4.5 stars — So I actually went about this series all backwards, and read the 4th (most recent) book first. And I honestly didn’t think anything was going to be able to top Dave Beringer and Bountiful. I was wrong…or rather, I don’t know if this book (and Griffin) topped it, but it basically gave […]
OMG this book! Ok, I was pretty pissed about Ella’s reaction in the beginning. And while I appreciated her stubbornness in the first book, I felt that in this book the characters should show growth and hers was a bit slower. I mean, I get how she was just fed up, it was like she […]
OMG I thought I finished this review already! Ugh, now I have to try to recall all the things….. Well, I do have a favorite quote… “Fate is for the weak—those people who don’t have enough power or will to shape life into what they need it to be. I’m not there yet. I don’t […]
This book seemed to jump around a lot and the conversations weren’t very cohesive. I just don’t have the want to try and figure it all out. It wasn’t making sense and I got bored pretty quickly. Also, I got an uncorrected ARC and it had tons of errors that really messed with my enjoyability […]
3.5 stars — Phew! This one still had me wobbly on a few things, but the fact that I started reading it when I went to bed and stayed up until 4am to finish it speaks pretty strongly to it being compelling, donchathink? 😉 Seriously though, I could not put this one down. So despite […]
I am so unimpressed with this book. The MC comes off as way too cocky and I don’t care about him at all. And the female lead is a coward and sooo hypocritical it makes me cringe. First she leaves him, then she has the nerve to get mad at him for not chasing her! […]
This book is too slow for my tastes. I’m pretty disappointed because I love enemies to lovers stories but this one seems to be taking too long to develop and I don’t have the patience to wait. That’s a personal taste thing and nothing to do with the writing. This one just wasn’t for me.
3 stars — Well shoot. I can honestly say that I didn’t have as much success with this book. While there were things that I enjoyed, there were just too many other things that bugged me for it to be an enjoyable overall read. I’ll try not to get too ranty, but I do want […]
4 stars — This one was much closer to women’s fiction than I usually read, but I really enjoyed watching Dakota grow on her journey after being jilted. My heart ached right from the prologue, I could just picture her on that beach with all the tourists walking by her. I wanted to cry. She […]
4.5 stars — I don’t know what it was about this book, but it was just a Lenore book, you know? Like apparently it had all the right combination of things to just be perfect for this particular reader. It’s funny how that happens eh? Especially because it can be so hard to articulate what those […]
