My October Reads 🕯️🎃

I read 5! Books in October and here are my ratings:

one dark window ~ 5/5 babes ⭐️ can’t wait to read the next!

two twisted crowns ~ 4/5 ⭐️ Love the writing by the author. Love the characters and their development from the first book. The storyline was had me captive and the ending was perfect. -1 star because I thought some chapters were drawn out or boring BUT still good. Elm and Nightmare are my fav 🤍

gorgeous monster ~ 5/5 ⭐️ Was recommended by a coworker so I had to read it. Honestly, the best mafia book I’ve read… I usually find them cringe. This wasn’t too bad and for that 5 stars. Also, a quick read and took less than a day. Not sure I’m interested in continuing the series 🤔 but we will see!

gorgeous prince ~ 3/5 ⭐️ just not as good as the first tbh but was entertained

gold ~ 4/5 ⭐️ Amazing book but for some reason this took me way too long to finish. I hate when series start introducing too many POVs for more drama. It makes it difficult for me to want to continue reading. But still great book! I was lowkey shipping Wick and Auren so the end of chapter 52 made me gasp 🫢 so many good relationships formed in this book!

October is a fantastic month for cozy book reading, and this year was no exception. As the nights grow longer and pumpkin spice lattes fill our cups, it's the ideal time to dive into fictional worlds. Among the trending genres this month, fantasy and mafia romances captured readers' imaginations, bringing stories of adventure, love, and intrigue to the forefront. One notable trend is the rise of dark fantasy novels, resonating well with those seeking escapism. Titles such as 'Gorgeous Monster' showcase complex characters and thrilling plots, appealing to fans of mob stories with a twist. These narratives often highlight strong emotional ties between characters, creating a vibrant tapestry of relationships that readers find relatable.
