“She was not a rusty nail, as she had once told him, or a hot poker, or a blade in Ryzek’s hand. She was a hushflower, all power and possibility. Capable of doing good and harm in equal measure.”
It’s obviously not the best by any means, it’s just nostalgia for me at this point. The plot is unoriginal and done 1000 times before but Akos and Cyra really spoke to me. I loved them then and I love them now, they’re sweet and naive and pure...more

I couldn’t for the life of me take her name seriously, I mean Misery? Seriously? Quarantine would’ve been a less cringey name; because the moaning scenes? I didn’t want to imagine it.
But still, the heroine was funny and quirky and witty and just plain good? Every character AH created in Bride has my heart : Misery, Lowe, Ana, ALEX, Cal, Ken Doll, Serena, Owen ✨...more

The Devil and The deep Blue Sea is not one of them ;)
“Is he your boyfriend?” one of them asks, sweeping her appreciative gaze over him. “Him? No. Satan isn’t allowed to take a companion on the Earth’s surface, as far as I know.”
The banter had me laughing for hours !! The character personalities were so well written and had such a breezy plot line with the vacationing and beaches and bitchy exe it was easy to fly through this in a couple of hours.
The tension between Josh and Drew killed it for me! You gotta love a heroine pining after her boyfriend’s older Doctor brother. His overprotective, ”come repeat that on the shore, asshole!”, punches everyone who’s mean to her, compassionate asshole brother.
“Tell me something no one else knows.” “I’m madly in love with you,” he says, pressing his lips to my neck. I smile. “Everyone knows that. And of course you are. I’m adorable. Tell me something else.”
He’s the definition of falling first and hard, because man was obsessed since day one and didn’t bother hiding it.
“I close my eyes. “Don’t,” he says. “I want you to see exactly who you’re with.” “Now you’re the one who isn’t looking,” I say breathlessly as he pulls out. “There was never a moment’s doubt who I was with,” he replies”...more

Also, I’ll whisper a joke to you, and you’ll laugh because of my comedic genius. Couples are always giggling.” He types once more. “Pretend like Jonah is funny.”
The author did a really impressive job in making the relationship a priority without it being the only focus in the book. We’re given equal importance to the characters lives and struggles and how they battle with it on their own instead of using their relationship or new found spouse as an excuse to make amends and it’s so refreshing <3 (obviously I’m not faulting or diminishing the previous books I’ve read on how they dealt with struggles, I’m just saying that this was a first )

I’d rather have her angry and I’m pretty good at making that happen. I’d also really like her to be happy with me more often than she’s annoyed. I’d . . . love it, actually. Happy Natalie is a mission I want to go on and never come back”
win win winnnnn.
I was initially a little hesitant to get into this because I couldn’t even get 2 pages into secretly yours but I just had to give it a try for the tropes.
August Gates fell first and he fell hard. His determination to make things work with Natalie made the entire book just light me up. It was one of those reads where everything just worked perfectly together, the banter, the fights, the communication ✨...more

It was sooo annoyingly borins before that, the “shut up asshole, or I’ll waste you”. Basically, the whole “ i hate you because i secretly have a thing for you “ concept; while i like that in terms of more of a ‘bully’ aspect or from a grumpy hero, i can’t handle it from characters who just randomly talk shit for no reason.
But after that. Once they get together? SO SO SO GOOD. The sex scenes were quite literally my favourite one’s I’ve read in months. Kyran was an asshole in the first half and he gave in to his submissive side later on and it was perfection ...more

Something about their reaction tells me Santiago doesn’t laugh that way often. Can I make him do it again? I’ve always dreamed of having a superpower.
The relationship tween Santiago and Chloe was messy and chaotic and “laugh out loud” kind of funny. Chloe was a smart-ass, I’m a little different, eye rolling kind of girl and her personality perfectly complimented Santiago’s character.✨
Whoever makes up the most ridiculous story about our relationship wins whatever they want.” I laugh. It’s loud and unrestrained, echoing off the walls. “Why would we do that?” “Because I’d rather see you smile than cry.”
The fake relationship was by far my favourite one I’ve read, it didn’t have drama, questions,the push and pull i usually find in these type of romances. Both the characters were bold and blunt and completely open about their feelings for each other imo....more
