Book review: Crush

 Hi everyone,

I recently finished Crush by Tracy Wolff. I gave this book 4.5 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.  I was so excited to start this one. Especially after Crave, I was in love with this series. This one was pretty good I still enjoyed it but I thought it was a little long and I had to take breaks when reading this one. Make sure you've read the book before reading any further. 

This one picks up where Crave left off. Grace is totally stuck in stone and is just now being brought back months later with Hudson. Whooo boy Hudson is swoon-worthy for sure. I really like the way this started out with Grace not remembering what happened. But even by the end of Crush she still doesn't remember what happened between her and Hudson in the time they were trapped together. 

I did like that we get to see what Ludaires tournament is like though which is pretty awesome. We also get to see that Grace is learning to use her powers as a gargoyle. I almost wish it would have been so long though like this one dragged a little through many parts. I also like that there were several different "quests" Grace, Jaxon, and the whole group goes on that was very interesting. Again I think it could have been a little shorter though since this was a hefty book at over 600 pages. 

Now the icing on the cake was definitely the last 100 pages or so. OMG, it was crazy what went down between grace and Jaxon and Hudsens dad and Grace and Hudson. Since Grace decided to compete for a real spot on the Circle Cyrus Jaxons and Hudson's father made it so hard on her and he causes Jaxons and her mating bond to break. But that totally fine cause finally at the end we see that Hudson has a bond with her too. EEKKK totally great. 

I would recommend this book. I really enjoyed it for the most part it was pretty long though I wish it would have been a bit shorter. 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: Sweep Volume 1

   Hi everyone,

I recently finished Sweep volume 1 by Cate Tiernan. I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading in to 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 in to the review. I'll keep this as spoiler free since this is a bind up review of the first three books.  So I was super excited to get to this series I love witchy books. This one did not disappoint in that it was full of magic and mystery. I really liked that we got a little along as far as the mystery went. I did like that we have flash back between daughter and mother so that we can figure out how things came about. I also really love the magic parts in the all the books. Plus the love interest is definitely great and I believe that as this series goes on we get a little love triangle, can't wait to see if that's true.

One thing I didn't like is that some of the forwards at the beginning of the chapters didn't really say who was narrating which I think makes it a little hard to understand. I not big on multiple points of view to begin with but it makes it harder if it doesn't say which character is speaking. 

Overall I would recommend this series so far. I definitely want to continue on with and get the next few books and see where they go. If you have read this book leave me a comment below letting me know what you thought. 

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 through out my blog.

Book Review: A Storm of Mist and Thunder

   Hi everyone,

I recently finished A Storm of Mist and Thunder by Marion Blackwood. I gave this book 4.9 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading in to my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my December TBR 2020 and November wrap up on TikTok @brinadancer to see it and the other books I'm reading this month. I also have up a book haul of books I've recently gotten over there as well. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. Also, I received an ARC of this book from the author. So huge thank you to Marion Blackwood to sending me this book.

Hopping on in to the review. Before reading this make sure you've read the other books in the series. I'd hate to spoil anything for you!  I was super excited to get this one and start it. I love Storm as a character and couldn't wait to see where this one went since finally we were going to go see more about the storm casters. I really couldn't wait to see what they were all about. I will say that you really have to have read all the other books to really understand everything that is happening in this one.
Next if you have read my previous reviews you know I am a huge fan of having some Storm and Shade action. At the end of the last book I was like nah they have given up but the tension is like hit a boiling point and they are so ready for each other. I'm totally here for it, I love it! I hope that eventually they end up together but their tension is a great added touch. 
Lastly I would love to have a map since now the world it literally huge and our character are all over the place and we've added a new city. I love though that the world is ever expanding and adding new challenges for Storm. 

Overall I would recommended this book especially if you love Storm and read the other books so far. I really think that one we finally get to see more about Storms powers and learning to control them along with a good action packed story. This also a fairly easy read so it's good to pick up and read almost all at once. I want to again say thank you to Marion Blackwood for sending me this book. It was great and I can't wait for the next one A Storm of Blood and Swords. 

Lastly, if your looking for other books I have reviews up for the other first book and second book in Marion;s series.  A Storm of Silver and Ash , A Storm of Shadows and Pearls , A Storm of Smoke and Flame, A Storm of A Storm of Glass and Stars

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 through out my blog.

Book Review: Under the Cover of Darkness

  Hi everyone,

I recently finished Under the Cover of Darkness by A.K. Barr. I gave this book 3.9 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading in to my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my November TBR 2020 and September wrap up on TikTok @brinadancer to see it and the other books I'm reading this month. I also have up a book haul of books I've recently gotten over there as well. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. Also I received this book from the author so huge thank you to them for sending me this book.

Hopping on in to the review. I'll keep this as spoiler free. So I picked up this book not really know what it was about. I will say that may have been a good thing since I didn't have any expectations. I think that the concept of there being goddess and them being sent to another world is a really cool idea and I like the idea that this was more of a high fantasy. I do wish that we had more world building since it was a bit confusing at times to tell if we were more in a high fantasy or modern urban setting. On a similar note I think it was a little confusing with the flashbacks once we got to the main action of the book. Also if you know me you know I'm not the biggest fan of multiple points of view unless there really well done, this one there were so many characters I think it was a bit too much since we get the knights, the goddesses and anyone else that may be in contact with theses characters. 

Moving in to what I did enjoy. I love the fact that the goddess had multiple powers I want more on the powers and how they are going to use them. I'm a sucker for girl power. I also really like the fact that each goddess gets a familiar. I think this is a really cool feature for each of them. Secondly, I liked the knights. Kayden is a really great character along with the other knights. I think these characters were well executed. 

Overall I'm glad I made it though this one. I would recommended it if your looking for a interesting read. If you have read this one I love to know your thoughts in the comments. 

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 through out my blog.

Book Review: The Falconar

  Hi everyone,
I recently finished The Falconar by Elizabeth May. I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars on Goodreads. You can see more about what this book is abouhere before heading in to my review.  Another bookish thing you can check out is my September TBR 2020 and August wrap up on TikTok @brinadancer to see it and the other books I'm reading this month. I also have up a book haul of books I've recently gotten over there as well. I'd love to know what your reading this month let me know either here in the comments or on my video. 

Hopping on in to the review. I started this book the last day of our vacation and it's taken me forever to read. I didn't give up though which is good since I'm glad I finished it but I don't see what the hype was all about. I was totally expecting something completely different. I think the concept of the Falconar is pretty cool and I do like the fea but I don't think that the steampunk translated very well. I did like the tea set invention though. This one was just so long and Aileana was so caught up in revenge that there wasn't room for more of a story or romance interest. I wanted her so bad to focus on something other than her mothers death and do something. It was really like she was whinny about it. Not my favorite at all.  

I did enjoy the male characters of Kiran and Gavin. They were good balances since the main character was not the best. I definitely wanted Aileania to be interested in either of these which she slightly is but not entirely which was a bit frustrating. 

If you'd read this book what are your thoughts Id love to know. Do you think its worth the hype or not? 

Overall I'm glad I made it though this one but I don't think I'll continue on with the series. I don't want another 2 books of her being obsessed with her mothers death and a love triangle that goes no where. So I would say I wouldn't recommend this one, I think for me this falls in that Stealing Snow which I also have a review up for if you wanna check that out. This is just my opinion though. If you enjoyed this book that's awesome! 

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 through out my blog.
