Olivie Blake, Little Chmura: La Petite Mort (Paperback, 2019, Witch Way Publishing)

Review of 'La Petite Mort' on 'Goodreads'

Olivie Blake and vampires just mesh well, it was short and in that sense easy to read, but I feel like I had skipped some scenes and was a little lost at times, but in 200 pages I felt for the characters and enjoyed the plot

Ana Huang: King of Wrath (2022, Little, Brown Book Group Limited)

Ruthless. Meticulous. Arrogant. Dante Russo thrives on control, both personally and professionally. The billionaire CEO …

Review of 'King of Wrath' on 'Goodreads'

3.5 I enjoyed the characters, especially Vivian, I thought I wouldn't, from the glimpses of her in Twisted Lies, but she was great, Dante is not bad but also not my type haha, Ana Huang's books are so easy to read though

Review of 'Fourth Wing' on 'Goodreads'

Very entertaining, the writing was better than I expected, reading some reviews, the plot was actually the best part of this book I think, and I liked the characters (and romance

Lana Ferguson: Nanny (2023, Penguin Publishing Group)

Review of 'Nanny' on 'Goodreads'

I was curious about this romance following an ex cam girl being the nanny for the kid of her ex top subscriber/crush, well it was done well enough haha i liked the kid and the crazy grandma character, even though I enjoyed the romance, the sexy scenes were hot but too numerous for me compared to "romantic" moments between the two, book was too long too, still good^^

A. Y. Chao: Shanghai Immortal (2023, Hodder & Stoughton)

Review of 'Shanghai Immortal' on 'Goodreads'

I liked the setting in "Hell" Shanghai, then mortal shanghai, and even other parts of the Heavenly Realm (all in less than 350 pages)

This author draws on mythology, while having Ling, a fresh, "irreverent character with familial and societal values close to her diaspora heart" (true, she's half goddess half vampire) and a 1930s Shanghai setting to boost it up

Christina Lauren: The True Love Experiment (Hardcover, 2023, Gallery Books)

Review of 'The True Love Experiment' on 'Goodreads'

Like the Soulmate Equation, i loved how the authors played with this DNA app that finds your soulmate, the characters were fun and interesting, Fizzy is very funny, it was a bit long but I was into it for most of the book, I enjoyed the ending

Also loved seeing the fangirlism from the authors in the aknowledgements, purple blood for life

Review of 'Toaru Majutsu no Kinshomokuroku - A Magical Index Librorum Prohibitorum - Vol. 6' on 'Goodreads'

I dont know if this series is underrated, or I just dont know it, but I enjoy it, even with the art style not being to my taste or the story not being that original, the character work is great

reviewed Paladin's Strength by T. Kingfisher (The Saint of Steel, #2)

T. Kingfisher: Paladin's Strength (Hardcover, 2021, Argyll Productions)

He’s a paladin of a dead god, tracking a supernatural killer across a continent. She’s …

Review of "Paladin's Strength" on 'Goodreads'

Book 2 following a different paladin, and though the romance was good, I loved the characters they were so cute, but the plot takes a lot of "page time", and I was not a fan of it, plus it was, or felt, very long, but it had a lot of funny moments^^
