Chapter 39

I can't believe they still have such a huge misunderstanding between them!!

Cuteness overload

Really wish I hadn't waited YEARS to finally read this second book, but I'm loving it. I do wish a picture of the wheel was in the front of the book though because I am confused haha.

*name redacted* is truly becoming my favorite IA male lead. OMG. He is Sean and Conner combined. He HAS to be the love interest.
I'm absolutely dying over here, poor Maggie having to keep a straight face with him haha.

Cozy fantasy books sound so charming, so sweet, but then I start reading one and become annoyed and bored in equal measure.

My mind is utterly blown and I kind of want to start the book over already 😂. This new information puts everything in a different light.

ok ok ok now we're getting somewhere.

A little ino-dumpy, but I feel like it has to be in a new world with all these politics. The background info helps explains her actions. So, I think I'll enjoy this more the second time I read it. Still thoroughly enjoying it--just wish I had more than 15 minutes at a time.

Also, OMG what a bombshell to drop on someone and then just walk out the door. Wow...

Was trying to put this ARC off until the new year, but no other book is appealing to me right now, soooo I'm diving in!
100% prepared to end the year on a book hangover haha.

How is this book not almost over? Ugh please…

Alright switching to the ebook because this book is so slowwwww. I can read (aka skim) through much faster.

Starting to think this should have just been a novella…

Yikes these are some complicated politics.

Chapter 1: there is a man in the house
Chapter 2: the complications
Chapter 3: secret room

It’s a lotta words in each chapter but thus far this all that they mean. Like each chapter has a theme.

The narrator is doing a good job and the writing is getting the fear across. I just also zoned out a few times and didn’t miss anything.

Bring on the anxiety through audiobook!

Ryan is kinda a himbo and I love him. He's a golden retriever fr with so much joy, but he's been forced into a darker, quieter persona for so long. It's lovely seeing him come into himself.

Wow how ghastly, he had to make his own tea! lol

Seriously, break up with him already!!

NGL her not breaking up with her abusive boyfriend is getting soooo annoying. I get that it's hard and I'm trying to be understanding, but UGH.

So good and so well written, I really wish I didn’t have to sleep.

Goodness, Brendan is so very forward hahaha. Dominic has some competition.

How is everyone not out of ammo?

I have the hardest time reading books that have such a huge sense of hopelessness. Just ugh.

Gideon is oddly animalistic internally for a contemporary book. His "inner beast" is always gnashing it's teeth and calling Kendra it's "mate" like girl if you wanted to write a one you should have done it haha.

Trying so hard not to cry, but this is so sweet and heartbreaking and healing.

This is so quirky, I'm loving it.
All I need are my PJs, a fluffy blanket, and some hot tea.

It's been a week, but I'm back to reading this. I'll listen to the audiobook as well to help get through it.

UGH is this where the "woe is me will work/our lives keep us apart" angst comes in because I'd 100% be okay with that NOT happening. Please let this be the one time they talk out their options like adults.
