Joyce A,
I was distraught over the huge plot twist。 I was invested in the relationship between Layala and Thayne in the 1st two books and loved their relationship。 I couldn't finish this book because I jumped to the end when I started seeing the writing on the wall。 Maybe in time I can pick this book up again when I've forgotten what happened in the 1st two books and just look at it like two different story lines。。。。。。 I was distraught over the huge plot twist。 I was invested in the relationship between Layala and Thayne in the 1st two books and loved their relationship。 I couldn't finish this book because I jumped to the end when I started seeing the writing on the wall。 Maybe in time I can pick this book up again when I've forgotten what happened in the 1st two books and just look at it like two different story lines。。。。。。 。。。more

The ending makes me wonder what will happen next and if there's going to be another transition (like the elf to goddess)。 I especially like how Val is our most powerful main character and the fact she has magic swords/daggers is beautiful。 The last chunk of the book we do miss out on some side characters that have been there from the start like Tif。 But there are some additions of new characters that will make the rest of the series entertaining。 The villain love interest is done beautifully!"The dead don't talk" "Neither do the living。 That's why they're dead。" 。。。more

Sara White,
Just as I thought, I knew where this book was headed that cliffhanger at the end of book 2 left my mouth gaping。 Was so excited to be able to get an ARC copy。 By far this is the best Book in this series, it had me canceling dinner plans, calling out from Work, because I just could not stop reading! This story is beautiful, captivating and had my heart in a vice the entire time。 Hel, Thane and Layala go through SO much and I find myself rooting for Hel。 Always liked a bad boy。 Go get your copy!

Layala is as stubborn as always throughout this book。 Some may call it a flaw, but I feel that her trait of being stubborn is an important aspect of the story and makes her so much more relatable to the reader。 If we thought we knew our dear Laya before, we were very mistaken。 We learn more about Laya as she learns these things about herself which spans throughout the entire book。 Her character growth is the most beautiful of any in this series。 She was a badass elf before, but as she comes into her own she is even MORE badass!Fate Calls the Elf Queen is the best of the three currently released books。 It had me on the edge of my seat, it made me scared for our beloved characters, it made me cry, laugh, and more than anything else it made my heart hurt - in the best way possible。 This is such a sweet slow burn with all the pining, hid behind hate, hurt, and mistrust。 It was everything I wanted and more。 I must admit, I'm a Hel girly now! 🥵 。。。more

Yes, be prepared for cliffhangers!! So good, highly recommend this series。

JM Kearl has become one of my absolute favorite authors。 I don’t know how but this is the best book of the series and there’s still more。There was so much mystery and somehow she wrapped up so much so quickly towards the last 20% while creating more mysteries for the next book!

This book was everything!! Pining love, love triangle, the perfect amount of flirty banter, lots of sexual tension, discovered magic, world exploring, but most of all it just kept me wanting more! This whole series has had so many twists and turns that I never expected that have kept me on my toes and interested to see where it would go。 It has not disappointed me at all! More than excited for the last book to see how it all ends!

Holy crap!!! I have been eagerly waiting for this story since I finished book 2! But I was not expecting the heart break I had to go through! There is so much that happens in this amazing story, and that ending 🤯

Fate Calls the Elf Queen is just as amazing as the first 2 in the series! I love how well the banter is written!! Between Laya being a smart ass, Hel bring a cocky tool, and War being super stubborn- I can’t decide who is my favorite。 They’re all my best friend at this point and I can’t imagine life without them。 I laugh out loud and sobbed horribly throughout this entire book。 I was given this book as an ARC (thank you sooo much!!) for an honest review。
