Rise of the Vicious Princess by C.J. Redwine

Summary: "Princess Charis Willowthorn is the dutiful sword of Calera. Raised to be ruthless and cunning, her only goal is to hold her war-torn kingdom together long enough to find a path toward peace with their ancient foe, Montevallo, even if the cost is her own heart."

I was gripped by this story for an entire weekend, and then I was devastated by the delayed release of the second book. 😭

Deception by C.J. Redwine

...why are you letting the person with a head wound sleep....
Hears a certain plot twist and is like....this sounds familiar...and remembers that I've read a book with a similar twist recently...
Aha. The setting is more clear in this book...Its a post-apocalyptic US. and now I'm like...wondering what city they're near. 
There were a couple of scenes where the harm to the body was a little bit too descriptive for my taste, but that's because I don't like descriptions of blood in relation to veins (yeah I have no idea why)
....This book actually made me cry...what is happening.

Blood Spell by C.J. Redwine

Sign language...YAAAAAAS
Protective older brothers. Heart eyes. Everything I've ever wanted. I'm fine. I'm dying. I can't.
I love Keenan. I love Keenan. I love Keenan. (For some reason he reminds me of Soren from the Dragon Prince).
You can't just name someone Nessa and expect me to not make Wicked References.... "What Is This Feeling?", anyone?
I repeat as I always repeat.... WHERE IS THE FANART AND FANFICTION.
Emotional vulnerability. Heart eyes
I love Grandmere. She sassy. *Grabs wand and starts throwing random threats* Samesies.
When two people can be themselves and they bring out the best in each other and see each other for who they are, and not who they pretend to be. Showing each other that they matter. Your girl loves it when someone is like "You matter; keep on living"
...Are books the reason I'm single?
*You can't kill me vine*

The Traitor Prince by C. J. Redwine

Javan, the cute nerd who's never gone out and studies all the time to make his dad proud...I feel attacked. Awkward dancing...like seriously same...same.....But how did he go from awkward to smooth in three seconds flat...teach me your ways.
*Banging pots and pans together* HONOR HONOR HONOR HONOR.... I'm fine... Javan...Heart eyes....I wanna know what aura I give off....Can my future husband take more notes please....because I love Javan. I stan characters who see themselves as monsters, and their love interests insisting that they're more than that. This story fills a core desire that weighs on my heart a lot....I need help. I love Sajda and Javan's interactions. *ten different crying gifs*
....And he prays...I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine... I love him. Can I keep him?
Fictional characters are the reason I'm single because my standards are so high....

I repeat once again. HOW IS THERE NOT MORE FANART.
