First things first: Please note, that the relationship in this book is kind of toxic and shouldn't be seen as a normal relationship narrative. This book contains trigger warnings, one can find in the book itself.
So Tik Tok made me buy it and I wasn't disappointed. Twisted Love is one of those books, you can't stop reading. Drama, secrets, hot main characters... To be honest best friend's sister - one could say enemies - to lovers is that kind of plot Ana Huang writes best. And damn, the main love interests background history is way to sad and cruel to be not romanticized. A romance of a lifetime.

Wildfire

Wildfire is definitely one of my personal highlights of the year.
After we flew over the ice with the protagonists in "Icebreaker" and were able to follow their fast-paced love story, we now get to go to summer camp with the shy Russ and the extroverted Rory. There they both spend their summer as counselors to take a break from Maple Hills and their personal demons. It's just silly that they both spent a night together shortly before, which didn't exactly end positively. ..

Wildfire is full of humor and emotion, but also angst, as the protagonists try to abide by the "no staff fraternising" rule while supporting each other in dealing with their daddy issues. Rory and Russ' interactions with each other are just sweet, and the secondary characters at camp, as well as those we know from Maple Hills, add an enormous feel-good factor. Even if wildfire is not the expected sports romance, the story is definitely worthwhile because it gets by without any third act drama and contains very little miscommunication.
All in all, wildfire is a sugary sweet, humorous love story, perfect for fall.

Collide

Summer Preston has to write her final thesis on ice hockey, of all things, and is confronted with the arrogant but irresistible team captain Aiden Crawford - a challenge that leaves neither of them able to give up.

"Collide" shines with authentic protagonists who breathe life into the story and captivate the reader from the very first page. Summer Preston is an ambitious young woman who, despite her dislike of ice hockey players, is forced to take a close look at the sport. Her development and how she overcomes her prejudices is inspiring and shows her strong will and determination to achieve her goals.

Aiden Crawford, the charismatic and self-confident captain of the ice hockey team, brings a refreshing dynamic to the story with his "golden retriever" attitude. Despite his initial arrogance, it's hard not to fall for him. He not only wins Summer's heart, also the reader's with his charm and friendliness.

The interactions between Summer and Aiden are characterized by the Grumpy x Sunshine and Haters to Lovers tropes. These contrasts provide plenty of tension and humorous moments. The slow rapprochement between the two characters, which develops over the course of their time together, is particularly successful. Summer succumbs to Aiden's charm over time, which underlines the authenticity of their relationship.

One minor criticism is that the scientific component, which is originally the main reason for their collaboration, is somewhat neglected. More insight into the research and testing could have added more depth to the tensions and the development of their relationship.

Overall, "Collide" is a sweet story without the typical third act drama. If you love hockey romances, you will definitely get your money's worth with this book. The perfect balance of romance, humor and authentic character development makes "Collide" a recommended reading experience.

A Touch of Darkness

Hot, Hotter - Trash. But trash of the good kind. A Touch of Darkness is a very entertaining book, even if it's not perfect. Scarlett St. Clair wraps parts of Greek mythology into a modern world, where "mortals" live on earth together with gods, and also how celebrities are celebrated. An absolutely thrilling book, in which the events are just overflowing, a forbidden romance that couldn't be spicyer bundled in a world in which the gods have never ceased to exist. Even if the mythology in the story deserves more depth and the structure of the story was not always fully comprehensible, the book is still worth reading. Because the author baiting with the overlapping experiences and makes her readers addicted to more. In the end, I devoured the first volume within a day and was left thinking: what the underworld was that for an exciting, dark and seductive story!?

Such Charming Liars

Finally it´s here, the new book by Karen McManus. This one is also a stand alone book and you don´t need to read her other books. As ever her writing style catches you right from the start and you can´t put the book down until you have finished it. Her books are also the best for the hot summer days, because her stories are not too hard to read (even for non-native speakers) and her characters are always interesting. This book is no exception.

Twisted Games

First things first: Please note, that the relationship in this book shouldn't be seen as a normal relationship narrative. This book contains trigger warnings, one can find in the book itself.
So Ana Huang continues her twisted series and "twisted games" is just as good as the first book. Follwing Bridget and her bodygard through lifechanging events got me hooked. The right mix between drama, smut and characters we've already met in the first book (one could read "twisted games" on it's own too). The perfect book for a long evening and a glass of wine. If I'm being honest, my wanna be princess dreams had some influence, to read this book in just one awesome reading session.

Dungeons and Drama

Finally, a YA book with Dungeons & Dragons! The moment I saw this book, I had to get it. As a D&D player myself it was a must have. And it was so fun to read! The banter, the D&D group of the protagonists and the fake dating and truly falling in love was on point. It´s a short read but a fun one. For everyone who loves rom-coms and who wants to fall into the D&D rabbit hole.

Lightfall: The Girl & the Galdurian

This is an artistically and colorfully illustrated children's graphic novel set in a fantastical world where the sun disappeared a long time ago and the land is now only illuminated by several huge artificial balls of light.
I'm especially fond of Beatrice ('The Girl') who fights her constant anxiety attacks by taking deep breaths. Her worry is depicted by black swirls surrounding her which I believe is a very apt depiction of the condition.

The God and the Gumiho

I liked this book a lot more than Sophie Kims other book. Her writing improved a lot and both characters are fun to read, and the story is entertaining. The story takes place in the 1990th and Kim Hani and Seokga are the typical enemies to lovers but both have a lot of pride, so the fights are funny to read, because both want to be better than the other.
This book is for Korea fans and for fans of good urban fantasy.

The Ickabog; .

Written during the first Corona lock-down and with the many children in mind who had to stay home, J.K. Rowling first published this story chapter by chapter online. Ickabog is told in the style of a very traditionally fairytale At first glance with all the elements needed: a weak and vain king, his two unscrupulous advisers, some heroic children and of course a bog monster. Beyond that, J.K. Rowling once again addresses, as in all her books, pressing issues such as corruption, greed, cowardice and even the power of fake news. It is all well-packaged in a beautifully designed book with illustrations done by children from all over the world. Ickabog will appeal most to children aged 7 to 12 years.

Ollie/Oli Board Book

Scheiß Buch darüber muss ich in Französisch eine Präsentation halten aber ich kann dass nicht.
Buch ist Inhaltlich viel zu Schwer und herausfordernd.Außerdem ist das Buch scheiße und zu lang.
