Too corny for me. 

Not for me, but I understand why people enjoy it. 

Nothing more satisfying than a series nailing the landing. 

The way that I woke up Monday morning and went I HAVE TO FINISH THIS BEFORE WEDNESDAY BECAUSE KATABASIS COMES OUT THIS WEEK. Luckily for me, this book was excellent enough for me to be able to fly through it. I was ENTHRALLED, ENRAGED, ENTRANCED, girl.

A fun list of events! I would have loved for this to have been built out more into a longer multi book series, but the author did not share that vision. Things felt so incomplete and glossed over that it reads more like an outline than a complete novel at times. BUT I was entertained, and it had a gargoyle companion, so it gets a generous three stars from me. 

The way that I was clenched. This series is not good for my blood pressure. 

I had no idea this was for the monster fuckers! 

So great, definitely one of my faves this year. And HOT. 

This one's difficult for me to rate, because on one hand I did think it was good and it actually did make me laugh a few times, but on the other hand I still am the me that does not like funny books and this was exhausting for me to get through. 

I had a bingo card with a spot to read something outside of my comfort zone though, and this definitely was. “Funny” and “lighthearted,” who is sheee?

Delightful little romp! If you like books that feel wet, this is a good one. 

This was fun and obviously extremely readable, but I wasn't kicking my feet. 

A bit too on the nose for me, which I sometimes enjoy, but it just didn't click with me here. 

Emotional turmoil front to back, toe to tip, side to side. 

LOOOVED. I went to like every single panel she was on at the Texas Book Festival last year so I was already endeared, but this is a really excellent read.

This was not what I expected/wanted it to be, but was still pretty enjoyable as a fellow lifelong muscle pervert. 

Love it when a book wastes no time getting nasty. This book is STINKY /pos

If I ever see that man, it's on sight. Best believe he's catching these hands. 

Y'all know how I feel about quips...

I understand why everyone loses their mind after reading this. It's perfect. I need more. 

The stress.

It does do that historical fiction thing that I hate where it namedrops people from that time, but other than that, so excellent. 

The thing is... is that I wish there were other characters. Iron Flame, but AGAIN.

Beautiful prose, really vibed with the casual climate horror, but just could not get into it. 

Incredibly well written, constructed, and communicated. 

I liked this, she was fun! I don't know what about it inspired such hate in people, but I'm excited to go back and watch reviews to see. I just thought she was a delightful little romp. 

It's almost like rushing to release a sequel within months of the first book's release is a... bad idea..?
