@lavishresilience + marissa: closed starter.

things had been so screwed up lately that marissa didn't know what to do anymore. about anything. the only thing that she knew for sure was her relationship with ryan. although it had been a little complicated & confusing. but now that his brother was gone, maybe things could go back to the way they were. maybe they could go back to being them & them being together like how they were before any of the stuff that happened went down. marissa was sitting in their usual booth sipping on a milkshake as she waited for ryan to get there. they had to talk about this school thing together because not only was marissa out of harbor but now since punching the dean, ryan had as well. & that was something marissa couldn't handle. she couldn't let him throw away his future for her.

𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 • 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 • 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 • 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 : Y/n wrestles with the weight of her actions and seeks solace in the rare friendship she’s building outside of Slytherin.

𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 :

Y/N IS A NOTT!!, y/n has she/ her pronouns and is known as a girl. Mental abuse, semi panic attacks, and sad thoughts.

༒🝮⇝𝐬𝐥𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦⇜🝮༒

Y/n sat on the edge of her bed, staring blankly at the neatly folded robes draped across her lap. Her feelings a world wind that she couldn’t even describe, her thoughts remained on those she thought was her friends. The dormitory was buzzing with the sound of her roommates getting ready for the day—laughter, chatter, and the occasional clinking of perfume bottles. None of it included her.

Her stomach twisted, the thought of facing the Slytherin table in the Great Hall making her feel sick. She hadn’t eaten much at the feast the night before, and she doubted she’d be able to manage a single bite now.

“Y/n, are you just going to sit there all day?” drawled a voice.

She looked up to see Marissa Avery, a sharp-featured girl with a perfectly tied green and silver tie, standing by the door with her arms crossed. Her tone was light, but the impatience in her gaze was unmistakable.

“I… I’m not that hungry,” Y/n mumbled, looking back down at her robes.

Marissa sighed dramatically and marched over, grabbing Y/n’s arm and pulling her up with more force than necessary. “Don’t be ridiculous. You’re not skipping breakfast. Come on.”

Y/n didn’t protest, though her stomach churned as Marissa dragged her out of the dormitory and down the stairs to the common room.

The room was already bustling with Slytherins preparing for the day. Some were gathered in groups, laughing and chatting, while others sat in solitude, reading or adjusting their robes.

Y/n glanced around, hoping for a familiar face, but none of them looked her way. Her brother was nowhere to be seen.

Marissa gave her a pointed look. “Try not to look so miserable, would you? You’re making it obvious.”

“Obvious?” Y/n asked, frowning.

“That you don’t belong,” Marissa said with a hiss before skipping off to join a group of girls by the fireplace.

The words hit Y/n like a blow, her heart clenching and she swallowed hard, her cheeks burning. She stood frozen for a moment, unsure of what to do next.

“Y/n,” came a familiar, low voice.

She turned to see Tiberius standing near the entrance to the common room, his expression unreadable. He beckoned her over with a tilt of his head.

Her feet moved on their own, though part of her wanted to turn and run back to the dormitory.

Tiberius waited until she was close before speaking, his voice low enough that no one else could hear. “You’re making a fool of yourself.”

Y/n flinched. “I’m not—”

“You are,” he interrupted, his tone sharp. “Standing there like a lost first-year who can��t figure out which way is up. You’re a Nott, Y/n. You don’t get to look weak.”

“I’m not weak,” she said trying her best to keep a stern voice, though her voice wavered.

Tiberius’s eyes narrowed. “Then prove it. Stop letting them walk all over you. Stop acting like you’d rather be anywhere else. You’re here. Start acting like it.”

She clenched her fists at her sides, her throat tightening. “It’s not that simple.”

“It is,” he said firmly. “You just have to decide what matters more—your pride or your fear.”

Before she could respond, he straightened and glanced toward the door. “Hurry up. Breakfast is starting, and you’re not skipping it.”

Without another word, he walked away, leaving her standing there with her thoughts.

