Welcome to Litsy!

The third book in a row by this author. I‘m enjoying his work. All ready to go tomorrow night.

I really adored Sage, P and Oren! Several secondary characters were interesting but could have been more fleshed out.

The beginning was super good and I was intrigued. But this didn't work really well as a mystery book, maybe it was a bit too ambitious trying to combine so many genres in one novel. As a fantasy book this worked better, I really loved the world and this felt refreshing to read.

While The Dead Romantics was my favorite read of the month, and If He Had Been With Me was a wild card I really enjoyed until the end. The Paris Apartment wowed me while Romantics I suspected the ending.

I‘m behind… but trying to catch up. 😅

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
The middle of this book gets bogged down (seems to maybe be a theme for Broadbent‘s second-half of a duology), but otherwise, I loved this.
The characters continued to grow, the twists continued to surprise me, and the romance continued to make me swoon.
The epilogue has me *very* interested in the final duology. Can‘t wait to see what she does with it!

I enjoyed this thriller/horror enough to give it a low pick. It‘s a little slow in spots and there‘s one plot choice early on that‘s so silly it almost ruined the book. Otherwise, I had fun with it, though it‘s not at all scary.

A Dowry of Blood by S.T. Gibson is Constanta's story, Dracula's first bride. 🧛‍♀️

just making a note for anyone interested in this book - i have about 30 pages left but needed to take a minute to point out this is NOT a retelling of The Headless Horseman. This has a completely different plot and story even though it uses The Headless Horsemen motif - don‘t go into this thinking it will be a retelling.
