3 stars — Well darn. I don’t know what book everyone else read, but apparently I am wholeheartedly in the minority within my bookish friends. My hubby and I listened to this one, and it took over *3* months for us to get through this. Brett would be like “wanna listen to another chapter?” and […]
4.5 stars — I think I’m becoming a Devney Perry fan. This series is my first real foray, but there’s something about the way she writes romance that just works for me. There’s enough push and pull in a lot of areas of the plot, but it doesn’t drag out the relationship necessarily. You actually get […]
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 […]
4.5 stars — Fantastic finale! Even in the reading slump I am in, I was still sucked in by the story. It was a bit slower for me to start, but once they got to Rome I was hooked. The thing with final books in a series is, the best ones actually answer all the […]
4 stars — I wasn’t sure how this book was going to play out, but I found 90% of it to be absolutely delightful, and I loved it! I’ll get to the other 10% later. I loved learning about yet more pieces of world history that I knew nothing about — in this case the Cuban […]
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 […]
4 stars — This one had a fantastic start, I really enjoyed the unconventional relationship between Drew and Billie. You could feel the connection, even as they both hid behind their roles. Then it got kind of crazy, and I was not impressed with the high tempers of Drew and Billie. Thank goodness for Alanza […]
4.5 stars — Well that was fucking delightful. It brought me back to when I first discovered romance books, and how easy it was to fall in love with characters and a romance. Mariah had so many elements of my favourite kinds of heroines, and I absolutely adored her. I ached for what she went […]
4.5 stars — This series is just solid, I’m both excited for the final book, and not willing to let it go yet. I definitely got frustrated with Gio in a few places in this book. He was just so stubborn, holding on to her humanity for reasons that didn’t feel good enough for me. […]
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 […]
