✨ 4/5 books so far and hooked ✨

The Covenant series by Jennifer L Armentrout has me hooked! I am on book 4 out of 5.

I will say that the start of book 4 possibly is the worst one so far - but only because she says “My Seth” over and over and I wanted it to end. 😂

It’s a fantasy book with Full Bloods, Half-Bloods, Mortals & Demons.

Worth a read if you like fantasy that isn’t full of 🌶️

(In fact, it’s like, mostly closed door scenes)

... Read moreThe Covenant series by Jennifer L. Armentrout combines elements of fantasy that pull readers into a world filled with Full Bloods, Half-Bloods, and Demons. With its rich character development and vivid storytelling, it appeals to fans of supernatural tales and teen-centric dramas. Readers have praised the evolving relationships, particularly between the Half-Blood protagonists and their mentors, which add depth to the narrative. The humor sprinkled throughout, like the commentary on repeated phrases such as “My Seth,” offers a light-hearted touch amidst the darker thematic elements. Many find it refreshing that the series maintains a mostly closed-door approach to romance, making it suitable for a wider audience. For those who enjoy fantasy without overly graphic content, this series presents a compelling choice. Exploring themes of identity, sacrifice, and bravery, the Covenant series resonates deeply with fans of the genre. As the excitement builds with each book, readers eagerly await the resolution of character arcs and intricate plot twists, making it a perfect moment to delve into this captivating world.

Books I finished this year so far.
I set myself a goal of 15 books, then ended up reading 22 books, but if you add in books that I have also listened to on Audible, or Google PlayBooks, I could add another 30 books. I use the Audible and Google PlayBooks because I can listen to them while I am out doing deliveries for work. #reading
