So I didn't write a review for the third book, this was for two reasons. 1. I had to jump straight into the fourth and see how it was going to end. 2. Although a lot happened in that book and we found out so much more about everyone and everything I wouldn't be able to review it without spoilers.

 

And now here we are on the last book and that conclusion had me crying some serious tears. And then that epilogue was the perfect rainbow after the storm.

 

As only Kristen Ashley can do, I was lost in the world she created and I didn't want to be found. There was a lot going on here and at times I did lose track of who was who and who's point of view we were currently getting. But for the most part I was so invested I felt like I was part of it.

 

This series has been amazing, and I will be doing a reread of it in the future. But right now, I am dying to reread the fantasyland series. And I can't wait to visit the mystics. Hopefully, our queen has books planned for all the characters I have grown to love in this series, especially Jorie.

 



So, I was stupid enough to start this series at a time when I really don't have the time to binge read it. I just have a day or two between commitments and the inability to control my own impulses. Obviously, I couldn't hold off any longer to get to the second book and now I'm hating myself.

 

That cliff-hanger was brutal and I have at least four weeks before I can get to the next one. And I really need to know what happened at the end of this one and how it plays out in the next one.

 

This one kicked off straight after the first and I loved watching them all get to know each other and fall in love. But I also enjoyed watching them develop some really strong friendships with the couples. There is so much intrigue and so many characters with so many different stories and yet I am so invested in each one of them I am having no issue keeping up with them all.

 

I’m dying to dive into the next one as soon as I can find the time because this series is calling to me so hard and having it tie in so beautifully with the Fantasyland Series and having a few cameos of the couples I love from that book just adds so much more to the experience.

 

 


 The Golden Dynasty is my all-time favourite book. I re-read it when I need a book to get over a slump or just to distract from a bad day. So, when I heard that this series was set in the same world as the Fantastical series, I have been dying to read it. I knew I couldn't listen to that long an audio book, so I waited for the e-book. But Kristen Ashley is so wordy I needed to find the time to binge all four books.

 

Right now, is not that time but I couldn't hold off any longer. I could feel it calling me from my kindle while I was trying to figure out what to read next. And I caved and from the first page I couldn't put it down.

 

I saw a few reviews that said there were a lot of different points of view and it got a little complex. I was nervous because I am terrible with names and the list of characters here is huge. But all of their personalities are so strong and individual I actually didn't struggle too much keeping them all straight.

 

And the story is just too intriguing to have me be anything but madly invested in each couple’s relationship. And the part they are all going to play to stop the beast. And how each of them is going to handle their new relationship with someone vastly different.

 

Naturally, I have already got my favourites. And they each have things that make me love them that tiny bit more. But then there is a slight drama to make me nervous or another couple does something to make me love them more and I'm off with a new favourite. I really wish I could dive straight into the next book, but sadly commitments call, however as soon as I find the time it's already loaded and ready to go.
