I think <i>Everless</i> has the chance of being a really good fantasy series for other people. Most of the issues in the book came from my own personal tastes.The Magic Violinisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08889060820055920735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739533234250181729.post-70265395890406126612018-01-21T03:46:53.259-05:002018-01-21T03:46:53.259-05:00That`s disappointing, as I`m planning on reading b...That`s disappointing, as I`m planning on reading both of these books in February. A lot of people expected more from "Love, Hate&Other Filters", and I picked it up because I was expecting it to focus more on Islamophobia and overall, have a bigger social impact. I`ll read it, but now I`m not really looking forward to it.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.carmensreadingcorner.co.uk" rel="nofollow">Carmen`s Reading Corner</a>Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13911468500650755918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739533234250181729.post-71506318995801508562018-01-20T17:35:30.996-05:002018-01-20T17:35:30.996-05:00Always good to hear your thoughts on books.

Not the kind of contemporary that's going to turn you onto the genre. <i>Everless</i> might be worth the read, though.

I don't read a lot of contemporary anyway so I doubt I'll pick up the first one.

I was annoyed by the ending, too! I wish the epilogue had just been cut, then it wouldn't have been so dissatisfying. #OwnVoices or not, some books just aren't for everyone, so I'm glad people are still finding this book and some like it/are relating to it!<br /><br />The cover is EVERYTHING. I think subconsciously it's why I bumped up the rating from 3 to 3.5. xDThe Magic Violinisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08889060820055920735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739533234250181729.post-15734541462568413552018-01-10T17:37:00.687-05:002018-01-10T17:37:00.687-05:00Agh that is so disappointing!

I was so confused by the second POV snippets at first?! 😂 And I just felt annoyed at the ending (like she went through ALL THAT for a boy and then it was not even a big deal by the epilogue. What the...) But anyway it still had a lot of great parts and I always feel super bad for not loving an #ownvoices book so I'm really glad the author is writing and sharing her experiences and knowledge!!<br /><br />I still have to read Everless and I'm nervous. But the cover is gorgeous!CG @ Paper Furyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954615708675952085noreply@blogger.com
