Another fun read by Kimberly Lemming! I loved exploring more of the world, revisiting characters from book 1. Loved how she covered some heavier topics on body positivity, consent, and misogyny. 

Certainly spicy with some surprises

This was absolutely hilarious! I loved every minute of Brie and Felix being menaces together. I loved the easy banter they had and the ways they just fit together. I loved that even though Felix got hit with a love potion, he was just so gone for Brie from the first moment he laid eyes on her. It was really sweet! I also loved getting to see how all the demons and humans are getting along and adjusting. This book had me laughing and smiling the entire time I was reading it, and it’s getting a solid five stars! I can’t wait to read the next one. 😊

Another very fun read by Kimberly Lemming! A laugh outloud monster romance , I think I enjoyed book 2 even more than book 1. Gotta love Felix and Brie!  

I liked Felix in the first book so this was fun to read! Brie is a great character. I think a little more character development would have been nice. But it was a good time just like the first one!

I picked this up for a funny and whimsical romance but ended up being put off by most of the romance scenes due to the love interest's possessive behaviour. In stead of a funny romance, this read to me as some kind of twisted Stockholm syndrome-ish relationship with a plot that twists towards the end so much that I can't wrap my head around it (

a cult kidnapping women to be used to awaken a dormant god-parasite???

).

The possessiveness doesn't get better

; if it did, I would give this book a higher rating.

The love interest is a werewolf who thinks the FMC is his fated mate, but he is also under the influence of a love potion, so there's guesswork whether his feelings are real or not. This possible double reason for insta-love makes him behave impulsively and wanting to claim the FMC as his.

Even if this book is ment to make fun of these kinds of tropes, I only see horrifying red flags in the werewolf's behaviour:

the werewolf goes to the court house and forces the workers there to sign him a marriage license to be married with the FMC without her being there or without her knowledge/consent, and at the same time he changes her surname to his. Then he moves into her house. And the smutty scenes... he's very possessive then as well.

🚩 Moreover, the smut gets very weird.

Tentacle weird.

🚩

The werewolf recognizes that he is possessive and even manipulative, but doesn't see that as a problem:
"I am [stalking the FMC]", I snapped, "No, wait, I'm not stalking, not anymore anyway, she wants me around now."

I should have checked the content warnings more thoroughly before picking this book up, even though I usually don't need to do that especially with books I expect to be lighthearted.

That time I got drunk and yeeted a love potion at a werewolf- 2.75⭐️3🌶️

I was so excited to get the ARC for this book. I have seen rave reviews for this series all over tiktok. Unfortunately, the story didn’t quite live up to the hype. The medieval vibes with modern duologue and slang didn’t fit as nicely as I had hoped. But I was better adjusted to it after reading the first book.

This was a werewolf shifter romance. One where the FMC was obsessed with werewolf shifter books, so she kept breaking the fourth wall to talk about her book plots and comparing them to her life. It was tongue in cheek and irreverent, but in an annoying way.

The world building was barely there and what was there was so slap-dash that much of it was sidelined bad dialogue and rushed plot. The end seemed so out of place with what the whole rest of the book was about. Far too intense for the tone of the book.

 I wanted to like this. But I just didn’t.
