   Academia in Fiction (106) No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.   ) msmattoon | Aug 24, 2023 |  ) Melanie_Knight | Dec 20, 2022 | I felt the first part was stronger than the second. It embodied the gothic romance spirit perfectly.And I almost felt like Dahlia Lamottes book "The Dark stranger" would have been a lot of fun to read. The second part only felt like it plodded along. Callie was remarkably slow to figure out who was visiting her in the night. Yet she accepts the claims of her colleagues and neighbours being You would have thought with the kind of research she had done for her book she would have gotten a clue a long time before. I started reading this book expecting another [bc:A Discovery of Witches|8667848|A Discovery of Witches (All Souls Trilogy, #1)|Deborah Harkness|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1322168805s/8667848.jpg|13190160] both feature main characters who writes thesis and have degrees. But I actually liked the main character of TDL more than the one in ADoW.Even for the less perfect things in her. Didnt really see the point of the boyfriend Paul.He could have been written out entirely for all the impact he had on the plot. It was like he was only there for Callie to feel bad about her betraying his trust in her by being intimate with the incubus. All in all this book was a decent read...but it could have been excellent if the author had kept up the great start of it. (  ) Litrvixen | Jun 23, 2022 | I enjoyed this book very much. Given that "the demon lover" in question is an incubus, there was understandably lots of hot sex, but that wasn't all there was. The inhabitants of the town of Fairwick and the college itself were varied and interesting in their own right. I enjoyed getting to know all of them. I thought the story could have been streamlined a bit, but that didn't take away any of my enjoyment. As this is the first book in a trilogy, I'm looking forward to reading the next book. If you're looking for a dark gothic paranormal story, you definitely need to check this one out. 5/5 stars. *** I would like to thank NetGalley, Random House Publishing Group, Ballantine Books, and Juliet Dark for the opportunity to read and review this book. (  ) jwitt33 | Jun 21, 2022 | This is my 3rd time reading this series, and for me it just never gets old. It's got a real Harry Potter vibe, only for adults, with romance and some erotica. But I love the story even outside of the romance and that's why this series is so amazing. Its witches, vampires, fairies, incubuses, succubuses, and even a fairy queen. The first time I read it I didn't know who the villain was for sure. It really kept you guessing. I had a bit of an inkling but that was for a few of the different characters. So its definitely not predictable. And the break up in the story has got to be the easiest, drama-free break up that I have ever read about. All three times now that I have read this book one thing stays the same. Fairwick feels like a fairyland. Especially around Christmas time, it feels like a winter wonderland. I am truly transported to a whole other world every time I read this book. If I could live anywhere, I would want to live there. Honeysuckle House sounds amazing and just as magical, makes me want to find my own Victorian-style house, especially one with a name. There are a lot of other books referenced here, especially popular romance and vampire books. But you also get to learn about other folklore which I find highly fascinating. As for the romance in the book itself. I love it. Its everything a good romance should be. I like the points made about it as well. Such as how maybe some people can't find satisfaction in relationships because of the fairytale romance we read about in books. I don't know how true this might be for others, but for me in my life, I don't find this true at all. But still an interesting thought. I will finish my reread of the series and will again, probably multiple times, through the years. I'm surprised at the lower rating that this book has, but oh well and to each there own I suppose. I think it fantastic and will continue to recommend it to romance, fantasy, and paranormal lovers. How I choose my rating: 1* Hated it. I had to force myself to finish it. 2** Didn't really like it. I didn't hate it but not sure why I finished it other than for some closure. 3*** I liked it. I had some issues with it, but as a whole it was good. I probably won't reread ever, but there is a chance I might finish the series. (If part of one) But if not it's not a huge loss. 4**** I really liked this book. Maybe not a work of genius, but highly entertaining. I might reread this, and I will finish the series. (If part of one) I would recommend to those I know hold interest in this book's content. 5***** I loved this book. I found little to no issues with it at all. I will definitely be rereading this and probably more than once. I will finish the series and reread it multiple times. (If part of one) I will recommend this book to EVERYONE!!!!

Dark's letter-perfect gothic style is a satisfying tribute to previous gothic novels, and the paranormal elements, including incubi, fae, vampires, and witches, make this a stellar romance." .

His lips, pearly wet, parted and he blew into my mouth. My lungs expanded beneath his weight. When I exhaled he sucked my breath in and his weight turned from cold marble into warm living flesh.
