Currently on book 4 and I am just not really seeing anything special about Lance. He wants Darcy to keep their relationship a secret from her own twin sister even though Lance, Darius, Darcy, and Tory all have huge secrets together, far more important than Lance and Darcy being together (like the shadows and phoenixes). So what is the big deal of adding one more secret to their pile so that way Tory and Darius can know? Lance obviously knows Darius wants to be with Tory and has another idea for the claim of the throne(s)

He continues to call the people in his classes teenagers and kids yet he is dating one and is attracted to one of those “teenager”/ “kids” (I am really trying not to let my education and career of medicine and science ruin this book for me but it is difficult. So far I am trying to enjoy their relationship however, it bothers me Darcy has not told Tory yet)

It seems like Darius, Lance and Darcy all seem to be encircled with one another because Lance wants to please Darius and Darcy wants to please Lance, etc… I feel bad for Tory being on what seems to be the outside of this.

It frustrates me Lance doesn’t sympathize with Tory more for all the shit Darius has done to her and Darcy. I get it, Lance and Darius have that deep bond but undermining Tory’s feelings towards Darius is wrong. Her hesitation towards Darius is and Darcy is too forgiving of him because of Lance it seems like.

Does Lance get better or am I just reading too into things?…

I know Lance Orion is one of the most, if not the most, beloved character in this series so no disrespect to anyone who loves him. I am just trying to see if I need to look at things differently with him.

Currently reading the series for the first time and am on the 2 book where !<Caleb is thrusting the inflatable pegasus out of the doorway in front of everyone, naked>!

Crying tears of laughter because I am immersive reading this and it’s on 2x speed so it sounds fucking hilarious😭

I had no idea this book series would make me laugh but it is becoming one of my favorite series ever.

I am starting to really like Caleb and I lwky think Diego is evil.

I still think Darius and Tory are mates and that Orion and Darcy will get together, possibly mates as well.

As the title explains… idk what the authors put in this book because it is addictive !!

I see that this series receives a lot of hate (and I know I cannot say much because I haven’t even finished book one) but so far it is enjoyable.

Apparently many readers compare it to a television series called Gossip Girl— however I myself have never watched it so I can’t say much regarding that relation.

It reminds me of university except more intimate settings because you actually know people in your school, and a lot of “political” power, sort of like the richer you are, the more power you hold irl, or another example, the more popular you are, the more social status you gain.

I don’t see a reason to hate it (yet), but I am flying through this series. I think I mainly enjoy it because I myself am in uni and I’m around the same age as the main female characters, as well as me liking dark fantasy. Apparently this series has a very slow burn? I suppose I’ll see how that turns out, but I’m excited for it!

I am enjoying the magic system and world building, along with the plot. I think it’s something fun to read, kind of like how people watch The Vampire Diaries for pure entertainment.

(Also for reference, my favorite 5 star series so far:

ACOTAR,
Crowns of Nyaxia series
Folk of the Air series
The Empyrean series
House of the Devils series
ASOIAF series (5 stars so far, just waiting for GRRM next book)
LOTR series
FBAA series (up until that one trope comes in play… IYKYK)
Shatter Me series
Silo Series
The Witcher series
Crescent City (so far a 5 star series, unfinished)
TOG (so far 5 stars as well, unfinished)

* Side note, I’ve been reading fiction (and in general) for less than a year, so take that as you will when reviewing my references to see whether you might like ZA :) *

If you have read ZA, what’re your thoughts on it?

Started CC today on a road trip back home from uni!

I have read urban romantasy before (house of devils series) and really enjoyed it.

I feel like starting off from the get go it was information overload tbh 😭
But nonetheless, I’m enjoying it so far :)

I’d like to know your thoughts and opinions on {Silver Elite by Dani Francis}

The more I read, the pickier I become with my books. So I’d like to know what you liked and or disliked about the book :D

I grew up watching ATLA (currently 21) and I genuinely believe his character is the reason why I now prefer the “villain” and or “morally grey” characters in fiction, specifically Romantasy.

(He was thought to be a villain all the while having daddy issues and trying to be an honorable man, which he proved to be time and time again. And his redemption arc proved to be the best one throughout the series in my opinion.)

((Also I would have loved him and Katara to be together but that’s a complaint for another time))

& bro is fine shyt let’s be real.

Any recs out there with MMC like Zuko?

Octavia from the 100 is such a badass (who had every reason to have a villain era btw)

Her love story with Lincoln was such a romantic tragedy it broke my heart but I loved them together.

Any good recs that have badass women like herself?

Took a trip to my local bookshop and gifted myself some *used* books.

Also the sprayed edges on Silver Elite😍

And peep one of the little baby cats that live at the bookshop!🖤

Maybe I’m too much of a girly girl but I love my kindle!!!

I loved them together in GOT they were so peak(to me they should have been end game((as I’m not really into rape or incest)) he was the best option for her imo)

Anyway he was basically like a guard and advisor and I loved that he swore his life to protect and follow her.

Any good Romantasy books with this kind of trope?

Currently on chapter 20 and just thought I’d share this wonderful part of the book🥹🖤

I’ve been trying to read this but it feels a bit draggish. Not sure if it gets any better throughout the series…

Thoughts on this book if you’ve read it?

I’m confused…

So in Iron Flame at the beginning of the book it said a scribe was recounting these events…

Is this book written in the future, telling the events of the people in it, like a war love story or something?

Does this mean everyone in this book is dead and someone is telling their story?

Cardan from the Folk of the Air trilogy will always have a special place in my heart.

What are some of y’all’s favorite quotes?
