I’m glad to hear that you liked A Tempest of Tea because I was hearing a lot of mixed reviews which made me nervous to keep it on my TBR. I trust your judgment so this heightens my excitement to read it.

Love the video ❤ Here to let everyone know that manga/manwha is not a genre but a format. It's a pet peeve when people treat it like a genre rather than the format that it is.

i just got wild love! it's my first elsie silver book but i am a recent STAN of the single parent/gaurdian trope. it started with things we never got over and i cannot stop wanting MORE of that. i haven't read any of the other books you have but most of them are on my tbr!

I actually gave A Tempest of Tea a 3.5 rating; I really wanted to love it, but there wasn't as much vampiric aspects as the synopsis hinted at, and for me the planning for the heist felt very rushed because we were focusing more on the characters' inner emotions than the plot beats themselves. But I did enjoy it, and I definitely plan on reading the second one.

Since you cried for Good Girl, Bad Blood maybe you might for the As Good As Dead too. I don’t want to spoil anything, so I’ll just say that both cases take a toll on Pip and you’ll see that in the 3rd book. 🎧🎼

I didn't read since a long time 😅 I like your channel you are kind beautiful and have positive energy ❤

I also find it so interesting seeing how subjective and individual enjoyment of books is! I only rated A Tempest of Tea 2.5 because I just didn't connect with the characters and it was very character driven. I also had the opposite experience in finding that I did predict the twists 😅 I'm still curious to read the sequel though, because I find myself wanting to know more about the world it is set in.

I just really struggled with a tempest of tea and will not complete the series. I did enjoy the world but I just didn't connect with the characters other than Flick. My favorite read of April was a reread of the MindEff series by ST Abby. I read 18 books and most of them were just okay. I also read Tale of the Last Flowerbride and loved that one and Wilder Girls by Rory Power. So far, my May reading has been a lot better for me.

it's the way i've never been interested in that series, but i've been told recently i would really love them, so i need to read the synopsis👀🏃🏻‍♀️

My favorite of April was Rebecca's Tale by Sally Beauman and my least favorite was The Winter's Tale by Shakespeare, I do wonder if watching the play would have made me it more entertaining for me. I read three middle grade: Anne of Avonlea by LM Montgomery, Pocahontas and John Smith by Marie Lawson, and A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking by T King Fisher. I think it's cool that T King Fisher is exploring a variety of different avenues with her work. I read two more books for my journey with Filipino literature. One was a non-fiction, A History of the Philippines by Luis H. Francia, and the other was a WWII story, When Elephants Dance by Tess Uriza Holthe. That one I didn't finish until May, though.
