3 stars — I think I wanted to like this one more than I did…since I kept doing anything other than listening to this audiobook to finish it. It wasn’t a bad story, there were just a few things that didn’t work for me and prevented me from loving it. One of the major things […]
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 […]
3.5 stars — There were some absolute 5 star moments in this book where Lucas and Tess would settle into this teasing banter, and I would be on my walks laughing out loud, and it was just delightful. But there were also moments that felt drawn out, moments where the development of Tess may have […]
4 stars — I was worried about this one, because I had kind of expected Daisy to have changed a lot given her burns at the end of that last book. But she really hadn’t. We got a look inside her head, and initially I was pretty disappointed. And even O’jek was a bit…brusque. Which […]
3.5 stars — As is becoming a trend in my reviews lately, I honestly can’t figure out if I’m being nitpicky about the books I’m reading because there are actual things to nitpick, or if my mood/health has affected my reading enjoyment. I listened to this one, and the narrator was okay. Not like blow […]
3.5 stars — It was definitely cute, but it felt like what it was: a bonus novella to top off a series. I wasn’t expecting the prologue and epilogues, but I thought they worked okay as a way to finally introduce Aubrey and Landon’s story. Aubrey was pretty awesome. I appreciated how smart she was […]
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 stars — This was totally entertaining, and while I bet I would have enjoyed the cameos more if I’d read the original Masters & Mercenaries series, I didn’t feel lost. Just like I don’t think anyone would be lost without reading the Nights in Bliss series, but you definitely got some fun cameos out […]
2.5 stars — I’m so glad that this book was not my first book by this author, because I probably would have never gotten back to her. The thing is, her writing is actually really solid. There were so many fun moments between Josh and Kristen. But wow, the things that disappointed me were numerous […]
3.5 stars — This one was kind of slow for me. And I think that part of that is because I listened instead of read. The narrator’s style just didn’t work for me. The funny thing is that I can see how it works well with the style of book that this was, but I […]
