This little novella was wonderful!! We got to see what Taryn was all about during the events of The Cruel Prince and how she really felt. This gave the reader just a little more background and in-depth look at another character in this story. I think that those who enjoyed the first book should totally check this one out!!

This was one great story. I will say that the first part of it was kind of on the slower side but I kept going and was rewarded with this killer second part. I wished that this one would have either been sped up just a little or reworked. I am really not sure. It just slightly suffered from that book two syndrome. But the second half of the story totally made up for it and that ending I about died!!!! This one picks up a few months after the events of the first and man o man I don't know how book three is going to end but I am ready!!

This was such an amazing book that I thought I wasn't going to like. Which would have been a first for me with the queen of stories Colleen Hoover! I actually loved how this story was split up with two POVs one of Clara who is almost seventeen years old and the other Morgan her mom. It gave us a well rounded story and let us know what both characters were feeling during the devastating loss within this story.

Colleen's titles have a way of taking you through the darkness only to find the light on the other side. And this one was no different. It really made me feel like it was two books in one. A young adult title with Clara's chapters and then a regular adult contemporary with Morgan's. It was a wonderful blend of age groups and relationships in this breathtaking story. Regretting You pulled me into the story early on and I fell in love with the humor, love, and even the hurt that goes thought the story.

I could not put this book down so be warned!! When I got going I was SO glad that my paper white was one of the newer models that was waterproof!! YES I was reading in the shower!! Don't judge me!! It was just that good that I didn't want to put it down!!


Go Into This One Knowing: Adultery, Underage Drinking\Sex\Drug Use (all very light), Loss of a Parent

This was like a blend of the movie Aliens and The Darkest Minds all set in space! I loved every second of this!! I am really not sure how to tell you the epicness of this story. This is a science fiction story with horror and light romance all tied into one. We have Kenzie who really finds her way in this story. She finds out secrets she didn't know about and comes to terms with who she really is. The one issue I had with this was that a lot of the side characters get blended into the story so other than the main characters I kind of just forgot some of the other characters that were pretty glazed over. But that doesn't really take away from the story at all.

Parts that I really loved were that the author didn't spend a lot of time on things that she didn't need to spend time on. Like when they were going from ship to ship. It was done very quickly and well. This made the story flow a lot better than others that I have read.

The ending bits of this story stressed me out so much!! And let me tell you I have already read book two and it does the same. Lix with these cliffhangers is gonna kill me!!!!


Go Into This One Knowing: Aliens, Kids with Powers, Death of a Parent

I am so sad to say that this one was not as good as the first. But the ending made up for it!! This is a full 4 star book in my eyes. It picked up a few weeks after the ending of the first book and things got real!! I did like that the author split the kids up because that was a ton of people trying to keep track of. Most of them we didn't even know their name so this really worked out as a benefit. It made the cast of characters at lost more manageable. And well ya know as far as we know they are all still alive. So if need be they could maybe pop back up later.

This one has us going to four locations. Unlike book one where we were pretty much on Sanctuary this one were on the alien ship, Mars, another station, and another planet. This travel worked out well. It kept the story going and made it not stagnant at all. Although I did feel that parts of the story were unneeded for the most part everything was great.

Characters especially Kenzie go through beginning stages of full on PTSD. Which made this story feel very real. I mean you have a bunch of kids that are older teens going through seeing people being ripped apart. Kenzie has lost her mom and friends and now the aliens that she thought she escaped are back and stronger than ever.

This one is another story that of course ends on a cliffhanger really Lix you are killing me!!!! And at this point we don't know who has survived and who hasn't and I am like dying here!!!!


Go Into This One Knowing: PTSD, Aliens, Superpowers

The first time I read this it was as an ARC. It was such a magical world with amazing characters. This time around I finished this one as finished copy that I had gotten from Owlcrate and I have to say that the magic is still there. This story is such an empowering world to read about. The story starts out with a bang as we are disked away with Lei along with her being kidnapped and taken to the king. The mystery surrounding her mother's abduction and her golden eyes was one that I am still reeling about. And I am very happy that I get to read book two right now. I can not wait for book three!!

The romance in this book was introduced about half way through and I am happy to say that it was a revelation that I loved. When Wren and Lei finally showed their love for each other I about screamed yes out loud and I loved every second they are together.

The world building in this one was amazing however, the look of each demon in the moon and steel chase I would have loved to have some kind of artwork to get a better idea on what they look like. That was pretty much the only confusing thing for me.

The ending of this one was amazing it was so stressful and I was on the edge of my seat on what was going to happen. This LGBT Fantasy novel is one that is a must read!!

This was such an empower story about girls tossed into a situation of being rapped to only rise up and burn the place to the ground.


Go Into This One Knowing: Violence, Sexual Abuse, Animal Murder, LGBT

When I heard this was from the same people that did the little Tea Dragon book that was in one of my Owlcrate's I was like YES GIVE ME!!! This was the cutest little story. It shows kids to be who they are not who others want them to be. To just try their best and everything will work out. I finished this in a few minutes and I loved every minute of it!


Go Into This One Knowing: Adorable!!

Although this was only 14 pages long it gave us a new character to want to know more about as well as another look at the Coronation from another point of view. I hope we get to see more of this character in the wicked king!!

This was a great little beginner book on drawling dragons. I would say that you will find yourself taking your time drawling these dragons to really get into giving them detail. I know my oldest could most likely pop these out like nothing but she has been non stop drawing for sometime now. I did love how each one gave you 6 steps to draw each dragon which really helps get to the most detailed dragon you can get. As well as being able to add your own flair to them. I would recommend this title to anyone who loves dragons and loves to draw.



Go Into This One Knowing: DRAGON!!!

This book started off with a bang and ended the same way. Although the story does wrap up compeletely I could see places that the author could come back and add more to the story. Which I really REALLY hopes that she does. This was one series that I will remember for a good long while.

This last installment to the Folk of the Air series starts off a few months after Jude has been exiled to the mortal world. She is doing odd jobs and really just sulking. The romance in this one has been kind of all over the place as you don't know who to trust etc. But that all gets cleared up by the end of this story.

It was a wild ride as there were twists and turns and man this book killed me by the end. I just don't know what to say about this story other than I loved it completely and I am just so sad now that its over.
