    WOW i savored this one, took me weeks to finish because I wanted to absorb every page, mull over every plot point. I felt so invested from start to finish. Super impressed with how everything tied together so satisfyingly!!

    Can't tell if this Van Laar fam is actually insane or if I just don't understand rich people

    I listened to this on audiobook and tbh I wish I would have just gone with print - the battles and quick scene changes had me really confused. I might come back to this and read the print version before the second book comes out since I do feel invested enough to continue with the series.

    Am I a sucker or is anyone else’s heartstrings tugging for Jacob a bit?? Need to know why he was in jail, but hoping this isn’t a “guy with the rap sheet takes the fall” thriller ending

    Reading Update from 32%

    I'm trying so hard to follow all these battle scenes but my lord my brain does not work that way. Especially on audiobook, I feel like I'm just spacing out as they're flailing around battling. Shame because I'm starting to lose interest and I was so hopeful this would be a hit during the first 15% or so

    Reading Update from 13% - Audiobook Narrator is awesome

    I love the narrators voice! She has a really interesting accent, I looked her up and she's a Norwegian actress who lives in the UK (she was also in Peaky Blinders) - at first I thought the accent might be distracting but it really adds to the Norse atmosphere. I also love hearing how the Viking / Norse names are actually pronounced by a native.

    Did you see the twists coming?

    While I did enjoy this, apart from the first 50ish pages (just took me a bit to sink into it), I was disappointed that the twists were pretty predictable. I don't know if this is just because I read a ton of thrillers and can easily anticipate twists (they tend to follow similar patterns, and this felt sort of mainstream) or if others found it predictable as well. Curious everyone's thoughts!

    I will never look at a knot the same again... Loved that this had a mystery wrapped up in the love story. I was definitely rooting for Misery and Lowe and enjoyed this little primer into the omegaverse. Great start to the fall reading, recommend even if you're not typically a romance reader!

    First Ali read - is this her "norm"?

    I'm not usually a romance reader (more into thrillers/fantasy which is why I picked this up), but I'm loving Bride and am so surprised at how much I'm enjoying Ali Hazelwood's writing style. I know the Steminist series gets a lot of love, but I hear its cringey in an endearing way. I kinda assumed I wouldn't find it endearing so steered clear, but now I'm second guessing. Since I like Bride, would I like her other books? Or is this a total departure from her previous work?

    a twisty-turny cat & mouse thriller, this had my attention from the get go. I appreciated that Evie was a complex character - not entirely good, not entirely bad. The story ended up being pretty complex with lots of plot twists which I enjoyed; even as an avid thriller reader I didn't see many of the twists coming. I did have to reread some chapters to keep everything in line, but it was worth the investment. 4 stars for entertainment and making me think 🧠
