Buddy Review| The Assassin’s Blade – Sarah J Maas

Published on by The Book Dutchesses4 Comments

Tomorrow is release day for Kingdom of Ash, the final installment of Throne of Glass! This blog wouldn’t even be here without this series, so it’s something special to us. All week this week we will have some type of ToG related post come online.

In April we decided to start our reread of this series and read The Assassin’s Blade. We posted our review at the end of the month, but that’s when we decided we wanted to do a theme week in October. So we are once again posting the same review to kick off release week of the last book in this amazing series!

Buddy Review | Two Dark Reigns – Kendare Blake

Published on by The Book Dutchesses1 Comment

One of the first buddyreviews we did on this channel was for One Dark Throne, the sequel to Three Dark Crowns. We both love this series so it’s no surprise we were looking forward to the third book in the series, Two Dark Reigns ever since. Unfortunately we had some problems with our preorders so it took a while before we got to it. But now we’ve both read this wonderful YA fantasy and want to tell you all about it today! There will be some minor spoilers for the first two books, simply because we wouldn’t be able to say anything about it otherwise. So if you haven’t read the previous books, you might want to stay clear of this review. Continue reading “Buddy Review | Two Dark Reigns – Kendare Blake” →

We both loved the book Follow Me Back and have been patiently waiting for the sequel. Tell Me No Lies was released this month and we both got our hands on it as fast as we could! The first book ended with a cliffhanger, so we definitely needed to know what was going to happen. If you want to know what we thought of Tell Me No Lies, take a look! Warning: This review can contain some spoilers about Follow Me Back.

Buddy Review | The Assassin’s Blade – Sarah J Maas

Published on by The Book DutchessesLeave a comment

After it was announced that the last installment of this book will be called Kingdom of Ash we both decided we missed the world and wanted to read these books again. It’s kind of funny when you think about the fact that we met thorough a readalong of this series, haha. Every month we are going to review one book. It gives us just enough time to read them all before Kingdom of Ash is released. Be warned there will be spoilers in these reviews. So if you haven’t read this series yet, you may not want to read our review! We are starting with The Assassin’s Blade!

Not too long ago an author approached us and asked if we would like to read and review her novella. It was a southern gothic retelling of Alice and Wonderland. This sounded really interesting, so we definitely said yes! It’s always really flattering when an author approaches us like this. Today we are here with our review of Take Your Medicine.

Buddy Review| The Beauty of Darkness – Mary E. Pearson

Published on by thebookdutchessesLeave a comment

We reviewed The Heart of Betrayal not too long ago, so we decided the last book needed to be read soon after that. After having quite a lot of time between the first two books, it’s easy to forget things. This is the last book and we didn’t want that to happen again.