Y/n took a deep breath and followed, her heart heavy but her resolve slowly hardening. If she couldn’t find a place here, she’d make one. Somehow.

The damp chill of the Potions dungeon settled over Y/n as she sat at her desk, her fingers nervously drumming against the surface. She glanced around the room, noting the bubbling excitement—or dread—on the faces of her classmates. This was her first Potions class, and the stories she’d heard about Professor Slughorn varied from overly enthusiastic to overwhelmingly demanding.

The door swung open, and Professor Slughorn waddled in, his round face beaming as he surveyed the group.

“Ah, my dear first-years! Welcome, welcome to the art of potion-making!” he said, his voice warm and jovial. “Now, I won’t lie—this is no simple subject. Potions require precision, intuition, and a touch of flair! But don’t worry, I’ll help you find the talents you didn’t even know you had.”

He clapped his hands, and the instructions for a Boil-Cure Potion appeared on the board. “Today, we’ll start with something simple but essential. A well-brewed Boil-Cure Potion can be the difference between smooth skin and a very unpleasant rash.”

The class got to work, and Y/n focused intently on her cauldron. She carefully measured out her ingredients, double-checking each step before adding them. Her potion began to shimmer a pale green, just as the instructions described.

As she stirred counterclockwise, Slughorn approached her table, peering into her cauldron.

“Well, well, Miss Nott,” he said, his tone impressed. “A steady hand and a sharp mind—I dare say you’ve inherited some brewing talent. This is excellent work!”

Y/n felt a flicker of pride. “Thank you, Professor,” she murmured, her cheeks warming.

“Perhaps you’ll join the Slug Club someday, eh?” Slughorn chuckled before moving on to Evans table.

Her success didn’t go unnoticed. From across the room, some Gryffindor boy leaned over to James, whispering loudly, “Guess brewing potions is a Slytherin thing. All that practice with poisons.”

James snorted, throwing a quick glance at Y/n. “Makes sense. Probably brewing something to slip into our pumpkin juice.”

Y/n stiffened but kept her focus on her potion, refusing to let them see her react, but her hands tightened, her nails digging into her palms leaving crescent shapes into them.

In Transfiguration, Y/n sat hunched over her desk, her wand clenched tightly in her hand. Professor McGonagall had tasked the class with turning a matchstick into a needle, and while others had started to see some success, Y/n’s matchstick stubbornly refused to change.

She frowned, muttering the incantation under her breath, but nothing happened.

“Having trouble, Nott?” came Sirius’s mocking voice from the desk behind her.

Y/n turned slightly, her jaw tightening. “Transfiguration is a difficult subject,” she said evenly.

“Difficult for some,” Sirius quipped, smirking. “I guess you can’t cheat your way through this one, huh?”

James leaned in, grinning. “Careful, Sirius. She might curse us if we keep teasing her. You know how Slytherins are.”

Laughter rippled through the Gryffindor side of the room, and Y/n’s face burned. She turned back to her matchstick, gripping her wand so tightly her knuckles turned white.

“Potter, Black,” Professor McGonagall’s voice cut through the room like a blade. “Perhaps you’d like to demonstrate your impressive skills, since you seem to have so much time to talk.”

Sirius and James exchanged a glance before reluctantly picking up their wands, their smug expressions fading.

As McGonagall moved on, a Gryffindor girl sitting next to Y/n leaned over and whispered, “Ignore them. They’re just trying to get under your skin.”

Y/n blinked, surprised by the kindness. “Thanks,” she murmured.

The girl smiled. “I’m Alice Fortescue, by the way.”

“Y/n Nott,” she replied softly, her mood lifting just slightly.

The sun filtered through the high windows of the Charms classroom as Professor Flitwick stood atop his stack of books, eagerly explaining the day’s spell: the Levitation Charm.

The warm light of the Charms classroom should have felt welcoming, but Y/n’s nerves prickled as she watched Professor Flitwick demonstrate the Levitation Charm.

