Dino Magic #2
Dinosaurs, Dilemmas & Albert Einswine
Whoever said diamonds are a girl’s best friend, got it wrong.
It turns out, bones are a girl’s best friend.
Not that kind of bone� get your mind out of the gutter.
We’d arrived at the museum, and everything was going well. Okay, fine. That’s a lie.
It had gone exactly like the rest of my life had since my dino mates had come crashing into my life� which is to say, it had been a catastrophe of prehistoric proportions. By a weird twist of fate, we’d narrowly avoided being arrested after we’d destroyed the fundraising gala and terrorized the guests.
Things didn’t go as I’d planned for the rest of the trip, either. Especially when Albert decided to slip his leash and go looking for his own little souvenir to take home�.
Except, he didn’t go shopping in the museum’s gift shop.
And it wasn’t exactly a replica that he picked out.
Which really sucked, since the absolute last thing I needed was another dinosaur shifter to deal with�.
Dino Magic is a light-hearted romantic comedy series with a whole lot of steam! This isn’t a save-the-world type of story, but rather it focuses on Arizona’s coming into her hidden abilities. In each book she will be tracking down a gift, or a fated mates that been left by her great-great-so-many-greats-I-can't-even-type-them-all-grandmother.
This is a paranormal series, not a serious true-to-science series. So, if you are hoping to learn about dinosaurs, this probably isn’t the read for you. If you want to giggle hard enough that the people around you think you're crazy, then this might be the book for you!

|I fucking loved this one. There was a few surprises and they were amazing. I can't wait to read the next book. I love the dinosaur shifters!!

Te amo Albert Einswine, you adorable little ham 💖
Todos los chistes de dinosaurios al principio de cada capítulo de fascinaron. No hay duda que el harem de Arizona es bastante icónico.

Meu Deus do céu, eu tenho tantas perguntas. Tanta coisa não faz sentido. Foi um pequeno trauma e eu vou ler o próximo pq aparentemente não tenho amor pelo meu tempo.

These books are like a train wreck I can't look away from. They are painfully heterosexual and I wish the main character would just say fuck like an adult

DNF - 50% I’m sorry - you are signing up to put your dino mates in a zoo with an evil dude in control?? No need to read any further.

A great read with plenty of funny moments! I'm mildly embarrassed to admit that I made awkward noises at some of the dino jokes. Those groaners are dad quality material, y'all!
And the story kept me interested the entire time. I even read it in a single sitting (which hasn't happened in a minute!)
While there were definitely predictable moments, there was one big thing I didn't even come close to suspecting till pretty much much right before it happened. Looking forward to that panning out.
Also, I'm usually not a fan of single POV (which, excluding two chapters, this book is), but Sedona made it work!
The only reason I didn't give five stars is because of some typos and (more importantly) a few inconsistencies that had me doing a double take and are just bugging me.
Overall, I really loved it and can't wait for book #3!
Oh! And *SPOILER* I really like the addition of Ari's new bestie! I don't completely hate when RH stories filter out anyone aside from the MCs that could be deemed important, but at the same time I dislike when the FMC becomes isolated from everyone but her love interests as the story progresses (excluding toxic people, of course).
Additionally, Suli is an absolute hoot, & we'd get along VERY well IRL so I love her lol. She's definitely going to keep Arizona on her toes, & I look forward to her future antics! *end of SPOILER*

Good but
So this one wasn't edited as well as the first. I mean it's not terrible but Teresa and Theresa did start to bug me. It's mainly just that error but since it's a character name I found it really distracting.
I did however appreciate the new formatting where the jokes were moved into the chapter heading images to be easily ignored if you didn't want to read them instead of being part of the text.
The story was overall interesting and I enjoyed this installment but again I'm caught up on yet another series by this writer waiting for another installment which I find frustrating. I'm not a fan of a writer having soany series you're frustrated by multiple waiting on the next books from the same person.
It's good but the stories are short and I find myself wanting more.

“Tell me you did not just spear him in the anus?!� “No. That would be gross. I just poked him a bit and ripped through his pants.�
Suli is the BFF we all want and need in our lives. I adore her quick wit, sweet naivety, and perverse humor so much. I truly hope her mate is worthy of her whenever we find him.
Albert!!! I need more of him so very much. I cannot wait for book 3. I’ll be so sad if we don’t get more of him though.
Loved the storyline for this book. Loved that there was a protagonist and he was real. Loved how things got handled as well. So close to 5⭐️ again. May have found an absolute new fav author.

Never disappoints
Per usual Sedona Ashe has hit it out of the park with this book. Her characters are awesome. You always find a character that you would love to be your bff and hang out with. A male that would bring joy to your heart ( or several males) . She is a great story teller and its easy to get lost in her books.
A word of warning, do not read these in public if you have a problem with people looking at you crazy as you laugh out loud. The only complaint is I burn through them to fast and they are over to soon. Impatiently waiting for the next great adventure. Thank you Sadona

More dino sex* and hijnks!
There was a little bit more of an attempt of a plot with this one.
Arizona has the dinos masquerading as really advanced electronics - which is a totally unbelievable premise, but we're dealing with dino-shifters and magic here, so I'll allow it - but, oh no, someone wants to steal the technology!
Also, I 'like' how even Arizona's magic is mostly used as a premise to have more sex. LOL
It's also very inconsistent. Like, using the magic only increases the magic instead of dispelling it? Getting emotional increases the magic, but having sex helps dispel it? Meh. This is definitely a "turn off your brain" series...
I just wish Arizona would spend more time trying to actually understand her magic.
I'm not sure how I feel about Suli. While it's nice to have another woman in the mix, I found her kind of annoying and judgy. Doubly annoying since triceratops are my favorite.
Some shenanigans happen with Albert, though I can't say it came as a surprise.
* And other. Can't forget Jack...

