Out of Time by April White

Out of Time by April White

5 stars — Since I’d read the box set of the first 3 books and they weren’t updated with the new epilogues, this was the first time I was able to read them.  I kind of loved getting a Ringo-related summary and then getting to see the epilogues in a row like that, it really […]

Grim and Bear It by Juliette Cross

Grim and Bear It by Juliette Cross

5 stars — You know how you start a series, and you know who all the heroines are going to be in a series (say, if it’s about 6 witch sisters), and almost right from the start, you know EXACTLY which one is your favourite, and whose story you are most looking forward to?  And […]

Ship Wrecked by Olivia Dade

Ship Wrecked by Olivia Dade

5 stars — Wow.  Just, this was more than everything I was looking for in a book, and I loved it from start to finish.  Sometimes I find 5 star reviews the hardest to write, because there’s so much I feel, but I don’t want to spoil anything and I feel weird just absurdly gushing, […]

Smart Mouth by Emma Lee Jayne

Smart Mouth by Emma Lee Jayne

5 stars — I devoured this in a day.  Less than a day.  Honestly, I wish it was longer, I could have just kept reading and reading…it was effortless.  It hit everything for me.  You know how there are just those books that feel like they were written specifically with you in mind?  Check and […]

You Should See Me in a Crown by Leah Johnson

You Should See Me in a Crown by Leah Johnson

5 stars — This book blew me away in all the best ways.  It was adorable.  It was thought provoking.  It was emotional.  It was everything I love about YA, with the added bonus of expanding my horizons in multiple ways through double diversity. I honestly don’t even know what to say, except that Liz was […]

Devil in Spring by Lisa Kleypas

Devil in Spring by Lisa Kleypas

5 stars — This book delighted me from start to finish.  Like, I can’t even tell you how much, it was just perfection for me. I always knew I was going to be fascinated by Pandora, but there was even more to her than I had been expecting.  It’s strange how learning about one physical […]

One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London

One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London

5 stars — Honestly, I’m not even sure where to start with this one, I feel like I’m still reeling…in a good way, but wow.  This book put me through SO MUCH, and I think it’s going to take a bit to recover, b/c I was seriously heavily invested.  I think the word I’m searching […]

Two Witches and a Whiskey by Annette Marie

Two Witches and a Whiskey by Annette Marie

5 stars — I don’t know if these books are getting better, or I’m just more invested because I’m in love with all the characters, or all of the above???  But seriously, I’m having SO MUCH FUN!!! Tori just keeps surprising me.  She’s a very complex character in some ways — she’s stubborn, brash, reckless…but […]

Dark Arts and a Daiquiri by Annette Marie

Dark Arts and a Daiquiri by Annette Marie

5 stars — DUDES!!!  It got even better!!!  I think part of that is that I was already introduced to the characters and the world, and definitely invested.  But part of it is the twists and turns and surprises in the story. Cris Dukehart was amazing at narration as always.  Honestly, I need to find […]