“Swish and flick, everyone! And don’t forget to enunciate: Wingardium Leviosa,” Flitwick said cheerily, bouncing slightly on his stack of books.

Y/n glanced at the feather in front of her. The quiet whispers of students attempting the spell filled the room. She flicked her wand and said the incantation, her voice shaky.

Nothing.

She bit her lip, trying again. The feather barely twitched. Her frustration grew as students around her began to succeed, their feathers floating gently into the air.

“Need help?” came Adessa’s soft voice from the desk beside her.

Y/n sighed. “I think this feather’s cursed.”

Adessa chuckled. “Try relaxing your wrist a bit. You’re overthinking it.”

Y/n tried again, this time loosening her grip. The feather wobbled slightly, but still didn’t rise.

“Careful, Black!” Flitwick warned, though he seemed amused.

Sirius and James had their feather soaring in loops above their heads. James leaned back in his chair, smirking. “Maybe Slytherins just aren’t built for finesse,” he said, just loud enough for Y/n to hear.

Y/n’s cheeks burned, but before she could retort, Adessa leaned closer and whispered, “Ignore them. You’re doing fine.”

She tried again, but the feather stayed still. Y/n sighed, deciding to move past the frustration and focus on what she was good at.

The greenhouses were humid and filled with the rich, earthy scent of soil. Professor Sprout handed out pairs of dragonhide gloves and set the class to work repotting shrivelfigs.

Y/n dug her hands into the dirt, carefully easing the roots of her plant into the new pot. She found herself smiling as she worked; there was something calming about the way the plants responded to her gentle touch.

“Excellent, Miss Nott!” Sprout exclaimed as she passed by. “You have quite the knack for Herbology.”

Adessa, working beside her, grinned. “Looks like I’ve got some competition.”

Y/n laughed softly. “I doubt that. You’re practically a legend in this class.”

“Well, maybe we’ll team up someday,” Adessa said with a wink.

As they worked, they talked about their favorite plants, laughing as Adessa recounted a story about her cousin Frank accidentally setting a Venomous Tentacula on fire during a family gathering.

For the first time since arriving at Hogwarts, Y/n felt a genuine connection with someone.

The classroom buzzed with energy as Professor Merrythought explained the day’s lesson.

“Today, we’ll practice a simple disarming spell. Expelliarmus may be basic, but in the right hands, it’s powerful,” she said, her eyes twinkling.

The students paired up, and Y/n found herself face-to-face with Sirius Black.

“Great,” Sirius muttered, rolling his eyes.

Y/n ignored him, gripping her wand tightly.

“Now, one of you will cast the spell, and the other will block it,” Merrythought instructed.

Sirius smirked. “Ladies first.”

Y/n raised her wand. “Expelliarmus!”

Sirius’s wand shot out of his hand and clattered to the floor. His smirk vanished, replaced by a look of surprise.

“Well done, Miss Nott!” Merrythought said, clapping her hands. “Perfect form!”

Sirius retrieved his wand, scowling. “Beginner’s luck.”

Y/n smirked, and readying her wand. “Don’t be so sure, Black.

They switched roles, and while Sirius managed to cast the spell, Y/n deflected it with ease. By the end of the lesson, she had caught the attention of the professor —and the frustration of Sirius.

The crisp breeze swept through the Quidditch pitch as Madam Hooch blew her whistle.

“Mount your brooms, everyone! When I say go, kick off gently and hover.”

Y/n took a deep breath, gripping the handle of her broom. As soon as Hooch gave the command, she kicked off the ground, and the broom responded smoothly, lifting her into the air.

Flying felt natural. She wasn’t as daring as some students, but her control and balance were flawless. She glided across the pitch, feeling the wind rush past her.

“Good form, Miss Nott,” Madam Hooch said approvingly.

After class, Adessa caught up to her. “You were amazing up there! Like you’ve been flying for years.”

“I’ve always loved flying,” Y/n admitted. “Someday, I’d love to play Quidditch.”

