I just looked it up and it does sound good! I'll have to poke around to see if I can find it to read. I was looking at my library app and didn't immediately find the title.

Have you started Ashes of Honor? I have read a couple of chapters and like it so far.

Yay Tybalt!!
It's about time Toby's got a bigger place with all those people coming in and out, and now Quentin is living with her.
Also, can't believe Etienne has a changeling daughter! That seems a little random, but interesting. It gives him more of a background. I'm a little worried that it's yet another case where a child is abducted, but we'll see what the author does to make it more interesting.

Yay Tybalt!!

I just reached the part where Etienne tells her about his abducted daughter. Hopefully, it will be different this time.
Did you know that the 15th book in the series is coming out in September?

Wow, Tobi must find Chelse before she destroys Faerie, and Raj disappeared too! I liked that some of the characters from previous books popped up here. I also loved Toby's interactions with Tybalt, Quentin, May, and the Luidaeg, to name a few. I found it cool that Tybalt called Tobi 'little fish'. He most certainly likes her!

I'm in the middle of chapter 9 (thank you for providing the spoiler alert!). The Luideag just gave Toby a way to help find Chelsea and Tybalt brought Toby into his court, where it looks like a lot of cats were injured...I'm curious to see what happened. Last time several cats died, it was because of that poisoned meat they ate. I wonder what happened this time?
By the way, the Afanc seemed sooo adorable! I hope he gets home safely!

I like her more, too. I hope she is happy. After reading her short story, I'm not sure how happy she actually is...losing your first and only love must be really hard.gali wrote: ↑30 Jun 2021, 09:34I like Luideag the more I know about her, and Afanc is adorable!hsimone wrote: ↑30 Jun 2021, 09:29 I like how it's different from the others, too!

What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

Awesome! I’m about 80% in. They’re at Dreamer’s Glass, there’s an opening to Annwn, and Riordan just walked in.gali wrote: ↑03 Jul 2021, 00:12Ok, I finished the book and loved it. Where are you in the book?
My favorite part so far? Tybalt professing his love and Toby realizing she feels the sane way!!! Yay and finally!
I really like the story too. Although, I’m not the biggest fans of all the side jokes and laughter that happens when something bad could happen. I know it’s supposed to lighten the mood and everyone is comfortable with each other and confident with each other, but it kind of takes me out of how severe things actually are.
I am curious on how the story will end though!

Riordan is just as bad as the queen! The author sure knows how to draw villains!
I wasn't bothered by the side jokes, but I get your meaning.
