My immediate thought upon seeing this scene: ‘So pretty! This is going to be on fire or something by the end of the series, isn’t it...’
...we’re probably going to cry over a tree because Jinx finds the hideout and torches it, aren’t we...

🌷Books I read in May and my reviews! 🌷
The Secret History: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wonderful writing, mysterious, funny and disturbing, but in a good way. I was a bit nervous to read this as it is not my usual genre, but I loved every haunting, disturbing second of reading it.
The Priory of the Orange Tree: ⭐⭐⭐⭐. 5
Magical, royal and an unforgettable story. I was told that this book was incredibly boring, but it was only the first fifty pages that were so. The worldbuilding was beautifully detailed. Another thing I loved about the book was how strongly Samantha Shannon wrote cultures as well as religions.
Babel: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Historical, dark and thought-provoking. This book spoke a great deal on issues such as racism and collonialism. R. F Kuang's writing is absolutely phenomenal and I love how the book spoke about the struggles of being a White-passing poc as well as a non-White-passing poc.
The Pull of the Stars: ⭐⭐⭐. 5
Haunting, eerie, historical and tragic. This book was interesting especially from someone interested in medical-related-stuff. I love how the book talked about the struggles of being a nurse during a pandemic as well as how much the main character was willing to sacfirice for her work. The only thing I did not like was the lack of quotation marks.
Six Crimson Cranes: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Mystical, mythological and romantic. The book immediately hooked me from the first page with the captivating storyline, wonderful storytelling as well as interesting characters. I am so excited to read the sequel.
The Cruel Prince: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Magical, entertaining and unique. I was extremely nervous to start this series because of a bunch of negative reviews - and because I bought the whole series at the same time. But it ended up being one of my favorites. The beginning of the book was a bit slow-paced, but otherwise I loved it.
The Wicked King: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fast, enchanting and mystical. This book made me forget I was reading. The story was beautiful, immersive and full of plot-twists. The characters were written amazingly and there was almost no one whom I could hate.
The Queen of Nothing:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Immersive, twisted and romantic. The final book in this series is definitely a favorite. From the plot-twists to Jude and Cardan's relationship, everything was absolutely perfect. The ending left me both happy and sad, wanting for more.