“You should try out,” Adessa said with a grin. “You’d be brilliant.”

“Maybe,” Y/n said, her voice hesitant, but her heart filled with warmth, playing quidditch was her dream. “It’s hard to imagine anyone in Slytherin actually wanting me on their team.”

“Well, if they don’t, they’re idiots,” Adessa said firmly.

Y/n smiled, feeling a warmth she hadn’t felt in days.

★ ° :. ★  *   •  °  * • ○ °:.○ ° ★° . *★ °  * • ★ °:. ★

Walking back to the courtyard, Y/n and Adessa ran into Sirius, James, Remus, and Peter in the courtyard. The boys were joking loudly, their easy camaraderie making Y/n feel like an outsider.

“Hey, Nott,” Sirius said, his smirk returning. Y/n’s smile fell, and she gave Remus a sad look. He couldn’t even look her in the eyes as his friends continued their taunting “Practicing spells to curse us all yet?”

James laughed, but Remus frowned. “Come on, Sirius. Lay off her will you?”

Y/n balled her fists. “I don’t need curses to deal with you, Black.”

Adessa stepped forward, her tone sharp. “She’s better than you give her credit for.”

Sirius raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t know you had a guard dog, Nott.”

Y/n felt her stomach twist but forced a sharp response. “I don’t need anyone to defend me.”

Her words surprised even herself, and for a moment, Sirius looked taken aback.

The group moved on, but Adessa gave Y/n’s hand a reassuring squeeze. “Don’t let them get to you. You’re better than that.”

Y/n smiled faintly and hugged the girl. “I’m lucky to have you, though.”

marissa took a walk on the beach to clear her head. her parents were supposed to be getting married & her dad left them. again. how could she think things were going to be different this time? as she continued walking, she heard someone call her & to her surprise, it was alex. she was the last person she ever expected to see. things had ended up really badly for them the last time she saw her & she felt responsible because the blonde wasn't in her right mind to start a relationship with someone when she was clearly still in love with someone else. ❛❛ hey, alex. i didn't expect to see you either. i just needed to take a walk to clear my head, you know? ❜❜ it felt a little uncomfortable taking to alex again but maybe it was because the way the two had ended things.

@story1ines liked this for a starter, for Alex & Marissa

"Hey," she called out when she saw a familiar face. "I didn't expect to see you here." A small breath left her lips, "because of how things ended last time I saw you." Maybe they would get their chance again, or at least figure where they stood. Alex had a few questions that she wanted answers to, and hopefully she would be ready to hear those answers if she actually had the courage to ask them.

SCENE/PUNK GIRL LIKERS COME GET YOUR FOOD

Spooal lore dump over these two and more about the Kiddlings in general for whomever cares under the cut

SO. THESE TWO. These two were the leaders of ALL★STAR before Ace took over, on the right is Starla (Madeleine Forrest, a devil) and the left is Indigo (Selena Kiddling, a gargoyle)! They led ALL★STAR for about a 8 years before Starla said enough was enough and urged Selena to quit with her. This lead to Selena passing the torch to Agar before Agar later handed it to Ace.

When they first met Selena was about 16, she was highly curious about the gang that her family paid protection fees to, though she looked a little too close and got pulled into a tussle with a rivalling gang, being pulled out of the way just in time by Starla, sparking their lifelong friendship! Starla introduced Selena to ALL★STAR's first leader, Pip, and later rose the ranks and became the second leader!

As of the start of the story they are happily married! Starla is 29 and Selena is 28 and live with the rest of the Kiddlings in the building above the bakery.

