Historia
Connecticut, 1666. An ancient spirit awakens in a dark wood. The wildfolk call him Father, slayer, protector. The colonists call him Slewfoot, demon, devil. To Abitha, a recently widowed outcast, alone and vulnerable in her pious village, he is the only one she can turn to for help. Together, they ignite a battle between pagan and Puritan - one that threatens to destroy the entire village, leaving nothing but ashes and bloodshed in their wake.

Magnificent piece of literature
Revisado: 10-21-24
I loved this book so much! it's been some time since I didn't want to put a book down this badly! I feel like this book captured the female rage and the hypocricy of religion in a perfect way. This was definitely a dark tale with trigger warnings of torture, so if that's not your cup of tea, consider it more carefully. This story really pained me but in a good way. I think it's important to think about the women that came before us and all the shit they had to endure so that we can have freedom of expression today, and even dress/practice witchy stuff for fun. Also I loved how vile all the religious people were in this story, and how they made this self-fulfilling prophecy.

unhinged
Revisado: 08-22-24
This was an interesting read but it was all over the place. I liked the atmosphere of the court and everything. Mild spoilers ahead. I kept wanting the author to pull a "Tamlin" on Basten and make the other guy get the girl, but that wasn't the case. I would also have liked both guys with Sabine in a polyamorous relationship, again missed opportunity. But some aspects of this book were truly UNHINGED. Like the fiance walks in on them going at it and Basten just continues thrusting?? the audacity. I liked the twist in the end about their parentage. Maybe it's just me but I can't like MMCs that are like "all other women that I have slept with in my life were worthless whores but I love you and you're different" I just can't like these men. Even in fantasies men should have a certain regard for all women, not just the FMC.

very MEH, waste of my time
Revisado: 08-22-24
where do I even start? felt like I was reading an unedited book. If I took a shot each time the characters said "your wife.... oh I mean your ex-wife!" I would certainly die of alcohol poisoning. The characters felt like a caricature, not real humans. Emma was way too crazy. I've never cringed more in my life than the scene where she wants to force Charlie to kiss her as practice, and Charlie felt too robotic in an unbelievable way. Both characters read like teenagers and not people in their late 20s or 30s. Anyway, save yourself a credit and buy literally any other book.

Though the daughter of an earl, Sophie has been relegated to the role of servant by her disdainful stepmother. But now, spinning in the strong arms of the debonair and devastatingly handsome Benedict Bridgerton, she feels like royalty. Alas, she knows all enchantments must end when the clock strikes midnight.

period men are dumb
Revisado: 05-09-24
I only listened to this book because it was free and because Benedict in the show seems like an actual decent person. However I was kind of let down! He does have a few moments of actually being a decent human in this book, but overall he is as much of an entitled dumb period man as one can imagine. spoilers! like I just can't imagine how a man can say to a woman that he supposedly loves "hey, let's have sex and I also won't pull out so you might be pregnant right this second, but I also can't marry you! oopsie! " the audacity! also, again, the narrator's voice makes me feel like my grandma is talking about her wedding night. not sexy at all.

Historia
Daphne always loved the way her fiancé Peter told their story. How they met (on a blustery day), fell in love (over an errant hat), and moved back to his lakeside hometown to begin their life together. He really was good at telling it…right up until the moment he realized he was actually in love with his childhood best friend Petra. Which is how Daphne begins her new story.

Emily Henry's books always hit the spot for me and this was no different. I loved Daphne and Miles' story. Although, my favorite is still "happy place".

I only meant to steal a car. I didn't know I was stealing a girl, too. Until the most gorgeous face I'd ever seen popped up in the rear-view mirror. I fell hard, fast, and forever.... But she tore out my heart - left me alone and bleeding. How can I forget her, when I have to see that damned perfect face on billboards and magazines? It's torture. Nine long years. I thought I moved on. Then I saw her in the flesh....

the pregnancy trope is not the vibe
Revisado: 04-14-24
I shouldn't go into these books expecting healthy relationships and mentally sound men, but goddamn it some of the sex scenes in this book felt downright rape-y. There is no verbal consent, and no talk of consent towards birth control, or should I say lack there of. Also, these books should come with trigger warnings. For the people out there, this one contains a unwanted pregnancy. Also, the last sex scene where she said "put a baby in me" multiple times was so cringe. yikes

underwhelming
Revisado: 04-07-24
I'd heard so many good reviews about this book, that it had given people the "feels", but honestly it just felt super underwhelming for me. I'm not sure what I was supposed to feel. I had to really push through to finish this book, even at 1 hour to the end of the story. very bland .

Historia
In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters - James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna - join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten words and ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement.

I really enjoyed this book and the sisters' stories! It got slighlty convoluted in ways I didn't understand in the end, but still a very enjoyable book.

Adina Walker has known this the entire time she’s been on scholarship at the prestigious Edgewater Academy—a school for the rich (and mostly white) upper class of New England. It’s why she works so hard to be perfect and above reproach, no matter what she must force beneath the surface. Even one slip can cost you everything.

not as good as book 1
Revisado: 03-02-24
this is almost an exact copy of the Beauty and the Beast plot, except here, Niko does not have any of the Beast's redeeming qualities! I'm sorry but just protecting Nessa from the hoards of rapey gangster men that Niko sorrounds himself with is not enough! I felt bad for Nessa the entire tim. The power balance was just so off and not in an enjoyable way. While in book1 Aida and Callum seemed to be the same level of crazy and bratty, here there was a huge disconnect between Nessa's virgin character and Niko. Also, Niko just practically hated all women, and I could not bring myself to like him, not even a little.
