Firstly, thanks to Destiny at Howling Libraries for letting me join in!
If you’re not familiar with the Try a Chapter tag, it’s a tag common on booktube (and sometimes blogs) where the participant reads the first chapter of five books and chooses one of those books to read, based on the results!
These are a few books from my Spring reading list so I want to know which I should read first!
- I Dare You by Shantel Tessier
- Cole by Tijan
- Darkest before Dawn by Amelia Hutchins
- Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levenseller
- The Fever King by Victoria Lee
My thoughts on the first chapters of…
I Dare You by Shantel Tessier
The prologue got me with these words…’I’m not a religious person. But I do know this. When I am damned to hell, it’ll be because I earned it.’
The reason I bought this book is because it was dark. And that line just drew me in.
Cole by Tijan
I got this book as a freebie from the authors newsletter so hadn’t really read the blurb even until now!
Chapter 1 and I am already haunted by this woman’s loss…and I want more!
Darkest before Dawn by Amelia Hutchins
OMG this was so good. This was the set up for the whole series, a virus hits humans and wipes a load out….and this is one survivors tale (and I feel romance!)
Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levenseller
I have fallen in love with Rasmira in the first chapter! I need to see where this goes! Feels like 1 chapter wasn’t enough!
The Fever King by Victoria Lee
Well colour me purple, this book has got hold of me with the first chapter!
This is so hard. Like really hard. I’m not sure if I can even choose! This was so easy last month!
And the winner is….
THE FEVER KING BY VICTORIA LEE
I have a confession though…..I’m already 15% into it as I couldn’t put it down!!!!
haha I love this it’s so creative!

The hard part is actually stopping after a chapter….something I cant seem to do on all books!

I love seeing your take on this! The Fever King sounds so good and I’m hoping to read it soon, too. Also, this:
“When I am damned to hell, it’ll be because I earned it”
literally IMMEDIATELY made me add I Dare You to my TBR! 😂

I love a dark read. Sometimes I read something that’s just so wrong and I wonder what’s wrong with me!!!
