~ A Must Read in a Shapeshifter Fantasy ~
Revisado: 01-10-23
his is the final book in the series, and I have eaten up every single one. Having the audio version available is such a treat! Cassandra King is a phenomenal narrator who does justice to the series. She really plays Dahlia well, making the character come alive in a new way.
As far as the story goes, Dahlia has remained true to her core self. Without giving in spoilers away, she has also evolved into something quite new. Her supporting roles and friends along the way have developed, as well as the world(s) around her. This is such a unique story line, and is such an easy decision to pick up and read. You definitely won't regret it.
I do have to say even the villains/anti-heroes I find myself empathizing with, or at least seeing from their perspective. This is such a nice wrap up to an enthralling fantasy series I know without a doubt I will be reading again. It was also, just a little bit of a shock I was not expecting!!! While Dahlia isn't the most lovable character, she certainly is inspiring, strong, and extremely loyal. I haven't met a character or being quite like her yet, and it was such a pleasure to hear her story. Love, love, love this series.

Shadow Rising WOT 4
Revisado: 01-09-23
Probably one of my favorite books in the series. This is the book where Perrin and Faile finally get married and exchange their wedding vows. Nynaeve and Elayne are certainly stepping into their own as pretend Aes Sedai. Egwene developed as a dream walker. Matt goes into the twisted mirrors and comes out with his wide brimmed hat, staff, and memories of other battle leaders. Love Rand coming out as the car’a’carn and the development of the black Ajah, Forsaken, as well as the Seanchan, definitely a must read.

~Super Cute Re-Telling of Traditional Fairy Stories~
Revisado: 09-11-22
This is a super adorable modern day retelling of Cinderella. Absolutely love the way I feel, and character interactions. Ashley is a super adorable kick ass heroin. She hast to deal with haters, a dysfunctional family, and at times self-doubt. When a celebrity lands in her lap she is at least to say thrown off course, or perhaps may choose a new one.
Ashley takes feet into her own hands, and develops her own story taking us along the ride with her. This unlikely tail is riveting, unique, and full of “good feels.“ I like that Harry has a mind of his own, and we get to see what his side of the classic Cinderella story might have looked like. Either way, this modern retailing allows us such a fun way to experience the tail. Harkens throws us into such a fun spin you definitely won’t be disappointed.
The audiobook version is extra fun, Michelle does an unbelievably good job of bringing the characters to life, and keeping you captivated the whole way. You certainly don’t want to miss out on the audio version as you get an additional spark of life with Ashley and Harry's romance.

~Journey to Middle Earth with a Fae Queen~
Revisado: 07-05-22
This is my second time through this book. I read the kindle versions first, but when I saw the audible come out I knew I had to try it out. Titania is such a force to be reckoned with. The story is strongly gripping, and I can easily see that Titania and her entourage have done some major development in their adventures so far.
I had a hard time listening through the audible, but I gave it 5 stars because it's probably personal preference. I found the audio to be monotone, a little difficult to hear the words and not just the lyrical cadence of the narrator. It's possible that reading through it myself the first read through, I was picturing the inflection going a little differently for Titania. Overall though a very thorough performance on this fantasy journey.
Titania goes through so much, is so level headed, and well rounded. Truly a hero! If you are questioning picking up this series, you won't be disappointed. Fae, Middle Earth, strong companionship, difficult choices, a kingdom in need of justice only a young heroine can redeem!!! What more could you ask for in a fantastical journey to Middle Earth?

The narrator did an AMAZING job with this, I was so impressed by their ability to change voices for different characters. It was so easy to hear the differences and follow along with the story. Superb story telling!!!
Now for the story...What a fun ride getting into the next novel in this series. This may be my favorite one yet! Dahlia is continuing to develop not just her own innate talents, but the forces that be around her. Her world is changing, the humans world is changing, as well as other worlds all around her.
Dahlia is such a strong heroine, it's really exciting to watch her band together with some likely, and some unlikely ties, to do the right thing. She answers to no one, and to everyone. I just love seeing how consistent her core characteristics are, but how capable she is and just how vulnerable she can be when it comes to saving the ones that she loves.
Pick up the fourth book in the Nite Fire series, you won't regret it.

Futuristic Society on Mars
Revisado: 03-17-22
This was a story that was recommended by a friend of mine. It took a little bit of time to get through because of all the names and I had a hard time picturing what the characters look like and developing them on their own. All in all though the story is super unique and a really cool take on politics and society and breaking the chains of society.

Historia
The brutality of war was all Ian Troy had ever known. Peace was all he ever wanted. Fate had other plans when it placed the Crown of Stones, an ancient artifact of untold power, into his battle-weary hands. With one reckless wish, he ended a conflict that had been tearing the realms apart since before he was born—and paid a terrible price. A decade later, Ian is still haunted by that tragic day. Running from the blood in his veins and on his hands, he struggles to forget—what he’s done and what he is.

Best Audio Story Yet
Revisado: 12-07-21
The author has done it again!!! I’ve read another of her series, so I was really excited to sink my teeth into another of her fantasy series. With her story, and the narration this is easily my favorite audible. The narrator did an absolutely phenomenal job bringing this story to life. I haven’t ever heard anyone do quite so many different vocals, and do them WELL.
This dark, intense, and highly action packed story is gripping from beginning to end. I picked it up and simply couldn’t put it down. It was a little raunchier than I was expecting, so I had to take some breaks. The main character can be a bit of a rake. I would have liked to see a little more character development, which may be happening in his next adventure.
All in all, I can’t wait to read the second book and find out what happens next.
