About Me
Hi! My name is Jenn! I started this channel in April of 2018 to meet bookish-minded people and be nerdy with them. I mostly focus on Romance Novels and I'm not afraid to get a little wild. After losing my job in early 2022, I started content creating full time. It's only because of the amazing Romance Community that I am able to do this.
Thanks so much for watching!
XOXO,
Jenn

So after I read God of war, I filmed a ranking video and I put in first place because I was just shocked about it like everything. Ava's mental health struggles and what Eli did to protect her, even though it was hurting her at the same time he couldn’t see that. But I love their romance and the epilogue got me
I loved this novel so much but it wrenched my heart out.
Craving danger sounds good. I’m going to have to start at the beginning of that series. Thanks for the recommendation!
great wrap-up!
Great video as always. I love The Ever King/Queen. Erik and Livia are everything. ❤
Going to check out Silver Fox. I've liked the Kayla Grosse I've read before
i loved god of war so much
Oooohhhh!! I've downloaded north &south from audible. It was free for me here in Canada. 👐🏾👐🏾👐🏾. Thanks for all the great recommendations you give us!! ❤❤❤❤
My dad has type one diabetes and I think I’m going to check out Things Left Unsaid to see if they did it right
I didn't like God of war. I felt rina planned originally to make Eli obsessed with ava from birth. But she changed her mind when people complained about the age gap. There was several plot holes due to this. In previous books, ava loved violence she literally cheered at all the fights. And at those nights where they have those masks and go around beating people up from the earlier books she loved it. For her to get married to Eli over him killing someone and out of fear made her sound dumb. Landon mentioned in previous books that Eli and ava were playing games with each other for years. Their Gardners even knew about them. For it to not even be discussed and just mentioned vaguely as ruining his hook ups were weird. Everyone was scared of touching ava because Eli would kill them another fact forgotten, when they were kids in the extended epilogue it's mentioned Eli would stare at ava while she played with Creighton and Landon. Eli would get upset if anyone said she was their fav. Then Elsa mentions to silver Eli was asking Aiden about marraige contracts. There was so much build up and because of the age gap being labeled pedophile rina changed the storyline.
Just a further reasoning as to why it sucked it felt like a full on rip off of rinas older books like vow of deception series, god of pain etc. Eli being unemotional didn't make sense. He would stare at ava all the time throughout the series. Call her not his family. And was warm to Creighton. His absence of warmth towards Eva made no sense. Aiden mentioned he was very clingy as a child I was hoping to see that. The other thing rina majorly ripped of was bridgerton. Eli called ava the bane of his existence and the scene she's out side reminded me of queen charlotte
I kept wishing for a special bond. Between them but it all felt rushed. Like she wrote this out in a few weeks and didn't look back at all. And I loved and shipped them so much I felt very disappointed by it. I loved Coles hatred for Eli it was hilarious. Lol.
Last comment on this I felt like ava and eli deserved an epic special bond love story. Knowing each other from birth. But I never felt it. This dude kissed her on the mouth the moment when she was born but it's never mentioned at all. It just made me sad. Rina let us all down.
Well, that is a very thoughtful review. You are absolutely welcome to your opinions here. I'm sorry you felt let down. I think there were a few mentions of their childhood that were left out. I agree. However, when I reread the series, I saw the moments where they were dancing around each other.
Also, kissing a baby when you're six is not an indication of obsession... my nieces and nephews kiss new babies they meet plenty of times. 🤷♀️
But please refrain from absolutes like "she let us ALL down..." cause obviously I gave it 5 stars and was very moved by it and so were many of my viewers.
I love a thoughtful discussion but my comments are not the place for trashing a book that I, myself loved... 😬🫠😉 save it for goodreads. There's plenty of 1 and 2 star reviews there.
My channel is my home on the internet. So please be kind.
@TheBookRefuge sorry about that didn't mean it to be an attack lol. Was just very emotional about it in the moment. I don't wanna stir anything ofcourse.
North & South is one of my favorite novels of all time. 💖
It is just so good! Very emotional and lovely.
I still think about god of war. Depending on the day it ranks 1st for me with God of Fury. I think I teared up so many times, particularly when he finds her playing the cello hauntingly (a pivotal pt) so i won't spoil but IYKYK. The unraveling of secrets was fascinating. I couldn't see how'd l'd even like Eli at 50% in the book but when you realllly get a look at him. Knowing what we then find out, he became my fav. In my goodreads review, i likened him Darcy. His love isn't flashy but its layers deep and you couldn't help but feel for him.
Yeah, he really surprised me. I still find Bran and Niko to be the most romantic in the series.. just... wow. So swoony.
But Eli was the most devoted. Absolutely. Very powerful.
I loved reading North and South with you ❤ and now i want to read A Heart For Milton!
Great review of God of War ❤
You're the BEST, big sis! :) And YES, a Heart for Milton is so sweet. It's needed after the angst fest we are put through. haha! My heart needs to bask in the love for a bit. Haha!
I definitely need to reread God Of War at a later date as a stand alone, I couldn't really appreciate it fairly right now as part of the series, because I've been waiting for it and it felt completely different than what I expected and of what we've been teased with for so long. At parts, it didn't feel like part of the same series. Maybe with a reread later, I can appreciate it more.
Happy you are reading King of Mafia series by Michelle Heard. I love how she writes Mafia Men. What rating did you give Craving Danger? I don't think its on the video.
It was a 4 Star for me! 😘😘
Good morning and thanks for sharing another wonderful video
❤️❤️❤️
I really liked Serena’s hockey series, but they are long and connected to the 5 points and i hadn’t finished that series yet when i read them 😂😂😂
I really need to read or watch North and South.
Yeah, she does go into LOTS of detail! It makes for a complex world but it also feels like you need to do homework to read. Even if it's a "new series". 😁🤣
But I will always have a soft spot for her.
Reading Savior it by Tara DeWitt and curvy Girl Summer by Danielle Allen right now😊
Abou Thr Ever King, oh my gosh I can't believe the FMC has the same name as me! I've never met another person named Livia in real life nor have I've ever seen any fictional characters with the name.
Going to buy The Ever King and God of War right now!!! Thank you 💜
Yay!! Love it!
I really need to watch North and South. I'm not sure if the character is also in the book, but there's a character named Ashton in the show and that's how my mom learned of that name and liked it so much that I ended up with it lol. I've heard her character is a jerk tho 😂
That is so cool!!! I'm drawing a blank right now... but there are a LOT of names. So that's totally possible I missed it.
Can I read craving danger as a standalone? I want to read it now, but I am not interested with the other books for now.
Yup! They are stand alones!
I'm telling u the first one is so good if u can give it a try it is my favourite 😍
I’ll definitely be skipping God of War… it sounds tedious and needlessly painful.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love North & South 🩷
I have the ebook of a Heart of Milton and have had it for at least over a decade and haven't read it yet 😬🫣 I really need to
Oh, it's a treat!
