For all the girls who were disappointed when the beast turned into a prince in Beauty & the Beast, this book is literally for you. Not only he stays the beast, but he also has horns in his human form 🤭

Second book in the Sirens of Adria series, Of Rime and Ruin is a beauty and the beast x little mermaid romantasy book with beast shifter and an arctic mermaid twist. And girls, it did not disappoint.

I'm literally obsessed w this series. Like, it's honestly addicting, and Liesl's writing style makes it so much more interesting. The fact that this book was set in wintery location makes me melt further. I just can't deny the allure of a little body heating micro trope 😌 and I literally squealed everytime the aethersky was mentioned, like gurlll.

I can't wait for the next book in the series, but i just know that Of Rime and Ruin will always be my favourite from the Sirens of Adria series 🖤
