Callie Hart is one of my favorite authors and Quicksilver was my most anticipated read this year. I’m so glad she’s getting the hype on this book she deserves. ❤
I absolutely loved the way Callie Hart built intrigue even in single pov. I felt like I could read between the lines sometimes when Saeris couldn't and it had me so hooked. Dying for the sequel! And can't wait to get to Touch of Gold and Madness!
i went into quicksilver with absolutely zero expectations and it EXCEEEEDED ALL OF THEMMM i finished that book slightly obsessed. and the next one being released in october is perfeeeect!!
Yay! Really liked this video as always Rachel. I have some of your recs on my tbr and I'm really excited to read them! (The Veiled Kingdom, Fear The Flames and Heavenly Bodies)
I was so bored with Nectar of the Wicked too. I was intrigued and the cover was so pretty but I DNF’d. I couldn’t drag myself through it. So pumped that you loved Quicksilver! Yay! 🧚
Girl, I am telling you. Reign & Ruin by JD Evans has this! The tortured, hates himself just a little bit male main character who loves the badass (politically, intelligence-wise, and magically) female main character is there. Please read it! I'm definitely going to read Quicksilver now. Thanks for sharing!
I always go back and forth regarding our bat boys.. but I think Cassian is a tiny bit more at the front.. but one thing I’m forever and ever is a Rowan and Ruhn girlie 💕 I’m currently in my contemporary era 😱 but I’m already excited to get back into fantasy will start with Quicksilver!!
I’ve been eying A Touch of Gold and Madness but hadn’t heard much about it. So thanks for your review and raving-I’ll definitely put it at the top of my TBR!
Omg quick silver and touch of gold and madness I NEED TO READ 😆😆but I am just about to finish reckless, then I am reading when the moon hatched! Which is a book you love also! So after that book I may need to read the above books after! I am hoping for back to back 5 stars!!!! ⭐️
Today's vlog was magnificent 😍 Quicksilver and A Touch Of Gold And Madness I'm going to be there for them.✨✨I don't think I have the right to give my opinion yet bc I just read Acotar's book one and I'm waiting for an special spanish edition for book two to be released but I'll say I'm a Rhys 💜girlie although I think I can also be a Cassian girlie 😅don't blame me. Btw Rachel I'm proud to tell you that your blog and the love you showed for SJM universe were some of the main reasons for me to pick up the series and as a result I immerse myself more in romantasy and it's definitely has been a life-changing so thank u for that🫶🏽Hope u are having a great Sunday 🧚🏽♀️🧚🏽♀️🧚🏽♀️
I hope you start a bookclub or a patreon soon, you're probably the only RUclipsr who I would subscribe to. I need as much content from you as possible lol !
Nectar of the Wicked didn’t do it for me, too spicy not enough plot. HATED the MMC. The 2nd book was better though and we got dual POV and a lot more plot (more like the first 50 pages of book 1). Completely agree with all your thoughts on that
I’m a Rhys girlie! But Azriel is my close second! Though I do still love Cassian! These books definitely sound like books I would enjoy so I’ll have to add them to my wishlist! 😅
🧚. I’m so glad you liked Quicksilver. It has made my top 5 books so far for the 2024 year. Been struggling to find another book to read after that. Found Crown of Light and Shadows which I also loved with 4.5 star rating for me. But now you have me interested in Touch of Gold & Madness
I’m a Rhys girl 🖤💜 I DNF’d quicksilver because of the MMC, I wasn’t vibing with him at the first because of the same reasons so maybe I should push through! I like a slow burn romance and felt like it moved a little too fast for me at first….. now I want to continue 😆
I'm a Rhys girlie but I love Az and Cas too tbh. Can I be a "I want them all" girlie? haha. Great video Rachel! Convinced me to read Quicksilver and I'm loving it so thank you.
Hi Rachel as you have a clear kindle case, do you use a screen protector as to protect the kindle from getting scratches and stuff and would you recommend getting one?
I seem to have very similar taste to you, and I trust your recommendations so much. As your favourite is badass MFC and tormented MMC please please read the fae isles series by Lisette Marshall starting with court of blood and bindings. I don't understand why nobody talks about this series. It is my favourite fantasy romance series and I have read over 100 of them this year. I want some hype for Creon and Emelin, my favourite characters.
love ur videos soooo much. i have a question: is quicksilver a good read if i am trying to get out of a reading slump??? is it fast paced and easy to read??? thank u sm ! ☺
🧚♀I read Nectar of the Wicked earlier this month and I really enjoyed it. I gave it 4 stars. i have Quicksilver and plan to read it sometime this year, but fall is coming soon and I like reading gothic & dark academia books in the fall.
