Black Knight by Rina Kent

3.0

i felt for bad for kim,

what she went through with her mother and the bullying and her eating disorder and self harming

, she deserves the world. and i’m glad xander gave her that. even thought he was such dick in the beginning like actually such a dick. but i guess he had a good reason for it kinda.

also WHY would you make us think they’re siblings for like four chapters that was so rude😭 i’m glad they’re not actually siblings

ronan ily and cole ily. again, the friendships are so priceless. but ok book overall.

aiden king. i am so in love with him. this was a nice wrap up to aiden and elsa’s story, everything was connected and it made my heart warm,

like the arrow tattoo.

i say this for every book review in this series so far but i absolutely adore the friendship between the four horsemen and between elsa, kim and the four horsemen. they're interactions are so funny and also adorable bc they care about each other. except xander and kim but it’ll get resolved by next book LOL. also i love knox and teal. this one was a lot more plot driven, like backstory plot type shit which i still enjoyed.

jealous and possessive aiden was still popping as ever but there wasn’t as many scenes compared to the first book which is understandable since people knew not to mess with elsa.

also silver redemption arc? i did not expect to like her after this book.

aiden is so perfect in his own way. great book overall and nicely planned out plot.

we finally learned about elsa’s backstory, or at least a majority of it. and how she’s connected with aiden and why he hated her. their connection is cute but in a twisted way. 

aiden being jealous and possessive and protective as always. he’s so hot. also elsa’s friendship with the four horsemen is literally so adorable and the fact that they care about her is so cute to me. 

cole is so hot and sweet. ronan and xander are so hilarious. something that kinda annoyed me was how fast she folded for aiden again. after all that talk about her not doing what he says and or caring about him, she was sleeping with him again pretty quickly. like i get why but still, stand up girl at least for a little bit. but aiden is so caring in his own way it’s heartwarming. 

but the plot twist, there was so much going on. enjoyed it tho.

As Good As Dead by Holly Jackson

mmm definitely the worse book out of the trilogy. there was so much going on but it also felt like half the book could’ve been cut out and it would’ve still gotten the point across. there was a lot going on but a lot of nothing, yk? pippa this book was just so frustrating and annoying. she was not herself and then she just did whatever she wanted not really thinking about the consequences and when someone tried to convince her of smth else, she didn’t listen. which ik she’s stubborn but she at least had some common sense in the other books. and ik she’s been through shit but bro talk to a therapist instead of taking pills, wdym you can’t talk about what happened to you.

i do feel bad for pippa bc she got kidnapped and almost killed and when she escaped she couldn’t even process it and she had to move on from it quickly to deal with jason’s body.

  the ending wasn’t satisfying at all. like it was a happy ending ig but im not satisfied. and it was the most fruatrating way to make a happy ending. ravi carried this book tbh.

this was had a bit of a slower start but it was interesting towards the halfway point. another great book though. i half guessed what happened at the end but it was still a plot twist to me. also ravi and pippa are so cute. ravi is so patient and understanding and he cares about her so much it warms my heart.

Fractured Souls by Neva Altaj

mmmm this was a good one. pavel is so so patient and it makes me cry how sweet and understanding he is of asya’s situation. he’s literally so perfect. also when he buzzed his hair i fell to my knees, he’s so hot. asya is stronger than me bro she deserves everything.

when pasha made every male dress in casual clothes for their wedding bc asya has trauma with men in suits (other than pasha) i cried he’s so considerate. the only thing that im sad about this book is pasha left the bratva and i don’t think he went back. it never explicitly said he went back and im so sad. though him and the bratva main circle are still good friends since they’re all at his wedding and pasha went to the bratva doctor when asya was pregnant instead of the hospital but still i wish he was still in the bratva.

  this book is considered a mafia book but it barely had any mafia elements in it and the author mentions this in the notes so i was aware but i still missed the mafia elements. but i loved the mini appearances of mikhail and sergei bc i love them sm and i miss them. also kostya was hilarious i hope there’s a book about him. overall good book. i love pasha.

Stolen Touches by Neva Altaj

4.0

i enjoyed reading it. i love obsessed men and i liked salvatore’s obsession with milene and his constant worrying and caring about her but at some points it was just a little too much. it was an entertaining book nonetheless. i liked milene as well. it didn’t really stick out to me that much, maybe because i read sergei’s book before this one and his book is just untouchable. i was missing the bratva a lot while reading this tho, i miss the brotherhood between them since the new york family didn’t really have that. but this was a good book still. plot twist at the end.

i love crazy men in books. i love love love them. esp if they’re crazy mafia men. mafia men in general are crazy but they also are calm and composed when need to. i love the ones who know don’t even know what calm and composed means until they meet the fmc and that’s the only time they are calm and composed. and boy is sergei crazy. sergei is actually so sweet and caring he makes my heart melt every single time he does anything to or for angelina. also every single thing he does is hot. he’s just so hot. i love sergei so much. my heart hurt for him every time he called himself crazy or insane like :( im so glad angelina was there to make him realize he wasn’t.

AND THEIR SON😭😭 THATS SO CUTE

i enjoyed reading this one so much. i love mimi and felix too they were amazing characters. great book love sergei and angelina.
