This, was SO GOOD.

How could I describe it? Bridgerton meets Ghost Whisperer plus we get to meet Death? YES, A MILLION TIMES YES. GIVE IT TO ME.

I'm so glad I decided to pick up this book. I got in only because of the Death premise but let me tell you, I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery, the crime solving, EVERYTHING.

Also, perfectly themed to be read in October, which made it 10x times better.

The writing? On point. Quote after, quote. I have a million tabs on this book that range from the love heart warming scenes to the best wake up moments.

Plus, for a YA book? IT WASN'T FADE TO BLACK. It was obviously done with the utmost care, and as if it was seen from the perspective of a woman in that timeframe. And it was beautiful, let me tell you.

I don't know what else you want me to say for you to consider picking up the book. Just do it, you won't regret it.

2025 update: 4⭐

Now that the Maas fever has subsided in me I can safely say, yup I was right, and I should have given this 4*. I don't even think I want to give it the .5 🙄

My relationship with this book is one of contented hatred. I got it spoiled and tbh it didn't measure up to the first book. Crescent City #1 will always be my favorite book of Sarah, and honestly, I decided to reread it so I could finally finish the series and do so remembering whatever the hell happened.

So now let me wait three months until I pick up the third book, bc the slump is slumping and this ain't gonna help 😂

OG Review: 5⭐

I didn't want to give it 5*, it was 4.5* rounded to 4* until page 740.

I got this book so spoiled, SO SPOILED, I hated looking at it, I dreaded finishing it, I just couldn't.

Throne of Glass is my favorite saga of Sarah but Crescent City made it's way to my Top 5 with book one, and I was so excited for book two that when I got spoiled all that was going to happen, I just raged.

So I'm here to tell you that those 60 pages I had left, were worth it. Worth it because a hope I had been harbouring after I read ToG has become a reality, and I just sobbed my way through that part 🤷🏼‍♀️

I also kind of expected more about the book...? It felt like reading AKOFAF in some way, though not as badly because at least this time I kind of remember what has happened before the apocalyptic finale. But yeah, it's felt like all the good things were reserved for those last 60 pages.

Dont mind my rant here, I might change the ranking on this book when I reread it come CC3. But regardless, it's a good book that I really enjoyed and I'd really recommend you reading if you love Sarah's work ☺️

2.75⭐
not to be negative, i never intend to be, but why does this always happen to me?

i hate when reels catch my attention and then the book doesn't live up to the expectations

oh god, did i enjoy this 😩

i've been hooked, can't lie, i read through three quarters of the book in less than three days, it's been a while since that happened

it's just that life happened and i dont know why i hit a block and the ending didn't hit as good as i wanted it to, but don't ask me why, i'm in a weird funk so i blame that

i can't express how much i loved jack and how much i despised how the cartwright sisters felt so wrongly aged. i still can't believe kat is 31 or any of the sisters are in their 20's and act as if they were teens

but that aside, miss dawes i will need a book for each and every one of the sisters and just so everyone knows, lila dawes is a new autobuy author for me, keep em coming 💸💸

4.25⭐

i am still in shock about the ending 😐 i need to regroup my thoughts before i give a review so stay tuned 🫡

update, it's been a week and i'm still thinking about that ending 🫠

i think i've fallen in love with meg's horromance scify writting and i can't get enough.

give me all the stories, i don't care how weird they are, i am here for it

must be the toxic in me but i can't blame kit for thinking hot damn, i want the broken bot, because i'd be that girl too 😂 this felt like a nightmare, but in the best way possible? i was so lost at times but then i also knew exactly where i was?

this story is an experience and the only thing i can do is recommend you read it and experience it for yourself 🫡

thank you meg for providing the arc before it published, i am so grateful 🫶🏻

as always, my opinions are my own but don't let them deter you from reading the story if you want to!

a ver, aqui una nunca lee en español asi que a lo mejor me meto donde no me llaman 😂

me ha gustado el libro? obviamente, sino no le estaria dando 4⭐🙄

creo que la mejor frase que puede describirlo es "del amor al odio hay un paso" o para que le quede mas a pelo, "del odio al amor hay un paso" 😂

el angst de este libro? por las nubes, no podria haber sido mejor

eso si, aqui empiezan los peros 😅 he terminado un poco cansada de la falta de comunicación entre los protas (y lo que no son protas porque vaya tela, les venia de familia eh?) 🙄

evitarlo una vez? vale, dos? bueno, tres? macho que teneis 25 tacos *inserte eyeroll*

a pesar de eso, me ha gustado mucho como ha atado la leyenda nahkoia con la historia de ellos dos, un detalle precioso 🫶🏼

y ya lo que si me ha matado, y cuando digo matado es MATADO, que practicamente me he pasado todo el libro traduciendo al ingles todas y cada una de las conversaciones 🥲 entiendo la ambientación y de donde salen las expresiones de la autora porque son muy reconocibles en la literatura inglesa/americana, pero creo que esperaba algo un poco mas castellano-correcto, no se (lo dicho, apenas leo en español no sabria decir si es algo normal en los libros de hoy día 🥲)

eso si, catch me leyendo el siguiente libro porque tate? 👀 tate y su insufrible empeño por conseguir a mackenzie? si, lo necesito en vena, gracias 😂

así que aqui estaremos para el próximo 💅🏼

I really needed a meet cute, and this one was perfect 🫶🏻

If you are a romance girlie, and I mean romance in the purest form of the word, this is for you. No shmutty little scenes here, everything just happens when it needs to, and you know what? I missed sweet romances like this 🫶🏻

Even though I kind of guessed why the third act breakup would happen quite early on, I was still on the edge of my seat waiting for it to happen.

Margot and Oliver are the cutest and they are so respectful with each other, I can't. They had me giggling with each of their interactions 🙈

Thank you NetGalley for the chance to read this early!

As always, my opinions are my own and they don't need to align with yours, so give the book a chance if the blurb catches your attention 🤗
