4.5 stars — OMG! The cuteness! I can’t even! I love YA’s like this, that make me feel uplifted and light even though they deal with some tough subjects. I felt a mix of emotions while reading it, for sure, but my overall feel was one of sparkling happiness. Can I just start by saying […]
4.5 stars — I was daunted by this book…I don’t know why, I so wanted to read it. But I just kept putting it off. Thank god for buddy reading, it was just the push I needed to get started. I did try the audio first, b/c I wanted to know how to pronounce things…but […]
4.5 stars — I predict that this is going to be a very hard review to write. That start killed me. I wasn’t expecting it, and as an animal lover I was crushed. But I think in some ways it helped me get into Christopher’s head right away, and what a fantastic and unique place […]
3.5 stars — Let me preface this review by saying I don’t read a lot of historical romances…in fact, I read very few. I’ve read a few that I loved and wanted to expand my interests, but it’s not something I gravitate towards. So basically, if you’re a fan of this genre, maybe take my […]
3.5 stars — I will admit I was worried about how I was going to like this book. But in general there were still a lot of things that delighted me and made my heart happy. I think where it faltered were issues from the first book that weren’t solved in this book — mainly […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 5 stars — Heartbreaking. Completely different from many paranormal-ish books I’ve been reading lately. Beautifully written — it jumps around in time a bit, but it’s the first time that I’ve actually enjoyed that in a book and found it appropriate b/c it adds something to the narrative at just the right times. […]
4 stars — Maybe even 4.5, still deciding. Poppy’s poop jokes and that kind of humour felt out of place. Don’t know why. I’m not opposed to that humour, it just didn’t fit for me. I LOVED Poppy’s quirks and generally sunny outlook. She was that strange mix of insecure and confident that I love […]
4 stars — I…think I’ve already read this one. I mean, it’s possible that the plots are just so similar sometimes, but I actually wonder if I read it on paperback and then forgot and snagged it on ebook because it was free at the Harlequin store. I’m leaning towards the latter…it would explain why […]
4.5 stars — Who has avoided this review for no reason whatsoever? This girl!! I finished it last night, and I just can’t get my thoughts in order. I have no idea why. I’m just in a bad mood. Dawn and Adam’s story was NOTHING like what I was expecting. I mean, I’m not sure […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3.5 stars — I saw Malik and Nicolette mentioned in one of Ms. Porter’s more recent books, and had to dig around in my kindle so I could reread this. It didn’t disappoint. I LOVED the chemistry and banter between Nic and Malik…some of their conversations had me cracking up! And I enjoyed […]
