I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys

I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys

4 stars — This is definitely outside my normal genre to read, but I kind of loved how it allowed me to learn of some little known (in the West) history through a fictional perspective.  I’m just not as interested in non-fiction, so I loved having this opportunity to expand my horizons while still giving […]

Blood and Bonbons by Melissa Nicole

Blood and Bonbons by Melissa Nicole

4 stars — This was a fun start to a series.  I’m not entirely sure what to expect from the next few books — love triangle?  Reverse Harem?  Minimal romance, more mystery?  It’s a…*cough* mystery.  *rolls eyes* I really enjoyed Everly, and felt like I could connect with her super easily.  She was cautious, kind, […]

I’m Your Guy by Sarina Bowen

I’m Your Guy by Sarina Bowen

4 stars — There were a few aspects/moments in this story where I had my reservations, but about a gagillion others where I was just grinning and so fucking happy with the romance. It was nice to be listening to the duo of Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Morgan again as narrators.  They were my first […]

My Fake Rake by Eva Leigh

My Fake Rake by Eva Leigh

4 stars — I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this book given that the heroine initially has feelings for someone else.  And while I definitely struggled with the whole prolonged misunderstandings/lack of communication thing at the end, it was still just a really fun and adorable book. I loved how absolutely nerdy […]

Waiting for a Scot Like You by Eva Leigh

Waiting for a Scot Like You by Eva Leigh

4 stars — While I definitely enjoyed this one, there were moments where I felt like the conflict drew out too long and I was impatience for growth or change…and probably on a personal note, I had a harder time remembering the issues of the times and Beatrice’s very valid avoidance of remarrying.  Maybe because […]

Do You Take This Man by Denise Williams

Do You Take This Man by Denise Williams

4 stars — I liked this one more than I was expecting to, especially after having read a few of the lower reviews and assuming I would feel similarly…but maybe because I lowered my expectations, it reverse psychology’d me?  I don’t know, but I’ll take it. Honestly, breaking this book down, I really shouldn’t have […]

Death’s Door by April White

Death’s Door by April White

4 stars — I just love how Ms. White packs so much into her books.  I honestly feel like my favourite part is reading the Author’s Note at the end and finding out which elements were based in fact and where she took liberties to make it work in this world. I have read the […]

Pumpkin by Julie Murphy

Pumpkin by Julie Murphy

4 stars — Here’s the thing: Waylon’s a pretty realistic teenager.  In that he’s pretty wrapped up in his own head and his own life and dude is it hard to watch him not think about the other sides of things on so many situations.  It’s frustrating.  But it also makes his growth that much […]

Man in Uniform by Cassie Mae

Man in Uniform by Cassie Mae

Review for MAN IN UNIFORM by Cassie Mae only: 4 stars — This was pretty adorable, and surprisingly satisfying for being a novella instead of a full length novel!  As always, I love getting characters that are genuinely nerdy and awkward and dorky and normal. Hazel was pretty cute in a down to earth way.  […]