Ahhhhh! I loved ATOGAM too❤ ..wow it was complex😅I cannot wait to read Quicksilver 🦋✨and once again I LOVE the way you talk about books 🙏🏽 I've had multiple 5⭐️ rec's from you I picked up based solely on your descriptions.. so thank you!!! ngl I would love to hear more of your spoilery thoughts as well😂! PS. im always sooo torn between Cassian and Azriel 🔥🫠 I love them both and dying for AZ's book.. million dollar question tho that keeps me up at night.. Gwen or Elaine 😬 ??
You're asking me to pick between Rhy, Azriel and Cassian??? Girl, I'm the biggest fictional wh*re when it comes to those men- I'm gonna want all of them lol! I'm the bat boys girly!!! 😘💕🦇💘📖🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
As love interests Cassian is forever my number 1 with Rhys as a solid 2nd. Az is third by default, but really I want to boot him off the pedestal. He’s a good friend, but as a love interest… he gives me Edward Cullen vibes, which is not meant as a compliment 😂
🧚♀️🧚🧚♂️ I was debating on starting Nectar of the Wicked. Since we have similar reading tastes I may try physically reading it instead of using an audible credit. I get unreasonable mad if my audiobook isn’t at least a 4⭐️😂
I've always been a Cassian girlie, since he was introduced I've been obsessed with him. But the true question is are you a Cassian, Hunt or Rowan girlie?!
I ended up DNFing nectar of the wild for all the reasons you said. The books is so so gorgeous. I sold my FL copy and I hated that I had to lol. I have to have a true romance or I won’t read it. Way too much spice too quickly and it literally made no sense to me
We are 1-2 books away from Rachel officially declaring herself to be in a dark fantasy romance era.
no one is more shocked than I! also i’m literally reading another dark fanro right now 😂
The universe heard your 3 star cry and said “here damnit”😂.
When Rachel loves a book, i hit add to cart immediately
Can we have a bookshelf tour soon pls Rachel 🥹 so jealous of your shelves every video ❤
yes I want to do another in this year!!
Callie Hart is one of my favorite authors and Quicksilver was my most anticipated read this year. I’m so glad she’s getting the hype on this book she deserves. ❤

„Hold on to the headboard“ 😭😭😭😂
Same for me, I‘m a total Cassian girlie rn but I think if we ever get an Azriel book..the tables will turn
I asked my husband what kind of books he thinks I read. His response after looking at the ToG covers: "princess assassin books". Nailed it
i went into quicksilver with absolutely zero expectations and it EXCEEEEDED ALL OF THEMMM i finished that book slightly obsessed. and the next one being released in october is perfeeeect!!
yeah i was excited but didnt know if it would be a 5 star and it totally blew me away!! I can’t wait for book 2 😍
I'm so glad you gave Onyx a special mention. Gorgeous little creature! ❤
The fire sprites, too.
Yay! I was hoping for a new video to watch! I just bought The Coven, Touch of Gold & Madness, and Quicksilver 🦋
I’m a Rhys girlie! 💜
He really took residence in our hearts. They can never make me hate Rhys♥
Rhys girly through and through! I can’t wait for quicksilver. 🧚
Everything you said about Quicksilver was spot on!!! Loved it so much!! 😍😍
Az all the way but Rhys is a verrrrrry close second. Such a fun vlog! 🧚♀️
Yes!!! I just recently read both quicksilver and a touch of gold and madness and both are
Best books of the year!! Onto nectar of the wicked!
Cassian girly here! Rhys lost me in ACOSF 😢
🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️ def reading Quicksilver next after that review! Eee so excited 🎉
Yay! Really liked this video as always Rachel. I have some of your recs on my tbr and I'm really excited to read them! (The Veiled Kingdom, Fear The Flames and Heavenly Bodies)
I was so bored with Nectar of the Wicked too. I was intrigued and the cover was so pretty but I DNF’d. I couldn’t drag myself through it. So pumped that you loved Quicksilver! Yay! 🧚
Yaaayy!! I knew you would love Quicksilver!!❤❤❤🎉
new subscriber ! I LOVED quicksilver too, it was an easy ready for me and I did not want to put the book down.