As far as family dynamics go

Selena is the oldest of the 3, Ace is the middle child and Miley is the youngest. While Ace and Selena are both fully related, Miley is their younger half sister but in their eyes it doesn't matter about blood, she's just their baby sister :) they're trying their best to divert her from following their path, at least one sibling should stay clean

As far as parents go, they have Alessio (their father,49) Marissa (miley's mother/ace+selena's step mother,52) and Bianca (selena+ace's mother, would've been 48). Bianca sadly passed from severe pneumonia when Selena and Ace were fairly young (12+8 respectivly)

As far as random fun facts!:

Ace and Selena both have mild athsma ( same as their mother)

Selena lost her wings during a fight with Panthera's leader Bravery. Bravery later did the same to Ace during his time with the group

Miley and Selena are named after Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez! Ace is named after the motorhead song Ace of Spades (Spade makes up the other half)

Starla and Selena are currently trying to have a kid :)! Once they do they want to name them Ken/Kenny

The Kiddling kids grew up christian but they mostly turned out to be atheists, their parents are still very strong believers though (they love and accept their kids being queer though!)

Ace wound up being a father before Selena lol

Feel free to ask about them any time!!!!

ARC Review: The Cursed Rose by Leslie Vedder

Preorder:

Add to Goodreads:

Publication Date: February 6, 2024

Synopsis:

The fate of a cursed kingdom rests on ancient secrets, broken promises, and fierce friendships in this gasp-worthy final book of the bestselling twisted fairytale Bone Spindle series. **Perfect for fans of Margaret Rogerson, Holly Black, and Marissa Meyer** Not all curses should be broken. Not all fairytales end happily ever after. Fi is a prisoner. Briar, a monster. Shane's a warrior. And Red is a traitor. What was once a formidable group of four fighting to reawaken the kingdom is now ruptured, torn apart by the wicked Spindle Witch. Confined to a tower with the monstrous Briar Rose, Fi is caught in the Spindle Witch’s ever-tightening web. With the Spindle Witch on the verge of finding the Siphoning Spells and crushing Andar—with Fi’s help, no less—Fi’s only hope lies in decoding the ancient riddle of the Rose Witches before she loses Briar forever. Shane is desperate to save Andar—and her partner. She’s on the hunt for a weapon left by the mysterious Lord of the Butterflies, which holds the key to the Spindle Witch’s demise. Her love for Red has only fortified. But Red’s betrayal puts her in danger from a new enemy—the Spindle Witch’s executioner, the Wraith, a witch as powerful as he is cruel. The future of Andar lies in the secrets of its past. Fi and Shane must take on the greatest lost ruin of them all—the Tomb of Queen Aurora. Filled with vicious bone monsters, new alliances, and surprises at every turn, prepare to be swept away by this taut, clever, and heart-filled series conclusion.

My Rating: ★★★★★

*My Review below the cut.

My Review:

This was a fantastic end to the trilogy and one of my favorite books of 2024 so far. I was surprised at how quickly everything from the previous books came back to me once I started reading, even though I was sure I didn't remember much. There are no obvious "this is what already happened" sections either. Once I started reading I couldn't put it down and finished it in two days.

I love how Leslie Vedder took what is on the surface a Sleeping Beauty retelling and completely transformed it, giving it a hefty dose of Indiana Jones and so much more depth than the original tale. The characters are also fantastic, complex and compelling and difficult. I was absolutely hooked from the first moments of the first book to the final moments of the last. I love how, even when things seemed to be wrapping up, there were so many surprises and unexpected moments. I never knew what to expect.

The writing is fabulous and sucked me in immediately. The magic is both beautiful and ominous. The setting is incredibly vivid as well, and there are so many scenes that would make amazing paintings.

I am sad to come to the end of Fi and Shane and Briar and Red's tale. I would love to see a spinoff series of their adventures after the events in Andar. Especially if Perrin and the Paper Witch were to make cameo appearances. I will be keeping an eye out for Leslie Vedder's next book - she's jumped onto my shortlist of autobuy authors at this point.

*Thanks to NetGalley and Razorbill for providing an early copy for review.

Oieeee, booklovers!

