4.5 stars — I can’t believe how much I felt for these characters in such a short period of time. The way Ms. Ryan conveys her character’s emotions is so very effective…it sucker punched me right in the feels. And what’s more interesting is that I would feel for Bristol, and then she would have […]
3.5 stars — I totally thought from the premise of the book that this one would be more erotica-ish. But it wasn’t really. Sure, it was an unconventional romance, but I wouldn’t say the steam was any higher than other adult romances. I was intrigued by the book, but I wasn’t wholly sucked in. I […]
4 stars — I really enjoyed this one!! It was a bit rough, starting the book with our main characters being split up, but I enjoyed getting glimpses of the past and seeing them work through their problems. It’s funny, b/c in another situation I could see this not working for me, so I’m not […]
DNF @ 7% — OK, I’ll be honest. That 7% makes me feel really guilty. This one had some great highlight-worthy lines, but I also fell asleep and had a hard time focusing on it…in the FIRST 7%. Not a great start. Sometimes there are books that aren’t style fits, and I found it hard […]
DNF @54% — I was actually really excited about this book, b/c I’d read a short story by Ms. Martinez in an anthology (F*cking Awkward), and it featured characters who were secondary characters from this series…and I LOVED that short story. It was hilarious and fun and witty. So I figured I couldn’t go wrong […]
4.5 stars — I’m honestly still processing. I was so worried about this book, b/c Kjell was really hard to like in The Bird and the Sword…which is not to say I didn’t like him, but I almost liked him reluctantly if that makes sense. I knew this story was going to be a hard […]
4-stars — Huh, the book went in slightly different directions than I was expecting! I really didn’t expect the time travel-ish aspect to the story! No, that’s a lie. I knew there had to be something b/c of the hints at the end of the previous book. But I didn’t expect it to take up […]
4.5 stars — OK, first thing you should know about me is that I’m a scared crier…meaning tears fall out of my eyes uncontrollably (b/c it’s not normal crying) when I get scared. And this book is NOT scary people. I mean, there are suspenseful bits, sure. But apparently just the concept of ghosts scares […]
3.5 stars — I’ve enjoyed a few of these Kpop Romances by Ms. Bennett, and they are always a fun, light, quick read! This one was no exception. There were so many cute moments between Chansol and Talitha, moments that totally made me smile and gave me butterflies. Unfortunately, there were also some cringey moments […]
5 stars — Oh my word, this was just suck me in fantastic. If you are a frequent reader of my reviews, you will know that I don’t give full 5 stars very often. 4.5? Sure. 5? Nope. And I can never tell you the criteria for making it over the edge, it’s just gut […]
