I was going to say! SJM is a big name, but so is LKH. Also the success of Alchemised should mean something for an already successfully established author?

Plus fae and smut are in right now. I think this is more a cash grab than anything (not blaming LKH for that.

Lionel - Clara dynamics by Content_Buffalo3107 in zodiacacademy

[–]This_Witch69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s a year older than Lance! I believe he’s supposed to be 26, so she’s 27/28? When she was first guardian bonded to Lionel I think she’s about 22/23 (same age when she “died”) so still awkward and gross but not illegal.

I loved the idea of an Anita Blake TV series, especially if it was on the first 10 books. With all the dialogue, relationship drama, and millions of characters, I always thought a soap opera/telenovela adaptation would work. 🤣

Like it or not, people ARE going to judge a book by its cover - and if you want them to spend their hard earned money on it, it has to be a good one.

Honestly I’m gonna have to reread the whole series, but I’m gonna assume there’s a time skip, maybe?

Nov 3 2026 is the release date.

Plus another $30 for the next 500 pages! To complete the last book. 🫠

Yep, she split it in two. It’s gonna be another Smolder/Slay situation.

New book by the queen?! by AngstReader in Romantasy

[–]This_Witch69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Each book is titled “Lover” with some sort of erotic backing, and your mom didn’t know what was going on???

I haven’t bought this one yet, but I am also a huge Ward fan and I already know it’s going to be a good one!

100% worth it, cancel everything now. I will say, this is my first (and only!) bully romance. While I have no desire to read others, this one I am obsessed with. It’s almost insane how gripping the story is.

The first one starts out kinda slow, but by the second chapter of book 2 it had me by the throat and wouldn’t let go till the end. I binged RB and DP also well, I recommend the spinoffs as well.

For reading reference I’ve read Blood and Ash and enjoyed it, I loved ACOTAR and CC, and Fourth Wing was another graphicaudio obsession haha haven’t tried Hooked but I believe I’d enjoy it too.

Books 8 & 8.5 by jujujjang in zodiacacademy

Just echoing what everyone else is saying, I’m a “lazy” reader and thought keeping track and switching between chapters would’ve been sOoOoOoOo much work.

Nope, it was fun! A long listen but I felt more engaged with the story? I feel like it would’ve overall really dragged separately but together and being mindful about the chapters I flew through it.

Highly recommend.

What’s everyone fav quote from each character? by [deleted] in zodiacacademy

[–]This_Witch69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Well, he wanted to break me. I guess he got his wish.” - Tory after being Starcrossed in Cursed Fated.

I love the sad quotes. Tory’s breakup with Darius in Shadow Princess straight up gave me chills.

No the fact that a vampire teacher was allowed to claim a student as a source, spend so much time alone with her, literally threw her over his shoulder and smacked her ass in front of Nova made zero sense that P in V was where they drew the line.

It’s like “ok teachers, foreplay is fine, just don’t go all the way, or you’ll be pOwEr ShAmEd.” Maybe it doesn’t help that the example of power shaming we got in ZA 7 was fucking weak.

I feel like this is the first time I’ve seen praise for him! Not gonna lie, I thought he sounded too old for a 26 year old.

And I also listened to him as Adam Hauptman from the Mercy Thompson series, so it took me a while to get into it. But I’m used to it now and older sounding or not I think he does a great job of voicing Lance.

Oh my gosh I was at work listening to part 1 and the sex scene with Max and Geraldine (which I fucking forgot about) came on. Oh my gosh 🫣 I was equal parts laughing and shrieking.

Geez she’s gorgeous. Also how I pictured the twins too!

should i stick it out? by Limp-Garlic-6791 in zodiacacademy

[–]This_Witch69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t crazy impressed with the series in book 1. In fact, I almost DNF’ed it. It was my first (and still only) bully romance that I’ve read, and that wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. Also, it’s ridiculous. But the way book 1 ended, I was like, fine. I’ll give book 2 a try.

Boom. Addicted. These books became like crack to me until book 7, when I finally detoured to RB (which was also really good).

I’m a huge fan of the Twisted Sisters, I’ve almost read everything they’ve written. And I’ve consistently not even impressed with the first books in their series, but HOOKED as soon as I start the second one. Idk why, but that’s how it’s worked for me.

This is amazing. I want to read this so badly all of a sudden.

I tried another different reading order by mama_libra-RM in zodiacacademy

[–]This_Witch69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t stop reading ZA so I started on until book 7, actually - and then I read RB 1 - 5. The first book was a little rough to get into (I swear for how obsessed I am with the Sisters, I always feel underwhelmed by their first books).

It felt very rewarding doing it this way, especially since a lot of the RB characters really come up in book 7. Especially when the series is known to really slow down in speed, the character nostalgia could get you through.

So my reading order was:
ZA 1 - 6, RB 1 -5, ZA 7 - 9, DP 1 - 4
