This novella made me so hungry for all the delicious sounding bakes! I loved Kiskeya and Sully from the start, they’re just amazing people and their love made me so happy! It happened fast, but it didn’t feel like insta-love to me, there was a great balance in the story of when they got together. So good!

I loved it! After hints of Jamie and Isaac in the first book, I’m so happy we have their story now. This book was lighthearted and fun, even when dealing with heavy topics like horrible parents. I’m so glad Isaac had Jamie in his corner for that! Seeing both of their journeys in their relationship was so sweet, and I’m so happy with how it turned out!

I love it, I love it, I love it! This book had me giddy and laughing so much, I just couldn’t stop listening to it. Wilder and Fable are both amazing people, their pasts making it hard to trust in love. It was great to see them scared, trying to fight the inevitable. They’re so good together, that even they couldn’t keep ignoring the connection. The setting of the Christmas games was so much fun, and I loved that the characters from the other books were there as well!

I’m a broken record when it comes to Lauren’s books, but grab the audio if you can! Jason Clarke and Samantha Brentmoor knocked it out of the park (oops, wrong sport), and the full cast for the other characters was the icing on the cake. It was almost like listening to a radio play, and it made everything even better!

I’m so happy to be back in this world! I loved Thad’s and Kelley’s story, and how they grew close together. The anxiety rep was amazing, it really described the feeling well. The hopelessness when it hits was so real. I loved the support that Thad gave, and the rest of the team as well. So, so good!

This book was just what I needed. The humor was so good, and it fit somehow in the darkness of the story. Don’t think I laughed this much reading dark romance before, I loved it!

Definitely check the warnings at the beginning, but I absolutely recommend reading it!

I will read everything Claire writes, especially set in Hickory Hills and with the Hayes family. I loved Gus and Margeaux so much, they’re amazing! It was great that there was so much focus on how smart she is, and how that’s a big part of why Gus fell for her. The meet cute was so cute, I already wanted to know in the previous book what exactly happened and I’m so happy with the outcome!

I knew I’d love Archer from his appearances in the first books, and I love him even more than expected. He’s amazing! Susannah was so good as well, and her struggles felt so real. As far as that’s possible when there’s dragons and magic and witches and demons of course!
