  • TBT: The Dream Thief

    TBT: The Dream Thief

    Hello, dearies! It is time for a new appreciation and a look back into a book that I thought I had liked from the start, but when reading the original review, I found out I had not. But after the second read, I loved it.

    The Dream Thief, is book 2 in the Drakon Series by Shana AbΓ© (one of my fav authors). And the strange thing is that I really thought I had liked it the first time as well, but it seems I found Lia annoying and the whole thing as too much explaining.

    So, here we are… I’ll try to keep it short… even when we know that it is not my forte. πŸ˜†

    TBT: The Smoke Thief

    Hello, dearies! 🐲

    It’s been a while since I did a TBT, but recently I have been feeling that longing to re-read a good book and one that I have loved for a while is The Smoke Thief by Shana AbΓ©.

    This was the first book I read by this author I think 10 years ago or so, wow! I did not expect to think back and see that it has been that long since I first picked up and only after a small description and learning that it was about dragons, that was more than enough for me.

  • The Promise of Rain

    The Promise of Rain

    Author: Shana Abe

    Genre: Historical Romance, Enemy-to-Lover, Medieval Romance, Adult (sort of)

    Happy Weekend, dearies! I hope you’re enjoying a great one.

    Today I finished The Promise of Rain, and said, wow, the difference between reading an enjoyable book and when I don’t. Why? Because I read this one so fast, I couldn’t get enough of it, I had to finish it and know all their secrets. Unlike when I read The King’s Obsession, which I started last year and finished not long ago.

  • The Last Mermaid

    The Last Mermaid

    Author: Shana Abe

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Genre: Romance, Fantasy, Mythology, Historical

    Happy Friday, dearies! Are you ready for the weekend? I am! πŸ“•

    Today, I cannot really say how this one about The Last Mermaid will go, but I have some notes that I’ll share after reading each part of this book. I must confess that for a while, I seriously considered giving it 2-3 stars because I was confused and it took me a while to finish it, but then Shana did what she does best when I’m reading her books, she managed to catch my attention each freaking time that a book part would end, oh, sorry, this one is divided in three Books (Short stories) but as it turns out they’re all related.
