So different from the other books from the same author, but also still so great.
I enjoyed the world-building part that doesn't exist in the other books. It's skillfully done and I couldn't put the book down. Still, the plot was mainly predictable but nonetheless entertaining!
Probably my favorite from Hazelwood so far (or do I say that every time?). Cats, nature, bantering, vegan characters, feminism... How would I not relate ?
Even though, it's very predictable from the beginning, I was still surprised at some point near the end.
Loved it! Thought about "The Queen's Gambit" the whole time, of course! But it was a nice story, and I was happy to go back into the chess universe for a short while.
Impressed by how a short story can feel like a whole 300-page book. I absolutely enjoyed this story. There is less context and more psychology (or just more details of what's happening in the FMC's head) but I'm here for it!
This one ends the Loathe to Love You story and is as enjoyable as the other two. And the bonus chapters are always my favorite.
Hannah's story is more original than the others in terms of context / location and timeline too.
Cried my eyes out. I don't know why I waited that long to read this story after finishing ATYD... So glad to read more about Grant!
Okay wow!! What an awesome story. It's original and lovely and, for once, I was surprised by a real plot twist that I didn't see coming.
Oh what a joy to meet the characters again several years later! It's not often that we are able to know more about what happened after the story and this was done amazingly well, with answers to questions we didn't even ask. Loved it!
I was shocked by how short this story is but even more impressed by how complete it is. In a few pages, we have a full story with all the necessary details. The result is adorable and kind of relatable.
Another cute (and meet cute) story in Dream Harbor. I appreciate that they are all different but also linked together.
This one talked to me because I love animals and could easily imagine living Kira's life.
I think I'm into Ali Hazelwood's books because of the way she describes people personality and quirkiness. You easily relate to the characters and it makes the story more complex and real. Still a fan of the academia vibe!
That was a nice reading. I had enjoyed discovering Dream Harbour in the first book and it was really nice to see a different vision from different characters. I loved their story and the way it happened but most of all I appreciate how the male characters are written by the author.
My favourite so far from this author! Truly enjoy that there is even more academia in this one. It creates a deeper context for the romance part and reminds me how I used to love science!
First time reading a book from this author, and I enjoyed every minute of it. It's a light and cute story! I like the fact that it's taking place in a scientific and academia universe.
What a sweet story! I found this witch universe mixed with the human one interesting. The romance is adorable.
Oh how much I liked this story and the way it stresses on the feelings and the psychological side of dealing with life and relationships.
In a few words: writing a book, becoming who we want to be, getting rid of the BS, communicating...
I was thrilled to find out there is more than one book (Icebreaker) and that I could learn more about this group of friends. This found family is amazing and puts you in a good mood. I laughed out loud several times and I also enjoyed the banter throughout the story.
Very different from what I'm used to and in a good way. They are broken and they need each other to grow and heal. It's beautiful... And hot! :P
Why did I wait this long to start this book? The world-building is amazing and the plot is incredible. Can't wait to continue with the next books.
