It's part of a three series with three books and Tickerella is based out of Cinderella, a retelling of Cinderella. And it talks about a woman who is plus size and she's black. Oh, I love it when I get to read black romance authors and it's not intense. Basically, people have this assumption that romance written by black authors is always intense or it's very serious."

So that's something that I would definitely recommend for anybody."

There is no narrative, there's no, you know, these. There's no template writing or there it's. It's abstract and you will also try to figure out where this is going. But in spite of it being so bizarre, it still manages to take you through Maria's journey and also makes you see the perceptions that she wants to introduce you to."

So that was me reading acotar and its successors and kind of hoping I don't have to read a Sara J. Maas again because I can't. Like, obviously she was not allowed to edit the books or she didn't want to edit the books, that much is clear because she explained flames everything and no."

So this was all I could just put it about for this book."

It's the, it's like what any man in love or who has a girlfriend or who is committed is supposed to do. You're not. This is not some really high expectations that you are, you know, you're supposed to do that. It's like one of my favorite actors says, it's always the small things."

But as well as the novel mode revolves around the theme of psychosexual development and it's more like the concept of a parent being inclined towards her mother, I mean, to the opposite gender in a sexual way rather than, you know, just. Rather than just being a son or a daughter, the opposite genders attract sexually. Forget the term, what it is really called."

The plot twists are wonderfully done, and they hit you when you least expect it. There are a couple of heart wrenching scenes thrown in between for emotional depth. So, you know, bits like this actually balance out the horrific nature of the crimes in the book. And so, yeah, sum up, you have well developed characters, brilliant plot twists, and red herrings to make you go crazy."
