★ What’s on your August agenda? I got this ARC of @elise.kova’s A Duel with the Vampire Lord in the mail recently, and am looking forward to starting it later this week! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Elise’s Married of Magic series, it’s great for fellow fans of fantasy romance. This one releases August 18th! (Check comments for description!) Later this month I also begin my grad school and teaching journey! I’ll be starting my pursuit of an MFA in creative writing, and I’ll be teaching first-year college composition. I’m both excited to get the ball rolling and a whole ball of anxious energy. 🤣 I have many days of orientations and training coming up, and it’s looking to be a busy August! Especially with the kiddos starting school in a couple weeks too (plus soccer, and gymnastics, and jujitsu 😅). A couple weeks ago I moved my desk back over to this window and am glad I did. It’s much nicer to “work” in a space I can stare distractedly out the window from. 😂 ★ HASHTAGS //    #EliseKova #ADanceWithTheFaePrince #ADealWithTheElfKing #ADuelWithTheVampireLord #ADWTVLARCTour #MarriedToMagic #BOMMTours #BOMMIndieAuthors #BOMMARCTour #BookOfMatchesMedia #bookstagram #currentlyreading #desksofinstagram #bookaesthetic #toberead #librariesofinstagram #desksetup #deskdecor #fantasyromance #romantasy https://www.instagram.com/p/CgvDJp5PIg4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💬 What was your last 5-star read? 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘥. 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘯𝘰 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘢 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘺𝘦𝘳. Well, it appears I've found myself a new auto-buy author! I haven't been able to read fantasy in months... I started this one and was shocked to see I couldn't put it down! This is easily one of my favorite reads so far this year. This story had everything I love: adventure, quirky banter, and a slow-burn relationship that I was 100% on board with! I truly loved everything about this story, and Elise's writing style was such an added bonus. There isn't a single thing I would change about this story. Though this cover is what first caught my eye, the story is just as gorgeous. "Cinderella meets The Cruel Prince" is the perfect way to describe this story. If you're at all intrigued by my review (albeit vague, totally on purpose), please do yourself a favor and read this one! This is book 2 in the Married to Magic series, but all books in the series can be read as standalones. You can find the purchase link in my bio! Thank you to @elise.kova & @bookofmatchesmedia for gifting me this copy! . . . h a s h t a g s : #lilbookrec #lilbookreview #EliseKova #ADanceWithTheFaePrince #ADealWithTheElfKing #MarriedToMagic #BOMMTours #BOMMIndieAuthors #BOMMARCTour #bookstagram #bookphotography #bookblogger #bookreview #reviewers #lovebeige #bookaholic #thecreative #mycozyretreat #livethelittlethings #gorgeouscovers #bookreviewersofinstagram #goodreads #betweencozymoments #booktography #hyggebookstyle #thepursuitofcosiness #readandchill (at Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSxa-VhnP9U/?utm_medium=tumblr

“This world is dark and the night is unyielding; the least we can do is fill it with sweet, forbidden dreams.” - A Duel with the Vampire Lord . . 🌟QOTD: do you have a favorite vampire? . . 🎉 HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO @elise.kova AND A DUEL WITH THE VAMPIRE LORD!! . I absolutely LOVED this book!! Its no secret that I am a sucker for Elise's married to magic series!! Each story in the series is a stand alone but based in the same world. This one truly felt like its own world though. Especially since the vampires are so far removed from the rest of Midscape, you really didn't need to know anything about the world or its magic to understand it or fall in love with it! This book had all the best things including enemies to lovers, slow burn, vampires and of course magic and curses!

★ What is everyone reading this week? I am starting my relisten of House of Earth and Blood in a bit, reading a few episodes of Lore Olympus before bed every night, and reading the eARC of Wicked Beauty! Once I finish the latter I am diving right into my eARC or @elise.kova’s A Hunt of Shadows, which releases March 1st! I’ve been dying to start it. I read the first book A Trial of Sorcerers last month and it was so good, an instant five stars from me and one of the best I’ve read in awhile! Slow burn romance, a high-stakes competition between magic wielders, swords and sorcery. Just *chef’s kiss* and the first book is on Kindle Unlimited if you want to dive in now! Preorder A Hunt of Shadows: https://elisekova.com/a-hunt-of-shadows/ Check the comments for the description of A Hunt of Shadows! Thanks @elise.kova and @bookofmatchesmedia for having me on rhe ARC tour. ❤️ ★ HASHTAGS //     #EliseKova #AirAwakens #ATrialOfSorcerers #AHuntOfShadows #AHuntOfShadowsARCTour #BOMMTours #BOMMIndieAuthors #BOMMARCTour #booktography #kindleunlimited #bookstagram #booknerd #booksofig #bookaholic #bookhoarder #booklover #bookstagrammer #bookcommunity #bookaddict #booksbooksbooks #bookstack #bookphotography #shelfie #fantasybooks #bücherwurm #bücherliebe https://www.instagram.com/p/CZz_0YVPEmJ/?utm_medium=tumblr

