Major question about the book! When Kiela blushes is it pink or blue? This is gonna bother me I need to know!
Fckai finished reading and wrote a review...
I did not think I'd see the day I finished this book 😭 I'm RELEASED THANK GOD I'd probably have dnf'ed this book five times over if it wasn't for the fall readalong
Not that this book was all bad but I was bored to death, around 60-70% a bit more movement came into the book but yk it shouldn't take that long to catch ones interest.
I liked all storm scenes, I love a good storm. I liked Kielas character developement and the overall message was heartwarming. The descriptions were vivid and the world was so magical and fantastical, the probabilities also were very fantastical. Everything was too convenient, solutions came as easy as breathing so nothing seemed to have any stakes. In the beginning (aka 60% of the book) nothing happened, idk I already forgot because I simply couldn't care less. Also there seemed to be a few things that just felt inconsistent while reading, but to be fair I didn’t check to make sure.
I don't want to think about this book anymore, I earned my freedom 😇

But surely, she wasn’t the first person he’d cared about.
Not really a vote of confidence but it's not like there's an abundance of people your age there 😬
One issue I have is estimating how many poeple actually live on this island but if there were more poeple Larrans age I'd expect to see him hang out with them or something, he's an open and helpful person and all - only the named people and unnamed fisherman are mentioned in reference to all the inhabitants of this island, there's just Larran and Kiela as the youth and Tobin the kid - although there was a line about 'all the kids dancing in the fountain' that surprised me cause: where did all these kids come from ??? How big is the community really? Do we also have an unmentioned bunch of young adults???

Scrolling through the forum posts of books I’ve read before and desperately wanting to join in on the discussion(s) but my goldfish brain is struggling to remember the details of the plot 🤣 granted, some books I’ve read months ago, but still!! How soon do you start forgetting details of a book you’ve read?

I genuinely need an empathetic mmc, I'm so tired of the "burn the world for you" trope. Yes, I do like it, but it's become so overdone and it's losing its meaning and sometimes not well done.
Give me a man who'd save her AND the people in a burning building. Wdym it's not your business as long as she's alive, when you have the power to save tens, maybe even hundreds of people, including children?? I need a man with softer hobbies or something, why does he ALWAYS have to be a rich shadowdaddy or the strongest knight or just wealthy/rich in general? I'd love to see a normal man for once, and if it's fantasy, the life of a normal person in that world. A man that is good with children, or doesn't know how to fight. Almost every man on booktok nowadays punch someone and they're dead. Also, why do they ALL have to be emotionally unavailable? 😔
Personally, I'd always choose a man who cares about others and not just me, over a man who's rude and apathetic to others.
If you have recs, pls help a girl out 😭 (any genre other than horror will do, and preferably no spice)
btw, I'm not saying I hate all of them or they're all like this. I'm just saying a change would be nice 💗

"You ever think about selling more than jam? Can’t imagine this shop will last.”
Nah don't booh him, we were all thinking that
I guess that is what makes this book cozy(?) but everything goes very very conveniently and I don't jive with that - this is not the first or second or third passage I've thought that - I'll be very surprised if the business doesn't flourish
