I haven’t read any books in the series so didn’t get a lot of the subtext of these stories. I find these short stories stand pretty easy to follow. Probably better to read regular books first. #AngelboundTalesVolume1. #NetGalley

This volume is a collection of novellas that happen at the ends of different books in the series so it is suggested that you read the series before reading these stories. I enjoyed the stories and getting more of these characters.

This is a collection of bonus stories, so read the main books first!

Myla is your quirky teen, in a paranormal world filled with angels and demons.
Some stories are just funny and add a more mundane air and some are really additive to the story and kinda longer.
The author explains when are the stories happening compared to the main books, which is really helpful.

In conclusion, if you liked the main books and want to get a bit more, this is 100% what you need.

I liked the added stories of characters I love. I enjoyed the backstories/added information to the characters.

Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review.

great way to be introduced to Myla and her world

If you haven't experienced Myla, this would be a really good time to pop in and see a bit of what her world is like. You will have adventure, action and fun. You will laugh. You might even cry. You may possibly need to change your pants. This was fun and for me a typical jaunt down the rabbit hole of Myla's life. This was her at earlier stages of her life and more.

I do not see where you could possibly go wrong. Each little slice of Myla's life give you a different view. Come on in and see why so many like to visit her world..

Well, this story is a fantasy paranormal angels-demons high school story, set in a very interesting world-build, gladiators in purgatory, yeah it's interesting and original. Myla is a character that you either like or not, for me it was a bit of a miss, the idea was good, and the construction was in a good way but in the end, it felt flat for me. The story pot is interesting, definitely kept me reading all the different elements and characters. The audiobook narrated by the author herself had me a little bit worried, however, I really think she did a good job doing it, some of her voices were a little high pitched, but the character's main voice narrative and the other characters were done in good pacing and clear pronunciation.

Christian Bauer has gathered 5 of her bonus stories and released them in one volume because she loves us.....her dedicated fan club. These stories feature Mya and will keep us happy until CB's next book is released.

I freaking love Myla, but I confess to really loving pre-marriage Myla more. She just has more sass and definitely more interaction with her Tail who I love. I really want a drawing of Tail wearing googly eyes. (Pretty please :).)

I read Angelbound Tales like I do any other anthology. I picked the stories randomly and I read one a day. I really want more and I am so happy that this book is only the first in a series. Christina Bauer packs each story with all of the energy and charm that is Myla. These stories are quick reads that you can either space out like I did or gobble them up. Either way, Myla will take you away from your troubles while she gets in trouble.

Get ready for Five awesome short stories! I love Myla! And that tail of hers! This is a great way to introduce you to the Angel bound series. Awesome characters, great stories/plots, and a world that you will long to visit. Excellence as always! Thanks #Netgalley and#MonsterHouseBooks for the eARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are mine.

I am one of those readers who LOVE everything to do with Myla Lewis. She is quirky, funny, and is a kiss a$$ protagonist! This collection of five short stories had everything I love and did not disappoint. Two stories take place before the series began and the other three are interspersed throughout the many volumes. Because of the various locations within the series, I believe readers should NOT read this unless they have read most of the original stories. Walker’s Love Connection (before Angelbound Book One), Sharkie and Snickerdoodles (before Angelbound Book One), Wedding Bells (after Angelbound Book One), Herbie and Baby Hotdogs (after Scala), and Saving Mrs. Pomplemousse (after Acca). I hope this information helps future readers.

Short bonus stories
YA fantasy
Paranormal
Demons & purgatory

Angelbound Tales Volume One is a collection of 5 short bonus stories that have previously been released in special edition versions of the Angelbound series.

I haven’t read any Angelbound series books beforehand so all the places, characters etc were new to me. I might have gotten more out of this read if I had known at least something.

I liked Myla as a main character, she seemed strong and fierce. I also liked how her tail
had it’s own personality.

Overall quick, fun and easy read. Would have loved to read a small introduction to characters and places etc even though this was clearly ment for someone who has read the series.
