My lungs constrict at the guttural comma (reposting because for some reason my review disappeared it wasn't even in my read books) "Run," he growls. My lungs constrict at the guttural command. "If I catch you, I fuck you." This was my first attempt at dark romance. I should probably have picked something for beginners, I think. I can't find it in me to see romance in this. I just can't. It's not even the stalking aspect, although that's creepy, too. I could still look past it in the name of dark romance. I understand that it's a common trope in this genre. However, I cannot possibly look past the non-consensual sex. I just can't! I refuse. How is that romance? How is it love? How could it ever turn into love? No offense to those who like it, by the way. You can like whatever you want, it's not my business, but I don't see myself getting on board with this.Regardless, I did like some aspects of this book. The murder mystery is admittedly interesting. I found myself genuinely invested in it and wanted to find out who killed Addie's great-grandmother. The truth was quite shocking and I liked that it caught me by surprise. Also, the ending is just as shocking. In fact, it is so shocking that I am actually curious enough to try book two and find out what happens.Moreover, I don't think I've ever related less to a character before, although I don't think I am supposed to, anyway. I hate to say this but dear Adeline has no logic in her brain whatsoever. She has enough sense to realize that what Zade is doing to her is completely fucked up, yet she still falls for him. I cannot tell you the amount of times I laughed/cringed at that logic. It is truly hilarious! I could forgive her for falling for her stalker, but how does she look past the things he did to her? Girl needs therapy.Furthermore, Zade is just as absurd as Adeline. His logic is even more fucked up. He saves young people from pedos, r@pists, and abusers, but creeps into a girl's home in the night to stick a ...more | notes Notes are private! | comments 2 | votes 48 | # times read 1 | date started Jan 19, 2024 | date read Jan 22, 2024 | date added Sep 30, 2024 | owned | format Kindle Edition | actions view (with text) | | | | | checkbox | position | cover The Curse that Binds (Bewitched, #2.5) | title The Curse that Binds(Bewitched, #2.5) | author Thalassa, Laura * | isbn | isbn13 | asin B0DN8BB961 | num pages unknown | avg rating 4.81 | num ratings 16 | date pub unknown | date pub edition unknown | toointofiction's rating | my rating 1 of 5 stars2 of 5 stars3 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars5 of 5 stars add to shelves | review None | notes Notes are private! | comments 0 | votes 0 | # times read 0 | date started not set | date read not set | date added Sep 30, 2024 | owned | format Unknown Binding | actions view | | | | | checkbox | position | cover Vilest Things (Flesh and False Gods, #2) | title Vilest Things(Flesh and False Gods, #2) | author Gong, Chloe * | isbn 139973914X | isbn13 9781399739146 | asin 139973914X | num pages 416pp | avg rating 3.98 | num ratings 2,552 | date pub Sep 10, 2024 | date pub edition Sep 10, 2024 | toointofiction's rating really liked it | my rating 1 of 5 stars2 of 5 stars3 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars5 of 5 stars add to shelves | review “Though you may think otherwise,” she mumbles, “you are my anchor in this world.

This series is like a warm hug and a punch in the gut at the same time. Ruthless Vows was just as amazing as Divine He dreamt of Iris Winnow again. This series is like a warm hug and a punch in the gut at the same time. Ruthless Vows was just as amazing as Divine Rivals. I loved the progress of the plot. It was very well thought out and fascinating. There weren’t exactly many plot twists, not many were needed, in my opinion, I could kind of tell what direction the story was going, but that was because the story was told in a way that sort of let you know what was about to happen. I believe this is because the shock factor was mostly reserved for the horrors of war, which was a good decision on the author’s part. Speaking of which, as I’ve said before, what I appreciated the most is the accuracy of how the devastation of war affected the world and the people, especially when those who were supposed to be protectors turned out to be opportunists. What’s more, I also liked the development of the lore, as there were several new pieces of information and revelations on the gods, their powers, and their history. It was also told in a way that felt like a story within a story rather than info dumping, which is always a risk when there’s a lot of information.However, one small thing irked me just a little bit, not enough to change my rating, but enough to make me roll my eyes a little. I’m not going to get into too much detail so as to avoid any major spoilers but the amnesia trope was present in the story (that’s not a spoiler, it’s in the blurb). I’ve said this many times before, and I imagine I’m going to say it some more in the future, but I don’t like this trope in the slightest. To me, it’s always giving soap opera (not that there’s anything wrong with soap operas, but let’s be honest, we don’t watch them for their quality). I don’t know if this is some sort of new trend with authors because I see it too often. After I noticed this pattern, I told myself that I would try to be more objective about it. I don’t want to be biased and overly critical of books I know in my heart are fantastic. This is why I don’t change my rating until I read how this trope is handled in the story. Thankfully, Rebecca Ross handled this trope pretty well, it was neither cliché nor cringe, which was my biggest fear.Moreover, I still adore Iris and Roman with my whole heart, and that includes their character development. Iris lost a lot of her innocence in this war, she went through things that would traumatize any adult, even more so an eighteen-year-old. Yet, she remained as kind as she had ever been. As for Roman, his character arc was similar to Iris’s, in the sense that he also preserved his kindness, the only difference being that his was a different kind of traumatic experience. He didn’t experience trauma exactly the way Iris had, but his scars were as physical as they were emotional. His mind was tampered with, his body was damaged, and he was as much a prisoner of war as everyone under Dacre’s control (seriously that guy was worse than Roman’s dad).Regardless, their trauma, as awful as it was, only brought Iris and Roman closer together. They had both been to hell and back and all they thought about was each other. Their love was so precious and pure. Nothing could keep them apart for too long, they always found each other. I may be a fan of adult books, but there’s something about YA romances that takes my breath away every single time.Finally, the characters I loved in the first book were still amazing in this one. Attie, Iris’s friend, was so brave and loyal, risking her life to help save the world. Marisol was every bit the mother hen once more, worrying and fussing over my favorite war correspondents as if they were her children. I also got to see a little more of Iris’s brother, Forest, who struggled a lot with the scars (both physical and emotional) left on him by the war. His relationship with his sister was sweet, although it was a bit strained as well. Besides, I was taken completely by surprise by Sarah Prindle, Iris’s friend from the Oath Gazette. She had a wild side I did not see coming. What’s more, there was a new character in this book that left an impression, Tobias Bexley. I loved him almost as much as I loved Roman. He played an integral part in Iris and Attie’s quest to end the war. That being said, there were some sub-romances in this book that I was completely obsessed with. Who doesn’t love secondary romances, right? ...more | notes Notes are private! | comments 5 | votes 152 | # times read 1 | date started Sep 23, 2024 | date read Sep 27, 2024 | date added Sep 23, 2024 | owned | format Hardcover | actions view (with text) | | | | | checkbox | position | cover Airpeen | title Airpeen | author Wilde, Holly * | isbn | isbn13 | asin | num pages 39pp | avg rating 3.31 | num ratings 450 | date pub unknown | date pub edition Feb 25, 2024 | toointofiction's rating | my rating 1 of 5 stars2 of 5 stars3 of 5 stars4 of 5 stars5 of 5 stars add to shelves | review None | notes Notes are private! | comments 0 | votes 0 | # times read 0 | date started not set | date read not set | date added Sep 21, 2024 | owned | format Kindle Edition | actions view | | | |
