I’ve been making up characters and telling myself stories for as long as I can remember. I’m also a mood reader. I’ll read just about anything, but the stories I always yearn for are the ones that take me far away from this world, make me swoon, and devastate my soul. As a mood reader, I also have phases, and I’m in a fantasy phase right now. Magic, romance, adventure. These are just a few of my favorite things to read and write. As I read, I am inspired by the emotions that flood my senses when I read a good book.
I adored this book because of the characters and voice actors that played them in the audiobook. What an incredible performance by both narrators.
The MFC is stubborn and strong-willed, which I closely relate to, and it is a character type I will always stand by. So, of course, the MMC is an incredibly handsome bastard who gets under the MFC’s skin, making for delectable banter. I swooned, I cried, I laughed…I loved this book!
Living on an island plagued by magic and mythical monsters isn’t a fairy tale... it’s a nightmare.

I was obsessed when I read ACOTAR, but this book brought my obsession to a whole new level. Why am I recommending this book? Rhysand. I love a complex, layered character, and he is one complicated male.
What I loved most about this book is that it started out going in one direction but then spun on its axis and went in a totally different direction than I anticipated. When a book can surprise me in every way, that’s special.

I am so glad I listened to this one because the story transported me to a world I was unfamiliar with, and I would not have known how to pronounce anyone’s name.
This book is so beautifully written and enchanting. I devoured every morsel, especially the love triangle I didn’t expect. That ended up being my favorite part of the story and one of the best-written love triangles I’ve ever read/seen in a story.

I loved how different this fantasy rom-com was from anything I had read before picking it up. From the meet-cute to the epilogue, I adored all of it. I was shocked at first by the contemporary language and the modern world-building within a traditional fantasy setting.
The MFC was relatable, reacting to the crazy world around her as I’d imagine I would if I were taken on a wild adventure with a dragon shape-shifter. Funny, witty, steamy, and exciting. This book had it all.

Please take me to this planet where I can find a Scottish alien orc who will worship my body, mind, and soul. The slow burn was excruciating, but the payoff was explosive. I loved the characters, even through their flaws.
The MFC sang to my soul. I get her in every way, which may be why she sometimes makes me mad. I loved her gumption. I saw her fears and couldn’t wait for her to finally break down all her walls.
"‘I would worship you if you let me.’ And I would. Gods, I’d fall to my knees at the altar of her body and roar her holiness to the stars."

Grandma Ruth’s Tolkien-inspired bed-and-breakfast holds a secret, a broken interstellar gate. She tells me my grandfather wasn’t human, but an orckin who had come to Earth through the gate, and returned to his home planet through it. Getting the gate to work to find him was the easy part. Now, face-first in the dirt of his home planet, I have no plan. No way to get back, either.
Songs of Another Time is a unique tale, blending contemporary and historical romance with time travel and Arthurian fantasy. The series explores grief and love through the eyes of a young woman whose life changes when her mother suddenly dies and then again when she is transported 1500 years in time.
Though there are elements of time travel and romance, this series does not follow the traditional formula of a time travel romance. There are multiple POVs from Guinevere and Lancelot, telling a story of forbidden love, but also one about rewriting destiny. Some tropes and vibes: friends to lovers, instant love, found family, why choose, fantasy, steamy romance, true love, contemporary to medieval times
