3.5 stars — Well shit, picky Lenore strikes again. I wonder if it didn’t help that I had such high expectations for this book, since everyone I know really loved it and was wowed by it, but it just fell short for me unfortunately. Which is not to say it was a bad book, it […]
4.5 stars — This book surprised me in the best possible ways, and I made the mistake of starting it before bed, which consequently had me up until almost 2am reading. A previous Lenore wouldn’t have been able to put it down even then, but I’m getting old people… I thought I knew what I […]
4 stars — I was a little worried about the woo woo aspect of the story, but for me it was just a plot device, and remained a solid contemporary romance. And while this story was light in some aspects, I really appreciated how it brought about these conversations about what makes a relationship long […]
2.5 stars — I probably went into this wary from the little I remembered of Abraham from previous books, and unfortunately he never won me over. I totally understand that there is a WHOLE schwakload of humans out there still fully intrenched in toxic masculinity. But if my hero is going to be swimming in […]
3.5 stars — I think inevitably these books in this series are solid, just a little underwhelming somehow. Like, they’re just a bit too short, missing that extra something to give me the satisfaction I’m looking for. Unlike many reviewers, I actually really enjoyed the flashback to the past! I loved seeing Clara and Carson’s […]
4 stars — This was a solid romance, if a bit short. I think it didn’t hurt that I really enjoyed both narrators. This is my second time listening to Mr. Snow, and I just really like his voice. Both narrators were fantastic with pacing, voices and emotions, they made it so easy to listen. […]
3.5 stars — This one started off super flat for me. Honestly, if it wasn’t a book club book and I wasn’t buddy reading, I would have DNFd and moved on to something else. I don’t really read MG books, but this one definitely read more like MG than YA for me. The characterizations were […]
5 stars — Wow. Just, this was more than everything I was looking for in a book, and I loved it from start to finish. Sometimes I find 5 star reviews the hardest to write, because there’s so much I feel, but I don’t want to spoil anything and I feel weird just absurdly gushing, […]
3.5 stars — I think my mediocre rating for this one had to do with 2 things on a personal front: having expectations for who Stacey was and how I thought this story would go; and simultaneously reading a book I’m really loving so I would inevitably compare the two and notice more clearly what […]
4 stars — I really love this quirky little town and it’s lovable crazy characters. I will admit that I had an entirely different expectation of who Jayna was going to be, and I think it took me a little bit to warm up to her. She’s very forthright and ambitious and I was expecting […]