Girl, I am telling you. Reign & Ruin by JD Evans has this!

@@krystalchapman8242 adding this to my list!!
OMFG THESE BOOK SELECTIONS!!!!
I read Quicksilver after watching this vlog. Loved it!!!!

A Cassian girly for sure! Love me my tattooed golden retrievers 🫶🏻
Just added to more books to my TBR lol. I picked up Lady of Darkness and can't wait to start it.
Omg quick silver and touch of gold and madness I NEED TO READ 😆😆but I am just about to finish reckless, then I am reading when the moon hatched! Which is a book you love also! So after that book I may need to read the above books after! I am hoping for back to back 5 stars!!!! ⭐️

Can’t wait to pick up Quicksilver! Also 100% Cassian - all time fave 🖤
Putting everything down and starting Quicksilver immediately🤩
16:12 peter protecting his mother, as he should
Nice! I always love getting my romantasy recs from you! Xo 🧚♀️
Oh and I'm a Rhys girlie forever.
Same as you, usually team Cassian, but when we FINALLY get Az's book, i may just be switching teams for good 😅
Okay, Quicksilver may have to be my next read!!! You've convinced me lol
I’ve been waaaaiting for this one 🤩
Nectar of the Wicked didn’t do it for me, too spicy not enough plot. HATED the MMC. The 2nd book was better though and we got dual POV and a lot more plot (more like the first 50 pages of book 1). Completely agree with all your thoughts on that
yes quicksilver definitely worth the hype!
Yes, the spice in Quicksilver was better than I was expecting… and I’m here for it!! Definitely put Callie Hart on my radar now😂😉🔥🔥
I’m a Rhys girlie! But Azriel is my close second! Though I do still love Cassian! These books definitely sound like books I would enjoy so I’ll have to add them to my wishlist! 😅
I am loving your reviews, to answer your initial question I am a Cassian girl all the way....he is everything.
As you don't have a screen protector for your kindle, how do you protect it from getting scratches then?
🧚 loved this. So many great recs for me to add ❤
Oh. and deff a Rhys girlie for life!
Absolutely love Quicksilver
your shelves are so gorgeous!!
thank you 😍
Inspired to read Quicksilver thank you
How do you read so fast?? When do you normally read? I love this video concept and appreciate your thoughts on these books and new releases. 🧚
Currently reading the Lady of Darkness series & it’s so good!! I’ve been searching for a really good fantasy romance series & I hope I’ve found it!! 🧚
i’m so glad!
🧚♀️ !! Loved this
I’m so excited to read Quicksilver! 🦋 I’m trying to hold off until the audiobook to come out! 🎧
🧚. I’m so glad you liked Quicksilver. It has made my top 5 books so far for the 2024 year. Been struggling to find another book to read after that. Found Crown of Light and Shadows which I also loved with 4.5 star rating for me. But now you have me interested in Touch of Gold & Madness
Still a Rhys girl here! He stole my heart first and never gave it away!
I’m a Rhys girl 🖤💜
I DNF’d quicksilver because of the MMC, I wasn’t vibing with him at the first because of the same reasons so maybe I should push through! I like a slow burn romance and felt like it moved a little too fast for me at first….. now I want to continue 😆
I'm a Rhys girlie but I love Az and Cas too tbh. Can I be a "I want them all" girlie? haha. Great video Rachel! Convinced me to read Quicksilver and I'm loving it so thank you.
Hi Rachel
as you have a clear kindle case, do you use a screen protector as to protect the kindle from getting scratches and stuff and would you recommend getting one?
i don’t have a screen protector 😊
@@ravenhairedreader How do you protect it from getting scratches then?
I don’t really do anything to protect it, i’m just careful with it and haven’t had any issues or damage occur
@@ravenhairedreader oh thanks
Lol I really liked Kingfisher even despite the way he sometimes came across in the beginning. I didn’t really feel like he was too much.
I think about Cassian constantly. If you love Nedra and Cassian read Embers & Light ff. It’s not finished but it’s worth it.
I feel like Maxantarius is kind of like how you’ve described Kingfisher.
