I’m on BookTube now! You can find my channel here! =)
This was … Wow! O_o
My first finished read of 2024 and the year started with a bang!
That ending, though?! Why did it have to end like that?!!
My precious Sel and Bree, and Nick and William. T_T
Now I’ll have to wait an entire year for book 3.
I mean, no biggie.
Obviously, I can do that.
No problem. Easy peasy.
No problem. Did I already say that?
I’m good.
I’m fine.
It’s kay.
*whimpers and sobs in a corner*
________________________________
I wrote my review for “Legendborn” so this means I can finally dive into “Bloodmarked”!
YAY!!! I’ve been dying to read this ever since I finished the first book and I can’t wait to find out in which kind of direction this will head. After the ending of “Legendborn” everything is possible!!
So curious how things will pan out. Also: Sel!!! I’m so ready to see more of my mage!! #TeamSel
I’ve two weeks to finish this before I have to return it to the library and you bet I will. ;-)
Did you read “Bloodmarked” already and if yes, did you enjoy it? =)

""A muscle in Sel's jaw tightens. Abruptly, he steps closer and, to my utter shock, touches me for the first time in weeks."
I can't believe I'm only 8% into this book and everything is already going to hell again. Like NO way! Can you please leave my Sel alone? If this is an indication for the rest of the book I'm going to suffer... T_T"

""It was just ... where I felt ..."
"Safe?" he asks.
I wrap my arms around myself. "I never said that."
His smile is tight and humorless. "You never had to."
There's so much to unpack here. Uff those two are killing me. 😭 Also I'm worried in which kind of direction this is going to head. >_< I kinda like Lark, but him just being there doesn't bode well."

""How about taking an order from me?" William has found us, with iron in his voice and heat in his eyes.
Did I mention that I love William too? He's amazing. 🥰 Also despite the horrible situation: Did I just witness a new ship rising on the horizon? Because if yes, I'm all on board of it!! ❤️"

"Urgh! This book is killing me. The injustice that happened in those last couple of chapters. I can't stand it. I hate injustice and this is really... damn it's tough to read. 😭 Boy, I hope this will change direction again. This story got dark."

""The Line is Law!" I sneer, teeth bared. "Y llinach yw'r ddeddf."
Gosh! I'm so angry, too. This book is so damn good, yet at the same time it makes me so angry. I'm so angry on Bree's behalf. On Sel's! On Nick's! On William's! Just leave all my babies alone! T_T"

""He idly examines the space between us, smirking at the inches that already feel like nothing. He leans forward with both hands on the counter, crowding me into the sink until I'm caged between his arms and his eyes are level with mine."
Hot damn! The tension is real, my friends!! I dunno how Bree doesn't get it, like girl!! Look at that fine boy in front of you!!! Also I always think of Sel & Will as older?!"

""I thought I was king, or close enough. I thought our decisions were "my call."
Okay, there's a lot to unpack here. I really love Bree as a character but she still has a long way to go. Then again she's a teenage girl that got thrown into all of this so I suppose I can cut her some slack. XD"

""Why didn't you?"
"Because ..." His throat works. He swipes his tongue over his lower lips. Takes a deep breath. "Because my judgment is not what it should be around you, Bree. It never has been."
Holy moly!! Does this mean we're finally getting somewhere?!! Cause seriously, those two needed to have this talk like... months ago?!! Also I can't believe Bree still didn't find a dictionary!!! AHHHH!"

"Sel's eyes are unreadable, his voice even. "Do you truly think Nicholas would begrudge us this? After everything?"
Sel is never imprecise.
"This?" I whisper. Sel watches me carefully. Long enough for the wind to catch his hair. Release it. Lift it again.
I swear those two are killing me! T_T The way Sel protects Bree without any regard for himself and without expecting anything in return. #TeamSel forever."
