Beautiful and atmospheric. Tirne is a herald of The God of Autumn, who loves her life, her god and her friends. Until someone shatters her world. As things unravel further and further like a thread coming undone you get sucked into the world of an endless autumn, betrayal and despair. Can Tirne recover? Who can be trusted? Can she save her god by repairing an artifact? This story had me glued to my seat.

A wonderful fun read, I laughed and felt things. You love Dora from the moment you meet her, her curse is a unique one. The bond between her and her cousin Vanessa is so special and what every girl dreams of in a best friend. From the moment you meet Elias Wilder you will feel things.. things I will not spoil but he’s like a if eating a sour patch with ice cream was a person. All to say I loved every minute of this sweet book.

A wonderful historical fantasy! Great cast of characters, steeped in 1920’s Washington DC, this story transports you to another time. Full of jazz halls and lively neighborhoods. The celebration of Black Lives and a magic system that makes too much sense! It’s easy to follow and you get lost in the heist! I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves historical fiction with a dab of fantasy.

Intense story, dark mysterious, witchy vibes. You really get lost with Immanuelle Moore the FMC as she tries to discover why she is the reason for a curse plaguing her small colony. The story slowed down in the middle for me, too many random events but picks up real quick, unraveling the mystery as things progressively get darker and darker! If you’re into curses, blood oaths, plagues it’s got all three. Overall I highly recommend reading it for a dark ominous vibe.

Loved the premise, but for me it fell a bit flat.
The murder mystery aspect of the story never became a real investigation, Lorelei simply seemed to just be throwing darts at a wall hoping to get a bullseye. The expedition I had hoped to be filled with folklore and explore the fantasy aspect of this fantasy romance book felt awkwardly crammed in with brief explanations that just didn't fully land. Unfortunately with our narrator Lorelei, she spent so much of her time not wanting to feel anything, I ended up not really caring for the characters.

If I could give this book 10 stars…
Vale is top tier book bf. He’s moody, funny and just dreamy. This novella has my whole heart. My sweet Lilith, she has a heart of gold, carrying the world on her shoulders. The slow burn romance is to die for. A must read.

Wow!! Fully immersed in the world of vampires is this one human girl who desperately wants to belong. The story is amazing, the relationships complex and the competition for audience with a goddess is just gripping!! You will NOT want to put it down.

The story itself is poetic, I loved the atmosphere. Margaret is for the eldest daughters, the feral girls, the ones who carry the world on their shoulders. The ones who never ask for help. The ones who never choose hope for themselves. She has my whole heart. I’m ruined for my next book because idk what will top this one.
