100 Days of Sunlight by Abbie Emmons! Squeaky clean, barely any innuendos if any, so much fluff but angst too! My favorite book and it’s soooo cute! 🌻🌻🌻
Mod

Minor spicy scene: (very minor, described as more cute lol) Chapter 39. Vows in the dark, page 308 until the end and the first part of chapter 40.

I finally got my copy of Divine Rivals today (borrowing from a friend), and I'm VERY excited to start it and take part in this month's BOTM!!
Hope you guys enjoy! I’m so sad I’m not reading it as it’s so high on my TBR but I am in the middle of TOG and I just can’t read more than one book at a time lol
I've already read this book but what I can say is this book was pure perfection to me. Roman is literally my boyfriend and Iris is literally by best friend. The politics are enjoyable for me and I think it is such an interesting concept. I LOVE Rebecca Ross's writing more than anything.
Mod
aww i love that!! what songs do you associate with the book?

If you didn't like it as much as others that is your opinion, and some books just aren't everyones cup of tea
I've read this in January and rated this 4.75 (so close to 5 stars). These are just things I remember I liked/didn't like things I liked
⤷I loved Rebacca Ross's writing. It was so beautiful but not difficult to read
⤷roman and iris were (almost) perfection
⤷also, fantasy world seemed interesting, and I'm kind of sad that there was only a bit of it
things I didn't like
⤷why was it so fast-paced??? like this kind of book should be a little bit slower. if the romance would be slower, IT WOULD BE PERFECTION. but it was happening so quickly :((
Mod
yesss I know! it's the worst! but i agree with that
