Occasionally (95% of the time), I choose to continue a book based on how it makes me feel. For most of this one, I felt frustrated—but when a bond was severed, I experienced everything the character did, and that meant something to me. Also, I think I need to do a wellness check on my Vampire Academy girlies… too meta or what? See you in 2027, gals and pals.
Ugh, my heart. 💔 How do I wait more than a year to find out what happens next? 😭😭
I really wanted to love Onyx Storm, but it just didn’t quite hit the mark for me.
