Blood Queen (Lharmell, #3)Blood Queen by Rhiannon Hart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An awesome ending to an awesome series! It has been so long since I read book two, I was a little bit worried that I wouldn’t remember what was going on but it didn’t take long for everything to come rushing back. Zeraphina is a great character, she is like a typical 17/18 year old – bratty, rude, no patience….. but she is also brave and proud and will do anything to protect her family and friends. I loved the twist in the middle of the book, which I did not see coming at all, and the story flowed so well right through to the ending. Zeraphina’s sister, Lilith played a substantial supporting role in the last half of the book along with her husband Amis, but the standout supporting role was Rodden who works in mysterious ways and easily got under my skin.
This is a series that I love and now that I have finished it I feel a bit lost – which is always a good sign!

Into the Dim (Into the Dim, #1)Into the Dim by Janet B. Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I was definitely in the mood for this book! As soon as I started reading it I was drawn into the world and I can still visualise the Scottish landscape with Hope riding her horse and then running into Bran who, from the moment he appeared, I knew was going to play a large role in the story. The characters were all so believable and so was the story, I can totally believe that people can time travel like they do in the story.
I don’t know if the history side of things was accurate but this did not affect how much I enjoyed the story. There was adventure and intrigue, battles with swords and castles with royalty and of course, a lovely amount of swoon aka Bran with his sleepy eyes and lazy smile.
The ending leaves it wide open for book two and I will have no hesitation in picking it up and being transported back into the time-travelling, Tesla coils, Scottish filled world.
Thanks to HMH via Netgalley for this ARC.