Good
I love this series. I gave it 4 stars only because I got a copy that is missing the last chapter. Amazon is telling me if I delete it, I will have to repurchase the book. I do not want to do that. Amazon used to have in their manage your devices and books section a tick mark on books that have been updated, so you can download the new version for free. That no longer seems to be the case. I checked my manage my devices, and requested a new copy be downloaded but nothing happened.

I enjoyed this book and the only thing I can complain about is now I have to impatiently wait for the next book.

Amazing!
I loved this book! Such a great world Sedona has created here. Who would've thought of Dino shifters? And Albert... an amazing little piggy; love him! This book was easy to read in 1 sitting, which just makes me salivate for the next one. So glad Ari is getting better control of her magic. I wonder how many more will be in this series? Didn't book 1 talk about there possibly being 7 mates? Onto the next please!

So....👉👈 I really enjoy Reverse Harem Paranormal Romance books but, for showing what is essentially a poly relationship, they have a distressing amount of casual homophobia in them. 😒 (no snuggling, cuddle pile, "sword fighting", or "crossing the streams", even just softer emotions seem somehow taboo) There's nothing wrong with guys snuggling in their sleep, it's not sexual and shouldn't be viewed with horror or dismay.
That being said, I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for it to be finished.

DINO Love
If you love to smile, laugh, and have a story with drama and smexy time with a HFN ending...this book is for you! Sedona does it again by surprising the reader and making a story fresh. You will continue to fall in love with Arizona and her dino-men...plus a few other newbies. This is a fast easy read and will make you laugh out loud. Get ready for some great jokes.

Magic indeed
Thank you so very much Sedona for making me belly laugh while my heart is hurting. I so needed this! I laughed out loud several times, each one lightening the load I’ve been carrying. To say I highly recommend this book in reality read book one first, but absolutely read it!

so good!!
Ok seriously, who would have that a book with dinosaur shifters and besties were going to be such a great book?! I really can’t wait for the next book in the series. I kind of wish the author would do a quick release succession of the series so I could binge read them in a few days. 😍

Best book evah! I loved the dinosaurs and Albert but that ending... and now I have to wait.. my waiting game is getting stronger and stronger but I'm still not happy about it haha.
This book was fun but also angsty not on a great scale but enough to keep me reading non stop.
If you haven't started this serie and you want a laugh and unstable shifters this one is the one for you!

Amazingly funny!
I have enjoyed this series so much that I’ve read both books in less than three days! I would recommend this book to anybody looking for a good laugh some great steamy scenes and the best banter I’ve read in a book in a while! Can’t wait for the next book to he released!

Hello bestie! The dinosaurs the detective and the pig what more can you ask for ugh ove the way this book turned out even when I finished the the original script of this book and then the updated version with 3 extra chapters. Can't wait to see how the next adventure will go. It will probably be another dino deaster but I live for it

Okay, I need book 3 to be released NOW!! This story is simply written, including 'plot twists' you see coming from a mile away - but the story and feel good banter is so refreshing!
Loved the lack of cursing (for the most part - sex scenes should include 'adult vocabulary') and the jokes at each chapter head.

Such a fun read. Life is chaos and stress for Arizona. When you have to spend life pretending that your two dinosaur shifter mates are animatronics and your pig isn’t trying to terrorize them. 🤣
Love the reveal of Albert. He’ll make a great addition to Rez, Zon, and Jack. And Suli seems crazy but great.
Can’t wait for the next book

One of the BEST books i've ever read / listened too - had me laughing loudly, crying with sorrow and with happiness, a decent plot line throughout, complex characters and banter galore, and some serious steamy smex. And a pig, and awesome pig, who shall always be the pinnacle of all pigs ever, from now on!
December 23, 2024
Like in the first one, I enjoyed the silly humor. The plot parts and the bad guy were cartoony, though. I got more annoyed with Arizona in this book, with the way she forgot important things she was told, and continued each time to insist that she couldn't do whatever important magic thing she had to do before just buckling down and doing it.

Dinos, Deceit and Secrets
What an exciting book. This book was filled with secrets, a play on realism, and a brontosaurus shifter. I was on the edge of my seat and almost fell off with the humor infused in the plotline. This was book 2 and I can't wait to read the next adventure for this gang.

Loving this dino shifter series
This book was funny and sweet and had some unexpected twists. I think we all suspected what happens near the end but I did not expect it to go the way it did. I'm super excited for the next book so we can get answers.

Another hit
This one left me in my feels. Arizona and her men are adjusting to their new norms quite well when a few kinks happen in their plans. I absolutely loved this one, had me laughing and snorting at the hijinks. READ THIS SERIES you won't be disappointed.
