Chained Hands by T.L. Smith
5.0
This was honestly one of the best reads for the year for me. I found everything about this book addictive. I literally couldn’t put it down.
It follows sailor who’s husbands sold her to this mob guy. The mob guy Keir wasn’t meant to keep her alive but somehow she hasn’t been killed. Yet.
The plot of this book was phenomenal. The spice was great too but I really fell in love with the plot and the fast pacedness of it.

Flames of Chaos by Amelia Hutchins

Never in my life have I been so conflicted about a book. I loved it and hated it all at once. My main issues with it were that it was almost to spicy. It felt like the spice kinda took from the plot. Literally every other page in the first third of the book had to mention her get bent over and fucked. The pineapple?!? Gross. That’s literally absurd in the logic. How is someone who “so smart” be that dumb wtf. I have issues with books that let you seeing bad shit is going to happen I tend to dnf quick and I almost did ALOT but I honestly found the book to be weirdly addictive. Like while the spice was overwhelming and too much it was reallly good. The plot itself is great too if you are able to absorb the pieces between the every other chapter of spice. I loved Knox at first then his whole backstory. I would describe this book as hot garbage. But I will read book 2 lol
Tying the Knot with an Amagami Sister, Vol. 1 by Marcey Naitō, Marcey Naitō

Thank you to netgalley and Kodansha Comics for the e-arc!
Uryu-Kun, who is solely focused on becoming a doctor and wanting nothing to do with women, was invited to stay at this temple with the idea of him just being a boarder. But really the priest has plans for him to marry one of his 3 daughters.
So this is a Shonen manga and I normally don’t super love Shonen as they aren’t normally my thing. But I did enjoy this manga for the most part. It took me some time to warm up to it but I really liked how they brought depths to uryu with his mother dying and that’s why he doesn’t like gods. Throughout the manga, it really showed how deeply losing his mother affected him and I really loved that aspect. Especially as someone who has lost a parent. I also liked how different each of the sisters were. Yuna-nee is my favorite. Overall I really liked it but if you don’t like Shonen manga this is for you.

Thank you to netgalley for letting me read and review this book!
To be honest I wasn’t entirely sure I liked the manga. Mainly because i found the first chapter to be so cringe it was hard to read. But It honestly got so good near the end of chapter 1. Ellie and Sara are both so weird I love it, I would love to see more of her later. . I loveeeeeee Ellie and Omi-Kun. I didn’t like him at first because he was such a jerk. He’s still a jerk but I like it now. I don’t know what that says about me… It turned out so good, I’m so surprised!

Credence by Penelope Douglas

I knew what they said about this book going in. They said it was cringey at times. But I just had to see for myself.
They were right.
The uncle jake thing was super icky. Did not like that. I was also told that kaleb was unhinged and it was the SOLE reason I read this book to begin with. He was most certainly unhinged. But I also found him oddly charming????? Don’t ask. I don’t know either.
Buttttt with that said, I did kinda like it. Am I ashamed? A lil bit lol but the spice what really good and I like tierman character. It was written really well but I found it soooo descriptive. I had a issues not skimming at times because it was so so much at time.

Did not finish book.

I’ve read the 1st two book in the hopes that it’s gets better. I DNF book 3. I really tried. I found it drug on a lot. The plot was somehow slower but more exciting than the first two. But I just couldn’t get into it. I do like how the MC character was developing. But there was no spice and I honestly found it pretty bland.
