Tome Thursday: A Court of Silver Flames

 
Hello everyone!
 
And that's a wrap.
 
Did it take me literal years?
 
Yes, yes it did.
 
Am I ashamed of that fact?
 
No, I am, in fact, not ashamed. Not at all.
 
Because, while, as you'll see, this is a book I ended up partially liking, it's still got a host of problems and I'm not all that keen on reading it again, although I possibly MIGHT before the next one releases, depending on what mood I'm in.
 
For me, it's all about the main characters. Or character, in this case.
 
Sarah J Maas usually kicks it out of the park for me, but this time it was a hit-and-miss, depending on circumstances.
 
Without further ado, A Court of Silver Flames.

Tome Thursday: The Beast


Hello everyone!

It's book talk time again, and I was SO stoked for the release of this one, you can't even imagine. As luck would also have it, I didn't have to wait that long before I got my hands on a copy, because normally it takes almost forever for a book to get to my country after it gets released worldwide. It is what it is, but sometimes, like right now, and especially because I've become a bit more profficient with the whole electronic book thing, I can get to books faster this way.

I am, of course, talking about the next novel in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by author JR Ward, titled 'The Beast'.

I've been in love with these vampires from the moment a good friend of mine sort of coerced me into reading the books to begin with (thank you, Kelly!), because I was initially hesitant over the whole bloodsucker thing. I mean, I was just getting out of the Vampire Academy high and all, so I thught, do I want to spoil the vampires for myself?

Man, would I have made a mistake to turn this series down. I started reading when the first eleven books were out, and that was right before The King was published, but since then, I've probably reread them a couple of times already. In fact, I'm rereading them now, for kicks and giggles.
