4.5 stars — Wow. This was exactly the kind of rockstar romance I was really looking forward to. There was a rawness about it that just had me desperate to find out how things were going to turn out. But it was married with a sass and humour that I’ve come to know and love […]
3.5 stars — I think if I hadn’t been reading this for my Diversity challenge, I might have just DNF’d. And that doesn’t mean the book was bad, just that I think it wasn’t for me. It took me almost a whole month to read this one, I just didn’t reach for it. The narrators […]
4.5 stars — I told Brett that this one was an amalgamation of some of my favourite tropes: secret identity, secret baby, celebrity…even a bit of second chance. And it fulfilled everything I love about those tropes and more. Basically, Lenore was a happy reader…well, listener. Jonas was NOTHING like I was expecting for a […]
4 stars — This book had a lot of super cute moments mixed with plenty of heart and emotion. I had mixed feelings about our hero, but all in all it was a super satisfying romance. I loved a LOT of things about Weston — from his genuinely good heart, his ability to listen and […]
4 stars — After rereading book 2 in this series, I *had* to go back and reread the first one. There’s something about the whole premise of being trapped in a mall, trying to foil bad guys that just appeals to me. And I almost wonder if I enjoyed it even more the second time […]
4.5 stars — I was so afraid of starting this book, b/c I remember how Hallowed Ground had slayed me. I couldn’t even bring myself to reread the series before reading this one, b/c the emotions just hit home so hard. But as a result of not rereading, I feel like I can confirm that you […]
4.5 stars — Wow, it’s so hard to decide, but I think this was my favourite of the 3 so far! Still absolutely adored Mary Jane Wells as the narrator. She’s so consistent with her voices, with distinguishing between thoughts and dialogue, and she NAILS both the humour and the emotion of our characters. Penny was […]
4.5 stars — In so many ways this was a typical romance — I could see the conflict coming from a mile away. But in other ways it was something altogether new and different — the challenges that each of our characters faced, their quirks, were wholly unique. And in the end, both aspects played […]
3.5 stars — This book was up and down for me. There were elements that worked very very well, and there were elements that just didn’t for me. Basically, it was the ultimate mixed bag. The prologue sucked me in immediately and I felt a lot for both Reagan and Zac. The problem is that […]
4.5 stars — This one reminded me a LOT of Bridget Jones’s Diary in tone and snappy dialogue…I mean, the movies at least, it’s been so long since I read the book, I don’t remember what the writing was like. I was actually a little…put off? (or lost I think) by the fast pace of […]
