---Synopsis: Some betrayals cut deeper than blade

---Synopsis:Some betrayals cut deeper than blades.The Blades were never supposed to survive this long. But after the battle in Quu Harbor, escaping is no longer enough. The most dangerous liars in the four realms have one last mission―return to Yusan and finish what they started.But now a usurper sits on the serpent throne. And he may be more dangerous than the god-king.With three relics of the Dragon Lord in their possession, the Blades will face the might of the four realms. Enemies will become allies. Allies will become traitors. And the ones they love most? They’ll be the ones to break them.Grief will carve the Blades into something ruthless and unrecognizable. But only by losing everything can they win this game of kings and crowns.---Review:We’re moving through a lot of locations in this one. Overall, I had the feeling that we were picking up speed to come to an end, while still allowing our main characters to run into troubles, have time for them to interact and connect and fight a lot of battles.Not trusting each other completely but relying on everyone having a common goal and coming together at the end was and is the main drive here and it clearly showed in some of the interactions. After all this time I got connected to them and didn’t want it to end while knowing, that a happy end is not in the cards for all of them. We and the characters were allowed to say goodbye to some of their past while allowing others to move on.The writing remains rather simple and it it very easy to follow along. Overall, I enjoyed the series a lot and while it will not be the best series I’ve ever read, I enjoyed it overall and it kept me entertained.🌙 Recension: Three Shattered Souls (The Broken Blades #3) by Mai Corland📚 Genre: Fantasy & Romance📅 Release Date: July 15, 2024📖 Publisher: Red Tower Books📱 Read as: Physical💸 Bought🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 439⭐️ 4/5#thebrokenblades #fantasybooks #danilovesbooks

---Synopsis:Matthew Walker expected ledgers and lecture halls, not cryptic ciphers and gunfire. Inheriting his grandfather’s old bookstore, he discovers it was once the command post of a Cold War spy network. Now ruthless information brokers and relentless agents are after him, convinced he holds the key to secrets worth killing for. With only a grizzled regular and a stack of coded volumes to guide him, Matthew must embrace a legacy he never asked for , or become another forgotten page in history’s deadliest book.---Review:I like me some spy mystery, and adding a bookstore and secrets hidden in books into the mix, made it even more interesting to me.We meet Matthew, who inherits the bookstore of his grandfather without knowing why. Once he arrives, he meets the employee (a tech genius) and a long-term customer (or is he). Once he starts looking into things, he finds out, that his grandfather was more than meets the eyes and gets thrown into a wild ride.After the first few pages I got immediately invested into our characters and they worked very well together. Give me a TV series (a movie would also be fine) and I would watch it for sure. The book could have benefited from a few more pages (which is rare of me to say) with the resolution happening a bit to quickly. There was potential to raise the stakes a bit more and keep us guessing.Overall, an enjoyable read, that fans of that genre will enjoy with it being not too complex.🌙 Recension: The Barracks of Forgotten Pages by Sophie Dane📅 Release Date: September 5, 2025📚 Genre: Spy Mystery, Thriller📱 Read as: Kindle💸 I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.🗣️ Language: English📆 Pages: 264⭐️ 4/5##bookreview #spybooks #danilovesbooks

---Synopsis: Ich bin Kea – die Auserwählte.Nach dem Angriff der Kupferdrachen liegt sie schwer verletzt im Koma, geplagt von Albträumen. Körper und Geist sind verwundet, und nur sie kann sich selbst heilen.Währenddessen enthüllen die Professoren eine Prophezeiung: Die „Desidera“ soll die Welt retten – und danach sterben.Als Kea erwacht, kämpft sie mit der Rückkehr in den Alltag. Selbst ihre große Liebe Maio gibt keinen Halt. Bei einer Zeremonie wird alles klar: Sie ist die Desidera. Sie muss die Truppen in die Schlacht führen.---Review:Band eins war okay, aber nicht überzeugend. Trotzdem wollte ich wissen, wie es weitergeht. Nach Teil zwei ist klar: Ich setze die Reihe vorerst nicht fort.Die vielen neuen POVs wirkten unnötig und selten relevant. Die Handlung zieht sich, Szenen wirken ziellos, der rote Faden fehlt. Am Ende hatte ich das Gefühl, dass zu viel versucht wurde, statt sich auf eine klare Kernhandlung und wenige wichtige Figuren zu konzentrieren.Ja, wir haben immer noch das Wir gegen die Bösen, aber mein Interesse ist weg. Die einfache Sprache passt zwar zum jungen Publikum, doch manches ließ mich den Kopf schütteln.Es liest sich flüssig, aber das Potenzial wurde nicht genutzt. Ob ich wissen will, wie es endet? Ja. Aber aktuell habe ich kein Bedürfnis, weiterzulesen. Vielleicht irgendwann dank Kindle Unlimited.🌙 Recension: Girl Of Fierce & Fire: Schwelende Schatten (Die Flammen-Chroniken #2) by Klara Fuchs📚 Genre: Fantasy & YA📅 Release Date: July 31, 2025📗 available in various formats📱 Read as: Kindle💸 I received an advance review copy for free by NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.🗣️ Language: German📆 Pages: 444⭐️ 2/5#fantasyromance #bookreview#danilovesbooks

---Synopsis: I’m Kara Hathor, a real witch, no br

---Synopsis:I’m Kara Hathor, a real witch, no broomstick required. My plan? Graduate, join the family spell-casting business, and avoid blowing things up. Easy, right?Then a notorious seer drops a prophecy: I’m the only thing standing between our world and an ancient vampire bent on destruction.Now my magic’s spiralling out of control, and two dangerously irresistible rulers crash into my life, a brooding vampire and a charming shifter. They both want me. The seer wants to control me. The ancient vampire? He wants me dead… or worse, on his side.The world is unravelling. My powers are awakening. And I’m trapped in a prophecy that feels like a curse.Am I ready for danger? Hell yes. Falling for two ruthless alphas? Complicated. Will this end in disaster? Absolutely.---Review:I didn’t expect to find such a gem at the end of the year.If you want a deep, complex magic system, this isn’t it. But if you’re after something fun, easy to follow, and packed with familiar supernatural elements—shifters, vampires, fae, witches—this is for you (and definitely for me!).The story starts with a clear introduction to a hidden supernatural world and Kara, a witch from a respected line trying to prove herself at the academy with her fae best friend. Their friendship was a highlight for me—warm, supportive, and central to Kara’s character.Things take a turn when the shifter ruler invites her out for what should have been a simple night of fun. Instead, it sparks a future tangled with a seductive vampire and a dangerously charming werewolf, both vying for her attention.The banter and dialogue? Absolutely delightful—funny, sharp, and full of charm. Book one clearly sets the stage for bigger things, and I can’t wait to dive back into this world.🌙 Recension: Fractured Fate (The Shadowfen Chronicles) by C.
