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 — This is another review that I left for like a month with only a few notes, so it’s going to be disjointed and lacking. Heck, at this point I don’t even remember if I’d wanted to round up or down! :S I think it was down, but honestly I need to get […]
4.5 stars — So what do I do when I finish an amazing book by an author that’s left me with a huge book hangover?? Pick up another book by that author that I’ve also been afraid to read b/c of feelz!!! Why am I not doing this more often? Because this book just 100% […]
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 […]
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% […]
4.5 stars — Please excuse me while I attempt to recover…. *weeps silently* OK, that probably gives an inaccurate vibe of the book…it has sad parts, but it’s not overall a sad book. I am just a ridiculously weepy person, so I’m quick to bawling. I must say, this is my second time reading this […]
4.5 stars — It’s been a LONGGGGGGG time since I read Losing It, and I don’t know if I really remember it well. If I’d planned better, I probably would have wanted to reread it before reading this one, but I don’t think you lose that much by not doing that. I can honestly say […]
4.5 stars — This was definitely my favourite of the Rusk University series!! Mateo was just as adorable as I was expecting…and he was covering such a big hurt, my heart felt for him. Wish the fact he was hispanic had played into it somehow…never really knew much about him outside of Lina…except that one […]
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 […]
