit. 

Lastly, if you're looking for other books I have reviews up for Arc of A Scythe Trilogy up, Marked, and the Lost Heroes of Olympus series: The Lost HeroSon of Neptune and Mark of Athena. And  A Storm of Magic and many more throughout my blog.

Book Review: The Winner's Curse

    Hi everyone,

I recently finished The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkoski. I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading into my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my TikTok @brinadancer to see all the books I'm reading this month. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. 

Hopping on into the review.  I picked this one up because had finished watching Bridgerton and I wanted a book that had those kinda vibes but with a little more action. I love Bridgerton but I'm not sure how well that would translate to a book since I'm not the biggest fan of romance books. I did like the way this one started out it was a really good setup. I also love Kestrel and Arin. I almost wish they had a little bit more going on between them. At least in this book Kestrel really struggles internally with trying to make up her mind about Arin. Also, side note I want a game of bite and sting now. It sounded super fun and interesting. 

I will say the first part of this book is great. I was really into it but then in the middle, I got a little bored and wanted things to go a little faster. I like things to move pretty quickly,  now the last 40 pages or so picked back up the pace which I like and it made me want to read the next books to see what happens between Kestrel and Arin. 

Overall I would recommend this book I think it's worth a read especially if you like a period fantasy with light romance with action. 

Lastly, if your looking for other books I have reviews up for Arc of A Scythe Trilogy up, Marked, and the Lost Heroes of Olympus series: The Lost HeroSon of Neptune and Mark of Athena. And  A Storm of Magic and many more throughout my blog.
