You Had Me at Hola by Alexis Daria

You Had Me at Hola by Alexis Daria

4.5 stars — In so many ways this was a typical romance — I could see the conflict coming from a mile away.  But in other ways it was something altogether new and different — the challenges that each of our characters faced, their quirks, were wholly unique.  And in the end, both aspects played […]

Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales

Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales

4 stars — I’ve had ups and downs with retellings, but this one was totally solid! Mr. Sanderlin was a solid narrator.  He wasn’t my favourite, but it’s probably just a personal taste thing, not because of his talent.  In general his different voices were fairly easy to tell apart, I mostly only had a […]

Where You’ll Find Me by Erin Fletcher

Where You’ll Find Me by Erin Fletcher

3.5 stars — This was an up and down read for me.  I was hella intrigued by the blurb, and I just needed a short satisfying YA read, you know?  There were aspects I definitely loved, but I also felt like the story was a bit drawn out and boring at times…it was just missing […]

3.5 stars — This book was up and down for me.  There were elements that worked very very well, and there were elements that just didn’t for me.  Basically, it was the ultimate mixed bag. The prologue sucked me in immediately and I felt a lot for both Reagan and Zac.  The problem is that […]

Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall

4.5 stars — This one reminded me a LOT of Bridget Jones’s Diary in tone and snappy dialogue…I mean, the movies at least, it’s been so long since I read the book, I don’t remember what the writing was like.  I was actually a little…put off? (or lost I think) by the fast pace of […]

The Governess Game by Tessa Dare

The Governess Game by Tessa Dare

4.5 stars — I can’t decide if I liked this book more than the first, or just the same?  I think I might have enjoyed it even more!!  Which is yay!!! Mary Jane Wells continued to do a fabulous job with narration.  I occasionally found it hard to determine the speaker, specifically because she would […]
