3.5 stars — Unfortunately for me, I found this one to be a bit too long and drawn out. The good parts were really good, and if it had been condensed I would have enjoyed it more for sure. I think the other problem is that I don’t seem to be as big a fan […]
4 stars — Oooo, this one is hard for me to rate, because I was genuinely frustrated by the lack of communication by both Sadie and Desmond. BUT there were all these other good things in the book, so I’m sticking with the 4 stars, and not 3.5…the good deserves it. I think part of […]
4 stars — My reading buddy likened this book to a Hallmark Christmas movie, and I have to agree that it’s a pretty great comparison! It’s light, but has enough depth to keep things interesting. And while you generally know the final outcome pretty early, the journey is still fun. I will admit that I […]
4 stars — This review is going to be a bit lacklustre and all over the place, but I’m leaving it as I wrote it after reading. Read it while I was sick, might have affected my enjoyment because I couldn’t read it in a short period of time. The pacing felt a little slow […]
4.5 stars — I totally didn’t reread the blurb before starting this book, and completely forgot the hook for this story! It had me sucked in and emotionally invested right from the start. E was absolutely adorable. His whole character, and the romance between E and Delilah reminded me of one of my favourite authors, […]
OVERALL: 4 stars — 3 solid stories that actually made me happy? Not a bad ratio IMO. HOT ITEM by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward 4 stars — I almost DNF’d this one in the first few pages!! Holly and Bryce don’t start this book off on the best foot, and they gave me a […]
OVERALL: 3 stars — August and November were the stand outs for me! I think I’m starting to realize I may not be into anthologies of short stories, especially when often times they are fan service, and if you’re not already a fan it leaves you a bit in the lurch. JANUARY – RINGING IN […]
4 stars — This one was probably 4.5 stars for quite a bit of it, but the ending kind of hit me pretty suddenly. I don’t know if it’s actually worth the half star loss, but it just felt like I was expecting something more. I did get a great epilogue, don’t get me wrong, […]
4 stars — Wow, I didn’t see the conflict in this one coming! I kind of appreciate that Ms. Dixon showcased what it would be like for a couple, especially a couple coming from different planets, trying to figure out how to compromise in the bedroom. I especially loved Josie’s talk with Dagesh. I really […]
3.5 stars — There were so many things I enjoyed, but the frustration with certain things was strong my friends! Loved Ms. Wells’s accents, it really added to the character of Nève when she was speaking. Occasionally I’m not sure if I would have read certain passages differently, and maybe would have warmed up to […]
