2.5 stars — *sigh* This was not a bad book per se. But I think the narration magnified the flatness of this story. I bet I would have enjoyed it more if I’d read it (though I doubt it would be a fave even then). I’ve enjoyed the male narrator before, and he was pretty […]
4.5 stars — I made the mistake of reading this book while I was listening to another book that had a lot of similarities, so I will admit that that had me flustered and confused sometimes. Rookie mistake, I swear. Regardless of all that, I really fell in love with the quirky characters in this book, from […]
I love the layers Kendall has, although personality wise she is nothing special. Just a broken girl who keeps getting back up after being knocked down so much. I think she could have been fleshed out a bit more. The four guys are run of the mill in their alpha, beta, comedic and easy going […]
4.5 stars — OK, I was totally not expecting a Phantom of the Opera retelling!! That delighted me. I don’t know if it’s bad to ruin that, because it occurred to me slowly, more and more, as the book went on…but then again, it could bring people to the book who might not have taken […]
4 stars — Well…huh. So, this is another mixed bag for me. On the one hand, I found both Cece and Emmett to be a bit unbearable in their pretention and snobbery…and I’m not generally a fan of seeing my MCs in a romance getting together/kissing/etc with other people (and we saw that from both […]
4 stars — There were parts of this book that were like 5+ stars incredible. So much great humour at times, and in general I found Marshall to be super swoony. Plus, bunnies. Unfortunately, Gus frustrated me on *many* occasions, lowering my final rating. I know it was probably a bad idea to read a […]
3.5 stars — This one started off as a solid 4 star, and I was really intrigued about what went down that caused Nick to leave, and how their reunion was going to go. Both characters seemed solid and likeable. I loved the ownvoices aspect to Zora. And I’m always down for a book with smart/nerdy […]
4.5 stars — Well, this book was a lot more emotionally impactful than I was expecting. Not that I don’t expect any emotion, but I also don’t expect to have a bawling episode. But I’m also tired. When I started reading the book, I wasn’t sure what to think about Connor. He’s this reticent, reserved […]
5 stars — AAAAAHHHHHH!!!! I have the BIGGEST GIRL CRUSH IN HISTORY!!!! I remember Code of Conduct being my favourite book (that I read) from Smartypants Romance Launch #1, and Ms. White was a new author to me at that time. So I had high hopes for this story, but anything can happen, you know? […]
4.5 stars — This was a FANTASTIC new addition to this series!! I did read Stud Muffin before this one, and while I’m personally glad I did, you wholeheartedly could read this one as a standalone without missing anything. Frankie was such an intriguing heroine! She was SO CLOSED OFF it was insane! But for […]
