My favorite genre lately. I’d personally add a few more stories to my list, but overall it’s a great selection of authors and stories.

Amazing chapter, amazing story. I was laughing so hard during the family dinner scene - feeling the tension right along with Dan and Rami… wondering if that chair would survive 😂. But by the end of it, I had tears in my eyes. There was so much love, acceptance, and a beautiful sense of normality.

Oh, you’ve brought out a classic - from a queen herself. The real question is... when is @Mrsgnomie going to deliver a new story?!

Vince and Jack are becoming wolfs...hm, who would say... I thought they are going to be claimed by Theo first.

Grandpater the politician and grandson the demon, destroying legal documents as if it were a child’s game - a match from hell! Charlie wants to study philosophy too… hehe, Hartley’s home is about to become the Scuola di Atene!

Yes, seems that Ben had to remind us (and himself) what he is (was)...

Ben - from hunter to avenger!

Wow, you’re truly a master of storytelling. The way Dan gradually took over every part of Rami's life and space made me feel suffocated as well. Still, it’s great to finally see a forty-year-old “baby bear” ready to learn and grow.

Oh. My. God!!! Natasha is worse than I thought. A woman who uses the f-word in a sentence more than all the adjectives, nouns, and verbs combined is asking her son, “Where did you learn that word?!” I might be surprised by her profanity, but I’m even more surprised that Martin ever chose to marry her!

Avus?! 😁

You could have easily split this chapter into three or four parts - it would make for a faster read and a “longer” story. Nevertheless, amazing characters and a great plot, as always!

You weren’t wrong - because in a way, it did… just not the “lovers” closer!

We don’t really know who Ben is - but the real issue is that it seems Ben doesn’t know either, even though he’s convinced he does. Some of his discoveries might end up surprising him. The dynamic between Ben and Kieran is incredibly intriguing. In creating him, Ben may have wanted a mirror - but now I wonder if he actually created a The Picture of Dorian Gray. Does Kieran’s dehumanization go hand in hand with Ben’s humanization? And does leaving Rylie mean Kieran is cutting ties with his humanity, while Ben, unwillingly taking Rylie, begins searching for his own, beneath the mask of a monster?

Oh...the 'abomination' - the ugliest word in English language!

How different would this audience look if Ben brought Kieran to meet his parents? Cold, distant, reserved - a cold-blooded performance. Julian would probably die of boredom! 😁

Oh my… I’m one of the people who got completely fooled 😄 you’re good - really good! At the start, though, I was thinking, “wait… why is only one groom buying a suit? what a selfish jerk!” 😂

Nah, he’s more the old, perverted voyeur type! 😂

I’ll borrow the words of another GA author, CasualW - Magnificent and terrifying! I finished Book 1 late last night - well, more accurately, early this morning. I simply couldn’t put it down. It’s wonderful, dark, bizarre, and deeply unsettling. Violent... in the way it gets under your skin. It disturbs you, but in a way that wakes you up and makes you think. In its own way, it IS a love story - just not the one we might have expected. I’m especially struck by the difference in dynamics between Riley and Ben compared to Kieran and Ben, and by who Ben becomes with each of them. (Ben has never talked so much as he does with Riley! 😁) Riley is such a beautiful soul. This book makes it clear why he’s the “heart” of the story - not because he’s emotional, but because he’s human. While the others try to bury their humanity, seeing it as a weakness, Riley wears his openly. A beautiful character - pure in all his imperfection.

So, we can expect Taylor’s big comeback.

I agree. After Book 1, Tyler’s role gradually fades, and now he’s basically gone. And you’re right- more or less, all he ended up doing was making tea and supporting his boyfriend in whatever he had going on with Charlie. To be honest, I still think Book 1 is the best. I really miss the high school adventures of Taine and Charlie. Book 2 was probably the funniest one, but after that, we are stuck in demon bureaucracy. 😁

Oh, I'm sure they're going to put more than the homo in eroticism... Not just Ali - all of them! 😉

Still too early to draw conclusions, or even make predictions, but Ali seems to be playing his role and wearing his mask perfectly. He didn’t come to Lawrence’s room by accident.

For a long time, this hasn’t been just a simple triangle. Tyler is legally married to Taine; Lynix is legally married to Pip; and Simon is basically shared between Pip and Lynix and legally married to Matt (as confirmed in a previous book). Charlie is Taine’s pet, but also a Sovereign Revenant. Charlie and Taine co-parent and regularly have sex, yet Tyler is still, somehow, considered Taine’s soulmate - and both Taine and Pip are very supportive of Charlie and Taine. And all of this is happening while Taine’s ex is still around as a ghost… even if not visible. Did I miss something...?!?

Yeah, this is an even bigger emotional mess than the pink demon dust in book 2. 🤪
