4 stars — This was a super easy read, filled with likeable characters and fabulous chemistry. I genuinely think I would have enjoyed it even more if I hadn’t been sick while trying to get it finished in a timely manner, so I almost wonder if it would have been even a 4.5 star. First, […]
3 stars — This one had a lot of potential, and some definite great parts, but the pacing just didn’t work for me. I think I originally saw myself rating this 3.5 rounded up, and it just kept getting lower as the story dragged out. I will admit that near the end I flipped forward […]
4 stars — While I found the beginning a bit slower, I really enjoyed Jeremy and Aaron together. I felt like the issues they each faced were unique, something not as often explored. Jeremy was a playboy on the surface, but he was dealing with something pretty life changing in the background, something he didn’t […]
3.5 stars — This book was VERY much outside of my comfort zone. I won’t say there was no romance, but it truly was the backgroundest of background romances. I was anticipating a story told from one major POV (with maybe sprinklings of others), but this was truly a large cast book. That doesn’t tend […]
5 stars — Wow. I don’t think I knew I needed this book, but I 100% needed this book. It didn’t even have the most prominent romance, but what I got more than satisfied me! There was just something magical, in so many senses of the word, in this story and these characters. It made […]
3.5 stars — Huh. It was okay. I wasn’t blown away. I wasn’t expecting the little bit of OM stuff at the beginning, but it didn’t last long at least. And honestly? I liked our mains, but I wasn’t like in love with either of them. I get that a big part of this story […]
2.5 stars — If this hadn’t been a NetGalley ARC, I would have DNF’d it. It’s not a bad book per say, but it is NOT a Lenore book. I am SUPER picky about my military books…and this one wouldn’t have made the cut. But this was from my early days of requesting when I […]
3.5 stars — If you have triggers, definitely check out trigger warnings for this book. I will admit, I found this book very confusing…not sure if it was my frame of mind, or the book, but there were definite moments where I had a hard time following Violet’s thoughts and actions. I will also note […]
4.5 stars — There’s just something about this story that just made me so happy while reading it. Sure, I was able to predict quite a few “twists”, but honestly? It didn’t matter ONE BIT. I was delighted to watch Jess figure things out on her own. And she was so wrapped up in her […]
4 stars — This one will be hard to review. There were so many parts that had me smiling away and feeling delighted. There were other parts that got to my heart and had me hurting with Viola and Gracewood. And there were yet other parts where things felt…confusing. But that could have been just me. […]
