L.A. Slade

Did I make this photo last week and forget to post it? Sure did. Let us all take a moment to be glad I remembered to post it at all. These kids are kicking my ass.

I finally read ACOSF, and liked it better than I thought I would 'cause I *really* hated Nesta.

Book: Dance of Stars and Ashes by Nisha J. Tuli

Five stars. 9/6 on the unhinged love scale.

OKAY! Dance of Stars and Ashes comes out in two days! This is not a drill! 

As told in my rave review of the first book, I got this as an e-ARC and I'm still riding that high lol

I refuse to spoil this book, but let's rave about it a little (or a lot).

Zarya goes 👏🏾through it👏🏾 in this one and I was genuinely glad for the friends she found in book 1, 'cause damn she needed them!

Rabin is quite literally everything we want (including a damn dragon) - my poor husband keeps saying the standards set by books are too high. This is the only time I'll agree with him on this because I would definitely love him more if he could become a dragon at will. Sorry, not sorry. 

These two together were just glorious to read. The chemistry! The grovelling! The flirting! The secrets, dammit!

Alright now, first I want to tell you that the way this book ended was fantastic. But there might be some bits I have to (lovingly) fight you over and I think you know what it is. But all in all, I am very glad to see Zarya getting to go out and discover the world as well as herself. She earned that s**t while being hidden away. 

This book isn’t even out yet, and I'm already sitting in my window, staring longingly into space while I await book 3.

I don't know if anyone cares about my opinions on books. but if you do, please give this series a chance. You won't regret it.
