3.5 stars — Oh you guys. Yet again I wrote notes for this review a few weeks ago, and then promptly kept not getting back to it. I need to stop doing that, it just doesn’t work for my brain. So if this review is weird, you’ve been warned. Narrator: OMG, Devra Woodward’s Nico voice […]
3.5 stars — This was a VERY hard book for me to rate. Honestly, if it hadn’t been an ARC, and I hadn’t been worried my slump was affecting my enjoyment, I might have DNF’d it. The first half of this book did NOT work for me. I couldn’t connect with either main character. The […]
4.5 stars — This was exactly the book I needed and didn’t know I was looking for. I was honestly starting to wonder if I was in a bit of a slump, and I was starting not to trust my feelings about books. But this book and THESE characters were just so endearing and easy […]
3 stars — If you already know Ms. Scott’s writing, and you loved her Waiting on the Sidelines series, then I think you will love this one as well. Unfortunately that’s not my fave of Ms. Scott’s work, and I found myself struggling with similar things in this story. Lily feels like a bit of […]
4 stars — This was just a fun, solid series prequel. Novellas can be tricky sometimes, in that so often I don’t get enough to feel satisfied. But I was satisfied with this one. Both characters had a lot going on with them, they were flawed but redeemable. I felt for Della’s struggle for her […]
Favorite Quotes: We didn’t just read books. We devoured them, brought them back up, and digested them again. We were like cows. Really cool, totally not fat, book cows. I was invisible once. Now, with my voice raising and my heart pumping, I felt like they saw me. Not the pretend Bella that Jake had […]
4.5 stars — Dudes, isn’t it weird how you don’t know you’ve missed something until you get it again? I really love the way this duo writes together. I don’t even know how to describe what it is about their writing, but it’s just seamless. And you get the best of both writers. And OMG, […]
4.5 stars — This book was just funny and delightful from start to finish. It made my heart happy, it had me laughing out loud, it had me crying, it was…exactly what I needed. Zachary Webber’s female voices and kid voices weren’t my fave, but they didn’t offend me like some narrators. I LOVE the […]
2 stars — So I was trying to find a mystery type book for one of my reading challenges, and this is one of the oldest NetGalley books I haven’t read…from when I first joined NetGalley and requested all sorts of things. Unfortunately this book was just…not engaging. I just had all sorts of problems […]
4 stars — This was a strange one for me, b/c I loved both Luca and Abby’s individual stories, and their eventual together story, but it took me a bit to be invested in their romance…but I was still satisfied in the end. I was so intrigued by Luca and his situation when we met […]
