My Thoughts

I loved IN STORMY WEATHER so much. The premise was so much fun. It reminded me of Twister / Twisters but more believable and with hurricanes instead of tornadoes. I loved Quincy and Sebastian so much! They had so much chemistry and their bantering was everything. I was grinning / chuckling every time they were on the page together.

My Thoughts

I adored OUR PERFECT STORM. Friends-to-lovers is one of my most favorite tropes and Fortune executed this story so well. I loved both Frankie and George so much. I loved that Fortune wanted to write a what-if-Jo-and-Laurie-got-together-like-they-should’ve story. I also loved the overall message surrounding conservation and combating climate change.

My Thoughts

A CURSE CARVED IN BONE was just as good as A FATE INKED IN BLOOD if not better. It was a fantastic sequel and end to this duology. I absolutely adored this series from beginning to end. I loved seeing Freya learn more about her power from Hel. I’m so smad on behalf of all the unfated from Nordeland. Harald was something else. His schemes and manipulations were horrid.

My Thoughts

I really love that Norse mythology and Viking stories are “in” right now. I mean I absolutely loved A FATE INKED IN BLOOD. It was such an interesting take on Norse mythology and Vikings lore. I loved the setting, characters, and magic system. The political intrigue was fun as well. I’m excited to see how the story wraps up in the sequel and to see if my theories are correct.

My Thoughts

DAWN OF THE NORTH was everything I wanted in this third story and more. I loved that we got POVs from more characters. I loved seeing Kass’ country, learning more about his people and their magic, and learning more about him as well. I loved seeing Saga become more confident in herself. I loved seeing the bloodline gift through Silla and see how that affected Myrkur and his scheming. I’m so excited to see where the next installment will take us in this journey. I’m especially curious to see how Silla and Saga’s relationship may change now that they’re together.
