Oh my. I won an ARC of this in a Goodreads giveaway and then got approved from Netgalley a few days later. I told myself to take my time reading it to share my review closer to release day. That didn’t happen in the slightest, and I read through the entire book in a little… Continue reading Wicked and Wild Things, Francesca May

Bright Ruined Things, Samantha Cohoe
Last year I read A Golden Fury and forgot to make notes while reading it because the storyline sucked me in. So when I saw Cohoe had a new book releasing, I raced to request an ARC. Yet again, Cohoe has sucked me in with a storyline so engaging that I made very few notes.… Continue reading Bright Ruined Things, Samantha Cohoe
The Next Wife, Kaira Rouda
I will skip my usual summary because this one has over 28k reviews on Amazon, which is impressive. This is a critical review because I feel lukewarm about the book. Sometimes I think books get too over-hyped. But I remind readers to stay objective to see if this will be right for them. The writing… Continue reading The Next Wife, Kaira Rouda
Crown City, John A. Heldt
In the last book of the Time Box series, the Lanes have landed in 1963. In sunny California, the Lanes could almost rest easy if they didn't have a madman intent on taking them out. They're worried Robert will send Silas after them yet again. They can't rest until they take down Robert and Janus… Continue reading Crown City, John A. Heldt
These Deadly Games, Diana Urban
I’m just going to hop into my review because I don’t know where to start. Crystal is a very unlikable character. She’s a pretty terrible person without the major storyline happening, and it baffles me that she has such a close-knit group of friends who put up with her. Things that seem so painfully obvious… Continue reading These Deadly Games, Diana Urban
Full Flight, Ashley Schumacher
After reading Amelia Unabridged last year, I knew I had to get my hands on an ARC of Full Flight. "I feel homesick for a place I've never been." When it comes to playing music, Weston knows what he wants. When it comes to life outside of band? His world has crumbled apart, and he's… Continue reading Full Flight, Ashley Schumacher
Truth Be Told, Kia Abdullah
“It’s okay to not be okay.” Kamran, a teenager at an elite boarding school, comes to Zara in an oft untold story. He’s been raped. He’s scared and doesn’t know if he’s doing the right thing. Being from a Muslim family, he’s unsure what his family will think. He fears his overbearing father. But he… Continue reading Truth Be Told, Kia Abdullah
The Last Thing He Told Me, Laura Dave
This one is so well reviewed I won’t summarize this as I usually do. I haven’t read Dave before, so I’m not sure if repeating sentences or parts of sentences is a known writing style of hers or if she wrote that way in this book for impact. Either way, I felt it was completely… Continue reading The Last Thing He Told Me, Laura Dave
Tripped by Love, LJ Evans
“You showed me a grace I hadn’t thought I deserved...” Sometimes you meet someone that you know something is there from the very start. But life, with its baggage and hurts, can stand in the way, stopping you from doing things that could enrich it. Cassidy has spent her life under the careful eye of… Continue reading Tripped by Love, LJ Evans
How to Love Your Neighbor, Sophie Sullivan
I was lukewarm with Sullivan’s first book, so when I agreed to review this, I hoped maybe it was a fluke. Sadly, it was not a fluke, and it’s clear this author isn’t right for me. I didn’t like Noah. He was chauvinistic and shocked that Grace had even an ounce of talent. Because surely,… Continue reading How to Love Your Neighbor, Sophie Sullivan
