This was exciting! I was thrilled when I saw this book listed as a future release since I have had some great luck with other titles written by Blake Crouch. When I looked closer, I realized this was a re-release of a book originally published in 2011. Even more surprising was the fact that I […]

This was a fun romance! I was incredibly excited to pick up this book after falling in love with Ashley Poston’s writing while reading The Dead Romantics and The Seven Year Slip. This book didn’t grab me quite like those books but I found it to be a solid romance built on a fun concept. […]

I had a great time with this book! T. Kingfisher has quickly become one of my favorite authors so I was thrilled once I got my hands on this book. This book is described as a retelling of the Brothers Grimm’s “Goose Girl”. I don’t know that story so I can’t tell you how this […]

This was great! Kelley Armstrong has become one of my favorite authors and I have been super impressed that she writes so many different genres so well. There has been some romance in some of her other books but I was thrilled to have the chance to read her first contemporary romance. I had rather […]

I enjoyed this book! I was intrigued by the fact that the story is a Mulan retelling and couldn’t wait to start reading. I had a lot of things going on in my life when I picked up this book but that is okay because it allowed me the time to savor the story. I […]

I enjoyed this book! The spice level was a lot higher than I expected and the STEM focus was less than anticipated but I liked the book for what it was. Rue and Eli first encounter each other after finding each other on an app and plan to hook up. Things don’t go as expected […]
