One of my New Years Resolutions was to get back to book reviewing more consistently. Toward the middle of last year I transitioned to a new job and it’s been a little hard to adjust to a new normal. I have scaled way back on my reviewing for publishers and book tours just because I hate to commit to reading a book and then fall behind in my reviews. But at the same time, I miss reading all the latest books! So one of my goals this year if to get back to reviewing more consistently, but on my own schedule.
This is one of those books that popped up a lot on my bookstagram throughout the last year and I just wan’t ready to start another fantasy saga when it wasn’t complete. Traditionally I wait until ALL THE BOOKS are out in a series before I dive in—especially when I suspect that a book will be binge worthy. And this series promised to be binge worthy so I debated on waiting until more books were out. Then I saw it was a five book series and I wasn’t willing to wait like 10 years before they are all out so I figured—-why not.
This book was 100% binge worthy and I was so glad I started my 2024 reading off with a solid five star read! Currently I am almost done with the second book, and I am already anxious for more books in this series. I hear book two has a big cliff hanger which means I am going to be chomping at the bit for the next book which I hear might not be out until 2025!
