3.5 stars — Cashol definitely stole the show in this one. Which is not to say that Megan was unlikeable, it’s just that Cashol…well, he was adorable. Teasing and adoring, but also strangely vulnerable in his own way. Megan was a bit harder for me to connect with at times, just because of how extreme […]
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 […]
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 […]
3.5 stars — I definitely enjoyed this one, but man Lydia was hard for me to connect with. I think I had a hard time making the connection that she saw Jonas’s attentions and sweet words as reminders of *false* sweet words she got from another. But since I kept forgetting that, her reactions would […]
3.5 stars — Callie was pretty hard to connect with for quite a bit of this book. Honestly, I would have rounded down, except that once I finally connected with her nearer to the end, I really appreciated how her fiery personality came out in a spirited sense of humour. And I think I laughed […]
3.5 stars — I was worried about starting this book, b/c I was getting over COVID and I didn’t want my brain fog to ruin my reading experience, you know? But I should have trusted Ms. Bowen more, she seems to be able to cut through so much of that and always suck me in. Vera […]
3.5 stars — If you’ve missed the Hashtag series, and want something extremely similar, then you are going to love this story. While for me it didn’t have the same connections and chemistry as #Nerd, it was still entertaining. NOTE: if you have triggers, please please search out trigger warnings for this book (there is […]
3.5 stars — Huh. It was okay. I wasn’t blown away. I wasn’t expecting the little bit of OM stuff at the beginning, but it didn’t last long at least. And honestly? I liked our mains, but I wasn’t like in love with either of them. I get that a big part of this story […]
3.5 stars — So, like the others, this book was a very easy and fast read. I find I get sucked in, and even when they’re a bit predictable, I don’t even mind. In general, I really enjoyed this story. But Kaine’s emotion management problems had ZERO growth, and that made this one not a […]
3.5 stars — If you have triggers, definitely check out trigger warnings for this book. I will admit, I found this book very confusing…not sure if it was my frame of mind, or the book, but there were definite moments where I had a hard time following Violet’s thoughts and actions. I will also note […]
