Bride by Ali Hazelwood

Misery Lark, the daughter of a powerful Vampyre councilman, finds herself thrust into a precarious situation. To maintain peace between Vampyres and Weres, she must marry Lowe Moreland, the formidable Alpha of the Werewolves. Misery is wary of Lowe's authority and his watchful eyes, but she has her own hidden motives for entering this union. As she navigates life in Were territory, Misery is determined to reclaim what she values most, even if it means facing the challenges of living among her kind's ancient foes.

Ranking Details:

Our ranking system awards points to books based on their appearance and position on curated lists. Here's how it works:

Unranked Lists: For lists without specific rankings, each book receives points equivalent to the list's weight. This approach recognizes the book's inclusion on prestigious lists.

Ranked Lists: Books on ranked lists receive points in two ways:

  • Base Points: Initially, every book is awarded points equal to the list's weight, acknowledging its significance.
  • Bonus Points: Additionally, books earn bonus points based on their ranking. The total bonus pool, equal to 100% of the list's weight, is distributed among the books, with higher-ranked books receiving more points.

Exponential Distribution: The distribution of bonus points follows an exponential model. This means the top-ranked book (#1) receives significantly more bonus points than those further down the list (e.g., #100). Our algorithm ensures that higher placements are rewarded more generously, reflecting the achievement of a top rank on any given list.

This scoring system ensures that each book's ranking reflects both its presence on multiple lists and its positions within those lists, providing a comprehensive measure of its acclaim and popularity.
