My Current Read

📖 Name of the Book: One Dark Window

📄 Plot: Our main girl gets propositioned to not only save herself but others like her. Only thing? She’s going to have to commit treason to get it done along with the kings own nephew.

📖 Genre: Gothic Romantasy 🖤

📄 My Favorite Quotes: “What creature is he, with mask made of stone? Captain? Highwayman? Or beast yet unknown?” “Trees, that face. Austerity and beauty. An imperfect, breathtaking statue.”

💭 My Thoughts: This book so far has been such an easy read. It pulls you right in without you feeling like to much information is given at once and the characters all interact wonderfully. The pacing is well done and the romance is definitely cute and worthwhile.

⭐ Star Rating: so far it’s a 5/5
