3 stars — I’m not in the best reading mood, but all things considered I was hoping for more from this book. If it hadn’t been a NetGalley, I probably would have DNF’d and moved on as it just wasn’t a match for me. The thing that disappointed me the most is that the characters […]
4 stars — Well that one read up really fast! And it was exactly what I was looking for, a solid contemp romance. Andie and Heath were pretty typical of what I expect from this kind of romance — small flaws but generally pretty easy to love. Andie had spent a lot of time with […]
4 stars — This book was equal parts 5++++ stars and 3 stars. So I averaged at 4 (though sometimes I think it’s more 4.5 rounded down). I found myself skimming ahead at some of the parts where I was sure misunderstandings were abounding (though ironically it wasn’t what I thought in one particular instance), cause […]
3.5 stars — I will admit, I’m a little bummed that I didn’t enjoy this one more…or at least as much as the first book in this series. The problem is that I found it pretty predictable, which is a shame. I totally saw how things would play out with the conflict and was just […]
4.5 stars — Fantastic finale! Even in the reading slump I am in, I was still sucked in by the story. It was a bit slower for me to start, but once they got to Rome I was hooked. The thing with final books in a series is, the best ones actually answer all the […]
3.5 stars — There were parts of this story that I loved, but I will admit I became frustrated with both Emma and Jake for holding on to preconceptions for so long. But at the same time, they felt pretty real — their flaws were easy to see, easy to connect with, and while I wanted […]
4 stars — I wasn’t sure how this book was going to play out, but I found 90% of it to be absolutely delightful, and I loved it! I’ll get to the other 10% later. I loved learning about yet more pieces of world history that I knew nothing about — in this case the Cuban […]
3.5 stars — I definitely laughed out loud, and even groaned on more than one occasion. Josh does a pretty good job of narrating the book himself, which makes sense since he’s a motivational speaker…it would likely give him a leg up. Pun unintended, but still funny. I definitely enjoyed his earlier stories, and it totally […]
4 stars — This one was slow for me to get into, but once I did it delivered right to the end It took a bit to warm up to Alex. I’m sensitive, so he came across mean at first. I do know people who have that personality, and I will admit I’m taken aback […]
4 stars — This one had a fantastic start, I really enjoyed the unconventional relationship between Drew and Billie. You could feel the connection, even as they both hid behind their roles. Then it got kind of crazy, and I was not impressed with the high tempers of Drew and Billie. Thank goodness for Alanza […]
