#garbe

Garu is super affectionate in a feisty sort of way with Tobe, I’m talking like a cat

Tobe is fairly certain his ninjas aren’t aware that the “rivalry” isn’t quite what it seems anymore…

Garu and Tobe would keep their relationship hidden because it’s better than facing the uh, dire consequences…

As a couple, Garu would totally look the other way for most of Tobe’s petty crimes

Tobe can absolutely tease Garu

Garu is a bit of a lovable brat to Tobe

Garu is Tobe’s “GarBear”

Tobe is Garu’s “Tobeloved”

Tobe is Garu’s “Tobewedded”

“Tobae”

I’ll stop

Honestly I think Garu would break his vow of silence for pillow talk, he’s like a poetic type of speaker lmao

Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber

This is the first of a trilogy. Excuse me, an ⚡️amazing⚡️ trilogy. I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited for a final installation! I will review book #2 right after this, haha.

I think I enjoyed this book so much because I can relate heavily to Evangeline. She is a romantic, through and through. Although she had her heart broken, she doesn’t stop believing in true love. Jacks is the perfect anti-hero. He’s charming and witty and it’s so easy to forget that he does things for selfish reasons. The chemistry between the two of them is just *S W O O N*. It’s easy to follow but it’s still complex and it just makes my heart happy and sad at the same time. 🥀

The beginning is captivating. The explanation of the world is easy to understand- the idea of Fates, magic, curses- it is all explained perfectly. I found the idea of the curse being unspeakable to be unique and interesting. It forces you to think about what is really the truth and makes you double guess yourself! I’m so glad I read this book when the second installment came out because it ends in a cliffhanger that made me instantly start the next one!

I have done this every time but I would seriously give this book all the hearts in the world-

100/5 hearts
