Series Review: The Suitable 'Verse by R. Cooper

Greetings and welcome to Reviews That Burn: Series Reviews, part of Books That Burn. Series Reviews discuss at least three books in a series and cover the overarching themes and development of the story across several books. Full Audio Here Powerful noble families known as the beat-of-fours, answerable only to a ruler and the mysterious, godlike fae, scheme and squabble amongst themselves, and go to war for the chance to put one of their own on the throne. But the fae might be pulling more strings than the nobles realize and they definitely have their favorites. A series of love stories loosely centered around the political crisis that led to the current ruler, featuring oblivious librarians, crafty though loving kings, an innocent half-fae noble, a legendary outlaw turned conqueror, worried warriors, clever guards, and an infamous beauty.

Clear Your Shit: Elves! (Mini Boss Battle #2: Speed Reading)

I close my current book, lost in thought when suddenly, elves are storming our camp! This feels familiar... I get the feeling we've dealt with them before. I rush to Heather's side, clutching my pack of books to my chest. The elves are smirking at us like they know something we don't, which, they might. They eye our book packs and suddenly each has a book in hand. They all gracefully fall to the ground in perfect synchronicity, a book in each lap. The leader, or what I assume is the leader by the obnoxious amount of trinkets in their hair, pulls out an hourglass and challenges us to a speed reading contest. Really? Is it that easy? They say they will leave us again (again?) and not cause us any more trouble. I grab the next book out of my bag, The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North, and question Heather with a glance. She is already falling to the ground with her own book, so I follow her example. As soon as the elf leader turns the hourglass we all dive into our books.