I seem to have very similar taste to you, and I trust your recommendations so much. As your favourite is badass MFC and tormented MMC please please read the fae isles series by Lisette Marshall starting with court of blood and bindings. I don't understand why nobody talks about this series. It is my favourite fantasy romance series and I have read over 100 of them this year.

heard a touch of gold and madness has a jekyll and hyde element (idc about spoilers) is that true??
Thank you for sharing! ❤🧚♀️
love ur videos soooo much. i have a question: is quicksilver a good read if i am trying to get out of a reading slump??? is it fast paced and easy to read??? thank u sm ! ☺
Rhys girliee🎀
🧚♀I read Nectar of the Wicked earlier this month and I really enjoyed it. I gave it 4 stars. i have Quicksilver and plan to read it sometime this year, but fall is coming soon and I like reading gothic & dark academia books in the fall.
I also enjoyed the nectar of the wicked duology and ended up giving it 4🌟 first book's ending was amazing 😩😭
Ahhhhh! I loved ATOGAM too❤ ..wow it was complex😅I cannot wait to read Quicksilver 🦋✨and once again I LOVE the way you talk about books 🙏🏽 I've had multiple 5⭐️ rec's from you I picked up based solely on your descriptions.. so thank you!!! ngl I would love to hear more of your spoilery thoughts as well😂! PS. im always sooo torn between Cassian and Azriel 🔥🫠 I love them both and dying for AZ's book.. million dollar question tho that keeps me up at night.. Gwen or Elaine 😬 ??
Azriel for sure ❤
You're asking me to pick between Rhy, Azriel and Cassian??? Girl, I'm the biggest fictional wh*re when it comes to those men- I'm gonna want all of them lol! I'm the bat boys girly!!! 😘💕🦇💘📖🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
this is such a valid answer 👏🏼
As love interests Cassian is forever my number 1 with Rhys as a solid 2nd. Az is third by default, but really I want to boot him off the pedestal. He’s a good friend, but as a love interest… he gives me Edward Cullen vibes, which is not meant as a compliment 😂
Where did you find the two different editions of quiksilver?
🧚♀️🧚🧚♂️
I was debating on starting Nectar of the Wicked. Since we have similar reading tastes I may try physically reading it instead of using an audible credit. I get unreasonable mad if my audiobook isn’t at least a 4⭐️😂
I flip between Cassian and Rhys but for the most part recently I’m a Cassian girlie
if i found out my girl had a romance fantany book wall, i would give her a nobel prize
Definitely an Az girlie💙
I'm a Rhys girlie! ❤
Rhys girlie but I think Azriels book could change my mind💜💜💙
I am a Cassian girlie, but once we get the Azriel book it coulddd change 🤔😄💞
I'm not a huge fantasy romance reader once it gets super spicey. Does anyone have good recommendations for romantasy books with lesser spice?
I’ll forever be a Rhys girl but I am so desperate for an Azriel book.
I've always been a Cassian girlie, since he was introduced I've been obsessed with him. But the true question is are you a Cassian, Hunt or Rowan girlie?!
omg Rowan for sure over everything!
Rhysand girl!!!!
Cassian forever ❤
I ended up DNFing nectar of the wild for all the reasons you said. The books is so so gorgeous. I sold my FL copy and I hated that I had to lol. I have to have a true romance or I won’t read it. Way too much spice too quickly and it literally made no sense to me
What if I’m a Lucien girlie? 🦊
Gasp. The Hunger Games lol. The hype is so real, one of the greatest to ever do it.
I dunno if it's me or not but the cover of nectar of the wicked is kind of identical to style of cover of the j. Bree's the bond's that tie series 🤨🤔
1000% a cassian girly here 😭
It’s Cassian for me. 🤤
Always Rhys! Then Az
🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️ thanks for the vlog ! I would like to know if you read or are going to read the Kingkiller Chronicle because that hype is on steroids 😂
oooh i haven’t heard of this I’ll look into it 👀
🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️🩵
Rachel, will you give a shot to the Doon novel by Carey Corp please.
🦋🦋
🧚 🧚♀️ 🧚♂️
🧚
🧚🧚♀️❤❤❤
I wish the cover was better for Quicksilver LOL
🧚🏾♀️
🧚♂️🧚♂️🧚♂️
🧚♀️
I cannot for the life of me find that other version of Quicksilver 😢
it must be sold out 😔 hopefully it gets restocked!
