Rule by Jay Crownover

Rule by Jay Crownover

    Love hate relationship. It’s something we hear about all the time when it comes to our fave movies, tv show’s and books of course. But I truly had that kind of a relationship with Rule. On the one hand I loved all the raw lust and feelings in general. On the other hand […]

Born of Illusion by Teri Brown

Born of Illusion by Teri Brown

I had such hope for Born of Illusion! With its interesting and unique premise and it’s drool worthy cover! Add in the fact that this book is set in the roaring 20’s and it should have been an easily enjoyable read. But it wasn’t. And I’m so lost on how a story with so much […]

The Sweetest Dark by Shana Abe

The Sweetest Dark by Shana Abe

So you know how I’ve been ranting on twitter about the complete lack of originality in today’s fiction? What do you mean you don’t follow me on twitter?! Of course you do! I mean, why wouldn’t you like to get constant awesome 140 charter length treats from me throughout the day? Anywho, I was ranting […]

Beautiful Stranger by Christina Lauren

Beautiful Stranger by Christina Lauren

3:28am. That’s what time I finished Beautiful Stranger. 4:02am. That’s when I finally stopped giggling and re-reading the last chapter to go to sleep. Yes I know; I have major issues. But Beautiful Stranger was more than worth the exhaustion I felt the next day, and the embarrassment of admitting that yes, I stroked the cover to […]

Torn by K.A. Robinson

Torn by K.A. Robinson

    Ah where does one start when it comes to reviewing a book that literally made me want to burn things? Torn was a story that I had high hopes for because a good friend of mine recommended it. And at first I actually really dug it. Even though the characters had the staple […]

The Marriage Merger by Jennifer Probst

The Marriage Merger by Jennifer Probst

    Let the sighs begin! So let me be honest here. I read the blurb for The Marriage Merger on NetGalley and hit request. No second guessing. No Goodreads research. No rushing to see if my friends had read it. I read the blurb hit submit and walked away. Then I was approved, saw that […]

The Art of Wishing by Lindsay Ribar

The Art of Wishing by Lindsay Ribar

Alright so technically this will not be a review. This will be more of me hoping that I’ve proved my worth and that you shall believe me when I say, yes the book was good, yes you should buy it, and yes I laughed….A LOT, but most importantly there is a GENIE! So umm go […]

Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire

Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire

One of the things I’m most grateful for as a book blogger is noticing my growth as a reader. Yes I know that your taste are meant to change and shift, but I truly didn’t notice how much my taste, likes, dislikes, pet peeves, and thoughts have changed over the past year or so since […]

Frigid by J. Lynn

Frigid by J. Lynn

  You know what? I’m really liking this New Adult phenom! And please don’t start with that New Adult vs. Adult mess here alright?! I don’t care what you call it, at the end of the day this new category within a genre is quickly becoming a favorite of mine, and Frigid is no exception. Now if you know me […]

Rush by Maya Banks

Rush by Maya Banks

  Let me start off by asking all those raving 5 star reviews on Goodreads a question: Did we read the same book? I get, and love, that everyone is entitled to their opinion and interpretation of a book but there is absolutely no way we could have read the same book! Where most people […]
