The Raven's Requiem (Hymns of Havoc Book 1)

The way I devoured this book should be studied 😩. There was never a dull moment and the push and pull between the FMC had me kicking my feet. This was my first book by this author and I can say I was not disappointed!!! Just read the book I promise it is 100% worth all your time !!! I hope there are more books to come in the series .

This book was soo good! There are plot twists, the spice is so good, and I couldn't put the book down. I wouldn't normally read a book with the dynamic but I am really glad that I did! The angst and tension kept me on the edge of my seat!

This was a delightful find thanks to tik tok. This is the first sapphic story from this author, so I was a little apprehensive going in...but she knocks it out of the park. I hope she continues this series as a sapphic series, because there are definitely characters I want to see find their happily ever afters if possible. Actually the main negative I have for this book is that the majority of side characters are flat and never get a chance to truly shine. The ones that do though are great. Celeste and Noelle were a delightful, toxic af pairing that was fun to read. You don't get the full scope of the toxicness of both of them until the end. They manage to stay away from each other for the first half of the book, and then there is constant leveling up of their romance. There is the lightest dusting of kink in this book, but not as much as the author seemed to be advertising in her tik toks. Still pretty good though. The thing I loved about this book is that she doesn't just focus on the physical aspect of their relationship. She takes pains to develop the emotional connection as well. You can feel them falling in love, not just lust. Another point in this book's favor is the lack of third act breakup. There are several instances where it would have happened for anyone else, but they actually talk and grow as individuals and become closer. It's a breath of fresh air.

This book had my bisexual self wanting to live the life of these two characters. The tension between these two characters were so tense, spicy, suspenseful, and had you on the edge of your seat! At some points I had to give myself a break because it was just so overwhelming in the best way possible! I haven’t read a book this good in a very long time and I have so many bookmarks, so many quotes highlighted like this book is eye-opening on so many levels! It has a perfect amount of sexy time, it has the perfect amount of character development and thought processes and learning how to let go and just live life for yourself. Once you have this book in your hands, I promise you you’re going to have a hard time putting it down even if your face is red and your body is feeling things that are intense 🤭 The fact that I could find myself and parts of my real life, within every character of this book shows how much talent this author truly has!!! I wish I could give this book more than five stars because this is a book I can never forget and a book that helps you realize that sometimes you have to let go and just let the universe take control!!!

I didn't know what to expect from this author at first but I really enjoyed this book. It had some twists and turns but it definitely had great character development and who could go wrong with the added spice? Will be looking forward to other books by this author.
