So I just finished Heat of the Everflame…. Wtf? Just happened?😂 I’m so confused by the ending. Like where was the loophole? I can’t wait for the next book!
Luther Corbois. This man. Oof, my heart. The things this man says. I am swooning!
(Currently reading the kindred’s curse saga in preparation for the FFG deep dive and I’m loving it. I’m 60% through Glow of the Everflame)
Life’s been a little rough lately and I wanted a comfort read, but also to crochet so I thought, I’ll get the audio book. The book in question being Red, white and royal blue. Listened to the preview and my god that is the worst choice of narrator I’ve heard in a while.
The dude sounded like he was bored out of his mind and way too old. I was expecting someone to sound like they were Alex’s age, but no, some middle aged sounding dude is what we got?
I was so disappointed, like I couldn’t even sit through the dull preview because the voice annoyed me so much.
I’m seeing so many Onyx Storm reviews the past few days where people talk about how confusing and scatterbrained the writing was and I didn’t feel like it was at all? Like there were parts that I was a bit confused because we’re supposed to be along with Violet, but it wasn’t to the point where I felt like I understood nothing and nothing made sense.
Then I was thinking, maybe it’s because I’m adhd and it’s just written and paced in a way that works for my neurospicy brain😅
I know Rebecca Yarros is adhd too, so maybe it’s something to that? But also, this was the third book in a five book series. If we got all the answers in this one that would just not make sense?
Everyone’s different, and every experience is valid, I’ve just been seeing a lot of this late and couldn’t relate at all😅
I forgot how much there was I got frustrated by in Iron Flame, like Varrish who fills me with rage in every scene he is in and Jack fucking Barlow.
I also do get fed up with both Violet and Xaden with their communication issues, but I try to remind myself of how young they are and that helps. Although Violet is the one who annoys me the most with all the hypocrisy and the full disclosure bullshit.
I think it bothers me the most because she has grown up in a military environment so she should know that some things aren’t for everyone to know. She is fine with Mira telling her “you can’t know that, it’s classified”, but it’s not fine when it’s Xaden, like because she’s in love with him she should get to know things that aren’t his to tell?
He also has a bunch of things that he could have told her, but he has his whole you have to ask thing going on which is also annoying.
It’s kinda hard for them to know how to be in a relationship with healthy communication though cause they don’t exactly have a lot of great examples around them😅
Still love this book though and I’m beyond excited for the release of Onyx Storm next week!
Can we talk about Feyre walking around, for weeks, thinking she was alone and there were fairies all over the place and no one told her?😂
Haunting Adeline, Part II, Jesus Christ I'm not sure i can go through this book, dark romance my ass.
Haunting Adeline is well, pretty much a Tumblr fanfic about a stalker that likes gunplay, and while i don't enjoy the rapey part of it, i can unproudly say i've seen worse on this page.
What's everyones opinion on slighly eccentric, scatter-brained, slightly goofy villains?
