4 stars — This book could have been a rounded up to 4.5 or even full 5 stars if it was trimmed by at least 25%. Honestly, I just got frustrated. Miscommunication is one of my least favourite tropes, but for a time I actually got it with Jacob and Briana — it made sense […]
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 […]
4.5 stars — This one just hit me in all the right spots. I loved that it was the perfect fat girl book for me, in that it was so realistic — a mix of struggles with being fat, and feeling positivity. I think I was in right from the author’s note at the start, b/c […]
4.5 stars — This review is going to be a bit all over the place…it happens sometimes, and sometimes it’s just too hard to wrangle my brain in order, so I leave it. Abby delighted me. She was wonderfully quirky and odd. I wish this story had been dual POV, but I suppose I can […]
4.5 stars — Quirky and fun and odd, but maybe a titch drawn out longer than I would have normally liked. This was a new narrator for me, and she was solid. She had a lot of qualities that reminded me of some of my favourite narrators — solid different voices, great pacing and emotions. […]
3.5 stars — Bummer. This one started off really strong and I stayed up late reading it the first night. But then I got tired of the schtik of the plot, and I just wanted things to be cleared up. Ah well. This had a bit of a Cyrano de Bergerac retelling feel to it […]

4.5 stars — I woke up in the middle of the night and could NOT get back to sleep, and so I started this book. And wow. It pulled me right in from the beginning. I feel like this is my most successful book by Ms. Sunday yet. I had so many feelings in my […]
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 […]
4.5 stars — Dudes, this book just gave me EVERYTHING! I felt the emotions, I laughed out loud too many times to count, and hooowwweeee did I feel the chemistry between Tempest and Cage! I’m not sure if listening made it even better, but I adored our narrators. Mr. Brinkley’s Cage was sexy AF, and […]
