The pacing is electric; you’ll find yourself tearing through the chapters. And let me tell you, every chapter ends with a plot twist that left me on the edge of my seat, practically shouting, “What’s next?!”

 I love a character that just goes with her gut even though the gut maybe wrong and could lead her into very dangerous situations 👀 and I love her little sidekick and I love her friendships and soon to be relationships 👀 it was an amazing read literally kept me at the edge of my seat , definitely recommend.

This was a total “just one more page” kind of book for me. And if this is just book one? I’m already clearing my calendar for book 2.

 I’m usually the type to throw a book away if it doesn’t captivate me within the first few pages, but let me tell you, Lira had me on the edge of my seat the entire time!

This book is fast, funny, and full of the kind of banter that makes you cackle with delight, full of a gaggle of colorful side characters! And book two adds a nice romantic element, which this girl is NOT complaining about 🤣 I’m only sorta mad at myself for reading this in a single day and not savoring it more, but that’s what the reread is for, am I right?



—Chasing Nightmares, Goodreads Review

Artboard 1

The Lira Somers universe is one of my favorite universes to transport myself to!! It feels like a big warm hug, but also keeps you on your toes all at once. It honestly feels like watching Gilmore Girls with all of the three dimensional side characters and imperfectly wonderful FMC.
