📚 “I will not leave him in peace. I will not let him forget.”

👍 A beautiful girl, a brilliant mind, and the games played by Kings. This book takes a hard look at the power a woman wields while thinking herself a chess piece. The heartache is something to yearn for, because in yearning we truly live. We want most what we cannot have and that drives our story to its inevitable conclusion, because history is written by the victors.

Rebel Witch is the sequel to Heartless Hunter. It follows Gideon Sharpe, a witch hunter, and Rune Winters, a witch. This book follows the dramatic end of Heartless Hunter to show how Gideon and Rune are dealing with each other's betrayal and the loss of a loved one.

I started this book on Friday, and I'm currently at 45% . I love how this book shows the complex feelings of Gideon and Rune and their struggle to not show their lingering feelings to each other.

Historical fiction, murder mystery

👍 This book was so damn GOOD. So haunting, so real, and as a person with sisters, I felt the underlying theme of female familial bonds. I loved the historical note at the end!

👎 Thus, my only complaint was at the end. I understand that this was also a romance, but I think the end was missing that extra special punch to the feels. I needed an on-page sister heart-to-heart.

Whenever someone talks about “democratizing” something (journalism, encyclopedia, fucking writing itself) they’re almost always taking an anti-democratic stance. Wonder how Musk and RFK Jr.—guys with no expertise in _anything_—became so powerful? Just look at the contempt the Wikipedians and François Chollets of the world have for actual experts and how these reactionary attitudes are easily adopted by those on the “left” #books #BooksToRead #BookReview #BookCommunity #BookLover #BooksAndAuthors
