Lightlark by Alex Aster 


Lightlark follows the story of six rulers, each from a different realm. Every 100 years the island of Lightlark appears for only 100 days, so they may try to break the curses placed on each realm. The catch is one ruler must die to save them all. 
I was genuinely excited to read this book. 
I for some reason needed two weeks to read it, as it moved slowly. Then bam in the last five chapters the pace picks up. I also wished for more of a backstory on Azul and Cleo as they played a role but it felt more like a filler. It seemed most of the book focused on Celeste, Isla, Grim, and Oro. Which is fair as they are the main characters, but still. 
Maybe that will play into the second book if/when it releases. As the ending left you dangling off a cliff for a second. 
If that happens, I will probably still read it because I need to know what happens to Lightlark after everything. 
Thank you!!

  The Obsession by Jesse Q. Sutanto Pages: 320   This book was okay. I didn't hate it. Didn't love it.  It was very predictable as things unfolded, which as a thriller that might have been what made me feel neutral about it.  Delilah has been controlled by sketchy men her whole life, until she takes things into her own hands.  Logan is infatuated with Delilah. He will do anything to maintain having her in his life.  I feel for Delilah because even after taking control of her life, she still is a magnet for sketchy men. She just wants what every other girl wants. A normal happy relationship. Which she thought she had with Logan.  Logan, this guy is a walking red flag. Yet on the other hand if he wasn't so creepy and intense he might have had things play out the way he wanted. Instead he hid cameras around Delilah's life. He blackmailed, and in his mind things had progressed way faster than on her end. 

Meet Me in the Margins

I love a good meet-cute book as much as the next girly but this just stayed flat. I felt I was struggling and grasping for those cute moments that are what keeps the pages turning. I hate giving a bo...
  Old Black Witch by Wende Devlin - 32 Pages The Dream for Nicky and his mother was just that, a dream. That was until they found the perfect Old New England house to transform into a tearoom. What they did not plan on was the cranky and eccentric Witch that resided within. A little trouble with robbers, or how flying blueberry pancakes would go over with the guests.  If you would like to whip up a batch yourself, you can! The book has a copy on the back.
