Watercolour Smile

What a rare and pleasant surprise for a YA series book 2 was better than book 1 Some things haven t changed Seph is still the special est of special snowflakes, everybody still worships every cell in her perfect body, and the relationship dynamics are still iffy at best But now we have plenty of interesting story to balance the negatives.Liiiiiike Silas Zevgheri intrigue politics insights on the Messenger Silas, being Silas side characters like Poison, Danny, and Jayden fleshed out Scenes with S [...]

I really enjoyed the first book in this series, and I couldn t wait to read this one I liked the main characters and I was excited to see the relationships develop in the second book Sadly, that is not what happened If anything most of the relationships seemed stunted It was extremely frustrating to read Questions that you are hoping to get answers to in this book don t really get answered You are just left with questions for the most part Despite that, I was mostly enjoying this book up until [...]

Book two of a series actually didn t suck SCORE SO, I view this one as the New Moon of the series You know, when the author throws some angst in there, tries to take away the romantic lead Edward, separate the hero and heroine, the heroine Bellameets new people and spends a lot of time with them over the romantic leads, etc You know the score That happens here But we all know how it s gonna end up, so don t let the angst bother you Embrace it It s wonderfully over the top and like a soap opera I [...]

Holy shit I cannot believe that just happened When I started reading this book I was honestly trying to figure out how this would go I thought the storyline would be easy enough, typically bad guy protect the girl stuff and it sort of started that way at first, easy enough with scenes from every girl s not so serious pervy fantasy and the background plot but noooo it turned out to be a complete and utter mind fuck, especially if your half way through it ll get you utterly frustrated especially i [...]

Why do I always like the sociopaths This was the question that haunted my mind throughout the series Usually I like the reverse harem trope and I cheer for all the guys or less equally However, this time I have a major preference for one of the guys and of course it has to be the brooding mass murderer What surprised me most is that we get character growth Most of these type of books have almost no character development, especially when it comes to the female lead Once she falls in love with he [...]

After finishing this book I m almost at a loss for words Because it was everything I could have hoped for and .And also because it ripped my heart out a few times and, as if that wasn t enough, shoved it in an incinerator, sending me in a cycle of never ending pain You don t do that to someone s heart.And now I have a Silas size hole in said damaged heart, in my aching head, and in my wounded soul It s a pretty big hole in case you re wondering.Anyway.I m not gonna lie underneath the excitement [...]

My thoughts about this book are similar to those of the first book.fer to thisI believe this book was heavily focused on developing the relationships and characters and roles of the individuals thats the author had previously introduced to us I enjoyed the same writing style of the author however, I do believe this book included dark matter as well as melancholy The writing and world building was ever as confusing beforeSome of my questions were answered however I have new ones now and I am st [...]

WARNING Prepare for GIF overload Hey look there, is that a bird, is it a plane or is it yes it is, it s that damn flock of flying pigs this seriously not funny any I think I am being stalked by BaconWell where were we yes another 4 stars for a YA book, I know, I know, this is two in a row and it s starting to look like a Black Swan event and a sure sign of the end of the world, but let s not worry about that and concentrate on my review.I must admit I didn t start well, the first two chapters wa [...]

So I enjoyed book one of this series but it left a lot of questions unanswered So when this book came out I jumped at the chance to read it I m so frustrated with this book First it just goes around in circles She keeps pushing the boys away but I don t even understand why Then between Weston and her Stalker with no real answers and just confusion Nobody ever tells her anything I mSo confused Then with memory loss thing Omg Sure why don t we just start over again I m literally getting a headache [...]

Watercolor Smile picks up right where Charcoal Tears ends and behaves much like another installment of a serial instead of a separate arc of the same tale, expanding upon the things we were teased about in book 1 and revealing some bigger pieces of the puzzle surrounding the antagonizing factors of the story and how all these things are connected.It s actually kind of hard to write a review about this one without any spoilers, since the book doesn t want to reveal major plot points even in its d [...]

Great book

The sequel to Charcoal Tears is quite possibly even fantastical as Seraph grows in her confidence and strange super powers.Along for the ride are some hilarious support characters including Poison and Clarin who provide some comic relief in an otherwise intense story.Meanwhile the mysterious stalker continues to threaten Seraph s new life, and even the four guys fated as her pairs are unable to protect her.

