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 […]
3 stars — Well huh. I was kinda looking forward to this one, but it just wasn’t a match for me. It started off pretty slow for me, and while it did pick up, I felt like not as much happened in the story…I wanted more. I was also pretty frustrated with both our MCs […]
3.5 stars — I absolutely LOVED the first chapter and the relationship it sets up for Farah and Dougan. My heart broke, I was 100% invested, I was in love. The rest of the book just never quite lived up to that first chapter for me. I definitely FELT for what Dorian had been through, […]
4.5 stars — This one just settled in more strongly for me! There was definitely a lot of contention between the characters, but I wouldn’t call it enemies to lovers necessarily. I think I could just see how much Easton and Gemma wanted one another, so I was rooting for them. At first I wasn’t […]
3.5 stars — This was a solid romance, I just felt like it was missing something to really push it over the top. I can’t quite pinpoint what, but I just wanted *more*. Everything felt just a bit easy and rote in the story. Londyn was a solid heroine. She has a really interesting backstory, […]
3.5 stars — There were definitely some great parts to this book, but there were also some lulls and some disconnects for me… Ella was an intriguing heroine, she was all closed off in some ways, and mostly I understood why. What I didn’t get was her temper! Hoowee! Matt was actually pretty surprising for […]
3.5 stars — I thought I would like this one more than I did, but I was disappointed that Sam never really had plans to open up to anyone else, especially Steph…course, that might change after the book takes place, but I’m still bummed. Sam had a LOT going on with her, and having never […]
4 stars — I absolutely loved the setting for this book, and now kind of want to check out a renaissance faire. And while I enjoyed Simon and Emily’s story, I have a feeling it was never going to be my favourite in a series I’m looking forward to continuing. I listened to this one, […]
