OVERALL: 4 stars — 3 solid stories that actually made me happy? Not a bad ratio IMO. HOT ITEM by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward 4 stars — I almost DNF’d this one in the first few pages!! Holly and Bryce don’t start this book off on the best foot, and they gave me a […]
OVERALL: 3 stars — August and November were the stand outs for me! I think I’m starting to realize I may not be into anthologies of short stories, especially when often times they are fan service, and if you’re not already a fan it leaves you a bit in the lurch. JANUARY – RINGING IN […]
4 stars — This one was probably 4.5 stars for quite a bit of it, but the ending kind of hit me pretty suddenly. I don’t know if it’s actually worth the half star loss, but it just felt like I was expecting something more. I did get a great epilogue, don’t get me wrong, […]
4 stars — Wow, I didn’t see the conflict in this one coming! I kind of appreciate that Ms. Dixon showcased what it would be like for a couple, especially a couple coming from different planets, trying to figure out how to compromise in the bedroom. I especially loved Josie’s talk with Dagesh. I really […]
3.5 stars — There were so many things I enjoyed, but the frustration with certain things was strong my friends! Loved Ms. Wells’s accents, it really added to the character of Nève when she was speaking. Occasionally I’m not sure if I would have read certain passages differently, and maybe would have warmed up to […]
DNF @17% — Wow. We hadn’t even gotten to the start of what was listed as the blurb, and I’m already totally out. Neither character was that admirable in my opinion. I was almost out with Krista from her first blog post that starts the book. I’m not the kind of person that’s interested in […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4 stars — OK, I have generally always loved Lynne Graham books…there are always exceptions to the rule, but I know I can gamble on her books and *usually* come out a winner. This was no exception and reminded me why Ms. Graham takes the “Presents” genre and goes with it without the […]
DNF @14% — When it’s been 11 days, and you’ve only made it a few chapters in, it’s time to call it. I was really interested in the anxiety rep for this book, and the own voices in general. And, so far, the anxiety rep looked really solid. My problem is I just wasn’t interested […]
4 stars — I found this one to feel a bit shorter than the other two novellas, and I will admit I wish I had a bit more time of Hannah and Ian together. Partially because I really loved the moments where they bonded in the past on that one day, and would have loved […]
4.5 stars — Damn! I seem to be in a novella mood, and luckily I also seem to be finding ones that succeed despite the short format! Yay me! Yay books! Can I start off by saying that I adored this narrator? She was both cute and sassy, and while I genuinely have NO IDEA […]
