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 […]
4 stars — OK, this was just freaking adorable. And I learned a new romance book term — a cinnamon roll!!! I LOVE CINNAMON ROLLS!! Both the actual baking treat and the adorable heroes!!! BRING THEM ON!! Ahem. Anyways. I thought this was just exactly what I needed for a fun romance. Both Jordan and […]
This one started out super strong then kinda fizzled at the end. I’m glad it is only a two book series but I’d really love to hear what happens between Cade and Jules. So Reid and Briar are pretty strong even though they are both working through how deep their feelings for each other go […]
First off, let me say I had NO IDEA this was the same author as Uppercut Princess AND The Ballers of Rockport High series. I LOVED both of those series and now I’ve stumbled onto this dualogy too! Now I am actively looking at her other series to read. She is pretty diverse in her […]
4.5 stars — DUDES!!!! This book was so a Lenore book. Like, for realz, there was only one thing that was preventing this from being full 5 stars, and that just seriously makes me so happy. The funny thing is that I was worried!! I loved Conor in The Play. I read this blurb and […]
3 stars — I was so excited for this book. 1) Guy knitters?? Yes please! My hubby is a sexy male knitter, so I’m all over that. 2) Look at that cover! 3) #ownvoices book with main characters of colour?? WOOP! But…well…I kinda had to push myself to finish this book, and if it hadn’t […]
4 stars — OMG, this one tested my second hand embarrassment tolerance to the highest degree. And like, not even that exactly, but just being so annoyed with a main character, and wanting them to do better and be better! I almost put it in the freezer…it was that bad. I actually got worried about […]
4 stars — I got exactly what I was looking for in this book: a cute YA royalty story, mixed in with a strong black heroine. While just by being a book written by a black woman, containing a black heroine, we got a look at everyday life…but race wasn’t the main issue in the […]
3.5 stars — This was a tricky book where there was a LOT to it, a lot of depth in parts, but there was enough disconnect from what I want personally (as a reader), that it may just not have been the best fit for me…if that makes any sense. I had a hard time […]
4.5 stars — The banter and playfulness between Violet and Ford was BAR NONE my favourite part of this book. It just delighted me the witty rejoinders they would come up with. I laughed out loud at a few of them. They both had stellar senses of humour. I felt for the number that Violet’s ex […]
