RAVEN KENNEDY, ARE YOU SHITTING MY DICK RIGHT NOW?
In all the ways this woman could have ended this book, I did not expect it to be THAT. I really wondered how the hell book six was going to exist and then HERE WE ARE YOU MOTHERFUCKER. Not only did this book have my jaw on the floor more than once, but then you just HAAAADDD to end it like that. I am so upset that September 24, 2024, was not yESTERDAY!!!!!!
Now overall, I did enjoy this book a lot. I'd say I liked it more than book four, but I had a few issues that prevented me from rating this higher.
First of all, the smut scenes are so oddly placed. I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't read this series yet, but as the books go on more POVs and characters get introduced and with each POV they have a love interest, which is also silly because why does everyone need a lover, but eh. Like the last book, a character would be pouring their heart out or just getting out of a traumatic event, and then their love interest just decides that instead of comforting them with words and just being there, they're gonna bang each other and talk dirty instead. It just rubbed me the wrong way.
Secondly, this book is too long. To my understanding, authors get paid by the pages read when their books are on Kindle Unlimited and perhaps that is why this book is 640 pages, but it could have easily been 100+ pages shorter. The beginning was a bit slow for me, hence why I took ages to finish this book in comparison to the others. The pacing just felt so off, but the books do get bigger as the series goes on so I can't really compare a 350-page book's pacing to a 640-page one.
Other than those two nitpicks, I had a really great time. These books are just so fun and addictive and I love a 'good' villain. I'm going to be absolutely heartbroken once this series ends, so if anyone has any fantasy romance books that are similar in romance or binge-ability, let a gal know!!! ...more
DNF-ing because I'm just really not into this. I got halfway through and it's not my favorite. I've been anticipating this, but I don't want to push tDNF-ing because I'm just really not into this. I got halfway through and it's not my favorite. I've been anticipating this, but I don't want to push through knowing it won't get better for me. This is a really cool book, just not the book for me! ...more
