A Legend of Golden Shadows

“Reading was a way to escape the troubles of today and step into a world where I could be someone else for a bit. Romance was my guilty pleasure though, and although I hated to admit it, I often found myself in the adult section more often these days.”

“it’s hard for you to show some vulnerability and this could be a sign of weakness, but it’s not. If anything, it’s a sign of how incredibly strong you are. How you’ve been through hell and back, but you never give your demons the time of day when you’re awake, so their only opportunity to attack you is at night.”

“The orchestra played notes that I could practically feel in my bones and the music flowed through my veins and straight to my heart, which beat to the rhythm of the song.“

“If I could get lost in one place and choose to never be found again, I think it would be in his eyes.”

“I tried not to feel jealous of Stella, especially since she was just a kid and I had no control over that aspect of my life. It still hurt though, to see her loved and cared for by a mother who simply adored her. I would kill for that, to have someone to call Mom. Someone to guide me in life and be a permanent friend.”

True Rating: 3.5

I went into this book with no expectations, or I tried to at least. I’d seen advertisements from the author herself on tiktok and wanted to give it a go! I believe she’s an indie artist and self published, but please correct me if i’m wrong! With that being said, wow. Now, is it the greatest book i’ve ever read? No. But did it mess with my emotions and have me invested?. Yes, and how dare you Victoria! I definitely caught myself smiling COUNTLESS times at this book, and even had my nose tingling from almost crying. (and that’s rare might i add). I can thoroughly say i enjoyed reading this book. Rhia isn’t my favorite female mc, but she definitely has plenty of like-able and relatable attributes. I read a review that said Bennett never apologized properly?? But like did you miss a whole chapter. I’ve seen characters do worse and still come back from that. Honestly, I would have killed to get more Miles action and maybe even some romance between Rhia and him, but I think their friendship was strictly platonic. At least for he first book. But come on… a little friendly brother love triangle never hurt no one! #tvd #delena The plot twist wasn’t anything crazy, but I can say I didn’t really expect it. If I am being honest, there were multiple small plot twists around every corner. And then to leave us on a cliffhanger? Jail!!!

First of all, this book is amazing!! Second of all; why did it have to end on a cliffhanger? Why didn't somebody warn me that the second book isn't out yet?! 

This book was really amazing. I love all of it. This book was so captivating, it was as if I was transferred into the book. The plot twists was amazing. Miles, Amica and Rhia's friendship is the best. I really didn't think what Bennet did was forgivable, but the apology was amazing and so heartfelt. He really grew on me as I read.Everything was just perfect. I laughed out loud and even cried whilst reading the book. I don't know what to say, I don't think I can justify how good this book is. 

I can't believe the book ended like that, now I can't wait for the next book.