O post veio meio tarde, mas veio e é isso que importa kkkkkkk Pior que foi uma luta pra achar os livros que li pq parece q o Skoob tem algo contra terminar livro no dia em que começou, ent as datas acabaram meio bugadas 🤡

🌻| (In) Sensibilidade - Lola Luz (01)

Págs: 67 | Classificação no Skoob: 2,4★| Nota: 1,5★

Sem querer ofender, mas ofendendo, o livro parece que foi escrito por uma garota de 12 anos. É aquela clássica história: a nerd e o bad boy e a personalidade dos personagens é basicamente isso. Só.

Tem vários palavrões e o romance veio literalmente do nada. Tipo, ele xingou ela por anos, aconteceu uma coisinha e aí ela perdoou e levou numa boa.

🍁| Da Mesma Cor - Giovana Fochi (01)

Págs: 50 | Classificação no Skoob: 4,6★| Nota: 4,5★

" Vincent sorriu e eu queria ter odiado aquele sorriso."💫

Depois de uma tistreza como o livro anterior, o mínimo que eu poderia fazer era ler algo descente. E Da Mesma Cor foi mais do que apenas descente.

Simplesmente amei a escrita da autora, me envolveu completamente. Os personagens foram bem construídos, para um livro tão curtinho, e o casal me lembra a Anne e o Gilbert (da série) versão anos 80.

Tem o enemies to lovers, a ruivinha órfã e estressadinha com o moreno levemente doido e de bem com a vida. Só não dei 5 estrelas pq o final é "aberto."

• Pra qm não viu, já falei dele aqui ;)

🌻| A Última Livraria de Paris - Marcelle Lopez (04)

Págs: 38 | Classificação no Skoob: 3,9★| Nota: 5★

"— O que a faz pensar que estou em uma guerra contra livrarias, Elyna?

— A minha foi a única que sobrou.

— Talvez eu quisesse lhe dar mais clientes." 🦋

Outro enemies to lovers nacional de respeito! Não entendi pq a média geral no Skoob é tão baixinha, achei o livro incrível, lembra aqueles filmes de comédia romântica da Sessão da Tarde - e me passou uma vibe Cartas para Julieta.

Como podemos ver, envolve ✨livrarias em Paris✨. A última delas pra ser mais exata, após todas as outras fecharem misteriosamente.

O mistério não é lá essas coisas, mas o romance é fofinho e clichê <3

🍁| Cecília Vargas em: Incêndio na Casa Grande - Kézia Garcia (06)

Págs: 131 | Classificação: 4,2★| Nota: 4,5★

"— Parece que você andou perguntando sobre mim por aí. Não sei se deveria ficar lisonjeado ou preocupado.

— A única razão para você ficar preocupado é se tiver algo a esconder."🍂

Apesar do mistério/romance não ser nada muito incrível ou espetacular, ainda achei a escrita da autora muito boa e a Ceci me divertiu muito kkkkkk

Foi meu primeiro livro da Kézia e me deixou com uma impressão muito boa dela, tanto que li outros dois no mesmo mês.

A Ceci está indo passar um tempo na casa dos avós, em Itaipaema, onde crimes nunca acontecem. Ao menos, isso é o que dizem.

Por falar nisso, parece que o segundo volume vem aí hein, vou ficar de plantão na Amazon ;)

🌻| Renegados - Marissa Meyer (17/10 - 20/10)

Págs: 512 | Classificação: 4,4★| Nota: 4,5★

"- Está todo mundo bem?

Nova abriu bem os braços.

- Estamos presos em um prédio em chamas. O que você acha?"💫

Nesse mundo, existem três opções: ser um renegado e sempre salvar o dia (ainda que seguindo um monte de regras que atrapalham suas missões), ser um vilão e estragar o dia (embora essa seja a visão dos renegados, pq nem tudo é tão simples assim) ou ser uma pessoa normal esperando ser salva (mesmo quando poderia muito bem se salvar sozinha).

Mas, nesse mundo, também há exceções e essas exceções se chamam Adrian e Nova. Ele, um renegado que não gosta de seguir regras. E ela, uma vilã não tão má assim.

