・:*:・゚⁀➷ 5/5 ★
STOP. This was such a stunning conclusion to this duology!! 😫😫 Romaniris are everything to me & i cannot believe these books were so exquisitely written 🥹🥹❤️🩹❤️🩹 Such a beautiful series 💐✨️
“Write me a story where there is no ending, Kitt. Write to me and fill my empty spaces.”
Tropes:
✒️ Fantasy romance
✒️ Rivals to lovers
✒️ Soulmate kind of love
✒️ War plotline
Reading Divine Rivals at the end of 2023 was like a breath of fresh air and it was one of my favs of the whole year, so i was so excited to read this sequel. the mixed reviews definitely put me off a bit, but i still ended up loving it!! 🥹🫶 undeniably one of the best ya fantasy series i've read in a WHILE 💌
“I would love to see you burn with splendor. I would love to see your words catch fire with mine.”
⁀➷ Plot & Writing:
Rebecca Ross' writing is absolutely one of my fav parts of this series. i genuinely think this is one of the best writing styles i have ever read 🥺🥺 Everything about her writing is so beautiful and gorgeously descriptive, and the amount of emotion she manages to squeeze into every word is STUNNING 😫😫💗💗 the little kernels of wisdom that can be found in her writing truly speak to my soul and omg iris and roman's letters?! it is, simply put, breathtaking 💐
I must say, the plot of this book really surprised me! 🥹🫶 Divine Rivals had a great plot but it was definitely more romance focused. however, i thoroughly enjoyed the plot of this book and thought it was significantly better than in the first. It's definitely still more of a slower paced story, but there was always something happening to keep me interested and i really enjoyed learning more about the gods & the world 🥰🥰 some of the things that happened at the end tho?! i'm just going to go about my merry way and pretend i didn't read that..... 😃💔
⁀➷ Characters:
UGH the characters in this series!! I love them all sm it hurts 🥺🥺❤️🩹❤️🩹 throughout this whole book, I really wished I could just give everyone a big hug bc their pain just broke my heart 🫂🫂
➵ Iris:
UGH I LOVE HER 💘💘 i really like how she is a bit more of a softer fmc, but she really came into her own in this book and i love that for her 😌💅 The way that she talks about words and writing just speaks to my soul and i have enjoyed every second of reading about her. she's too good for this world 🥹🫂
➵ Roman:
i didn't think he could get any more perfect from the first book but somehow he managed it. This man can just do no wrong and i love him with my whole heart 😫😫💝💝 he's not your typical dark, morally grey mmc but i actually really like that and his softer, sweeter side is my fav thing ever 🥹 my precious baby 🫂🫂
“Their souls weren’t mirrors but complements, constellations that burned side by side.”
⁀➷ Romance:
‼️ spoilers in this section ‼️
➵ Iris and Roman:
my new comfort couple ❤️🩹❤️🩹 something about their romance just feels like so much more than just two people falling in love- it feels like a soulmate kind of connection, like two people who would find each other in every lifetime, no matter the odds. the pure love and emotional connection between the two of them is so so incredible and just touches my heart in such a special way 🥹🥹 I must say, the whole amnesia/losing memories of significant other trope is not my fav, but I will make an exception for these two. I don't think I will ever stop thinking about them- Roman and iris have stolen a piece of my heart and they're never giving it back 💘💘
“And he thought, There is no magic above or below that will ever steal this from me again.”
“Should I be surprised that I was falling in love with you a second time? Should I be surprised that your words found me here, even in the darkness? That I’ve been carrying your E. letters close to my heart like they are a shield to protect me?”
➵ Attie and Tobias:
stop why was there romance so so cute?! 🤭💘 the perfect little side romance bc it really didn't distract from Iris and Roman, but they had me giggling and smiling so much. I'm so glad Tobias was introduced in this book bc I love him and he and Attie are amazing together!! 🥹🥹
➵ Forest and Sarah:
brb sobbing my eyes out in a dark corner 💔💔
‼️ spoilers have ended ‼️
“For anyone who sought a different realm through a wardrobe door, Who wrote a letter and is still waiting for a reply, Or who dreams of stories and bleeds words.” ~ how is even the dedication so gorgeous?!
⁀➷ Playlist:
➵ Timeless- Taylor Swift
➵ Never Let Me Go- Florence + the Machine
➵ You Are in Love- Taylor Swift
➵ invisible string- Taylor Swift
➵ Cosmic Love- Florence + the Machine
➵ Till Forever Falls Apart- Ashe, FINNEAS
“You may not be a goddess, but nor am I a god. Despite our mundane lives, perhaps we make our own magic with words.”
⁀➷ In conclusion:
A new all time fav for sure 🥺🥺❤️🩹❤️🩹 PLEASE pick up this series if you want:
✔️ Beautiful writing
✔️ Magical story
✔️ Soulmate romance
✔️ Amazing characters
✔️ Rivals to lovers
Error 404: my soul not found bc it nows belong to this series 💐💝
