Under the Spotlight by Angie Stanton

Under the Spotlight by Angie Stanton

2.5 stars — Well…I guess this is one series I should NOT have finished.  I should have listened to my gut that had me avoiding reading Garrett’s book, b/c this one definitely disappointed.  Or maybe it’s that it lived down to my low expectations.  Basically, if you’re hoping that Garrett has a huge transformation, or […]

The Dare by Elle Kennedy

The Dare by Elle Kennedy

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 […]

Upsy Daisy by Chelsie Edwards

Upsy Daisy by Chelsie Edwards

4.5 stars — I feel like it’s been awhile since I’ve been this emotionally impacted by a story.  Daisy GOT to me.  Like, I felt so hard for her, even despite the HUGE mistakes she was making all over the place.  And it wasn’t just her, Trevor too!  My poor hubby had to try to […]

Demon Dawn by M.J. Haag

Demon Dawn by M.J. Haag

4.5 stars — Well, this one helped my slump!  There’s nothing like a favourite series to do that sometimes… I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about Brenna, because she is just so forceful and angry and off-putting.  But I actually really appreciated her journey.  I know this will sound weird, but I […]

Wasted Words by Staci Hart

Wasted Words by Staci Hart

3.5 stars — I will admit that I have not read any Austen books, including Emma.  But as I was reading this book I realized I did know another Emma retelling really well: Clueless!!  It helped to have that in the back of my mind in some ways, to sort of acknowledge certain aspects of […]

The Play by Elle Kennedy

The Play by Elle Kennedy

3.5 stars — Overall I was definitely entertained, but I wasn’t quite as sucked in as other books in this series.  That might have just been me, and my mental state at the moment, it’s hard to tell these days.  I also left this review as just notes for freaking ever, and now I’m too […]

Ripples & Waves by L.A. Witt

Ripples & Waves by L.A. Witt

4 stars — This was a solid emotional and entertaining Little Mermaid retelling.  Thankfully without the tragedy of the original (sort of spoiler, but I’d want to know). I loved the way that the Mer were portrayed, especially that they didn’t look exactly like humans with tails — just little things like the gills, and […]

Unlikely Allies by Tiffany King

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 5 stars — God damn you Tiffany King!! Do you care that I had to get up at 4am for work today?? Nooooo…you had to make your book unputdownable. So yeah, tantrum over. LOVED it. Loved all the characters…main, side, side side…all. Kimberly and Mason threw me at first with the hostility…I mean, […]

Girls Love Travis Walker by Anne Pfeffer

Girls Love Travis Walker by Anne Pfeffer

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — In some ways I think the blurb for this book does it an injustice. It evoked way more emotions from me than I was expecting…I guess I really thought it was gonna be more fluffy….but then again rereading the blurb it does mention what Travis is going through, so it […]
