A curse for true love - Stephanie garber

i ate up fourth wing so quick, just like so many people did

there are cliches of course but i think it was something about the school of death and the training sequences that gets me every single time

dragons were cool too… and xaddy

me thinking about sera and nyktos knowing damn well i won't know what's going to happen to them for the next year

children of the fallen gods (the war of lost hearts series) by carissa broadbent

No but the shades of magic series is just Holland being "this is my boyfriend Kell and Kell's girlfriend Lila and her bestie Alucard who's also Rhy's boyfriend"

argue with the wall😔

Not much of a romance (as a genre) reader. Romance as a subplot in a fantasy book on the other hand tho..................I'm definitely there.

I just got through the first 2 books in the ACOTAR series and I am confused as all hell. It feels like SJM just completely retconned a whole new Tamlin last minute bc she thought of a new story halfway through and needed a way to make Tamlin a villain now. Tamlin HATED Amarantha so much that he publicly roasted her ass bad enough to the point of getting cursed for 49 years, still allowed himself to be taken as her prisoner if it meant Feyre was safe and free, had literally no way of getting her out during their one minute of alone time UTM (hello, Amarantha had binded all of their powers and literally walked in two seconds later anyways), stabbed that hoe through the head with a sword and then still ripped her throat out with his own teeth, and suffered PTSD from her so bad that he was paranoid of letting Feyre out of the house and couldn’t sleep unless he was in beast form guarding Feyre.

But sure, makes total sense for him to go to Hybern, an actual worse Amarantha 2.0, bestie of his father who he swore to never be like, master of the woman who destroyed his whole damn life, after only 2 months without puss, and sacrifice his entire character and moral code and grant Hybern total access to the human realm and therefore Feyre’s family so Hybern could genocide the entire human race BRO WHAT DRUGS IS THIS AUTHOR ON?

Also the flirting and joking Feyre does is so cringe I can’t even. She must be hot af bc I have no clue how else she is getting laid by all these dudes w half of her “quips”.

I’m gonna keep reading bc it’s like a train wreck on fire that I can’t look away from and also bc I have daddy issues so, ya know, *Rhysand*. But Tamlin is like the final Season of Game of Thrones’ Daenerys.

Honestly the only ones I vibe w are Nesta and Lucien bc at least they’re both consistent and both utterly over everyone’s terrible decision making skills.

Asked my parents to pick up my copy of iron flame, my dad decides to read the last page, he's all concerned about the swearing whilst I'm panicking hoping he hasn't seen anything else *if you know what I mean!

hi i saw ur post on legendborn and the slow burn/enemies to lovers masterpiece that is sel and bree and we hunt the flame has a similar vibe!

if u have found any other recs for books like these do share bc i am also yearning,,,

omg we hunt the flame has been on the tbr for so long!! idk how i haven’t gotten around to it yet! but now i really have to push it up the priority list for uhhh reasons

i have been recommended fourth wing in my craze over legendborn, someone said the mmc reminds them of sel and i can see it!

ember in the ashes i think has a similar vibe as we hunt the flame, not the slowest burn but the story is amazing like i really could not put it down. and there are other forces that be that keep the main couple apart lol it’s great

other than that i cant think of anything off the top of my head (at least that ive read lately) that hits quite the same but thats to be expected.. because sel and bree

Twisted though it may be, that was the power of love. It could usher in warmth and light, and it could also turn a single ember into a raging inferno, destroying those who threatened it. Love might be the worst sin of them all, with its two sides.
