cute read
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

I enjoyed this, it just didn't blow me away.

It's a lovely sweet, small town, second chance (kinda) romance, with some steam, but not too much.

Cutter's art sounded interesting, and I googled nuts and bolts art to see what came up, and I loved them!

I liked that Gemma still held her crush for Cutter, even after all this time. And Cutter too, to an extent, held his feelings for Gemma but it takes time for him to fully admit to them and give in.

I loved that, while Cutter and his brothers appeared to have everything, being born into wealth, it's clear that money doesn't really buy you happiness.

It was a nice book, and someone will love but I couldn't, and for that I'm sorry!

Romantasy.

A mix of Romance and Fantasy.

Not a genre I'm familiar with, nor one that - to be honest - really holds all that much appeals to me. However, I still thought I would give this a go, mainly out of curiosity.

This is the first in Sarah J Maas's 'Court of Thorns and Roses' series, set in a not-too-dissimilar world to our except where fairies (and not necessarily the Tinkerbell, happy-go-lucky type) are real, and in which - after killing one such who was in shapeshifted wolf form to feed her starving family - Feyre is dragged across the wall (which is the dividing line between their world and ours) to the faerie realm, where things prove not at all to be what she expected.

I can say I've read it now.

I *may* read some more of the series, but not in any rush to do so.
