Did You Want to “Crush” Book Two of the “Crave” Series?

Female Gargoyle in a Graveyard. A Creative expression for the "Crave" Series, book two "Crush" by Tracy Wolff.

Ooookay, Curious One. I just finished Crush. Yup, book two of the Crave series by Tracy Wolff. With exhaustion, I have to say, that it really only got good in the last quarter.

When it got good, it got GOOD! 

I haven’t read the two chapters in the end from Hudson’s point of view, but by the time you get to the end of this, I will have.  I don’t want those chapters to skew my thoughts yet!

So, to get started, I was trying to find some information on Tracy Wolff.  It’s all sort of scattered between reviews and I can’t say for sure if any of it is fact from her own mouth.  It does appear that she was an English professor at one time and now might be teaching writing to local college students, but I can’t confirm that yet.  I’ll keep looking into it…

Deciphering Wolff’s “Crave”: Themes and Flaws in This Slow Burn

Grace enters a new life at a new school in Crave by Tracy Wolff

It’s been some time, Curious One. A long time since I’ve sat down and read a book… I found this series, I’m positive you’ve heard of it before, and I said to myself “use this to get back into Time for a Book!”  So, here I am, craving to get back into it!

…It’s finally time for a book…   

I genuinely thought this series was much older than it is, thinking it was started in like 2015.  However, apparently, the first novel was published in 2020… Who knew?!  It caught massive amounts of attention rapidly. Like the Twilight series, pretty much every YA reader and Fantasy readers alike had tried reading it.  Because of that, I of course did my best to stay away from it.

The Crawling Darkness – Where Your Fear Haunts You!

The Crawling Darkness

I’m so sorry, Curious One!  I couldn’t help myself!  I really wanted the next look into J.L. Bryan’s Ghost Trapper world!  I literally was itching to continue reading the series, so I went ahead and divulged.  The Crawling Darkness couldn’t have been better!  Again, like with the second book, I was skeptical on it keeping me fully entertained and not becoming a repetitive series that changes names and houses and entities, but doesn’t change anything else.

Blooms of Consequence – Passion, Fear and Hard Choices

Blooms of Consequence

Well, we made it Curious One!  The final book of the Dusk Gate Chronicles that I have, Blooms of Consequence, did not disappoint!  Whoo!  There was so much going on!  At the end of the last book, Thorns of Decision, we were left wondering what would happen with the gate.  The four of them, Thoman, Linnea, Will and Quinn were going to accompany Nathaniel to Quinn’s world to keep Linnea safe from Tolliver’s kidnapping attempts.  However, before they could cross over, there were Philothean refugees camped out all over the area, so they were left to stay in the castle.
