Do not read this book!
This is the first book in the series, it is fun and clever but if you like happy endings look away now. The characters are engaging and Count Olaf is one of the best villians of all time.

ARGH!!! What is it with authors lately and cliff-hanger endings?!?! First the Gypsy Brothers series and now this one.

BUT I love Zeth. He's not your typical bad guy; he is the baddest bad guy who's sexy as hell and into some rather kinky stuff.

Yeah, erotica is not my favourite genre ever but sometimes...well I find the perfect blend of erotica and budding romance and that is this series. You can just tell that something amazing is going to happen between Sloane and Zeth.

Can't wait to read the next book in the series.

First episode you think oh my world this is going to be an amazing series, then you think ok it's slowing down which is normal not every series can be packed full of drama. I found myself really looking forward to finishing it. Not because it was so amazing but because I wanted a bit more drama.

I really enjoyed the first season of Discovery of Witches. You can easily get into watching the TV show. The characters are played well and the storyline is very good. Based on the All Souls Trilogy. Can't wait for Season 2!

I'm not sure why I had this on my want to read shelf, because I've read the series before. I really like this series. Patch is just so 😍😍😍. But Nora is kind of dull. Honestly though the series is worth reading. Her best friend gets on my nerves though.
I read all of the books super quickly. I really like them. I went and bought them. I originally read them at the library.

I was entranced by the cover of this a long time before I realised it was part of the Hearts series. I'd not long since finished the first book which I loved, and I couldn't wait to read more books in this series, and it was only after I'd bought this that I realised it was Jack's story.

I did enjoy this, just not as much as the first. Jay just fascinated me with his magic and the whole back story and everything just blew my mind. This one, Jack seemed hot and sexy and the fire-breathing...but it didn't grab me as much. I wasn't as sucked into the story.

The description for the third book in the series has me intrigued as to what King's story will be about and I've already got it on my kindle to read but I'm not going to read it yet.

<strong>Huh...that ending</strong>

Are you really that bothered, Woods? I'm certainly not.

I read the first two books in this series (Rosemary Beach) years ago and never got around to finishing it, but admittedly I wasn't too bothered about that. But the chance to read a different story of the group of friends? Sure, why not?

I have enjoyed this but I could quite happily leave it at the one book because that ending? As mentioned above, I'm not that bothered about the news about his dad. But I do have the second book in this mini series so I guess I should read it soon.

I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, for your viewing pleasure:




However, my short and sweet review of this book is as such. I thought this book was a good start to a series. Yes, I found Lemony Snicket to be irritating, especially with him jokingly defining words every few paragraphs, but I was able to find this book charming enough to move onto the next one... Because I hadn't gotten annoyed yet. I probably remember this book fondly only because it was the first book, and not the sixth book in a series that was exactly like the first book, or the ninth, or the eleventh. This book was short and pleasant, as this series should have been.
