In this weekly post I am also including the previous week because I only managed to finish Vera by Elizabeth Von Armin and I didn't wanna do a post to include just a couple of lines about a single book. About Vera, I'll say it was a terrifying read. Von Armin manages to depict perfectly well what phycological abuse within a relationship is. It is an incredibly readable novel despite its subject matter. The ending is feels like a nightmare. The whole story is a cautionary tale.
DEC, 4th - Finished A Song of Wraiths and Ruin by Roseanne A. Brown. I had fun with it but I struggled with the writing at the beginning as well as the obvious lack of information about the world and magic system (which was intentional for plot development). I do think it has a lot of potential and I'm intrigued to see where the story goes next.
DEC, 5th - After seeing A Dowry of Blood all over booktube and tiktok I decided to give it a go. I don't tend to have the greatest luck with hyped up books *cough* The Spanish Love Deception *cough* but I am happy to report this one did live up to the hype. The writing lured me in from page 1, it was extremely compelling. Shows very well the suffocating nature of abusive relationships.
