4 stars — This book could have been a rounded up to 4.5 or even full 5 stars if it was trimmed by at least 25%. Honestly, I just got frustrated. Miscommunication is one of my least favourite tropes, but for a time I actually got it with Jacob and Briana — it made sense […]
4.5 stars — Wow, this one was both eye opening and adorable! I definitely loved it a lot more than book 1, and I don’t know if it was switching to ebook over audiobook, or if these characters were just more Lenore characters. I have a feeling it was a good dose of both of […]
4.5 stars — When I had 3 hours left on this audio, I thought I’d listen for an hour before bed…and suddenly it was 2am and I was finished and sniffling and happy. 😉 The narrators were absolutely fantastic in this one. Mr. Webber can occasionally be hit or miss for me, but he was […]
4 stars — Honestly, this was just good and cute, with enough depth and growth to keep me interested. Rose was a bit harder for me to connect with at times. It’s not that I didn’t feel for all she went through in her childhood and marriage, but I think sometimes it’s still hard to […]
5 stars — Wow. I don’t think I knew I needed this book, but I 100% needed this book. It didn’t even have the most prominent romance, but what I got more than satisfied me! There was just something magical, in so many senses of the word, in this story and these characters. It made […]
4.5 stars — As should come as a surprise to no one who knows me, S’bren and Penny were all that and a bag of chips for me. They were my kind of characters, and the story was just fun and sweet and steamy with enough intrigue to keep me going. I adore me a […]
3.5 stars — Strangely, there was actually a lot to love in this book. But if I’m being honest, I wasn’t as compelled by the story as I wanted to be. It’s my first book by Ms. Stiefvater, and I have a feeling I might have enjoyed it more if I’d read it a decade […]

3.5 stars — This was a pretty cute, light story with a good dose of woo-woo. Normally, I am not a super big fan of woo-woo, but I found that the way it was presented in the book was just as an important aspect of who Sam and his family were…not in a holier than […]
4.5 stars — This one surprised me with how much I loved it. Both narrators were new for me, but I enjoyed them both. They had great pacing, great emotions, and pretty good distinct voices. Mr. Griffith nailed Ethan’s kindness and occasional innocence. Ms. McKenna NAILED Naomi’s dryness, and the balance between her hard edges […]