“I spent my whole life at the whim of others, waiting to see what they’ll do to me next; I’m not waiting anymore.” - A Dance with the Fae Prince . . 🌟QOTD: what color would you want your faery wings to be? . . HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO @elise.kova AND A DANCE WITH THE FAE PRINCE!! Oh my gosh friends I am soooooo excited that this beauty is officially out in the world!! While this book is based in the same world as A Deal with the Elf King, it’s completely its own story and can be read on its own! This book does start out a bit slower but when it picks up ohhhh WOW!! I absolutely loved the adventure our main character Katria goes on throughout this story. From page 1 I immediately was drawn to her character and really enjoyed the Cinderella connections!! Like the first book, the biggest downside for me is I NEED more of these characters!! I am so reluctant to let all these new amazing characters go but hopefully they will make an appearance in book 3!! I cannot recommend this book (and series) enough!! You can find a purchase link in my bio and I’ll also have it in my stories!! Plus this title is available on Kindle Unlimited!!! Have a great day friends!! . . #courtofreading - reading spot #dragonsandbooks21 - Haku: character you admire #disneyladsaug21 - Shang: secret identities . . #EliseKova #ADanceWithTheFaePrince #ADealWithTheElfKing #MarriedToMagic #BOMMTours #BOMMIndieAuthors #BOMMARCTour #indieauthor #booktography #bookhoarder #booknook #yabookstagram #readersgonnaread #toberead #allthebooks #readinggoals #booksaremagic #bookblogging #bookstagramfeatures #yafantasy #shelfie #bookporn #booksarelife #rainbowbookshelf #cosplay #bookcosplay https://www.instagram.com/p/CSwevLSL5AV/?utm_medium=tumblr

★ Fae, mer, elf, or vampire?    Happy Book Birthday @elise.kova!  The wait is over and A Dance with the Fae Prince is finally here! I read an ARC a few weeks ago, and it’s definitely in my top reads of the year. I loved everything about the story and was swept away.    I loved the elements of Cinderella, as well as Psyche and Eros, and how they were woven into the story. It was so well done! You can expect a wicked stepmother, a hand sold in marriage, a manor house on the edge of the forbidden wood, a mysterious new husband, and the wild fae your parents always warned you about.    Fans of romance (like me!), will rejoice too! A Dance with the Fae Prince has a swoony, slow burn romance that totally pays off with some steamy scenes that I think will delight fans of upper YA and adult romance alike.     What I really love about the Married to Magic world, is that Elise Kova has taken the contemporary romance model of standalone novels with a HEA, and has given that model a fantasy makeover. Like we see in many contemporary romance series, the world may be the same, the characters may crossover, but each novel itself is its own standalone story, and that’s what we have here. It’s *so* refreshing to see in a genre that sees most fantasy romances have stories spanning trilogies or longer. I really hope Elise is at the forefront of a new trend here!    I will include the description in the comments, and there is a link in my bio! Thank you to Elise and @bookofmatchesmedia for the chance to read A Dance with the Fae Prince early!    ★ CURRENTLY //  🎧 Priest by Sierra Simone (reread!)  📖 Eternal Sin by Ariana Nash    ★ TOUR TAGS //

“She was the one in charge of her own destiny; and, now that she knew this feeling, Eira would never let anyone take it from her again.” - A Trial of Sorcerers . . 🌟QOTD: you’ve entered a magical competition, based on your battery percentage what element do you control? 100%-75%: Wind 💨 75%-50%: Water 🌊 50%-25%: Fire 🔥 25%-0%: Earth 🪨 . . ✨Happiest of release days to @elise.kova and A Trial of Sorcerers!! I absolutely loved this book!! Being back in the Air Awakens world was so wonderful!! But even if you haven’t read Elise’s previous series you can start new with this one. There are some previous characters that make an appearance but the story line is new!! The story starts a bit on the slower side but it picks up fast and then doesn’t stop until the end!! Eira’s journey and growth in this book was one of my favorite parts!! She starts off as this timid young woman always in her brother’s shadow and becomes soooo much more!! I got a huge frozen vibe while reading this book and if you read it for yourself you’ll find out why!! If you’re a fan of elemental magic, fierce competition, and a brilliant cast of characters then this is the book for you!! My full review is on goodreads (link in my bio) so be sure to check that out!! I hope everyone has a great day!! . . #tumblesoverbooks - Lucie: hopelessly romantic #Darklibrariansread - Wyvern: favorite cover design style . . #EliseKova #AirAwakens #ATrialOfSorcerers #BOMMTours #BOMMIndieAuthors #BOMMARCTour #bookcosplay #bookblog #unitedbookstagram #bookpics #instagramreads #fantasybooks #readersofinsta #vscoreads #bookster #yalovin #readreadread #ireadya #bookaddicted #totalbooknerd #idratherbereading #bookrecs #readeveryday #rainbowbookshelf https://www.instagram.com/p/CMAHqRSgnN6/?igshid=3rv3ccqehb08
