Godkiller | 
pickWhen I saw this cover, I couldn't resist reading it. Going in completely blind, I found myself quickly wrapped up in this adventurous story.
The story focuses mainly on four characters and their connection to each other as they navigate a world once ruled by many gods. Worshipping gods is now forbidden, but our four travelers desperately need help from the gods.
The characters are well-developed, and the action will keep you reading. 💚
Reading the tagged book while Pixel bird/people watches. Loving our chill time after a long morning walk.

Thank you @JamieArc ! I am so excited for these books. The stroopwaffles won't last long i know it. 😂 one of my favourite treats! My kiddo has claimed the blanket already.
Thank you @KateReadsYA #litsyfoundfamilyswap
pickSietje can‘t believe the book has the audacity to touch her!
I absolutely love this cover, and the story was quite good too. A fantasy world with living gods who interact with their followers, accepting offerings and sacrifices and granting boons and blessings. Or curses. Three main characters- an orphaned girl, a soldier in disguise, and a godkiller, find themselves traveling together, each on their own quest.

pickI really enjoyed this new fantasy series. It felt quite original, taking place in a world where people have rebelled against Gods and because of this Godkillers are hired to deal with them. This definitely has Witcher vibes, but possible unpopular opinion - I liked it more. It was much more readable, but with strong world building. Also way better women characters. 4.5⭐️
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Godkiller” started off very slow, however the backstory was well worth the wait. The world itself was very interesting, in addition to the plot, however the highlight of this book are its characters. The character arcs for Kissen, Elo, Inara, and Skedi were very well done and I always love the found-family trope. I look forward to seeing how these characters continue to develop throughout the rest of this trilogy.

Enjoying the slowdown of the holiday season for the first time in years.
pickI decided to include in my monthly #BookSpinBingo list, books with fall vibes. I thought this book complied with that criteria🙄maybe only the cover☺️
I was surprised with this short YA fantasy novel. I liked the world, set in medieval time?, liked the characters and plot.
This world is “manipulated” I could say by the presence of gods. Any request, advice to the gods, has a prize, a sacrifice. But gods have limits, they can be destroyed, killed⬇️
so-soI liked the narration and the lady Witcher vibes. For me, it started stronger than it ended - I preferred the pilgrimage to the climax. Also the romance was UGH.
Posted a new video on my channel today, it‘s a review for Godkiller by Hannah Kaner, come check out my thoughts if you‘re interested.

pickThis book just RAGED, full of anger and power and mystery. Very compelling characters, especially Kissen, whose mind heart hides behind a fierce exterior. Everyone in this book is not who they seem to be, and there are so many secrets and reveals that the plot just races by. A finely crafted world, with plenty to discover, and lots of questions left unanswered for the sequel — but you‘re left definitely wanting to find out. Definite pick!
so-soMixed feelings. Mainly because it was a comparingly long time to get through. That only some start and then the end had my undivided attention. I just didn‘t get it. Mystery felt it was trying too hard. I forgot some parts of a mystery within another. Intriguing revelation of an end might not be enough for me to continue to the second book. I like the idea of a world now without gods because they became to powerful. Yet now people want them back.
pickDid I drop everything when my hold at the library came in? Yes I did. Was the 3+ month wait worth it? YAAAAAAAASSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved this.
pickThis was a fun one—more please!!! In a world where human desires create gods & their faith & prayers sustain them, a terrible war sees the gods defeated at great cost & a new king rise. But rebellion stirs, the old ways persist & one young girl finds herself tethered to a god. Kill the god & she dies & that‘s no good. Along with a godkiller & former knight, the girl sets out looking for answers & together they find more than they bargained for. ⬇️
Starting this one next…
pickIn a land where gods have been outlawed, godkiller for hire Kissen, whose own family was sacrificed to a fire god, is forced to help when a young noble girl fused with the god of white lies seeks her help. Together with a loyal knight turned baker they must journey to a war and god-haunted city for answers and aid. This immersive fantasy is filled with flawed, lovable, badass characters—and the audio narrator sounds like Game of Thrones‘ Ygritte!
pickThis was a good read, Kissen's family was killed by a God. Now she kills Gods for money. A young girl seeks her out to help separate herself from a tiny God called Skedi. They end up running away and joined by a disillusioned Knight. They are all heading to a city where a huge battle was fought, each with their own quests.
More sexy exclusives for your ogling pleasure.
Having made lots of positive changes in Jan & Feb, I'm now spending the Spring undoing all my good work with luxurious book-buying sprees and cake-based errors.
My sister made TIFFIN, y'all. I'm powerless 😅😅😅
pickI loved characters but there were quite many POVs and it took some time to get into the book. The world felt amazing and I loved the beginning - the worldbuilding. This felt quite unique.
The thing I didn't like was pacing: the beginning was intriguing, then the biggest part of the book made me to lost interest and the ending was rushed.
