Hello my friends! Today I bring you good tidings. While book 1 in this series I liked but didn't love, this one I really liked. There are quite a few repercussions in this book from book 1, and I was a bit sad as they played out. There was one part that made my heart ache so much.
Holy smokes! I love anything to do with faeries, and I have since I was a little girl. With all the fae in books recently I felt that this was a refreshing take on them. (Not that there is anything wrong with the others, there isn't).
What did I think of this final book in the series? I was underwhelmed. The first book was so good, and I had high hopes for the rest of the series. My one major problem with this book was it was pretty much the same plotline from the first two books recycled. I felt that it didn’t add anything new, or any more depth to the story.
I'm so delighted to bring you my review of Elektra by Jennifer Saint! Thank you so much to Flatiron Books for inviting me on the tour! Ariadne was one of my favorite retellings -- so I was beyond delighted to be offered this chance. As some of you may know I got my undergrad degree in Classics and History.
5 stars because it made me cry. . So obviously when I heard Laura Sebastian was taking on the Lady of Shallot I was so beyond excited. I love when myths take women and put them front and center.
Malice is one of those books that was recommended to me and I saw on lots of lists as being such a great read, so I decided that it was time to try it and see if I liked it. I feel like I'm being overgenerous with my three star rating. It was really a 2/2.5 for me. This book just didn’t work for me on so many levels.
