4.5 stars — This book definitely picked up at a gallop from the first book! Now that we’ve settled into the world a bit, and know our characters a bit more, I was able to just get sucked right in. I think it also helped reading instead of listening for me, the words just flowed […]
4 stars — I can always count on Ms. Madsen to deliver fun characters, with a good amount of sass and just enough depth to keep me interested and invested. Easton was pretty grumpy to begin with, but at least I could somewhat understand how he’d become jaded, and how the circumstances around Imogen just […]
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 […]
4 stars — This was a solid prequel novella! I will admit that I was pretty confused about the timeline and how it meshed with what I learned from Perry in book 1, but oh well. Roar was pretty easy to love. Sure he was headstrong, and didn’t always think before he acted. But you […]
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 […]
4 stars — Tam and Josh were just quirky and funny and nerdy and dorky and cute. It took me a bit to settle into this one. Maybe because I was just getting over a cold so my brain was a bit foggy? Not sure. Maybe because some of the situations felt a bit cliche? […]
4 stars — This one was a hard read for me. Part of me is waffling over 3.5 stars rounded up, but I honestly can’t decide. It doesn’t help that I read it while sick, which I honestly think just taints a read just a bit, you know? You’re foggier and all that. So why […]
4.5 stars — This was a seriously solid series ender! While there are a few things that I ponder over, in general it wrapped things up really well, answering questions and setting everything into a good position where I can imagine this world continuing on. Saira really felt like she came into her own throughout […]
3.5 stars — Is it the cold? Is it me? A bit of both? Basically this review was written while sick, and I’m still too tired to clean it up and do this book justice. But the rating speaks more than my words, I still rounded up. This was a solid romance, but I wasn’t […]
3.5 stars — So, this one was hard for me. And mostly just from a personality perspective, which hopefully will make sense. Here’s the thing: I am more like Emily in the Nerd Herd. I have always bucked *against* popularity, and just wanted to find people who like me for me. So Lily was always […]
