4 stars — If you’re looking for a sweet, super low angst M/M, look no further. Occasionally I felt like it was a bit too sweet, but then you know what? Sometimes I want all that happy. Sometimes it’s nice to read the happy. Caleb and Tag were just so freaking adorable, I can’t even. […]
4 stars — I…don’t read Middle Grade books. I just don’t have a lot of interest, probably because I cringe at my middle grade self when I think on the past. It’s a rough age, no doubt about that. But I saw this on Chirp, and it had Julia Whelan as a narrator, and I […]

If you missed Stephanie’s post from yesterday, check it out at Once Upon a Chapter. And look for Lillian’s review this Thursday at Mom With a Reading Problem. Welcome to my second review […]
4 stars — Well, that was entirely unexpected!! I actually started off listening to the audiobook for this one, and while I was really enjoying Ms. Nankani’s narration, all of the online chatting made for a tedious listening experience (because she had to read off EVERYTHING). And confusing on occasion. So I switched to the […]
4 stars — Well this book surprised me with the depth it contained! It also had me ordering Japanese food, but that’s because I’m easily influenced. This was my first time listening to Ryan West, and he was pretty solid. I will say that with both narrators I had a harder time figuring out dialogue […]
4 stars — Well this was a fun and quirky retelling…not that, I will admit, I know ANYTHING about the story of Thumbelina. I really should look it up. But regardless of knowing very little of the original story, I loved the story that was told in this book. I kind of loved how both […]
4 stars — When I first read this blurb, I wasn’t at all interested…I don’t know why, I think because Suzie is always shown as so unstable…or at least that’s the impression I get from Winston Brothers books. But then I read the second book in this series, and I totally figured out what they […]
4 stars — You know what sucks about coming into a wildly popular series years later? You hear things…you see people talking about things. And so you end up with expectations, or hints to plots or characters or whatever. So what’s the result? The result is that I couldn’t just let myself go while reading […]
4 stars — Wow, those secrets were, in some ways, darker than I had expected. And yet many parts of this book were so fun and sweet! Gigi was pretty adorable, and it’s amazing how bright she shined given her life up until that point. It was actually kind of delightful to see. I admire […]
4 stars — I think this book went a little differently than I was expecting from the blurb. I expected a much stronger music/poetry component, and it wasn’t really there…it was more background, felt tacked on. But at the same time what I did get was fantastic. Cooper surprised the heck out of me. I was […]
