» What bothers you more.. mismatched covers or sizes? hello friends, Because let me tell you, I hate both with a burning passion. I am so bummed that my US hardcovers of this trilogy no longer match. I understand why they changed it but it still sucks. ♡ I am in such an awful reading slump, I think it’s because I still cannot wear my AirPods. I didn’t realize how much I was relying on audiobooks until I could no longer listen to them. Stupid piercings… » hashtags:. #kerrimaniscalco #kingdomofthewicked #kingdomofthecursed #bookstack #stack #BookstagramCommunity #BooksAreMagic #AvidReader #BookCommunity #Books #ReadingCommunity #Bookstagrammer #BooksOfInstagram #BookDragon #Bookstagram #BookLoversOfInstagram  #ReadersOfInsta #ReadingIsMagic #FantasyBooks #BookLove #BookPics #BookNerdigans #InstagramReads #BookNerds #BooksToRead (at Boise, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClmVYQGSsw7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Shockingly, I consider this to be the best book out of the three. In the first two books, Emilia's naivety got on my nerves. While there were moments that certainly happened in this one—such as thinking you could subtly interrogate a duke of hell while writhing in his lap—thankfully this story wasn't introducing her to new characters and situations left and right, leaving her all but completely out of the loop. Her relationship with Wrath is more settled, she understands the politics of this world, and has grown into her power. All good things! That being said, the main criticisms I have revolves around the plot was moved forward, Emilia's overpoweredness, and especially the ending. I had no investment in the murder mystery—why would I care about some random side character we never met?—and while Vittoria's goals made sense, the execution of her plans did not, particularly when viewed retroactively. Without any spoilers, I was disappointed by the "sacrifice" of the ending, but more particularly about how that sacrifice was "corrected." Women aren't allowed to have power of their own, it appears. I've also seen some criticisms regarding the amount of sex in this book. Because it was marketed as YA, there are certain expectations that go along with that. This entire series should have been NA, given the hellscape setting and themes. While the language used is not "adult" (euphemisms abound) it's very clear what is happening without it. As an adult reader, I didn't have a problem with it, but someone else might. I also don't understand the reaction of "Wrath is boring now"—what is boring about loving, supporting, (and basically worshiping) your badass wife? 📸 Scroll through for some brief thoughts I posted on my Tumblr as I read along. EDIT: apparently it didn't like my photos. Sorry. 📚 Maniscalco, Kerri. Kingdom of the Feared.

Capturing the Devil by Kerri Maniscalco has everything well-knitted and seamlessly added without taking away from the core plot. Read the full review of the book at

“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐲,” 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝. “𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲, 𝐈’𝐝 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧, 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠.” . . . Finally finished this after numerous attempts since 2019. I don't hate it but I don't love it either. I do have a copy of the 2nd book so I might just give this series a second chance. #stalkingjacktheripper #kerrimaniscalco #mystery #horrorfiction #bookstagrammer #bookdragon #booklover #bookish #bookphotography #instabook #instaread #readingaddict #readinglife #thereaderslounge https://www.instagram.com/p/Cov_4a7v0zU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here with some more of Miss Audrey Rose Wadsworth from the Stalking Jack the Ripper series by @kerrimaniscalco. This look from the third installment, Escaping from Houdini is one of my absolute favorites and the very kind and sweet @oblivionsdream m was able to take my request and make it so flawless and breathtaking! I love how fierce and also girly Audrey Rose is in this book, as well as the setting of the carnival which really adds to the whimsical and fantastical elements and aspects of the novel. The blue gown Audrey Rose wears has always been a favorite of mine, so I couldn’t wait to see @oblivionsdream bring it to life!

