Stayed up trying to get through a good chunk of it. It's been intriguing how the world building goes. Most so with the fact that the Commander wants a weird connection with her and that the driver is literally jealous in a world where he is not allowed to be. The wife also telling her to sleep with the drive because she knows her husband is probably all dried up makes me laugh.

I keep forgetting this book was written back in the 80's. . .

Just got to the "unbabies" part where "there's a 1 in 4 chance" that your baby will be messed up, but "the greater the risk, the greater the glory" says Aunt Lydia. and then we are given the phrase "to go through all that and give birth yo a shredder, it wasn't a fine thought". Yikes!

Chapter 7. These chapters go so fast!

Starting the journey...

When her ex-fiancé gets with her sister, and I try to put it into perspective with my own life and can only laugh.

On to the next one. Eurydice and Charon but also Orpheus. Last two have been poly books, so I hope this one can switch things up.

Bought the book in German because the book was so pretty itself. It's about 7 kingdoms that each is ruled by one of the 7 deadly sins.

Getting back on the Olympus Train

Fae school with a Dr. Xavier guy in charge

So wait. Josie has been with Walter since she was 15 and has 2 kids with him, Erin and Roxy. YET, Walter has two other kids, too???

So both women subconsciously hate their lives between dull work, husbands that add nothing, and children that make them more tired than happy.

"Death is a clean break. She glances across the room at Walter, to see if he’s noticed, but he is oblivious." Well, Walter. I hope you enjoyed retirement while you could.

Switched and already made a lot more mental notes. Like this part - "She glances at Walter, at the fading glory of him, and she wonders how different things would be if she hadn’t met him." Not even a chapter in, and Josie is already tired of her life with Walter!

I turned on this audiobook and have literally zoned out of all of it. Not a huge fan. May switch to actually reading it. If not, I may never finish it.

A reverse harem for sure! Caleb taking over has been quite the thrill. Still trying to warm up to the bear that is Kenunan. Cute to have Jake seeing what it's like on the other side of things 😏

So the audiobook has "That One Night" which is like a prologue and that was quite a bit of spice. Definitely calmed down now, but getting juicy with the drama that may unfold

4 hr car ride home and it finally came up on my lobby list

Him: You keep challenging me. Did I do something wrong?
Her: Did you expect complacency because we fucked?
Him: *flinched and becomes angry* So. You're upset.
Her: rolls her eyes...

Already annoyed with the guy and barely 10 min in

Another drive home means another audiobook started. I would fight over Petrochlus, too!

The girl does like peach tea though which I appreciate.

Cassie being anxious about Aiden finding out that she was the girl is starting to annoy me. The way it's written is just so repetitive

The conversations that Cassie has with Wanda honestly make this book so entertaining.

"How in the hell do you know where my stuff is better than I do?”
“Because you have the organizational skills of a pack rat with amnesia.”
- honestly me with Ross sometimes.

Her nose wrinkles. “What’s Shrek?”
"You’ve never seen Shrek?”
“No.”
“Sophie. It’s a cultural phenomenon. An epic love story. A comic masterpiece. I can’t in good conscience allow you to continue through life without having seen it.”

“Hey, did you know the middle finger is the fastest growing nail?” “Oh, to hell with your damn Snapple facts.”

Think I am finally getting into the swing of how this book may go down.

Not as hooked as Neon Godd, but maybe that will change.

Needed an audiobook for a drive. Learning to like the voice actors. They are growing on me.

Finally taking out the trash.
