Shades of Wicked Book Review

A Night Rebel Novel.

I nearly lost hope about Frost writing Ian's story. I thought it would never come, but it did and I read it and I LOVED IT!

I definitely devour that one. Took me four days and it would have taken me less if I wasn't working or sleeping.

I waited so long to read Ian's story and when I got it, I just swallowed it whole. He would be proud of me. LOL

From the moment I met Ian, in the Night Huntress Series, I wanted to know more. What resides about the layers and layers of sarcasm and assholery. He could not be that bad if he is so willing to help his friends. He treats them like family and would never hurt an innocent soul. In this book, we learnt it all. His deepest fears and the soft side of him. We even learn his true identity. I wished he would take the real name instead of Ian, the real name was much better and prettier.

As for Veritas, she surprised me until the end. The woman is badass and has, or had so many secrets that I nearly thought she was a God or the first woman vampire ever created. She is something, there is no name for her but I am glad she can't be beaten that easily. I really loved the interaction between Ian and Veritas, their chemistry and their partnership.

The actions at the end nearly exhausted me, effing Dagon and his demonic tricks. I don't know why I thought he would just perish quickly. Ugh.

This book's cliffhanger made me more frustrated than Vlad's series. I want more of Ian and Veritas, I need their reunion scene and I want them to kick Dagon's ass more and more until he's finally dead. The wait will be long and painful like silver in a vampire's ass, but WE SHALL WAIT!

One more thing, especially for those who know about Frost's books and her universe, we got to see the rest of the band as well, even Cat and Bones! I nearly screamed.

2019! You need to come soon.

Magnus Chase and the Ship of the Dead Book Review

Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard #3 EPIC-TASTIC FINALE  I took my time with this one. It was worth savouring each page. I can't express how much I love this series. Magnus, Samirah, Blitz, Hearth, Mallory, T.J and Half-born have become my friends (in my head). The book has the typical Riordan's ingredients. It is hilarious, the adventures just don't stop, the actions even how gruesome it is, you are not horrified, you root for the characters, the plot has a flow and you learn tons on specific mythology, and this case, it's on Norse.  I could not help myself picturing Loki, Odin, Thorn, Heimdall and Frigg as the actors in Marvel's Thor. Though picturing Thor, Chris Hemsworth as a Metallica fan who likes to fart a lot was hard. I had to stretch my imagination there.  I won't summarise the story - those who read the first two will know what is going to happen in this and why our young (mostly dead heroes) are hell-bent in stopping Loki's

Vortex Visions Book Review

Vortex Visions, Book one of the Vortex Chronicles Reading Vortex Visions was like coming back to a place you visited a long time ago. I loved Air Awakens books, with Vhalla and Aldrik. Elise Kova knows how to create worlds and inhuman creatures that become normal for you, such as in the Loom Chronicles. And I expected the same with Vortex Visions, Elise definitely delivered.  Vhalla, being one of my favourite female book characters, it was pretty normal that I love her daughter. She is a good mix of Aldrik and Vhalla. I nearly forgot the promise Vhalla made to Sehra. I'm glad it was not shown how it happened, I wouldn't bear watching Aldrik and Vhalla letting go of Vi. Anyway, few first pages of the book and I was already hooked. We heard about and met the original characters. We met new characters that slowly became my favourites as well, except Andru. His first expression got me suspicious and I nearly hated him.  I must say it took me a while to understand that Romu

Chosen Champion Book Review

Chosen Champion, Book 2, Vortex Chronicles You did not just end the book like this! Fortunately, the next one comes within a week. And contrary to the first book, this one kept me on edge with Vi going on her adventure. I was excited for her that she would finally meet Taavin and then scared as well since she will meet the enemy and as the crown princess, people will just use her to gain more power.  I think the one thing that stood out most in this book is the reveal of the traitor. I must say I am not happy that I wasn't surprised. I was suspicious of that person since the Winter Solstice festival and the person was always grumpy, or on edge. I don't know how to describe it but I know that I did not trust that person at all.  Well, good riddance, though knowing the father of the traitor, I felt a little sad. He doesn't deserve that. I like him from Air Awaken's chronicles. Ugh!  And the second thing that stood out in this book is meeting Vhalla, again. It was
