oh btw is the love interest's name spelt Ewan is the seven year slip? In which case it's pronounced 'you-en'. It's a scottish name, anglicised from the scottish gaelic Eòghann ☺️ loved this vlog as always✨

omg thank you! I needed someone who sees that Powerless ain't it! The stakes are below inexistent... Her being an Ordinary has no impact on anything. She should be in danger but she never is. And she's naive and bland. Also Kai is such a golden retriever 90% of the time and does nothing besides flirting with Pae. Does he even exist if she's not around? Enforcer who? Enforcer what?🙄

powerless also didn’t work for me! honestly the idea of it was so interesting but it reads a little Y/A for me. and i’m over love triangles. But i understand why people loved it! omg i didn’t realize its so similar to the serpents of whatever whatever until you said it! i didn’t read the sequel bc i really didn’t like the first one so if anybody wants to spoil it for me it would be very appreciated

☕🌂❤ I absolutely loved a tempest of tea. It's a crime that the next book isn't out already but I shall excitedly wait patiently 😌 Imma make a prediction : the wolf is Matteo! Matteo at the beginning of the book : _every good love story starts with a bullet to the heart_ The book : literally ends with a bullet to the heart I just finished a 5⭐ read actually. Like right when this video uploaded. Spellbreaker by Charlie Holmberg. Book one of a duology and reading flew by so fast. I didnt even realise it. It was that good! Also random question : Do your cats not chew on your nails?

I feel like powerless had a great concept to it. The plot would have been better if it came through a more experienced author though. Like you said, I ended up liking Kai better than paedyn as she didn’t have enough character to her. The story felt unfinished and confusing in so many parts of it and I felt disappointed. Over all, I would give it 3.5 stars, maybe even a 4 considering I want to read reckless. Overall though, this was a fantastic video 💗💖🍵
