Another case of a gorgeous cover but bad story.
🌨️
I thought that Ernshaw's debut, The Wicked Deep, was middling. I liked it, but I didn't like lots of other aspects. Such as, it was so romance-y. Which isn't what I like in my books. Some romance is totally fine and I do enjoy it, but I can't handle plots that hinge around plots, the romance makes up all the plot, and the characters are only important because of romance.
🌨️
And this is the book where that happens.
🌨️
The plot is... well I read most of the book and I still don't really know what the story was about. There was something about a kid going missing and dying, but it was pretty insignificant. It was mainly about two teens who fall "in love" with each other and they don't know a thing about each other. There's some sort of fantasy, but, again, it's never really explained because it's all about these characters trying to say they're in love but not in love.
🌨️
It got on my nerves and I can't read that kind of book. I was so excited for a spooky, winter read but I couldn't force myself to read the rest of it. 🌨️

Cold weather is the best time to listen to audiobooks. And these three (although they're physical copies) are my favorites to listen to anytime!
🎧
I'm a huge Shakespeare nerd, so I love listening to plays. But my favorite is Richard III. Not the most popular one, but it's beautifully crafted and a lot of fun to listen to.
🎧
Then, there's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. I've never actually read a physical copy, but that's because of the footnotes. I gave up and then decided to try the audiobook. Perfect way to do it!
🎧
Lastly, there's American Gods. Not only is it my favorite book but it's also my favorite audiobook. Full cast and amazingly done! 🎧
