📚 A puddle, deaths that shouldn’t be possible, and 📚 A puddle, deaths that shouldn’t be possible, and a truth that unravels into magic, secrets, and something far more dangerous lurking beneath.🌙 Recension: Beyond the Aching Door (The Fatebound Duology #1) by Victoria Mier📚 Genre: Romantasy📅 Release Date: March 26, 2024📖 Publisher: ‎Bowker📗 available in various formats📱 Read as: Physical💸 Bought🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 532⭐️ 4/5Review:The beginning of the book was a bit different from what I expected. We follow a journalist investigating a drowning – but how can someone drown in a puddle of water? Consider me intrigued 🙂Raegan is eager to find out what really happened. It becomes clear early on that there is more to the story, and as her investigation deepens, she discovers that magic is real and that the stories her father told her when she was younger were more than just stories. And this is when the real fun begins 🙂Her obsession with finding her father was very dominant. When she learned that he had kept things hidden from her to protect her, her decision to ignore all warnings was a clear sign that this could only end with her being put in dangerous situations. Discovering that there is a whole different world out there that she never knew about leads Raegan to leave her life behind and go on a dangerous mission.This sets her on a course where she meets a handsome fae, which was one of my highlights. His grumpy attitude, combined with the clear attraction between the two of them, made me smile more than once.And let’s not forget my personal highlight: Rainer. He was such a special character, and I wanted more of him.The storytelling felt mature, and having more grown-up characters was refreshing to me. The book could have benefited from being slightly more condensed, as some parts felt a bit dragged out. Overall, I really enjoyed the start to the duology.#fateboundduology #victoriamier #bookstagramgermany
✨ HAPPY RELEASE DAY ✨ 🌙 Recension: To Drown Among ✨ HAPPY RELEASE DAY ✨🌙 Recension: To Drown Among The Stars by L.K. Frost📚 Genre: Romantasy📅 Release Date: June 21, 2026📖 Publisher: ‎Underground Press LLC📗 available in various formats📱 Read as: Kindle💸 I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 296⭐️ 4/5Review:Bastion went on a journey. He hoped to be rewarded for the things he had done up to this day. It turns out that his trial ends in disappointment, and he begins to doubt himself. He meets Ulla and forms a connection with her in the aftermath of an attack on a village. When he discovers that the attackers are planning a bigger assault on the King’s base, they set out together to prevent it and protect everyone. And that is the main story arc.While Bastion and Ulla seem to be an unfit pairing at first, they learn to trust each other, communicate, and form a special connection. I found that cute, and I was rooting for them.This is a shorter, fun, and easy read. The world-building is not overly complex and does not provide detailed background on most aspects (might happen later with this being a Prequel). If you are looking for that in your stories, this might not be the one for you. I (for once) wasn’t mad about not having to remember a lot of characters, a complex world, and being required to connect all the dots. I was actually thankful for that.I appreciated it for what it was: a lovely read that kept me entertained for a short time and focused on the connection between the two main characters, who overcame many hurdles.#arcread #todrownamongthestars #lkfrost #bookstagramgermany

Now, he’s her captive.💡 Rage of Krakens is a standalone epic romantasy with lost identities, beast companions, and political rage hot enough to burn everything to the ground.Thanks to @behindthepagespa

Payne📚 Genre: Mystery, Crime, Thriller📅 Release Date: October 15, 2024📖 Publisher: Thomas & Mercer📗 available in various formats – included in Kindle Unlimited📱 Read as: Physical💸 Bought🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 384⭐️ 5/5Review:That was an absolute banger. I couldn’t have asked for anything more.How the story wove all the elements together – which didn’t make sense at the beginning – was a masterpiece of storytelling. I wasn’t able to put this one down and had to read it in one sitting.A woman jumping from a building, a couple found dead at the beach, and very horrific events from the past made this feel very dark and intense. This is not for the faint of heart, and for everyone dealing with cases like these in real life – props to you.What I enjoyed a lot were the connections to stories and characters from the first book. It adds to the feeling of being connected to what is happening to and with the characters. What I absolutely adored was the chemistry between Sheridan and Sam. These two are an amazing couple, and I love me some representation.And calling very early in the morning (and it just being accepted as a normal thing between close friends) just to share that your cat is making progress in sleeping closer to you was one of my personal highlights 🙂#detectivesheridanholler #crimethriller #bookstagramgermany
