A bit underwhelming and then SA

Revisado: 09-08-24

I’ll cut to the chase, if you like the Brigerton series this book is not for you. Like most people say it has none of the amazing inclusiveness that the show has.

But to elaborate, the story is very basic. And I find Daphnes point of view somewhat frustrating. It isn’t necessarily her fault that she only cares about children but it does get pretty old.

I also didn’t necessarily like the spicy scenes, but that is just a question of preference.

My real critique comes to the very clear account of sexual abuse that does take place in the story. Daphne wants children whereas Simon does not. Daphne takes advantage of Simon being drunk to try to get pregnant. It was not interesting and didn’t really add anything into the story and Quinn could have come to this conclusion without Simon having to be violated.

The performance was great, no notes. Just the story I didn’t like.

Historical K-Drama!

Loved this book! The descriptions and story is in general great, I love the romance and the type of not super slow slow burn. The main character is fun to listen to and I enjoyed her thoughts and feelings.
I recommend this book if you love K-dramas and want to have a book that is like that between shows. I look forward to reading more from this author!

Decent story but great performance

Revisado: 04-03-24

If you love Howl’s moving castle this is a decent way to get some more content from that universe. The descriptions and writing is good, some tropes are pretty outdated and might not be for everyone.
There are counts of hitting children, as well as some sexism and the fact one of the villains is described as having a hooked nose. Otherwise a decent story with amazing descriptions of the surroundings and the magic is as always fun and different.

Captivating

Really good performance by the reader. I think he did a great job. The stories overall are also good no complaints but some of the other mysteries are better. I wouldn’t start with these two together but go with one that are more famous.

Good and captivating

Revisado: 01-16-23

For anyone who likes mystery but in a “cozy” way.

A good book to sit down and listen to as you knit or draw, and as a classic mystery novel absolutely marvellous for just light engagement!

Have you already seen the new Death on the Nile movie with Gal Gadot you might still find it entertaining since characters have been changed for the movie!

A super recommend!

Are you ready for a flashback?

This book is awesome!
I have such a hard time just expressing how good this book really is.
I have read it 4 times now. listened to it 3 times.
The story is well written, I like how Cline describes the things he writes about but if you do not like that kind of style this book might not be for you.
It brings you back to awesome geek details, things that most nerds probably know.
My absolute favorite thing is how it's just one book, and it is also from a male perspective. It"a something new and fresh.
If you like geeky things and you love Wil Wheaton this book is great.
