As much as it’s a super interesting concept, i just found it quite boring and I didn’t enjoy the writing style

I enjoyed this, the five year time jumps and seeing where Van and Nell were at in their lives, their complex feelings and complicated lives, and my will for them to be together. But then it was just kinda low-key disappointing in the end and a bit sad I guess. Also really loved that it was mostly set in Cornwall because big up the South West!

This was okay. Found the following of the three diff girl’s stories a little jarring tbh and didn’t find that I fell in love with or connected with any of the characters on any real deep level which was a shame. They didn’t feel super likeable or personable. And I also just kinda finished it feeling quite underwhelmed, like I had nothing really to take away from this read y’know?

Loved this, very cute, made me laugh out loud, loved Nolan’s quiet calm way of falling in love with Mallory, and loved the plot being about world champ chess🤍🖤

Listened to this via Kindle Unlimited and really enjoyed, would recommend, it’s a very recent release actually, came out in September.
A romance mystery novel set in a Canadian university, where a student has gone missing, and five months after his disappearance a girl moves into his old dorm room and some kind of glitch happens enabling her to instant message with the version of him from five months ago. Together they try to help prevent what happened to him in her timeline from happening in his timeline. 
It’s a really cool concept and I enjoyed all the little time loop elements. It was compelling, and cute too, it made me laugh, and I appreciated the lil bit of magic (lol at Jack), and that the FMC is a bit odd!

This was an all right read, I enjoyed it, though there were definitely parts of it where the writing didn’t feel that great and I wasn’t feeling the connection between characters the way it felt the author wanted me to. It’s a cool and interesting fantasy world concept and I will most probably read the next one to find out how Caius and Rory’s story continues after Rory ends up back in Erdikoa.

Loved this, very compelling, just wanted to keep listening to it. Definitely screwed myself by choosing to listen to the graphic audio (it’s so good) because now I will only settle for graphic audios and each book is released in two parts on audible (!!!!) so double the credits.
Super interesting dystopian world with different ‘colours’ of people equating to different classes of society, set on Mars in the future after the human race has migrated from Earth.
Some parts were so difficult to listen to, because it’s set in such a brutal world. This first book was definitely a commentary on civilisation, told through a real-life fort/siege game scenario, with politics and tactics heavily influencing the success you have in the game, how you become a leader, and with one ultimate winner.
I find the FMC Darrow super likeable, definitely helps that he’s come from the dregs of ‘red’. I really look forward to reading the next book to see where it takes him next with his new found winning ‘gold’ status.

Reread: 5⭐️
