This isn't my usual YA, but I did enter Goodreads First Reads competition to win it, and I did really want to read it. Oh my god, I took FOREVER to read this book but I swear it's not a reflection on the book's quality, believe me! I had a really good time when I was reading this book, I've just had...
Hmm....what to say... what to say... I was attracted to this book by the fact that it was fashioned as an epic fantasy/romance hybrid and that the heroine was a trained assassin. But when I finished the book I don't think Vitalia, the heroine, will go up there as one of the most effective assassins ...
3 starsI was introduced to main characters in the latest Hearts and Thrones series: Prince’s Fire. It was brief introduction and I was wondering how did Nalica and Justien became a part in the series. That was when I found out I missed their short story. Therefore, I picked it, finished it less than...
Soon, the moment would come, the moment she’d spent eleven years preparing for. Could she seduce and kill Emperor Lucien? The answer is a resounding NO. I DNFed this book at 25% because, really, there is no fucking point. She wasn't going to kill the motherfucker anyway. It's not only terrible, it b...

Luckily for me, I was able to Beta Read this for Amy Raby. (That in and of itself was pretty exciting for me!)Anyways, first of all, as an archer myself, the fact that this book was completely about an archery tournament really had me pumped up for the story. I was not disappointed! As for the chara...
Wonderful!!! I loved every page of this book. I got it from the library, and I will be purchasing it soon along with Assassin's Gambit. Amy Raby shows such talent with her ability to create a world so detailed with a magic system that is also very unique. She was also smart to leave that magic syste...
Assassin's Gambit was a pleasant surprise. I stumbled on a review somewhere that didn't really like it.
