7/6/2023 0 Comments Instinct by sherrilyn kenyon![]() At times it feels like it follows on almost immediately from Illusion, at times it feels like some time has passed. I’m not sure entirely where this fits in. That monster of the week was someone I had not even thought of. And this entire book is essentially done with Caleb absent due to the monster of the week. But Caleb’s family is, at best, complicated. While Illusion helps the readers understand Kody and her parentage and family, Instinct deals as best as it can with Calebs. I know that was an unusual start, I needed to get it out of my system. Nick and Xev have one of the best relationships in the series. Fuzzy Boots., of course, Xev hates the name. Though there is something truly musing about seeing Xev as an Egyptian Mau nicknamed Mr. Oh and I’m so pleased with how we’ve met Aeron, I knew of him but not his story. ![]() Xev is tortured by that moment and we see it, I want to see more of it because there is trauma there that needs to understood. I love Caleb I do but his inability to listen to Xev’s side of the Liliana disaster makes me want to cry, slap him and then say ‘what would Liliana say to you now’. “To give you an inkling, Gautier, I was the only ancient god born who could kill a Chthonian.”, look he is terrifying powerful and I adore him. A whole lot of the support cast in CoN are heartbreaking but there is something else about Xevikan that is just something else. The quote: You were kind to me and I don’t believe in repaying kindness with cruelty. ![]()
