4 stars — This book was equal parts 5++++ stars and 3 stars. So I averaged at 4 (though sometimes I think it’s more 4.5 rounded down). I found myself skimming ahead at some of the parts where I was sure misunderstandings were abounding (though ironically it wasn’t what I thought in one particular instance), cause […]
4.5 stars — Well, to say this book surprised me would be an understatement. I did *NOT* like Sean for the first little bit of the book. I mean, I wasn’t supposed to, but I know some readers enjoy jerks more than others…I tend to have little patience for them. And Sean was a D […]
4.5 stars — This review is going to be a bit all over the place…it happens sometimes, and sometimes it’s just too hard to wrangle my brain in order, so I leave it. Abby delighted me. She was wonderfully quirky and odd. I wish this story had been dual POV, but I suppose I can […]
OVERALL: 4 stars — Huh, this was actually a really solid anthology. Pretty great Christmas vibes (some more than others), solid romances, lots of variety. Obviously I enjoyed some more than others, but there wasn’t one I didn’t connect with at least a little, which is kind of rare for anthologies! JUST THE TIP by […]
4 stars — I’m in a weird reading funk, so I won’t count out that that affected this review. But once I finally gathered my lady bits and just sunk into the book, I was captivated and curious. Part of that was getting to return to a place that I already love filled with people […]
3.5 stars — I might not have been in the right mood to start this one. Raquel kind of left me a bit lost with who she was. She was hung up a lot on how quirky she was, and hiding her quirkiness, and I’m sure we’ll find out more in the main novel, but […]
3.5 stars — There were so many things I truly enjoyed about this story, but also a few things that were a bit meh. I actually genuinely liked both Eilish and Bryan on the whole. They were characters that had both made mistakes or rather were living with the consequences of their decisions. The problem is […]
4.5 stars — Well phew. I’ve only read book 1 in this series, and it just didn’t work for me personally. In fact, I started to listen to the audiobook for a reread to see if my tastes changed, and I only got to chapter 2 before realizing I still wasn’t enjoying myself. But I […]
4.5 stars — This book made me LAUGH AND LAUGH AND LAUGH out loud in so many places. I seriously just love this Winston extended family, they absolutely DELIGHT me. But it also made me ACHE so much in my heart, b/c there’s so much pain and misunderstandings and mistakes and tragedy between Billy and Scarlet. […]
4.5 stars — I’m having a hard time getting my thoughts together and out of my head, this book just shook me like that. I didn’t bawl in like I was expecting to…and I think all the warnings and such made me wary of this book, so my reading of it was very drawn out. But […]
