Ok, this book made me so mad! I know, I know, I shouldn’t judge unless I’ve been in her shoes, but guess what? I have. And I took a different path but I am absolutely judging over here. Honestly, this book was just a little too close to home and I think they were all […]
Favorite Quote: “Such as I practically burst into flames every time he looks at you—and he looks at you constantly. It’s a miracle I’m not bruised from wandering into the middle of all the eye-banging.” This one started out with a bang and just kept right on going. It was fast paced but not so […]
4.5 stars — Wow. This was a lot more emotional of a novella than I was expecting. Which is really silly, b/c it’s Kennedy Ryan…I should have known. I haven’t read anything in this series yet, and while we’re not introduced to any of those characters, I am intrigued by the world now. The thing […]
This was a cute xmas novella. Both characters had a nice depth and independance I could appreciate. And they both seemed like normal, no nonsense people. What I really liked about it was Mac’s past. I don’t know why but military backgrounds seem to always give a depper layer to a character, especially one that […]
Overall: 4 stars — Overall a pretty successful Christmas anthology. I liked that Gabe and the town of Friendship were both commonalities to each story, though that can sometimes cause continuity issues, because it’s hard for different authors to present the same things. Most of them seemed to fit, it was just the final story that […]
3 stars — Well, I ended up disappointed. This one just didn’t follow any formula I know, and I ended up feeling like I was slogging through the reading. Part of that is that the writing style isn’t a good match for me…it felt a bit verbose, and that’s not to my personal taste. Which […]
Overall: 4 stars — It seems for me that I always end up liking the first book the best…but I’m probably misremembering. That was definitely the case here though! It started off really strong, but all the books were solid Christmas reads. It was interesting to see how each author took the “snowed in together” trope […]
3 stars — OK, I know this is going to sound childish, but I’m not a fan of not knowing ahead of time if a book is going to be the first of a series or a standalone. Does it matter in the end? I suppose not. But I find if I think it’s a […]
3.5 stars — This one left me with muddled thoughts and feelings, so rating it is a bit hard for me. I’m finding it hard to articulate how I feel, but I’m going to try…this is just your warning. Basically, I enjoyed myself, but I also wasn’t blown away. I think I expected the mental […]
4.5 stars — This book was just really endearing. I laughed a lot, but I also felt a lot, and it made me think about myself a lot…which in my opinion makes for a pretty great book. I had a hard time with our heroine, Millie, but I loved her all the same. What’s weird is […]
