4.5 stars — I adore this series, and so checking out the audiobook version was a no-brainer. I had previously felt the start was a bit slow, but when listening to it I thought the pace flowed much more smoothly. Ms. Swanepoel’s narration of Della was pretty spot on…she conveyed the snark and sassiness quite […]
4.5 stars — You guys, that blurb, and the whole concept of this book scared me. Not because I was worried it wasn’t going to be good, but sometimes I need a boost to dive into a book I know is going to give me the feelz. But my hubby was all “stop procrastinating, just […]
3 stars — I don’t know, there was nothing inherently wrong with this book, I just had a hard time staying focused, and I didn’t really connect that strongly with Cam or Alex. And characters are a huge part of why I fall in love with books, so that’s a bummer for me. It felt […]
4 stars — OK, if you guys want to know the honest truth, I apparently forgot about this review. I don’t even know how that happened. I finished this like almost 3 months ago and wrote a few vague notes, and then…what? What happened? I don’t even know. It got lost in the shuffle? I […]
4.5 stars — OK, this was an adorable little novella. It actually felt fairly complete, and only a teeny bit rushed. I was a little worried since their relationship started off extremely quickly with the fling aspect that I wouldn’t completely buy into the development of their feelings…and I will admit, that part is a […]
4.5 stars — Okay, so I admit I haven’t read the previous 2 books in this series, but other than making me want to read them now, it didn’t affect my enjoyment WHATSOEVER!! So I can confidently say that when they say it can be read as a standalone, it totes can!! I think 80% […]
4 stars — OK, this was a totally adorable conclusion to the Man Hands series. Which, don’t get me wrong…you don’t need to read the previous two books to enjoy this one at all. But given the glimpses of Brynn & Tom and Ash & Braht that we got, I have no doubt newbies will […]
4 stars — This was a cute little read! It was short and, as a result, things moved quite quickly — which isn’t always a bad thing, but it did feel a bit quick on the feelings front. But even as short as it was, it still had some great messages for teens…that I think […]
4.5 stars — For a first foray into young adult, Ms. Bowen really nailed the feel of it — I ADORED IT!!! I loved all the different struggles we got to experience with Rachel. From navigating through her grief, adjusting to a father she’s never met, friendships that change and grow, and first love, it […]
4.5 stars — I’m having a hell of a time writing this review, and it’s not because I didn’t love it…probably the cause is the opposite. I truly LOVED it and yet I’m having a hard time getting my thoughts in order. This book was gritty. Emotional. REAL. I felt all the things for both […]