“I don’t know how you’ve fooled humanity for so long, but it’s as Envy said. You are the most skilled liar of all.” —Kerri Maniscalco, Kingdom of the Cursed •——————————————————————————• Is anyone else excited about Envy’s book Throne of the Fallen? I can’t believe we have to wait until, like October to get it! I’ll have to settle for rereading this series between now and then. •——————————————————————————• #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #kingdomofthewicked #kingdomofthecursed #kingdomofthefeared #kerrimaniscalco #bookworm #constantreader #bookphotography #booknerdigans #bibliophile #bookaddict #booklove #fantasy #fantasybooks #bookcommunity #pins #pinsofinstagram #bookishpins https://www.instagram.com/p/CpJDK2hrQZM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Priory of the Orange Tree & The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue were impulse buys. Although I’ve always been a fan of V. E. Schwab, I hadn’t read anything from her in several years so when I read the synopsis, I was sold. I initially listened to Kingdom of the Wicked and Kingdom of the Cursed audiobooks before Kingdom of the Feared released and absolutely loved the story. When I saw the B&N special edition box set, I had to bring it home. #sarahdoughty #fantasybooks #fantasybooktok #fantasybookrecs #fantasyreads #booktokfypage #booktokfyp #bookrecommendations #bookrecs #bookstore #bookhaul #barnesandnoble #theprioryoftheorangetree #theinvisiblelifeofaddielarue #kingdomofthewicked #kingdomofthecursed #kingdomofthefeared #samanthashannon #veschwab #kerrimaniscalco

La semana pasada terminé de leer El ascenso de las temidas, el final de la trilogía El reino de los malditos de @kerrimaniscalco Fue un buen final, aunque me dejó con la sensación de que se alargó innecesariamente la parte final. Aunque lo compensó con la de novedades que aporta a la trama de la trilogía. Creo que aquí hay mundo para desarrollar bastantes más historias y personajes de lo más interesante que aun necesitan su propia novela ¿no creéis? En resumen una saga interesante cuyos protagonistas se pierden un poco en el último libro pero que se lee muy bien y entretiene bastante. ¿Qué os pareció a vostr@s? ¿Os gustó? #librosjuveniles #librosgram #instalibros #librosylibros #librosenespañol #TW #lecturadirecta #bookblogger #bookstagram #booklove #instabooks #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #bookcommunity #readingtime #leer #fotografiadelibros #literatura #literature #yalit #elascensodelastemidas #elreinodelosmalditos #kingdomofthewicked #kingdomofthefeared https://www.instagram.com/p/ConcnNRrNMU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Four Fictional Crushes

Ooh, this is a fun game!! Thanks for the tags @snowbellewells! (I am sorry that it has taken this long to get back to you!)

Well, let's get the obvious one out of the way:

Killian Jones

Part-cruel villain, part-black lab mix. No one compares to Killian Jones (Once Upon A Time).

Thomas Cresswell

(Hopefully, that attached the post...absolutely not trying to steal work.)

Thomas (Stalking Jack the Ripper) is a puppy dog from the first page and I adore him. I do think of him as a bit older than he is written in canon, but otherwise he is perfect and I adore him. (Kerri Maniscalco can write dreamy men - I love her Kingdom of the Wicked series and the spinoffs from that series so, so much, too.)

Roarke

Roarke (In Death) was my original book husband, so I must include him. An Irish Billionaire with the clever fingers of a thief and an way with computers that makes hackers jealous. He is so proud and concerned and supportive of his wife and the sprinkling of Irish and his hint of an accent... swoon..

My fan casting

I think the fourth is... Wonka. I cannot explain it. It is the same reason this spot was almost the Doctor. A slightly unhinged dreamer... it just works for me..

Four Fictional Crushes

Ooh, this is a fun game!! Thanks for the tags @kmomof4 and @iamstartraveller776 !!!

Okay, first the two painfully obvious ones: (and honestly, you could easily do this whole thing from the OuaT cast!)

Sheriff Graham/the Huntsman

Killian Jones/Captain Hook

Wyatt Logan (Timeless)

Will Turner (PotC)

Okay, so that was hard to narrow down, and I was very tempted to put this guy (even though I probably shouldn’t be so drawn in) but @iamstartraveller776 is right, he’s hard to resist! 😏

Alexsander Morozova/the Darkling

Plus a couple old school ones that O will probably always love:

Pacey Witter (Dawson’s Creek)

Derek Morgan (Criminal Minds)

One of the very first book series I read at the start of my journey was the Stalking Jack the Ripper series. Ever since then, it’s been very near and dear to my heart, especially Audrey Rose Wadsworth. She’s such an inspiration and I love everything about her, and it’s always a joy to reread and see her journey. I love how she’s a forensic pathologist, and it’s always so fascinating reading about her and her love for what she does. I also love that she isn’t afraid to be girly and always enjoys stunning and beautiful dresses, despite her macabre job. I seriously cannot get enough of this beautiful piece by the insanely awesome and talented @lauriques who added such gorgeous and fitting elements I didn’t even think of! She truly made this piece come to life and I cannot thank her enough for taking my request!
