Illusion of Innocence (Titans of Terranea Book 2 ) by Natasha Pierce | A Review

By
Hi Readers!!!! Welcome to Quills and Pages. Today , it's review time for another amazing book:  The Illusions of Innocence . It's 2nd book of the Titans of Terranea series, written by the amazingly talented Natasha Pierce . BLURB If only her innocence could outshine the chaos and deception of our world. When this woman walked into my home, I had no clue what to expect. She was quiet; demure, even. Sweet-natured and compliant. Then he happened. The one guy I’ve competed against for years started targeting her. She sat back, taking everything he orchestrated to hurt her. Even though I’m pissed at him, I still feel drawn to him, almost like he needs me as much as I need him Then tragedy struck. Her innocence held her back, but I can slowly see the real woman underneath as she battles to stand her ground. The one with dirty dreams and intense needs. The one to match my stamina and hunger. Turns out, though, she is fated to another. One who I can’t seem to avoid; the man who quietly...

Lies Of The Wicked by B. L. Lewis || A Review

By
Hi Readers!!!! Welcome to Quills and Pages. I am reviewing B. L. Lewis's cozy witchy debut book Lies of the Wicked . It's the cozy months of the year and a perfect time to lose yourself in a good book. So let's start the review. BLURB "He’d left nothing but breath between their bodies. She tried to move, but he held her tighter. 'Stay.'” The noise in Thessa's head is loud, but her forging hammer is louder. Thessa Skiafer is a young witch and bladesmith, with a secret to keep. Living in a realm guarded by Elemental soldiers, makes this a very dangerous truth to hold. Perhaps that’s why she suffers with anxiety; she lives in a world she does not belong in. When a demon uncovers her lies, he offers her sanctuary in return for joining his rebellion. Though she’s reluctant to fight, she’s quickly captivated by his magic. After a brutal attack against him, her trust blooms alongside her feelings. Thessa learns the price of freedom, as well as love, and fighting ...

On Wings of Blood by Briar Boleyn | A Review

By
What's Up, Readers!! Welcome to Quills and Pages. I just finished On Wings of Blood arc....and now I am here to write the review. the book is written by Briar Boleyn and Thank you to Netgally and the author for this arc. iSo, let's start the review BLURB I didn't sign up for this. A half-fae in a school of highblood vampires? That's a recipe for torment. I'm Medra Pendragon—last of the dragon riders, or so they tell me. Funny thing is, there are no dragons left. Not a single one. But somehow, that hasn't stopped the vampires from deciding I'm worth capturing. Now I'm stuck at Bloodwing Academy, where the highbloods run everything and blightborn like me? We're just blood in their veins, pawns in their games. But that's not even the worst part. Enter Blake Drakharrow. Cold, arrogant, and way too gorgeous for his own good. He's been tormenting me since the moment we met, and now, thanks to some ancient ritual, we're betrothed. He acts like h...

Where is Molly by H.D Carlton | A Review

By Quills and Pages
  Where is Molly is a stand alone book written by H.D Carlton. It is set in the Universe of Haunting Adeline. The story revolves around Molly...the girl we found in Hunting Adeline. Her diary was founded by Adeline under the floor and us readers always wanted to know if she succeeded in running away from that awful place.  Blurb A spinoff of the Cat & Mouse Duet... “Molly Devereaux has been missing for more than two weeks, and police are still searching for the girl who seemed to vanish out of thin air. The world still wants to know... Where's Molly?” In my dreams, I never escaped the Oregon woods. Life after death isn't easy to accept, especially when I still feel like a ghost. Now, I live deep in the mountains of Montana—the paradigm of beauty. But they are also the home of horrors. Horrors that I only unleash at night. When my pigs are allowed to feast. It is strongly recommended to read Haunting Adeline and Hunting Adeline before reading Where's Molly. Important No...

A Critical Lens on 'Hunting Adeline' by H.D. Carlton: Exploring the Disturbing Themes | A Review

By Quills and Pages
I kept delaying writing the review because I had to remember it and didn't want to do that. This 2nd book of Cat and Mouse duet is the story of a human trafficking survivor. This book is a huge  TRIGGER WARNING . Kindly proceed with caution. I even got traumatized after reading it. So to explain the synopsis; Adeline (the main character) got kidnapped at the end of the first book and sold to some people who groomed her for some very rich and powerful clients.  Almost half of the book is based on Adeline surviving the worst situations possible for a woman. Adeline had one advantage someone was fervently searching for her, and eventually, Zade managed to rescue her after four agonizing months. The scene when Zade finds her and she just could not believe it. She crumbled to her knees thinking she was hallucinating. After Zade brings her home she struggles so hard to process her trauma. She learns to fight to take control of her life. She gets close to her mother. She hates h...

The Awakening | Zodiac Academy Series written by Caroline Peckham and Suzanne Valenti | A Book Review

By Quills and Pages
Alright, here I am, sharing my thoughts on the first book The Awakening from Zodiac Academy series written by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti . I decided to start reviewing this series as it falls under the 'enemies to lovers ' and 'bullies romance' genres, which are right up my alley. I'm a sucker for this type of book and I am always on the hunt for such books. Someone made a video of this book on TikTok and I was like I had to read it. So, I began reading the book and I fell into a rabbit hole of Magic Academy, hot assholes, and alternative Fae world. It felt like diving into a more mature version of Harry Potter. Needless to say, I absolutely loved this first installment.
