Bei der Neugestaltung seiner Residenz auf der Willibaldsburg über dem Altmühltal ließ der Eichstätter Fürstbischof Johann Konrad von Gemmingen (1561-1612) Anfang des 17. Jahrhunderts durch den Nürnberger Apotheker, Botaniker und Verleger Basilius Besler (1561-1629) einen prachtvollen Lustgarten anlegen. Um den Garten und seine Schätze für die Nachwelt zu bewahren, beauftragte er Besler, die Gewächse nach Jahreszeiten geordnet in Beschreibungen und Kupferstichillustrationen zu dokumentieren. Frucht dieser Arbeit war der 1613 in Nürnberg im Druck erschienene Hortus Eystettensis, ein dreibändiger Prachtkatalog mit 367 handkolorierten Pflanzenillustrationen und detaillierten botanischen Beschreibungen von insgesamt 90 Pflanzenfamilien und 340 Gattungen, nicht wenige davon exotischer Herkunft. Das in seiner Zeit einmalige Werk spiegelt nicht nur die außergewöhnliche Artenvielfalt des Eichstätter Gartens. In der ausgefeilt eleganten Darstellungsweise verrät es den neuartigen Ansatz, die Welt der Pflanzen aus ästhetischer Sicht und nicht wie zuvor allein aus praktisch-heilkundlichem Blickwinkel zu betrachten. Noch vor dem Aufkommen der modernen botanischen Taxonomie verfasst, pries Carl von Linné den Hortus Eystettensis dennoch als "unvergleichlich". Beslers Pflanzenkatalog hatte deutlich länger Bestand als der Eichstätter Garten, der im Dreißigjährigen Krieg 1643 von Schwedischen Truppen verwüstet wurde. Nach langjähriger Vorbereitung - nicht zuletzt auf Grundlage des barocken Botanik-Klassikers - konnte 1998 an historischer Stätte mit dem Eichstätter Bastionsgarten ein Nachfolgeort seine Pforten öffnen, an dem zahlreiche Gewächse aus dem Hortus Eystettensis versammelt sind. Die hochwertigen Reproduktionen dieser Faksimile-Edition nach einem Originalexemplar aus den Beständen der Universitätsbibliothek Eichstätt-Ingolstadt werden ebenso wie die auf ihnen dargestellten Gewächse in botanischer, heilkundlicher und symbolischer Perspektive fachkundig erläutert; ein Anhang mit ausführlichen Texten zur historischen Bedeutung des Gartens von Eichstätt und des ihm gewidmeten Hortus Eystettensis runden den Band ab. Die vorliegende Edition des Hortus Eystettensis (dessen äußerst rare Originaldrucke bereits im Millionenbereich gehandelt werden) dokumentiert einen Meilenstein der botanischen Wissenschaft und Illustrationskunst und macht - ganz im Geiste seines Verfassers Basilius Besler - die Schätze des Eichstätter Gartens einem größeren Publikum zugänglich.

Not gonna lie Val kind of annoyed me at the beginning but she grew on me!! Her men are chef’s kisses!!! Holt annoys me some but I can let it slide. I already bought part two so I’m going to be reading that in between work phone calls!!!! DON’T TELL MY BOSS 😂😂😂😂

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic. I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop. One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.