Cara, eu AMEI esse livro, maluco demais!

Tá aí algo que eu nunca tinha visto.

🍁| O dia que a minha vida mudou.. - Keka Reis (22)

Págs: 204 | Classificação: 3,8★| Nota: 5★

"O Bereba roubou pão na casa do João. Quem eu? Você! Eu não! Então quem foi?"🦋

É um livro infanto-juvenil, então não dá pra esperar muita coisa da história em si, mas cara, vcs não têm ideia da nostalgia que eu fiquei lendo isso aqui!

Nossa, isso lembrou MUITO meu 5°/6° ano, os passeios, como a gente era, as músicas, nossas maluquices kkkkkkk foi uma leitura maravilhosa 🫶🏻

Tem um romance básico, bem levinho, super indico pra qm tem na faixa de 11/12 anos - qm é mais velho tbm vai gostar, claro kkkkkkk

🌻| Brilhante como Ouro - Kézia Garcia (30 - 31)

Págs: 250 | Classificação: 4,1★| Nota: 5★

"— Ouso dizer que é o desenho mais bonito deste caderno. Mas é claro que o modelo ajuda."💫

Esse livro me deixou muito feliz pq cara, eu não tinha um crush literário desse jeito há MESES, já tava achando que tinha algo de errado cmg kkkkkk

Brilhante como Ouro tem romance, aventura e mistério - me diz se a Kézia não é incrível???

Aurora vem sendo seguida por um garoto misterioso há pelo menos um ano, após o assassinato de sua mãe, mas toda vez que ela vai mostrá-lo a alguém, ele desaparece e todos pensam que ela está tendo alucinações.

Mas será que são mesmo alucinações?

🍁| Entre Flechas e Sapatos de Cristal - Kézia Garcia (31/10)

Págs: 76 | Classificação: 4,1★| Nota: 4,5★

"— Bem, acho que, de uma forma meio atrapalhada, a gente combina. A fada artesã que não consegue fazer obras duradouras e a fada do amor que não consegue juntar os casais certos."🍂

Aqui nós temos a história da Cinderela - uau, quem diria, né?kkkkkk -, só que pelo ponto de vista da fada madrinha, no caso, a Dinx.

É uma ideia genial? Sim! Poderia ser melhor? Poderia, mas o livro é ok, só meio curtinho demais - na minha humilde opinião.

🌻| Quais foram as leituras de outubro de vcs?

Bjs e boas leituras <3

Not Your Sidekick by C.B. Lee - blurrypetals review

originally posted jan. 7, 2025 - ★★★☆☆

[read for my book club, Prose and Cons]

I think this had a lot of good elements to it. The romance was sweet, the worldbuilding was decent, but in the end, I really did not connect with the writing style.

And I'm really torn on how important that is to me! A big part of me was pretty bored while reading, but then something cute or interesting would happen and I would start having a good enough time to want to keep going.

This did feel like it had a lot of elements from other YA novels I've read, like if Lee took pieces of Renegades by Marissa Meyer (though this does predate that series), Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi, and a dash of Uglies by Scott Westerfeld, but most of the time I found myself wishing I was just rereading one of those instead...well, maybe not Uglies.

I did enjoy the romance between Jess and Abby a lot and it was definitely the highlight of the whole book. I didn't know this was sapphic going into it, so it was a nice surprise. I also enjoyed the way queerness was treated in the story in general, like it was just as normal a thing as anything else.

Honestly, my biggest gripe with it is just that damned writing style! The sentences were so plain, there was little to no style or substance to it. The audiobook narrator, Emily Woo Zeller, is usually a favorite of mine, but her performance was so robotic here, but the text didn't give her much to work with, there was no way she could have given a very lively performance with the text given here.

In the end, this wasn't a bad time, but I think with more style added onto the substance, I would have enjoyed it a whole lot more. I probably wouldn't read another book from this series, but might keep an eye on Lee's future work someday to see if she's grown since writing this book.
