Bridget did it again! I really thought I wouldn't find a greener and hot man as Landon, but damn, Aaron has my whole heart and soul. He can take it all 😌💖✨️ That man has a dirty mouth but I was here for it, I was grinning like always on the train looking like a crazy person but there's only one name to blame for that! Aaron mf Blaze had set my heart ablaze ❤️‍�

First of all, I was already head over heels for the plot! I love a small town, a cowboy-esec environment because it gives me a cosy, warm feel, and the sense of found family was so strong that I never wanted to say goodbye. Bridget L Rose could write a thousand pages, and I'd want to live in all of them. You find yourself at the Silver Creek Ranch, overwhelmed with a whirlwind of emotions that will make you laugh, cry, panic, mourn, and ultimately, heal.

From the very beginning, Tatum and Aaron's relationship was playful, beautiful, and utterly flawless. They were like two pieces of a puzzle that fit seamlessly together. Each faced their own struggles, yet they discovered healing in one another. This brings me to another reason I adore Bridget's books! In this story, Bridget thoughtfully weaves in the experiences of epilepsy, panic attacks, and the heartache of losing someone to Alzheimer's. The portrayal is handled with such care and sensitivity, deepening my admiration and love for Bridget as an author 💗

This fast-paced masterpiece is a cosy hug with all the healing properties I've ever wanted out of a book. Bridget L Rose has officially become my instant-buy author 💗✨️

For all my small town cowboy lovers, you don't want to miss this absolute gem ✨️

I love this book to Pluto and back 💖😚✨️ ]]>

The Dark That Hides Us by Andy Darcy Theo
&ܴdz;⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

thank you so much to Andy Darcy Theo & Simon and Schuster UK for giving me this ARC!

where do i even begin?? andy’s gone and done it again with The Dark That Hides Us, totally beating ‘second book syndrome� (let’s be honest, I never doubted him).

Everything about this book blew me away, from the character development, THE MANY PLOT TWIST, the action scenes, amazing pacing, especially the more insight into the Elemental side of things!

The characters!! I loved seeing Alexis, Blaise Caeli and Demi again (and yes I totally lost my mind over certain parts of the story). Was everyone in this book sassier than ever? YUP and I absolutely loved it!! I was losing my mind annotating everything I could. No peace for the readers in this one though.

100% recommend! you won’t be disappointed "

Thank you to Andy and Simon & Schuster UK for giving me an early copy for an honest review and taking me out of those 2 years misery 💖✨️😌

Where do I even begin?! I've been sweeped off my feet, thrown across the room, heart hammering in my chest, rocking back and forth, and then stitched right back up again. [Then thrown in a spiral with that epilogue]

But first and foremost, can we give 13 year old Andy a standing ovation 👏🏼 of the masterpiece he's written!!

This exhilarating read was filled with twists after twists, emotionally wrecking my heart and soul, a therapy session that leads to a good cry , and most of all, a darkness that begins to rise.

Andy has once again captivated readers by weaving together the complexities of the mind in his beautifully crafted book. It tackles not only the struggles within but also the intense physical challenges that provoke me with anxiety. I found myself in deep reflection, wondering if I was experiencing a personal therapy session or simply engaging with Alexis's journey—it's a mystery we'll never unravel! These characters are my home [even Mortem, that man had me giggling], and I couldn't have had it any other way 🧡✨️

The stakes are high, the darkness rises, and a battle brims. Take it from me...he said, "You aren't ready?!" I say .I should have taken that statement seriously!!"

I can not give much away, but those 2 years were worth every second of these finely written pages with each and every line being delicately thought out. Andy is one of those authors where you thank the Fates for making him a writer !!! 👏🏼

Not long until this gem releases into the world, so if you haven't already preordered, then I urge you to 🤺

You don't want to miss the adventures, the trials and tribulations, and the fight against light and darkness, that is, The Dark That Hides Us. ]]>

The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie
"As a stranger said to me on the train:
" sorry love, this is random but that's a f* great book "
And I would say i have to agree."
