4 stars — I relistened to the first one before diving in to catch up on this series, and this one was just as cute as that one. I don’t think I initially noticed how low steam these ones are, but honestly I don’t actually care. I like all steam levels, and this one was […]
4 stars — I was a little worried about how I would tolerate the more serious topics in this story, and if I was in the right mood for that. But I thought there was a pretty good balance, and honestly? I got sucked in to Mattie and Logan’s story. And I kind of loved […]
4.5 stars — I’m always wary of prequels. Will they live up? Will they fundamentally change the character? This one was spectacular. We got to see a much different Viv, but the fundamentals are still the same. And not only that, we got to see glimmers of her changing into the Viv we meet in […]
4.5 stars — I’m not sure what I was expecting from Fizzy’s book, but this wasn’t it…in the BEST possible way. Fizzy was delightfully exuberant, unapologetically herself, totally sex positive, and yet lost in such a unique way. I’m sure I’ve read a heroine like her, but trust me when I say it’s rare. I […]
3.5 stars — I was absolutely sucked into this one from the beginning, but I’m not sure if my mood changed and affected the reading, or if the story truly just didn’t keep the same pace. That’s the frustrating thing — am I distracted b/c the book isn’t holding my attention, or is the book […]
4.5 stars — My regret? That I didn’t read this earlier and faster so that I could have met Ms. Eddings in person this past weekend. Ah well. Why is it that sometimes the hardest reviews to write are the really good ones? The biggest thing I can say about this book is that I […]
4.5 stars — I actually read these novellas totally out of order and finished this one last, but that didn’t impact my enjoyment at all! I wasn’t sure what I was going to get with these two characters, but what I got was freaking adorable. I loved the crushes, and the tentativeness, and the blushes, […]
4.5 stars — This one just hit for me. There was something about Axel and Rooney that had me captivated even from the previous books. They are such a study in contrasts in some ways, but seeing them find safety in one another was so rewarding. I feel like I got a completely different impression […]
4.5 stars — OK, this one was absolutely fucking adorable, and I loved it from start to finish. Jameson was so cute and awkward and nerdy, he was just delightful. He was also brilliant, thoughtful, and caring. Honestly? Will was the surprise hero for me. He had that facade of cockiness, just like his friend […]
4 stars — I just love how Ms. White packs so much into her books. I honestly feel like my favourite part is reading the Author’s Note at the end and finding out which elements were based in fact and where she took liberties to make it work in this world. I have read the […]
