"A whole lot of fun to read, can't wait to read the rest of the series!"

Jonathan Kent

"Furyborn, which is the first book in a series, was good. It was interesting, the romance was fun, with a great concept. However, with most series, in my opinion it just got worse as the series went on. I really didn’t like where the story went plot wise, and the third book just felt like a stretched out mess. So while I like the first book, I would not recommend the series as a whole "

"I was in a reading slump when I read this, or I might have given it more stars. There were twists I did not expect, and I enjoyed that. "

"Entertaining 2 stories in one, parts of it near the end felt a little forced or too similar to zombie type stories, but overall I enjoyed. Mostly well written and look forward to the next book. "

"BOOK 2"

"I read this series a few weeks ago and thought I would post it because it is an amazing YA Fantasy series. I will say though that it is more romantic than some of the others I have read. But if you enjoyed ACOTAR you will probably like this too. "

Rowan Granger

"OH this, this right here, is a great book. This and the one following it. I'm struggling to find a way to write about it and give it justice. The detailed magic, the relationships between the characters and then the relationships that connect them to others that aren't even in the same timeline. The second book left me on the tips of my toes and I'm not so patiently waiting for the next book coming out in October."
