Lord of Embers (The Demon Queen Trials, #2) by C.N. Crawford

We all want to know what happens between Orion and Rowan on their conquest of their relationship, mind the demon throne, too, of course. What can I say? You will need to read this second book in order to get to the juicy part we all expect to come on “Garden of Serpents,” to be released this June.

Something Wilder by Christina Lauren

Something Wilder by Christina Lauren

People have been comparing this story to Indiana Jones’s. Well, for me, this isn’t certainly a classic Christina Lauren’s rom-com. There’s too little of rom, and zero com. But, if you like a thriller with a brush of love, you might enjoy Lily “Jones” Wilder hunt. Read full review below :)

This Woven Kingdom by Tahereh Mafi

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

What can I say? When Emily Henry writes a book involving the literary world—characters who love books or are writers/editor/agents—, she just hits the mark EVERY SINGLE TIME! Let me tell you, I wasn’t a fan at all of “People We Meet on Vacation. [https://www.

Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber

> “I believe there are far more possibilities than happily ever after or tragedy. Every story has the potential for infinite endings.” The title speaks a lot for itself. In fact, I was a bit afraid of reading the book because of it. However, as they say, don’t judge a

Crescent City (Book Series) by Sarah J. Maas

Let me start by saying, since ACOTAR [https://www.faereviews.com/best-5-fantasy-romance-book-series-of-2021] came into existence, I’m a fan of Sarah J. Maas. That said, I try to be as objective as I can with my reviews. Therefore, I will rain compliments when the occasion so warrants, no matter who

The Lost Sentinel (Book Series) by Ivy Asher

Ivy Asher has a way of telling a story that even if nothing major is happening you are still engaged in the reading. I would say this because there were some aspects in this book series that I wouldn’t generally condone, but I found... ... myself forgiving Asher for them.

Possessed (Hades Castle Trilogy #3) by C.N. Crawford

I decided to find out what was going to happen with the story so here we are. 'Possessed' is definitely the best book of the three. It's more fast paced and packed with action. I had my emotions in my throat with the suspense of what you knew could happen

The Fallen (Hades Castle Trilogy #1) by C.N. Crawford

Fantasy romance reviews

The Fallen (Hades Castle Trilogy #1) by C.N. Crawford

Fallen angels is one of my favorite topics in the fantasy genre. There's something enticing about challenging the conceptions and rules of heaven and hell, gods and religions (with all due respect to religious people). However, this book was a disappointment. There's no intriguing and captivating action until the last

City of Thorns (The Demon Queen Trials, #1) by C.N. Crawford

When I first read the description of this book, I thought it would be another fantasy/romance saga to entertained myself with, bit more of the same. You see, sometimes in this genre, I find myself having trouble getting different and refreshing stories. I understand that no one intends to

A Deadly Education (The Scholomance, #1) by Naomi Novik

This time, Naomi Novik brings us to a different world of fantasy, a school for magicians. However, forget about Harry Potter because these two stories have nothing in common except for the presence of magic. The world around the Scholomance reminds me a little bit of Halalház, the fae prison
