My Thoughts
Gah! I’m glad I chose to read DIVINE RIVALS after RUTHLESS VOWS was published. I need to read the rest of this story now!
DIVINE RIVALS was such a compelling read. I loved the premise so much. It felt very You’ve Got Mail that takes place during a war between Hades and Persephone but from the human perspective. I loved gradually learning about Enva and Dacre through the myths Iris and Roman shared with each other. Speaking of Iris and Roman, I loved them so much. The chemistry between them was fantastic and I especially loved their banter.

My Thoughts
As long as you don’t think too hard about the hows and whys, NOT IF I SAVE YOU FIRST is a fun, light-hearted, action-packed romantic thriller. Despite its unbelievability, the story and Carter’s writing style did exactly what I needed them to do–kept me reading so I could knock out one more book before the end of the year.

I really loved this friends-to-lovers romance. PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION was super cute, emotional, sensual, and just a lot of fun to read. I related to both Poppy and Alex on a deep level. This is my second Emily Henry book and I’ve loved both. I look forward to reading more books written by her.

RUTHLESS VOWS was everything I wanted in a sequel to DIVINE RIVALS and more. I was hooked on page one and despite the bittersweet ending, I loved this story immensely. I loved seeing more of the magic in this installment and learning more about Enva and Dacre and even getting their perspective every now and then. I really enjoyed seeing the contrast between Enva and Dacre’s relationship and Iris and Roman’s as the story progressed. I’m so glad I decided to read this series.

My Thoughts
I really liked LOVE ON THE BRAIN. It was so much fun and it got me in the mood to read again. I went into this thinking it was an enemies-to-lovers romance, which is one of my favorite tropes, but this was more of a blind-to-reality-to-lovers story. Despite the fact that Bee, a Ph.D. neuroscientist, was a little dense in figuring out that Levi didn’t hate her but loved her, I still enjoyed this You’ve Got Mail-esque story. I loved the chemistry between Bee and Levi. I loved their banter and humor once all the miscommunication issues got cleared up. I also loved Schrödinger and Félicette (their cats). They endeared me to the main characters and story more.
