You can see that they like each other but they hold a little back.Īlso, the mystery behind the hex could be worked a little more so we had more action and suspense. Their relationship is slow burning and I would have loved to see more passion from them sooner. The author made Mateo’s wolf has his own voice and the comments were funny. Wolf or as he is called Alpha has his own character. He keeps all these aspects of darkness in his inner wolf that is delightful. Mateo is a little shy, an introvert and kind. We usually see werewolves as mysterious, gruff and angry at the world but nope. Spending time with Mateo might help her and him but soon they realize that being friends is not enough.Įvie is a sweet character. He has no idea what to do, so he searches for the most known witch in New Orleans.Įvie can break any hex but since her family has been avoiding werewolves, she has to search for the solution. Mateo has been hexed that does not allow him to switch in his werewolf form and that can make him go mad. I have been recommended this story again and again so now that I had a little time, I said why not? I was so glad I read it because Wolf Gone Wild is a really light, sweet and romantic love story between a werewolf and a witch. I think you know if you are following me that I don’t usually read paranormal romance, so why pick this book? This was a case of social media made me buy it.

Good translations are those that render a book readable and enjoyable, So, I've always used a fairly simple standard: Read it in translation you can't know how closely a given versionĪdheres to the original. The awkward aspect of reviewing translated books is that if you need to It had its moments of devastation, but overall you got the feeling that everything would somehow work itself out.

You absolutely know that a series was perfect when you're equally sad and happy to see it end. And the story was full of surprises and unbelievable moments.

I also laughed and smiled and gasped in disbelief. At one point my dog came to check on me because I was crying so hard. And it will always be one of my favorite series'. Because what if it was awful? And heart-breaking? And devastating? How would I recover from that?!? To imagine how I feel right now, right after finishing the book, insert every possible gif of sobbing, devastated people. The narrative is set three centuries after a population of humans populate a landmass, which mysteriously appeared right after an environmental catastrophe. The Queen-of-the-Tearling is Erika Johansen’s best performing book series, centered on a heroine who is constantly grappling with the ethical dilemmas of becoming a just ruler, and the day to day realities of coming to age. Despite serving as a full time attorney, Erika never stopped writing. Thus, immediately after college, Erika Johansen became a full time attorney. However, because the program was somewhat biased towards fiction, a genre that Erika rarely enjoys, due to its cerebral tone and artistic prose, Erika Johansen found herself struggling so much as a budding writer. Over the next fifteen years, Carolyn had eight children and withstood her husband’s psychological abuse and the watchful eyes of his other wives, who were locked in a constant battle for supremacy. But arranged plural marriages were an integral part of Carolyn’s heritage: She was born into and raised in the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), the radical offshoot of the Mormon Church. When she was eighteen years old, Carolyn Jessop was coerced into an arranged marriage with a total stranger: a man thirty-two years her senior. A courageous, heart-wrenching account.”-Jon Krakauer
Traveling across cursed seas and treacherous kingdoms, Wil, Loom-and his ruthless sister Espel-have to work to make peace with their own struggles if they hope to secure the future of their kingdoms.īut when their plans lead them right back to evil marveler Pahn, and to Baren-who is more dangerous than ever-can Wil and her friends outsmart their enemies, this time, for good?Įver since I read The Glass Spare last year, I couldn’t quite get it out of my head for some reason. When she’s finally able to reach Pahn, nothing goes as planned, and suddenly Wil and her allies are fighting for their lives, again and again, as the Southern King is out to punish his children for all they’ve done. With time running out, Wil must navigate the dangerous secrets within her family if she’s going to find the truth and save the boy she loves. And the rest of her family must reckon with the truth of what happened to lead to Wil’s exile. The only way to save Loom, the cursed prince of the Southern Isles, is to revisit the castle and discover the origins of her own curse.īut home is very different from how she left it-Wil’s unstable elder brother is now king, leading a war against the Southern Isles. Wilhemina Heidle, the exiled princess of Northern Arrod, the girl thought dead by her family and friends, must return home. It doesn’t even make sense that i’m so invested in the romance since the romance in this series doesn’t even come in 2nd or 3rd place. when Orion sacrificed himself at the end of The Last Graduate to save El by pushing her outside scholomance while he stays inside with the monsters. the only saving grace for me was the romance between El and Orion and i’m blaming that on my obsesssion with male Heroes named Orion (sue me □). while the magic system is pretty cool, i quickly lost interest in this series because i don’t like Naomi Novik’s writing style, specifically the endless monologues of the heroine El. Initially, what drew me to this series was the whole dark academia magical school setting. The fact that this series is a ya fantasy, but i’m giving this book 1 star for the romance is pretty much everything you need to know that i might be focusing on the wrong things here, but i’m still so salty about this that i really don’t care. spoiler warning: i’m about to go on a mini rant and it will have spoiler for The Last Graduate and The Golden Enclaves. After i had a couple of nights to think, i can finally talk about this book. |
