4.5 stars — Well I was sucked in right from start to finish! I don’t know if it was because Emma Wilder did such a great job narrating, and I could listen to her Liam for hours on end, or if the story was just that absorbing…so we’ll go with both. Obviously loved the narrator. […]
3.5 stars — This book was VERY much outside of my comfort zone. I won’t say there was no romance, but it truly was the backgroundest of background romances. I was anticipating a story told from one major POV (with maybe sprinklings of others), but this was truly a large cast book. That doesn’t tend […]
4 stars — The humour on this one sucked me in practically from the first page and was picture Lenore perfect right to the end. The snarky wise-cracking between Dephne and Annette was just *mwah* perfection. If I hadn’t listened to most of it, I probably would have highlighted a whole schwakload of their banter, […]
3.5 stars — This was fairly different from most books I read, most especially for the lack of romance…but that seems to be the picks I gravitate to for my hubby buddy reads. And this was a book club book…for June, but whatever, so I’m a wee bit late. 😛 I definitely enjoyed it, though […]
4.5 stars — I started off absolutely loving this one — it was everything I love in a Christina Lauren book: spunky heroine, sweet hero, moments of comedy, interesting and different characters (both main and secondary). And an interesting and unique premise. Even the push and pull between Lily and Leo was palpable — struggling with […]
3 stars — I’m not in the best reading mood, but all things considered I was hoping for more from this book. If it hadn’t been a NetGalley, I probably would have DNF’d and moved on as it just wasn’t a match for me. The thing that disappointed me the most is that the characters […]
3.5 stars — I definitely laughed out loud, and even groaned on more than one occasion. Josh does a pretty good job of narrating the book himself, which makes sense since he’s a motivational speaker…it would likely give him a leg up. Pun unintended, but still funny. I definitely enjoyed his earlier stories, and it totally […]
3.5 stars — I’ve only recently gotten into historical romance, and I’m probably pretty picky about it. While this didn’t wow me like Ms. Kleypas or Ms. Dare, for a debut it was pretty solid. This was my first time listening to Ms. Jasicki, but I really enjoyed her. It’s funny, something about her accent […]
3.5 stars — There were some absolutely shining moments in this book, moments where I laughed out loud, steamy moments that definitely worked for me. But there were also some little nitpicky things that bothered me, and if you know me at all, you know I’m not huge on miscommunication stuff in books. And this […]
4.5 stars — Quirky and fun and odd, but maybe a titch drawn out longer than I would have normally liked. This was a new narrator for me, and she was solid. She had a lot of qualities that reminded me of some of my favourite narrators — solid different voices, great pacing and emotions. […]
