Alice in WonderlandLewis Carroll
Not a fan

The story was told at breakneck pace. There was really no plot, no structure to follow, and I understand it's for children, whatever. I didn't have a good time with it. I didn't like it.

Binding 13Chloe Walsh

But this just feels really I don't know classic like 2013... it has gotten sexually explicit... and I'm worried for where it's going to go.

Bury Your GaysChuck Tingle
Not a fan

I like this book and I will definitely be reading his upcoming one cuz Barrier Gays wasn't for me. I DNFed that one but down to give him a go again.

So, though I don't think this book really has any flaws, I'm giving it a 3.5 for my experience. A lot of things were glossed over and we got through really quickly.

Happy MediumSarah Adler
Not a fan

I read the first chapter of Happy Medium and it's about a woman who is like kind of a con artist and she's faking being psychic, which is not my kind of story.

Mrs Nash's AshesSarah Adler
Loved it

I couldn't stop reading and I'm halfway through and I'm actually really liking this one... The writing was good. It was a really solid like four-st star good romance.

The Cruel PrinceHolly Black
Mixed

It's very readable, marathonable, engaging for sure. I don't know if like the world building is even that good... I'm giving it a 3.5 and I feel like some people would call that a win.

As far as the reason that I read it and this book, I like it. I would definitely recommend you pick this up if you're a cocktail kind of person and you feel like you would actually want to make some of these things.
