\nAfter centuries of sleep, the gods are warring again\u2026<\/b><\/p>\n
All eighteen-year-old Iris Winnow wants to do is hold her family together. With a brother on the frontline forced to fight on behalf of the Gods now missing from the frontline and a mother drowning her sorrows, Iris\u2019s best bet is winning the columnist promotion at the Oath Gazette.<\/p>\n
But when Iris\u2019s letters to her brother fall into the wrong hands \u2013 that of the handsome but cold Roman Kitt, her rival at the paper \u2013 an unlikely magical connection forms.<\/p>\n
Expelled into the middle of a mystical war, magical typewriters in tow, can their bond withstand the fight for the fate of mankind and, most importantly, love?<\/p>\n
An epic enemies-to-lovers fantasy novel filled with hope and heartbreak, and the unparalleled power of love.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Finalllllllyyyyyy I am out of my book slump! I\u2019ve seen this cover around and seen the glowing reviews, but it\u2019s classified as YA which tends to not draw me in anymore so I\u2019d held off on giving it too much attention. But then one day, in the middle of a months-long book slump, I wanted something so uniquely different from anything I\u2019ve ever read. And Divine Rivals<\/em> fit the bill! First off, it doesn\u2019t feel YA at all. There\u2019s this sweeping romance that feels very mature and like it can stand the test of time. It definitely gives the historical fiction vibes I love so much, with the way the characters dress, the cars, the old money, etc. but it\u2019s set in a completely different world from ours and there\u2019s a hint of magic and a system of Gods and Goddesses that throws it into the historical fantasy genre. I took a little while to get my bearings and really feel invested, but then I quickly became obsessed and binged both books back to back.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t want to spoil anything about what initially connects our two main characters, but it\u2019s unique and magical and I loved these two together. I loved watching them navigate the twists and turns of their relationship, revelations popping up all the time. Roman is such a sweetheart, and I love how deeply he felt. I loved Iris\u2019s bravery and tenacity. Both are very talented writers, and a large chunk of this novel is pieces they\u2019ve each written. I\u2019ve never read a book like this, and I thought it was so interesting. I really enjoyed the ins and outs of the mystical war between a God and a Goddess, and the people who worshipped them by choosing a side to fight for. And yes, I mean literally fight. There is war in this book that mirrors WW2. There\u2019s soldiers and trenches and bombs, grenades, some magical weapons, death, lost and missing family\/friends, and imprisonment. Magic adds layers of complexity to it. I loved the supporting characters and the found family aspects. Iris makes two great friends, Attie and Marisol, and I loved their relationships with each other. There\u2019s a sweet little cat who makes her way safely and happily out of book 2, so fear not for her as you read!<\/p>\n
All in all, Divine Rivals<\/em> is unique and exciting. It\u2019s magical, heartwarming, heartbreaking, swoony, and it kept me biting my nails and on the edge of my seat into the wee hours of multiple mornings. The writing is absolutely beautiful. I love how Rebecca Ross crafted this story, and the words she chose. There are some powerful messages of hope, love, resiliency, and never giving up. Fair warning, this book ends on a major cliffhanger and you will absolutely want to dive right into Ruthless Vows<\/em> as soon as you finish. I\u2019m so glad I had access to it right away, as I was not expecting this and ended up throwing my reading schedule out the window to read it next! You\u2019ll find my 5-star review of that book in the coming weeks. I highly recommend both books!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