THAT LAST CHAPTER JUST MADE ME SO SAD

Despite leaving her abusive father, and escaping her violent stalker, Seraph s life is only getting dangerous She has to hide her powers, and hide her growing connection to the four guys that would do anything to protect her.I received a free copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.First of all, let me say that this all comes down to a matter of taste The book itself is well written, and I can see why it s popular It just didn t do it for me.The premise is interesting Seraph is par [...]

Can not wait for the next book

Free copy provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.I liked the first book so much that I was both excited and wary to read this one I m not a big fan of series books, because most of them lose steam for me the further I get into them That did not happen here, and my excitement for the series actually increased with this second book Many authors drag their stories out with filler to lengthen them enough to fill several books I expected at least a little bit of filler here, but ther [...]

2 out of 5 starsI m really not sure what I just read The story felt chaotic and all over the place I was really hoping that this installment in the Seraph Black series would be better than the first That most certainly did not happen While the premise of the series is interesting, the plot and character development seem stunted Seraph is a fairly interesting leading lady with a decent back story, I just really longed for So many things happened in the book that seemed trivial By the time I reac [...]

Holy shit So much going on So many answered questions only to raise so many .So much hate for so many assholes So much betrayal So much fucking love for Silas So many revenge plots I have in my head.So many emotions right now.So much dreading the wait for number three.

Rating 3 stars

Silas Jesus

AMAZING Is it too soon for an expected release date on Lead Heart

Amazing ya Cliff hanger ending tho Cant wait for the next installment

Excuse me as I pen a letter full of feels intended for the cruel author of this here novel.

I take back what I said in my review of the first book And Ima go edit that booger to include that I was wrong I can admit when I m wrong, I m a big girl like that This is NOT AN ACADEMY RIP OFF I repeat NOT AN ACADEMY RIP OFF This series is leaps and bounds different and infinitely better The plot is WOW Sooooo much thought out and intricate The twists, the turns YASSS GOOD STUFF Seraph is a strong heroine without being obnoxious about it The guys are so unique and I love them all The side cha [...]

It would seem that life and its warped sense of humor isn t finished with Seraph yet, aren t surviving stalkers, murders and bonding enough to dish out to any teen The messenger isn t finished with her, and he is back with wicked poetry, threats and worse, as Seraph s life continues to be ground up and pulverized like yesterday s bad fish The boys are there, but something has happened, as if they have been brainwashed not to believe in her, but why and by whom Just when she needs all of the prot [...]

Even if I closed my eyes and pretended it was you, it d be like a cocaine addict shooting up with water Super weird analogy, Cabe interjected.You re still keeping secrets Jane I think you re worse than the Adairs I ve reread that scene at the cove multiple times now I even tried looking in between the lines Then I finished the book and had to go straight back to read it again I don t know why I m so hung up on that scene, it s not the most known pivotal event in Watercolour Smile But fuck I have [...]

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.When I read Jane Washington s books, as soon as I sit down and start reading, I immediately get sucked into the world she is writing about, which is a great feeling I really, really loved this book, even though a few times certain things happened to rip my heart into shreds and just feel horrible for Seph Which admittedly, I liked, because it made for a better story I really loved the secondary characters Poison and Clarin, we get t [...]

4 Stars What an unexpected surprise this book was It s been so long since I read the first book in this series that I almost forgot it existed But alas book two is finally out And it was AWESOME Thumbs UPI love reverse harem books there aren t enough of them in the world Seraph and all her guys make for addictive reading, and I m loving the dynamics that are happening between them all There were so many unexpected surprises throughout this story My mind was spinning at all the things going on I [...]

I bought the last 2 on sale thinking oh I liked this seriesy to realize I had loved it but this love hurts.Have you ever read a series or book that grabs you by the mind, eyes and throat and hurts your heart Because this one is one for me Somehow, in order to live a normal life I dampened the first book in my memory This one brought it all back This series gets dark and in depth on how the pairs are trying to cope with having Seph need space and how Seph is coping with 4 very dominant males in [...]

I m so excited for this book, I m having trouble containing myself.Edit Okay, I promised Jane a review when she oh so graciously gave me a copy back in February The problem This book makes me feel so much You know those really killer ones that bring out those emotions even your grandmother s funeral didn t Or maybe I was just a heartless 10 year old I had to put it down The book addict who will stay up until four AM to finish a book had to PUT IT DOWN.Let me start by saying I m about half way th [...]
