Enchanting, riveting, breathtaking.

What can I say that has not yet been said? A well written and captivating mistery in a fantasy backdrop that will keep you wondering whodunit.
At one point I had tears streaming down my face and had to strengthen myself with a dram... SJM readers will know this started in the last +/- 20% of the book and it didn't relent untill shortly before the end... a wild ride. In a few days I'll start nr.2 and can't wait for nr.3.

Bryce and Danica friendship

I loved this book. I'm really picky about what I read and I didn't have any expectations, but somehow I fully immersed myself and ended up liking it way more than I thought. Don't get me wrong, it's not perfect. And I can see how others wouldn't like it, it certainly has its flaws. but I do not care. it was light hearted and it was gut wrenching at times. I loved how the relationship between danica and bryce was portrayed and how it showed how deep and important platonic friendship is, how it can be so intense it rises above romantic relationships. I love how the book portrayed loss and grief and shame and didn't shy away to show the depths of depression and suicidal idiation.
I'm excited to listen to the next one

Light it up

Das Buch hatte ich vor einigen Jahren bereits gelesen und habe das Hörbuch als Refresh als Einstieg für den zweiten Band gehört. Die Umsetzung ist super, auch wenn mir stellenweise schon zuviel gestrichen wurde. Wer jedoch weiß, wie dick das Buch ist, hat dafür sicherlich Verständnis. Ich kann das Hörbuch wirklich empfehlen.

Endlich bei Audible.de vorhanden

Zwei Jahre nach Erscheinen des amerikanischen Hörbuchs, kann man diesen Titel auch auf audible,de hören. Als ich dieses Hörbuch gelesen von Elizabeth Evans dem Support vorgeschlagen habe, wollte die Mitarbeiterin mir weiß machen, dass es doch vorhanden sei (auf Deutsch...). Nichts gegen Übersetzungen, aber das manche Audible Mitarbeiter nicht verstehen, dass es Kunden gibt, die wirklich gerne englischsprachige hören wollen...
Jedenfalls, ist Sarah J. Maas' House of Earth and Blood, Crescent City, Book 1" sehr spannend und super gelesen von Elizabeth Evans, die schon Maas' "Throne of Glass" fantastisch gelesen hat, eine klare Empfehlung für Fantasyfans. Sarah J. Maas schafft es ihre Charaktere lebendig wirken zu lassen und erzählt eine "Urban-Fantasy" Geschichte mit Krimielementen.

Through love, all is possible

First sentence: There was a wolf at the gallery door.
Last sentence: Not when things are about to get so interested.

Well … “holy fuck” might sum this up the best?! The last 200 pages got me on the edge of my seat.
I fell in love with Bryce so fast. She isn’t perfect in a long shot, but she is someone who cares deeply. Her friends are her world, losing them destroyed her. But her want for revenge was strong enough to keep her alive. Somehow. The moment she gets send on the mission to figure out what truly happened two years ago, she starts to get a spark back. Having Hunt at her side annoys her to no end at the beginning, but I have to say, it was quite entertaining to watch these two work together.
I did not see all the twists and turns coming. Sarah did quite a good job with that. I admire how all the oracles words came back into the story and how they really meant something.
“Through love, all is possible”

I am not okay with the fact that this ended

Was I a big fan of this at first? No.
Did I pull through the start and started enjoying it more and more? Absolutely.

The start felt so slow to me. Especially since it was quiet long and I feared the whole story would be lengthy and boring at times.

We're all wrong at times, right? Because I definitely was.

Once I really got into the story I was hooked. I enjoyed the modern setting of Crescent City a lot and once I got at better grip of the magic system things got easier to understand. Even though this book had it's issues with explaining the way things work as fell. A phenomenon that I encounter in many of her books.

Once the mystery really started I fell in love with the story and it get truly addicting. Hunt and Bryce lurred me into the story and trapped me there till the end. Not a single second of this was boring and I developed such a strong bond with some of the characters that I was devestated when I finished.

When the ending hit and horrible things happened I almost broke out into tears while listening to the audiobook on a public train before work - we are dramatic over here, okay?

I finished on my walk home from work and I can tell you. My throat hurt like hell from holding back tears for the entire walk.

Huge recommendation for basically everyone. This basically was fantasy, romance and mystery combined. Amazing experience.
