🦇🌙 PARANORMAL ROMANCE: QUANDO O AMOR DESAFIA AS LEIS DA NATUREZA… 🖤

Quem nunca sonhou com um vampiro misterioso, um lobisomem protetor ou um amor capaz de sobreviver à própria morte? 👀🥀

Se cresceste a suspirar pelo Edward Cullen, a discutir se eras Team Edward ou Team Jacob, ou a desejar descobrir que existia um mundo sobrenatural escondido entre nós… então este género é para ti! 🐺🧛🏻

O Paranormal Romance leva-nos para universos onde a magia é real, as criaturas sobrenaturais existem e apaixonar-se pode ser tão perigoso quanto irresistível.

Aqui encontramos vampiros que carregam séculos de solidão, lobisomens ligados pelo destino, bruxas poderosas, fantasmas apaixonados e seres imortais dispostos a desafiar todas as regras por amor.

E não, nem todos estes romances são sombrios! Alguns são divertidos, outros emocionantes, outros bastante picantes e há aqueles que nos deixam completamente obcecadas. 🤭

Entre maldições, almas gémeas, amores proibidos e ligações sobrenaturais, existe um universo inteiro por descobrir.

P.S.: Vale a pena esclarecer que utilizei MMC e FMC apenas como exemplos! As dinâmicas podem ser invertidas, envolver dois MMC, duas FMC ou outras combinações. Afinal, as histórias não têm de seguir um único padrão! 🖤

💌 Agora contem-me:

🦇 Eram Team Edward ou Team Jacob?

🌙 Preferiam apaixonar-se por um vampiro, um lobisomem, uma bruxa ou um demónio?

🥀 Qual foi o Paranormal Romance que vos conquistou?

Porque, às vezes, o amor da nossa vida pode ter presas, viver há séculos ou transformar-se durante a lua cheia. E nós? Continuamos a apaixonar-nos na mesma. 🖤

Ribaltiamo un po’ il trend…

Conoscete qualcuno di questi libri? Voi quali mettereste?

#bookstagramitalia #books #review #reader #5books

Storie che a leggere solo una volta, non assapori davvero…
Dico solo che uno di questo l’ho letto 4 volte (🫪)

Classici e non intramontabili, da leggere almeno una volta nella vita

Libri e storie che voglio recuperare quanto prima

Per i motivi più disparati, dal non piacere alla crudezza…non li rileggerei, ma è stato un viaggio farlo la prima volta

So I know I’m late to the game, but I’m a fan of the All Souls series and I’m currently reading The Black Bird Oracle by @debharkness
🐦‍⬛ When I just read this in Chapter 4, my jaw dropped! I know these are fictional characters, but I’m shooketh. I feel like I’ve been gaslit. Plot twist mic drop!

I am a scaredy cat, literally, I jump and screech at the slightest thing. Unfortunately for my husband who is very light-footed, this means he regularly gets whacked by me for ‘sneaking’ up on me or as he calls it ‘walking around my own goddamned house’. Potato, Potahto.

Anyway, if you’re looking for a book with a spooky season vibe that won’t have you sleeping with the lights on for a month. Like me. I’ve got you!

These are some fantastic books I’ve read in the last few years that have monsters, witches, vampires, demons, stalkers, dark magic, and I threw in some dinosaurs, you know, for good measure.

So, you too can enjoy spooky season, even if you’re scared of absolutely everything like me.

Rok vydání ČR: 2015 (2025 toto nové vydání)

PROČ: Kvalitní a tradiční fantasy s propracovaným dějem, světem a postavami! Všechny 3 díly jsem hodnotila 5⭐️ a naprosto to miluji. JEDNA Z NEJLEPŠÍCH SÉRIÍ, KTEROU JSEM KDY ČETLA! 📚💙✨🙏

Recenze bez spoilerů ⬇️:

TOTO (a Anna ze Zeleného domu 😅) JE MÉ NEJVĚTŠÍ KNIŽNÍ DOPORUČENÍ LETOŠKA! 📚💙✨🙏

Pokud máte rádi kvalitní fantasy, musíte si tuto sérii přečíst! Má doopravdy vše - skvělou zápletku, děj, hlavní i vedlejší postavy, akčnost, romantiku, nečekané zvraty, napětí. A CO VÍC, za mě má vzestupnou tendenci a tento díl byl snad nejlepší! Rozhodně nejakčnější. 📖💙✨🙏

Čarodějnice Diana Bishopová a upír Matthew Clairmont, se vracejí v čase z alžbětinského Londýna zpět do naší současnosti. Diana je těhotná a o to víc odhodlaná bránit se proti těm, kteří chtějí ukrást a zneužít tajemství objevené čarodějnicemi v dávných dobách a ukryté v tajemném Ashmoleově svazku. Než se však Dianě a Matthewovi podaří odhalit obsah tajného rukopisu alias Knihy života, musí uhájit i svůj zakázaný vztah.

I když se hlavní trilogie tímto dílem uzavřela, jsem strašně moc ráda, že mám před sebou i další díly, do kterých se brzy pustím. 4. díl je o Marcusovi, i jeho minulosti, ale 5. díl je opět o Dianě a Matthewovi, a tam nás čeká budoucnost, nový příběh a zápletky. 📚💙✨🙏

OTÁZKY K DISKUZI: Co Vy a tato série - četli jste, líbila se Vám, nebo se teprve chystáte? Je tu někdo, kdo má přečtených všech 5 dílů? Jak se Vám líbily? A seriál jste viděli? Doporučili byste mi nějakou další fantasy sérii, která je skvělá, ale málo se o ní mluví? 📚💙✨🙏

“The cards open the doors to new possibilities and provide fresh solutions to old problems.” — Deborah Harkness, The Black Bird Oracle

The biggest thank you to my friends over at @delreybooks for sending me a free Black Bird Oracle Deck! ✨

This deck is a recreation of the 17th century deck that plays a pivotal role in The Black Bird Oracle, the fifth novel in the All Souls series. Let me tell you, this deck is STUNNING! The illustrations are so detailed and just gorgeous. I chose to show you only The Raven Queen because I couldn’t spoil all the beauty this deck holds.

The All Souls series starts with A Discovery of Witches, one of my favorite books of all time that came to me when I needed an escape the most. I love these characters and this world of magic so dearly and I can’t wait to use this deck to provide me some new perspectives.

QOTD: have you ever had your cards read? 👀 My friends and I do readings for each other every New Year’s Eve to help us make sense of the year behind us and set intentions for the year ahead.

Fridays are for the witches, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 🧙🏻‍♀️

Thank you to @debharkness for inspiring this stack - A Discovery of Witches is one of my all time favorite reads (the whole series is actually).

We have a girls trip to the bookstore planned for this weekend and it’s been absolutely beautiful here ☀️🍁 so feeling grateful and excited. ☺️

Happy Friday, friends!

💭Any fun weekend plans?
