In fact sometimes I felt like I was missing book. There were several adventures in this story all leading up to a bit fight at the end and the Deus ex machina was used liberally, quite literally. The Gods have a plan and it revolves around Catalia "Cat" Fisa. I can see the author playing with so...

I have read a few reviews that have issues with the kidnapping and I agree, consent is damned important, a god declaring that he's her prize for being good still isn't consent. However, overall the story drew me in and kept me reading and made me want more. Griffin is an interesting character and ...

Super great read! I'd only say at times Cat's fear+ irreverent attitude could seem immature and annoy me. But, I loved her. No character needs to be perfect, but she was perfectly strong, charming, and funny.A great hero too...

But it feels a bit repetitive. Heroine has strong magic, gods help, she nearly dies while trying to save everybody, doesn't want to be like her mother. Also it feels like a lot of standard fantasy elements found their way into the world, it also felt a bit "westeros"...

But when an ambitious warlord captures her, she may not have a choice…Griffin is ...

I am so confused, this had so little resemblance to the first book's characters. I'm going to rant. I am so disappointed I pushed this series onto all my friends. What Didn't work for me- The first half of the book. The first chapter set the story was a bitter pill for me. It was a horrible misrepre...

Warning: Language. Lots of it, and I'm not apologizing. Holy. Sweet. Mother. of God. Please stop it with the bad sex scenes, Bouchet. They were numerous, and in the first few chapters of the book they were saddled with mental and even a little physical abuse. HOW is this supposed to make me believ...

God, when will I learn not to start reading a book at 11pm? It's now 7am and all I can really say is HOLY SHIT.Say it with me, folks:I want Cat's magic, but I don't want to be her. Because Jesus H. Christ, she's got some serious responsibilities on her tiny little shoulders. Such a strong character,...

Jan. 2017: Reread before reading the sequel. Still adore this book and can't wait to devour the next. I'm gonna be up all night!**********************************Aug. 2016: Sooo... This is awkward. I originally opened this book to see the first sentence started with "I pluck..." I melodramatically a...
