Awakening the Dark Throne by Jessica Ann Disciacca

adventurous challenging dark emotional tense medium-paced

5.0

This is the BEST book I've read all year, possibly the best book of 2024!

Gen has had a hard life but she has her family, until she doesn't. She sets off on a mission to save her sister and what she finds along the way?

Love. Betrayal. A corrupt political system. Enemies. Allies. Magic. Dragon. Demons and more. 

What would you do to save yourself? Your loved ones? Your family? Your community? 

If the answer is anything, you're gonna love this story. 

I laughed, I cried, I screamed I knew it! 

BEST BOOK of 2024!

When can I have book two 👉👈

It's bitter sweet to reach the end of such an amazing series. I was hooked from book one and WOF did not disappoint. I laughed, I cried, I wished for more of Axle's story. 😉

I adore that the main heroine is my age. Not many 30 year old heroines out there, not many of us finding our way to Paris either 😉

I wish I could read this again for the first time!

The spice is 🥵 and the story is 🥰

This book is an interesting take on angles & demons and heaven and hell. 

I found myself laughing and rooting on our heroines. 

It's an FF, fated mates romance, not too spicy but very enjoyable!! 

I loved the communication between the characters and I can't wait to read more!

The first part of this book was 🥵🥵🥵. 

The 🥛 and 🐍... 🥵🥵🥵🥵

The build up 🥵🥵🥵

The plot twist mid book?! 😭😭😭

Then straight back into 🥵🥵🥵🥵

I'm glad this is book one because I need to know where my death trio will be getting up to next!

I totally missed the part where it said this was two stories in one, so it was a little jarring to switch mid book (my bad for alway  going in blind 😂)but when the stories connect it's totally worth it!

Thank you so much for your writing this! 

Iits a dark and challenging story that takes you on a roller coaster ride or dispair, hope and love. 

All kids think that maybe they were adopted at some point but imagine finding out you were really swapped at birth! 

It's an emotional ride but so worth it!

Built to Last by Jack Gibson

This book is for a very nitched audience but if your a part of that audience this is a must read. 

Jack gives you solid tips for how to build and grow your business and how to be a great coach! 

We don't share faith's but if you can separate yourself from that and place your spiritual path in place of his you'll know that having faith is the point and not what God you worship. 

I've set many of the ideas in this book as my goals for 2024 and I'm excited to get started.

First I was on my edge because of the king!

Then I was on the seat because our favorite hero will protect his loved ones. 

Then I was on the edge of my seat because I guessed it!

Then I was on the edge of my seat because I wanted to be a tree. 

Then I was on the edge of my seat because of darkness!

The sequel is just as good as the first book, tons of eade of your seats moments (I didn't even name them all).

If you've been debating reading this series just take the plunge!

Not my normal genera to read but I absolutely adored the story!

It isn't your typical ghost story and I loved the twists and turns! 

It's just scary enough to sate your horror tooth without creepy around your house at night to avoid spookies.
