What's Up, Readers!!

Welcome to Quills and Pages and today I will be reviewing Divine Infection Book 1 in the Bloodborne Melodies Series written by Nova B. Quinn. I am very honored that I was chosen to read the advanced reader copy of the book. So, let's start the review.

BLURB

"Do you trust me?"
Danica Gray thought she had met the love of her life, until she caught him doing something unforgivable. Left without answers for two years after his disappearance, she was left heartbroken and numb. Then, he reappears, very much alive. But things are not as they seem. Something’s different about him. Something dark and twisted. As their reunion unfolds, ominous events begin to occur. Fortunately, the lead singer of a metal band she met only hours earlier steps in to save the day. Secrets run deep, and only the surface has been scratched. We are led down a path of sex, blood, and rock ‘n’ roll, culminating in a bloody encore. Enjoy the show! Mind your step around the body parts and blood before exiting the concert.

MY REVIEW
First of all, thank you to Nova B. Quinn for providing me with the arc copy. I was very intrigued by the love triangle aspect. I started reading the book. It was a great start and then it got a bit slow and then it got better towards the end.....it got feral towards the end 😅

The story starts with Danica and Oliver. An accident happened, and Oliver disappeared. It's been three years, and Danica is in depression and barely living. No is basically walking dead because of Oliver's sudden disappearance. She goes to a rock concert and meets a handsome rockstar, Chris, and BAM!!!! There is a fatal attraction between them. She denies it, and he pursues her. It was a very hot tug-of-war.

There are supernatural elements involved and things get dangerous as we proceed in the story. Although Oli was a major part of Danica's past, he doesn't appear in most of the book. There is a love triangle but this first book was actually setting up the base for Danica and Chris.

As I said earlier the book got slow in the middle because there were just Danica and Chris and Danica kept trying to refuse him was very frustrating. I got annoyed with her on one or 2 occasions but as soon as they move forward from that stage things get more dangerous and interesting. There are ruthless vampire gods, ancient prophecies, sinister elements, and some very weird situations and in the midst of all this, there is this trio; Danica, Chris, and Oliver.

On the whole, the book is a 5-star read. On some occasions, it literally gave off the vampire diaries vibe.....argh......I want to watch TVD again after reading this. But I don't have time as I have to read a lot. So, here I am ranting to get it off my mind. I hope you like the review. I highly recommend this book. Go read it. links are given below.

The Awakening | Zodiac Academy Series written by Caroline Peckham and Suzanne Valenti | A Book Review

Alright, here I am, sharing my thoughts on the first book The Awakening from Zodiac Academy series written by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti . I decided to start reviewing this series as it falls under the 'enemies to lovers ' and 'bullies romance' genres, which are right up my alley. I'm a sucker for this type of book and I am always on the hunt for such books. Someone made a video of this book on TikTok and I was like I had to read it. So, I began reading the book and I fell into a rabbit hole of Magic Academy, hot assholes, and alternative Fae world. It felt like diving into a more mature version of Harry Potter. Needless to say, I absolutely loved this first installment.

Plated Prisoner Series | A series review (Spoiler Alert!!!)

Have you ever stumbled upon a series that not only captures your imagination but also challenges the norms of classic narratives? Recently, I had the privilege of delving into the spellbinding world of the Plated Prisoner series, written by Raven Kennedy. If you haven't yet experienced this literary masterpiece, be prepared for a rollercoaster ride of intrigue, deception, and personal growth. Embark with me on a journey through the twists and turns of these books, where the conventional story of King Midas and his golden touch takes an unexpected and captivating turn. A Twist on a Classic Tale The foundation of the Plated Prisoner series rests upon the iconic figure of King Midas and his fabled golden touch.

Auren, with her genuine golden touch, becomes the linchpin of the plot as ...

Where is Molly by H.D Carlton | A Review

Where is Molly is a stand alone book written by H.D Carlton. It is set in the Universe of Haunting Adeline. The story revolves around Molly...the girl we found in Hunting Adeline. Her diary was founded by Adeline under the floor and us readers always wanted to know if she succeeded in running away from that awful place. Blurb A spinoff of the Cat & Mouse Duet... “Molly Devereaux has been missing for more than two weeks, and police are still searching for the girl who seemed to vanish out of thin air. The world still wants to know... Where's Molly?” In my dreams, I never escaped the Oregon woods. Life after death isn't easy to accept, especially when I still feel like a ghost. Now, I live deep in the mountains of Montana—the paradigm of beauty. But they are also the home of horrors. Horrors that I only unleash at night. When my pigs are allowed to feast. It is strongly recommended to read Haunting Adeline and Hunting Adeline before reading Where's Molly. Important No...

Lightlark by Alex Aster | A Book Review

A Fellow booktoker recommended me this book. She talks about it all the time and makes really catchy videos featuring this Duology. I got interested and purchased this book. Lightlark is the first book in the series written by Alex Aster. I got to know some pretty interesting facts about the Author and how this book was published. You should learn it too this is not my story to tell 😅. Anyhow I started reading this book in March and finished it one week. Somehow I got late in writing and reviewed all the books I read in March. So now I am starting again. This is the brief of this book on Goodreads; Welcome to the Centennial. Every 100 years, the island of Lightlark appears to host the Centennial, a deadly game that only the rulers of six realms are invited to play. The invitation is a summons—a call to embrace victory and ruin, baubles and blood. The Centennial offers the six rulers one final chance to break the curses that have plagued their realms for centuries. Each ruler has somet...
