I love that SJM selected fan art, and Feyre was painting this picture in the book. I have heard so many raves about Samantha Young, I saw this audiobook on Hoopla, and I thought, why not. I really liked it. It one of my favorite kind of romance, the old second chance. I love the history that come with second chance (and usually friends to lovers too). I will definitely be checking out book 2 of this series.

Feyre, the main character, was 19 at the start of the series, and everyone else is 500+. But, yeah, it was all over the place. SJM had a huge fanbase, as well as tons of haters, but I guess that comes with the territory.

I actually read less books than I normally do, but ACOWAR was quite large, and I read SFF slower than contemporaries. I admire you folks who re-read. I remember my daughter doing that for every new Shadowhunters book, and my sister did it for every new Harry Potter book. I just want to read EVERYTHING, so no time for re-reads. =)Samantha@WLABBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11589486165371852904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528395365771263864.post-65639184148948057262017-05-08T20:03:44.356-04:002017-05-08T20:03:44.356-04:00Have tissues handy for when the big battle goes do...Have tissues handy for when the big battle goes down. It was tough. I am doing a blog tour for The Unlikelies, but I really wanted to read it. It sounds like my sort of book. I have to say, Ali is a great new voice for YA, and I love that she is giving us muslim rep, because everybody wants to read a book and see part of themselves in it.
