The Break-Up Retreat by Camilla Sten was a thriller filled with insidious tension

The off-putting vibes of the setting were incredibly well done. I found myself tense whenever Isobel was out in the isolated, woodsy outdoors at the clinic on her own, with a constant sense of being watched that I could practically feel myself.

Isle of Wrath by Claire Contreras is a promising start to a new romantasy series.

Isle of Wrath by Claire Contreras is a promising start to a new romantasy series that had me intrigued by the city of Lunaris and the greater world beyond it, very early on.

Green and Deadly Things by Jenn Lyons was the kind of epic fantasy the author has created in the past.

One unexpectedly pleasant surprise I found with this book was the horror-esque vibes that it contained. Events that take place very early in the book are painted quite horrifically, and it really leant a dark vibe to the book that I had not expected going into the book, which really worked for it and drew me in to the setting.
