Escapism this is not.

I listened to the first book on audio. This copy is an ebook. I am not sure about the spelling of the names. This is making it hard to understand. I was going to borrow the Witch King ebook, but that list is weeks long. Power through or go on a long list? Ideas?

I just finished the book. I have mixed feelings about it. The ending was satisfying, but the delivery was so dry and matter of fact. I am not sure if that was supposed to be a reflection of the Obin, who were not the storytellers. I am going tonsit with this for a bit. 💙📚 🧵

BTW Hades Town, the musical, is a fun adaptation of Orpheus' story.

This is very dry. Gretchen sounds like a bored university professor presenting a lecture. I like the plot.
It does make me yearn to read a Tanya Huff novel.

"Oh my God," I said. "Stop with the movie." 😂
As a Canadian who has had our history mined by the USA for movies, I agree.

I didn't like Sofie as a person. I was not sure she would grow, but she finally did a little. The twists were good and unexpected. Cooper and Sofie as an item? Ew.

Lake Nolan is such a good character. I remember reading my grandmother's, then my mother's books.
The evolution of the romance genre is real. Without authors similar to Lake, that evolution would not have happened.

It has a simple on dimensional storyline that delivers on the tie-ins to the original movies. Leto still can not act. The other actors were too good for this movie. 4/10⭐️

I am enjoying Jamie's story. It is nice that it is being expanded on. Adding in the details surrounding WW2 is a nice touch.
