I've read all three and the last one left me like "is that it?" 😭 the 2nd one is definitely my favourite!! I'll be re-reading all three this year because I'm craving those Jacks moments hahaha

I love them so much

It’s interesting to hear other people’s opinions on this series, only because I read the first book and, personally, I hated it 😅 there were far too many plot elements or character traits that were obviously heavily influenced by other fantasy books/films - mainly Howls Moving Castle - that I just couldn’t believe this book was an original piece of literature. The amount of things that happened in the first book alone too was very overwhelming - curses, the going from rags to riches, evil queens and princes, demons and faits, vampires, castle with hidden secrets etc. Totally aware that people love these books but for me I just couldn’t get passed how things were taken from other stories and given new names or outcomes

It was rushed, she changed the ending and her publication company gave her a deadline 2 months more so yh

The fact you uploaded a reading vlog for once upon a broken heart whilst I’m reading it omggg😭that’s insane, I’m so happy you enjoyed the series!!! I’ve only read the first two books because I’m waiting for the paperback for the third one to come out in June…but I’m so in love with EvaJacks that it’s an issue…I’m very much in love with Jacks as a character…can’t believe he isn’t real 🦊🏹(btw I’m happy to talk about this book in depth because trust me…I’m literally bursting after the second one😭)

The second book was something ELSE!! I already can’t wait to reread them 💗🏹

Oh man I couldn;t get into this book when I first bought it last year, probably because I had a hard time visualizing the characters, and after I saw some of the beautiful fan art it helped me so much! The book will play like a movie in my head now.

Unpopular opinion: the third book in the series was my favourite! I did not like the first book at all, it was so confusing. What got me reading the second book was that it was everyone's favourite and the ending of the first book did leave me intrigued. I somewhat understood the hype of the second book but coming from not liking the first, I wasn't as attached to the characters. But the third book! The pacing in it was so good imo and it felt more high stakes with Apollo being.. well Apollo. Idk the vibes were just there for me

I'm not usually into fantasy books, but this trilogy has made me want to read more! Something I personally liked is that there aren't any spicy scenes, yet they still have strong bonds. Also, I'm proud of myself for reading fantasy in my second language (English); it's a great achievement and I'll never forget these books!

I love this!!! As much as spicy scenes can be fun I definitely agree that it’s a credit to a book when there aren’t any and you can still feel the connection between the love interests! I’m glad you loved it!

My mother and I read the first one but we sorta thought it was all over the place so I suggested we get the other two just to see if we like it. I've read the full series through once and A Ballad of Never After three times. I got them a little over a week ago.

AH I hope you love it!

I usually don't read romance books (of any kind, classic or "modern", because I find it hard to connect and I like a very specific kind of romance) but the first two in this series were so nice and heartwarming, the third (final) book really disappointed me, it was rushed, weird, didn't feel natural to me, even Jacks character changed drastically (where was his charisma left? I don't know) so I think it would be a wise decision by the author to rewrite the last book in a more conscious way, because the story was really nice (so far) and it deserves better.

Reading Once upon a broken heart first made it easier for me to read Caraval

Girl, stop, I have so much to read already this year xD

I hate once upon a broken heart. I don't understand the hype. I heard the second is the best one but after reading the first one I just have no interest. It took 2 months to read it cause I had to re read some lines, I wasn't really interested. Felt like I was reading 3 different stories.
