Review: Zodiac Aligned by Elizabeth Briggs

Zodiac Aligned by Elizabeth Briggs
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a great ending to Ayla and Kadens story! I loved all of the twists and turns and how strong Ayla became not only as a wolf but also as a witch. I'm so excited there is another book full of everyone's HEA that I'm about to dive into. 

I am glad the Moon Witches stopped being scared. I'm glad the Sun Witches have a new leader. The only thing that could have made this better was seeing everyone get their true mates which is what I'm expecting is going to happen in book 5!

Very glad I finally decided to read these and I'm extremely glad I kept my SE Arcane set to put in my shrine!

Review: Sun Crossed by Elizabeth Briggs

Sun Crossed by Elizabeth Briggs
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was a roller coaster! I'm so mad at Kayden and his crazy mood swings. And the way he never listened to Ayla. I love her backbone and her standing up for her beliefs even though her choices made her distant from Kayden. She's strong and determined and I think she's a great leader. 

I think Ayla had grown so much into the great woman she is now and I can't wait to see how she defeats the Sun Witches. Also the Moon Witches need to stop being scared little mice and stand up for themselves. I'm actually quite disappointed in them. 

I'm very much enjoying this series and am curious how much annoyance I'll go through before the end gets here.

Review: Star Cursed by Elizabeth Briggs

Star Cursed by Elizabeth Briggs
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The twists and turns that happened in this book! I desperately hate Jordan and think he's scum. The Sun Witches are ridiculous and power hungry and I hope the coven leaders who are bad get what they deserve. Kaden finally giving in to his true feelings for Ayla was amazing. Glad he finally decided to go for it. And Ayla stuck in the middle of literally everything in this series. I hope she meets her mom in book 3 and that she can finally unlock her true power and get rid of the fake mating bond soon!

Review: Moon Touched by Elizabeth Briggs

Moon Touched by Elizabeth Briggs
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This has been on my list for so long to read and I finally decided the time is now. I really liked this book and I like Ayla. She's had a pretty awful life with her father's pack and I was just as excited as she was for the moment she could leave. I'm not sad about her dad and stepmother but I do think her brother might still be alive.

The connection between her and Kaden is intense and I commend them for ignoring it as long as they did. I think Kaden is being a little too guarded though which will cause issues for their story in book 2 after this ending. 

Very happy I finally decided to start this and can't wait to see what will happen on this journey.

Review: Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros

Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As I predicted, I loved this book yet I feel so lost and confused and overwhelmed with emotion.

Violet grew so much in this book. Seriously, she is such a different person than who we met at the Parapet. I'm so glad she is becoming the woman she is but also sad she's had to grow so much in such a short amount of time.

Xaden is so frustratingly delicious it's hard to know how I feel about him sometimes. I get he's in a bad situation but he locks Violet or so much. It's amazing how she is still fighting for what will be.

Rhiannon, Sawyer and Ridoc are still the best friend and squad anyone could ask for.

Tairn, Saegel and Andarna are still fantastic dragons! Though Andarna needs to figure out her life choices; she's on my list.

So many answers revealed only to get new questions! So many new characters introduced to build this world even more. So many hilarious laugh out loud moments. So many jaw dropping scenes and events. So so so many tears!

I can't say I comprehended every reveal and understand every new signets revealed, but I was along for this ride 100% and a reread will be in my future soon. I wish I didn't have to wait so long for more deals but I'll have to be patient for yet I'm sure will be another cliffhanger ending. So good, I loved this adventure!

Review: Part of Your World by Liz Braswell

Part of Your World by Liz Braswell
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I'm a die hard Disney movie fan, so going into the twisted tales is always rough because I love the original stories I grew up with. And this was a decent twisted story. I really like how much Ariel matured and grew in the last 5 years, though it makes me sad that she changed so much from the happy, carefree and adventurous girl she was before. I liked that she immediately took charge to rescue her father when she discovered he was alive all this time. 

Eric annoyed me a little too much. I know he was under a spell for the last 5 years which probably means no growing up or maturity happened, but once he saw Ariel again and was like you are here for "me"... not everything is about you dude. 

Not sure i liked the open ended ending. Also definitely not a fan of king Triton 😒 Ariel risked everything to save you, she does, and then you tell her she can't go to the Dry Land?! She could have left you be seaweed and did what she wanted! That really ticked me off. 

Overall this was an interesting read. Not sure i will read many more because again OG Disney lover but it was definitely interesting.

Review: Dance of Monsters by Jagger Cole

Dance of Monsters by Jagger Cole
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Once again, I completely consumed this novel by Jagger Cole. I have no idea what he puts in his books, but I can't get enough apparently. 

I have been waiting for Evie's story for so long! She's such a sweet, naive, innocent ballet dancer surrounded by all of her friends who are not at her level and make fun of her intensely. In good fun of course. So being able to see her in a different light and see her go outside of her comfort zone was great. 

Vaughn has been a mystery for readers since he mysteriously showed up, but I couldn't imagine him with anyone else. He has so many demons from his past and Evie is the most serene, gentle and understanding person who can handle all that Vaughn deals with. 

It was great to have these characters be the end of this series, even if it is a little bit bitter sweet to see the end. I get entranced with these chartered and will definitely miss them. But as always, I'm already excited for what's to come next from this author! Very glad i got the chance to read this!
