Hello friends!
In this blog, I’m reviewing That Time I got Drunk and Yeeted a Love Potion at a Werewolf by Kimberly Lemming. As usual, the first half of the review will be spoiler-free, and more about my overall thoughts. The second half will contain spoilers, so look away if you haven’t read the book yet.
What does yeeted even mean? My mind went to a lot of different places… including sexual stuff.
I was disappointed in this book. All the elements that I loved in the first book were missing in this one.
No real fantasy element.
No grand adventure
Less humor
Wasn’t cozy
I wasn’t able to connect with the characters.
The story didn’t go in the direction that I predicted after reading the first book.
Way too insta love. At least Cin put up a little bit of a fight.
I’m over writers writing about readers. The meta thing isn’t working. I don’t want to hear about a girl getting to live out her book fetish (unless it’s Edward Cullen because I’m here for that). I’m here for the fresh and the fantastical. Tentacle Porn is not for me.
I needed more time in Brie’s life like we had with Cin and her family, especially on the food front. Brie’s cheese barely played a role.
Where book one’s length worked and felt like a full story, this one didn’t have the same substance. The fantasy part was completely forgotten in all the romancing. The only fantasy element was Felix.
Could have played up the demons' assimilation into the town.
And dare I say it… there was way too much sex.
Now look away if you don’t want spoilers.
Yes, Lemming was typing to be hilarious with the cult consisting of guys not being able to land a date (that seemed to be the theme of the whole book), but it came across as cringe. Mix in the lobster bad guy… I’m not here for it. Plus, you can’t suddenly change your mind about the goddess/witch lady being manipulated.
I can’t do good guys. I married the good guy. I want to read about the broody, bad boys.
Sophomore slump in terms of quality.
There was a double standard when it came to who was obsessed with who. Sometimes it was thought of as hot and others as creepy. There needed to be a baseline.
Happy Reading!
Love,
Kait
