My New Obsession & Review of Forever Fey

I am going to add this disclaimer to start: I was not compensated for this post. I am writing it simply because I want to share something I found that I love.

If you have been reading long, you know that I am a big reader. I have a goal this year to finish 100 books (I am still on track to meet this goal, if you were wondering!) Well, a couple weeks ago, a friend posted something that looked interesting. It is a subscription website called Scribd that allows you to borrow and read as many books as you want for only $8.99 per month. Erika had said she was able to get all kinds of new release books that she had been wanting to read. The best part is that they were offering two months free! It was a deal I couldn't pass up.

I joined on June 11 and have already finished four books on Scribd. I also already have 26 books in my library, many of which were on my "to read" shelf on goodreads. I love that no matter where I go I can read. I have an app on my phone, an app on my kindle and the website I can pull up anywhere I have a computer. It also syncs between devices so I don't have to remember where I was in the book. Anyway, I can't say enough good things about this site. I love it! I keep calling it Netflix for books and it's a perfect fit for this reading junkie.

Enough about that, I thought it probably time to add a little book review or two. I have read enough books, I could at least tell you how I liked them.

The first one I want to review is Forever Fey by LP Dover. I got this one as a freebie for my kindle. I have really been into the fantasy books and this one was wonderful. It takes place in the land of fey and has some familiar characters like Queen Tatiana (Midsummer nights dream??) This book focuses on princess Calista who is from the summer court. This is the little blurb about it from goodreads:

He leans down, lips parted, and then our lips connect... We didn’t know that this one kiss has FOREVER changed the Land of the Fae.

According to the Prophecy proclaimed many years ago, Princess Calista of the Summer Court is destined to change the Land of the Fae from the evil determined to destroy it. Her powers are phenomenal, and she secretly trains for battle with her handsome warrior friend, Merrick, who unbeknownst to her protects her heart as well, in hopes of keeping it for himself. At least, until the seductive Prince Ryder attends the Guardian Ceremony and instantly sends a fire burning through her veins and a connection so deep they both discover a love above anything imaginable.

No one knows how Calista is destined to change the kingdoms, but there is one that does. He not only craves Calista’s power, but her body as well, and his goal is to steal her power, make her his Dark Queen, and take over the Land of the Fae.

Will the evil succeed in claiming Calista’s soul? Or will the two men that fight for her heart save her from despair, and help her fulfill her destiny to become what she was meant to be.

I loved this book. I love the characters and felt the author did a great job showing you every part of the story. It jumps viewpoints from the view of  Calista to Ryder and also to the "bad guy" Alistar. The transitions were pretty smooth and I didn't feel confused like I sometimes do when books do that. The ending left me ready to start the next one (this is book one of four) and I was in luck because Scribd had all three of the books available to read! I am just starting book four and I can tell you the next ones are just as good as this one. I think this is a series I might even read again. I give it a four of four star review!

What about you? Have you read any good books lately? Would you consider a service like Scribd? If you are interested, you can click on any of the links in this post to take you to the website. They are offering a two month free trial right now, so it's a perfect time to try it if you are remotely interested!
