Gypsy origins kristy cunning6/10/2023 What's it like to accidentally raise psychotic alpha vampire everyone fears, who drops a lot of bodies on his first day out as a 'gift' for your troubles? What's it like to be the girl who can't die.that everyone seems to always want to kill? What's it like to be a monster in a town full of monsters, who don't know you're a monster?Ĭomplicated and a little scary, but doable. I've gone and drawn attention to myself, and the ones paying attention are the ones everyone else seems to fear. They decide who gets stabbed or tortured. My only guides happen to be the most lethal of the bunch. I'm walking into the middle of a story that's thousands of years old, and I'm the new girl on the block who doesn't have a clue how this world even works. Somehow, I've gone and landed myself in a world truly filled with monsters, and I'm starting to think this is where I should have been all along. Unfortunately, most of the answers come from men.who aren't just men. It took my mother's death for me to finally start getting answers about what's really been going on. I've been labeled as one thing or another for most of my life: Completely unoriginal, if I do say so myself. I'm sure there are a lot of girls with old gypsy blood who see the dead, have killer cults hunting their family, and turn into something that gets scary when they panic.

Reign of brayshaw6/8/2023 The way they love, fiercely and passionately, is how we all want to be loved. From the push and pull of their courtship, to the possessive nature from both sides, and the intimate moments when they are alone, these two have easily slipped into one of my favorite couples of all times. Through these three books, I have been enthralled with the romance between Maddoc and Raven. These four became more than friends, they became family, and the readers, like me, became a piece of their family, too. Seeing them go from men who follow rules to kings who rule and seeing Raven go from a lost, obstinate girl to a defiant queen was more than I could have hoped for. I loved seeing the evolution of not just Raven but of Maddoc, Royce, and Captain. I don’t know how to say goodbye to a couple I have loved so much, to a story that consumed me, and to a world that I’m enamored with. And yes, I know we are getting Cap and a Royce’s book, but Maddoc and Raven’s story is done and I’m left feeling bereft. You know a series is good because your heart hurts that it is over. I’ve never read a novel by Maggie O’Farrell before this but the way she writes sentences is just exquisite, with full use of the punctuation available to her, she makes you feel each word and its intent. Above all, it is a tender and unforgettable reimagining of a boy whose life has been all but forgotten, but whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays ever written. It is also the story of a kestrel and its mistress flea that boards a ship in Alexandria and a glovemaker’s son who flouts convention in pursuit of the woman he loves. It is a story of the bond between twins, and of a marriage pushed to the brink by grief. Hamnet is a novel inspired by the son of a famous playwright. Neither parent knows that one of the children will not survive the week. Their mother, Agnes, is over a mile away, in the garden where she grows medicinal herbs. Her twin brother, Hamnet, searches everywhere for help. On a summer’s day in 1596, a young girl in Stratford-upon-Avon takes to her bed with a fever. Consequences aleatha romig summary6/7/2023 I have to say that I perfected my WTF face reading this book. What starts out as non consensual eventually becomes consensual…Stolkholm Syndrome personified. He assures her that he’ll release her once her “debt” is cleared and eventually she learns to obey him. He can be kind and generous one minute, and downright sadistic in the next. Claire quickly discovers there are two sides to Anthony. Her captor is Anthony Rawlings, a rich, handsome but brutal man who is hell bent on controlling every aspect of Claire’s new existence. She quickly remembers that she was abducted. There are elements of both but the author firmly places her book in the Psychological Thriller category and I have to agree.įirst things first, a synopsis. I have to place a warning, this is NOT a romance novel, nor is it erotica. Damn me and my lack of self preservation! First thought after I finished the book, “I don’t think my heart can handle book #2”, then I immediately went to Amazon and got book #2. I’m not even sure I should write a review in my state. My mind has just been totally and utterly mind fucked! This book went above and beyond anything I imagined.
