Okay, I finally understand the Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros hype. After finishing this book, I struggled to return to reality, especially after its intense ending. I’ve had this book on my shelf since its release, beckoning me each time I walked past, and I finally made time thanks to the Romanceopoly Challenge hosted by Under the Covers Book Blog. Now, it’s my goal to catch up with the series.
Your Knife, My Heart is the first book in K.M. Moronova’s Dark Forces Duology, and this was the first book I’ve read from this author. It’s a Dark Military Romance, and it truly pushes boundaries. The prologue alone had me in shock when it came to being introduced to the hero of the story. He is not for the faint of heart, that’s for sure.
I picked up The Winter King by C.L. Wilson for a Romanceopoly Challenge prompt and am so glad I did. Though it’s over 500 pages, every page was worth it. Having read C.L. Wilson before, I was eager to start her Weathermages of Mystral series, especially because of her descriptive world-building and characters.
Not My Romeo is the first book in Ilsa Madden-Mills’ The Game Changers series and the first book I’ve read by this author. I’ve been meaning to read one of her books for a while, and finally made time thanks to the Romanceopoly Challenge. It was one of those reads packed with tropes, including some I love in my romance books. This book had some aspects I enjoyed and was entertaining, but it won’t be a favorite.
I’ve always been curious about the Bodice Rippers from the 70s and 80s, and figured it was time to give them a try. I’ve never read one before, not even in my teens. Back then, I was obsessed with horror and fantasy books that were highly inappropriate for me, but my parents weren’t really strict on what I read or even watched, especially since my parents knew how much reading meant to me. It wasn’t until my twenties that I read Romance, and I haven’t looked back.
