“Don’t be a fool, I wish to tell him. I will meet you again in every lifetime there is.”
☾ ARC Review ☾
~ Filled me with pain and hatred, I love it. Her best so far. She needs to write more angsty stuff. I wouldn’t personally classify this as fantasy but I guess it is. It’s more historical cdrama vibes. Some interesting realizations about war and politics that I was hoping to touch on more. Satisfied my need for sadness and yearning. The rage, shock, and pain gave me physical reactions. The ending was complete enough and wasn’t something I guessed.
I have not stopped thinking about them since I finished this. I cried. The absolute heartache that it gives me to think about these characters, especially Fuchai. He’s kind of golden retriever/Cardan vibes. Like hate him all you want but that poor man deserved better. I love men in love I can’t even lie. Like I kept forgetting the bad things he had done because he was just such a simp and honestly I want him.
This is a silkpunk mystery where Ying disguises as her brother and allies 「 ✦ 3.75 ✦ 」 ⟡ arc review ⟡
⋆.˚“If he chooses you, he will lose everything.”
This is a silkpunk mystery where Ying disguises as her brother and allies with a prince to find out who’s behind her father’s murder, all while going through guild trials to become an engineer. While it’s classified as a fantasy there is close to no magical elements (aka no real dragons) and is more sci-fi in my opinion. However, the story and setting is still quite unique and fantastical. The murder mystery was interesting and I did have a little inkling about who was involved but it still came as a surprise and utter betrayal.
⋆.˚“It’s only a matter of time, Ying.” I’m still stuck here by the way.
The romance was the main thing keeping me interested. Like Yeyang the man that you are ...more
4.25 ✧˖°. This is the first arc I was approved for so I immediately jumped into it. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers. I must admit the main re4.25 ✧˖°. This is the first arc I was approved for so I immediately jumped into it. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers. I must admit the main reason I wanted to read it was because of the cover and magical realism element and less because of the premise but it gave everything it needed to give. I will definitely be checking out more from Sarah.
You will fall in love with the entire cast of characters as much as I did. They’re genuinely all so silly, unique, special and a honestly a comfort. Especially Trevor, Romina’s close friend. He’s such a dork, I love him. I would immediately read a book or novella of Trevor and Teyonna because they are so perfect for each other.
Once the main plot kicks in and our mmc is introduced, it’s a breeze. The last 25% or so was mostly just them being a really adorable couple with heartfelt moments. So if you get uninterested once the couple gets together then this isn’t for you, but if you like to read fluff of two people just being in love, definitely recommend.
Very lighthearted, I laughed so much. I’d reread lines and even pages that were just so genuinely hilarious. Cozy vibes the whole time with the town and the shop, cute romance, precious family relationships, and great banter.
There was a slight commentary I appreciated on how people judge or persuade women to either have kids because their life won’t be complete otherwise, or tell them to stay single/not have kids because they tie you down. When it’s no one else’s choice decision.
Love love love the chapter titles being the flower meanings and foreshadowing the chapter. Periwinkle: My heart was mine until we met. Enchanters nightshade: you have bewitched my heart with you charms Mistletoe: I send you my kisses, as many as the stars. Maidenhair: I am utterly yours.
spoilers ahead
Alexander King is a perfect love interest. I was cheesing like a maniac at everything he said and did. He’s cheeky and teasing but has such a genuine heart. I love Romina too. Sometimes female mcs of romance books can be annoying to me but I was rooting for her. I could feel her pain deeply. Her hesitation and fear of being in a relationship again was understandable and she handled everything surprisingly well. Great name choice also, I understand why Alex likes to say it twice lol. They also have pretty good communication (despite the blatant lying in the beginning) and there is no third act breakup. It is second chance romance so the romance is already developed and not something you really get to see unfold for yourself.
Can we talk about how each time one of them sees the other, they call it a date and it’s the cutest thing ...more
₊✩‧₊˚4.5˚₊✩‧₊ “For ten years I thought I was preparing to destroy you when really I was preparing to love you.” This is exactly what I’ve been waiting₊✩‧₊˚4.5˚₊✩‧₊ “For ten years I thought I was preparing to destroy you when really I was preparing to love you.” This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for, this is exactly (I don’t mean to sound like Kat Williams) but this is EXACTLY what I’ve been waiting for. What kind of drugs did Ann put in this? I love the absolute giddy feeling I get from YA romances like this. If you want something easy, fast, submersible, with lots of fluff, this is it. Was in the mood for a teen romcom and this definitely delivered. Will be reading her other books the next time I’m in this mood. I’m literally still smiling while writing this. ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ . ⁺ . ✦ It has been a hot minute since I’ve been able to read a book this quickly and enjoyed every second. Most books take me like 9-12 hours total and this took barely 5 or 6??? I couldn’t stop and it flew by like a movie. It ended so abruptly but I think because it was fast paced the whole time and then suddenly I didn’t get to see anymore cuteness. ...more
