Hell Bent by Calista Lynne
This novella was a wild ride This book feels like the dreams one gets sometimes after a very long day or too much alcohol at a party. I’d say nightmare but it’s too funny for that. It’s funny-melancholy though, not laugh-out-loud funny. Jules is everything a seventeen-year-old is, or can be, and that in itself […]
A Whisper of Solace by Milena McKay
Another gorgeous read by Milena McKay If you thought Milena McKay wrote meaningful and clever (and really hot) books, you were off the mark. Not entirely wrong but there’s so much more to her writing than that, which she reveals book after book, slowly, patiently. Just as she went one step further with The Headmistress […]
Ophelia After All by Racquel Marie
This YA book was a great read 4.50 Stars. This book! While I go into every book hopeful, this book was much better than I ever expected. I just had one of my worst book slumps in over a decade and this was the book that played a big role in getting me out of […]
Ophelia After All by Racquel Marie, narrated by Maria Liatis
A delightful and heartwarming YA debut I went into this book hoping I’d enjoy it. I didn’t expect to love it this much. I do not know whether it’s perfect and I really don’t care if it isn’t. I love what it made me feel. I love the characters. I super love Ophelia, how could […]
Girl Island by Kate Castle
Beware of teenage girls I read this whole story in a shroud of constant trepidation. I don’t know how to say it in a way that doesn’t make it sound like it’s a bad thing because it’s really not. I knew what I was getting into (overall). It’s written on the cover, Mean Girls (which […]
Sprinkled in the Stars by Violet Morley, narrated by Abby Craden
A romance with an ice queen and a very cute kid I’m not sure why this author has escaped my lesfic radar until now since she’s written two books already, this being her impressive debut. I have to admit that probably I wouldn’t have read this book anytime soon if the audiobook version wasn’t narrated […]
No Strings by Lucy Bexley
A sweet and quirky rom-com with puppets If I ever have to work for someone again, I want Jones Haelstrom to be my boss. Jones’ father just died and her life is upside down. Instead of flying back to L.A. promptly, as she’d planned, she’s stuck in New York, as the acting CEO of her […]
On the Rocks by Georgia Beers, narrated by AJ Ferrarro
I’m hooked on this series from the start This is book 2 in the Swizzle Stick Romance series which features three cousins from a big Italian family: Julia, Vanessa, and Amelia Martini. Despite the three cousins being different in age and personalities, they are close like a group of friends or sisters. Julia, the protagonist […]
On the Rocks by Georgia Beers
A read with a lot of light-hearted warm and fuzzy moments I did not read the first book in this Swizzle Stick Romance series but didn’t feel like I was that far behind understanding cousin Vanessa’s story without reading Julia’s story first. The three Martini cousins act as a support system for each other and […]
