My thoughts… This is the first book I’ve read by this author. It was on sale and it sounded like a good read so I snatched it up. I found the plot intriguing and once I started reading it I found that I liked the characters and the setting of the story. Poor Olivia gets cheated on by her fiancé and uproots herself and moves away to another state to start over. I really liked […]
My thoughts… Omigosh! I loved, loved, loved this book. It is amazing! The plot was phenomenal. The characters were rich with emotions. Once I got started I couldn’t out it down. It captivated me from the beginning and held my attention until the very end. This book is highly emotional. I cried snotty tears several times while reading it. It just touched my heart. Aundrea is a 21 year old woman who is battling cancer. […]
My thoughts… Wow! I finished this book up yesterday and had to process my thoughts about it over night. Honestly I can’t really talk about the plot much because I’m afraid anything I tell you about it will give something away. I can say that the plot is what I would consider unique. I’ve not read a book like this one before and I love stories like that. Those that are not overdone. Those that […]
My thoughts… Sadly I had to DNF this book. The plot for this story was really intriguing and I was really excited to start reading it. Not long after I started reading things started to go downhill though. I feel like the relationship between Ashlyn and “Logan” progressed too quickly. Ashlyn put herself at risk with him time and time again. Here we have a young man who has lost his memory, who is accused […]
I am a sucker for books where the girl gets the prince. I’ve also read Angie Stanton’s Jamieson Collection series and I enjoyed those books. When I saw this book on edelweiss and saw who the author was, I of course, had to request it. I started reading it and instantly disliked the female MC, Becca. The Male MC, Nikolai’s introduction to me wasn’t so hot either..but.. I powered through…. When I got to 14% […]
My review: I absolutely loved this story. It’s a beautiful love story about a 23 year old man who lost his immediate family at a young age and a woman who left her hometown after her father was killed. From the very beginning I was captivated by this book. It captured and held my attention until the very end. I loved both Archer and Bree. I thought they made a beautiful couple and I enjoyed […]
Sometimes authors CANNOT RESIST picking up a copy of their own book at their local bookstore. Yep. They wrote the darn book but they want to experience it again with fresh eyes, and pretend they are reading it for the first time. This psychological phenomenon leads these same authors to want to review their own books as well. The following is what happens when they do: In Which Victoria Scott Reviews […]
My thoughts… Oh Knox… I’ve been not so patiently waiting for your story. I found you to be really intriguing in the first book and so I couldn’t wait to get to know you. Let me start off by saying that I really liked this book. I liked the plot for this one and storyline held my attention until the very end. I didn’t find myself skimming all. There is a lot going on between […]
My thoughts… This is a very short read. A lot shorter then I thought it would be. I sort of feel like it was a filler novella. Nothing really stands out about it to me. It was more of the same storyline as the last book. Centered around Chris and his secrets. The title is fitting I think. I sort of feel this novella was unnecessary to the overall storyline. Behind Closed Doors (Inside Out, […]

My thoughts… I loved this one. Author Carey Heywood takes the reader on a journey around the world. The characters which are rich with emotions go to places like London, Beijing, Australia, and many others. It was fun learning about the different places they visited and experiencing it through the eyes of these characters. Speaking of characters… I really liked Aubrey and Adam. When you first meet Aubrey she is heartbroken. Her aunt is dying […]
At the theater, we bought popcorn, Milk Duds, and large sodas. After we settled in our seats in the crowded room, I opened the box of chocolate caramel confections and dumped them in the large tub. “Um,” Quinn said, scratching his chin. “Sweet and salty—it’ s a must-have for movie watching.” “Seriously?” “Yes, seriously.” I picked up a Milk Dud, flanked it with two pieces of popcorn, and then brought it to his lips. “Here. […]

My thoughts… I think this one is by far my favorite out of all the books and novellas so far. This novella takes the reader on a journey. You’ll get to experience Ellie’s take on her and Adams relationship from the time she first met him at a young 14 years old. I love the way this novella is written. It captured my attention on page one and held it until the very end. It’s […]
My thoughts… I loved this book! Ms Shalvis has written another great story that fits nicely into the Lucky Harbor series. In case you didn’ t know, the Lucky Harbor series is one of my favorite contemporary romance series. Each book not only features a hot alpha hero, but beautiful heroines to boot. Most of which are sassy in their own way. To say I love this series is an understatement. You can always count […]
My thoughts… I enjoyed this story for the most part. There were a few minors things that I didn’ t care for, but overall I enjoyed it. I found the plot to be intriguing and I couldn’ t wait to get started reading it. Once I got started I couldn’ t put it down. I was able to read it in a day which is pretty fast for me. I loved both main characters. Jase […]
I have reddish-brown hair and the palest skin that blushes fiercely, all the way from my chest to my forehead. Eden is our main chick and she shares her name with a couple of other things besides the title in this tale of time travel and romance. I found her to be a sensible and likable character; a fair skinned beauty who makes the same mistake most high school girls […]
My thoughts… A fellow blogger tweeted about how she loved this book so I decided to give it a try. A.L. Jackson is a new to me author so I wasn’ t really sure what to expect when I started reading it. When I read the synopsis I thought it had the potential to be a great read. I can honestly say that I’ m glad I gave this book a chance. I really enjoyed […]
When I started reading this book and saw that the mc, Violet, lives in Bozeman, Montana, I instantly thought of the episode of The Big Bang Theory where Sheldon relocates to Bozeman after having their apartment broken in to. I wondered if maybe the author saw this episode and decided to use it as her backdrop for her gnome series? This book has all kinds of things going on in it. From […]
Hair washing; it’s the new sex. There’s a shift in tone to Drop of Doubt. The first hundred pages had me nostalgic for the prior four books in this series, but nostalgia was quickly replaced with a strong desire to consume this installment down to the last drop. No doubt about it. Sang really comes into herself in this novel and acknowledges that she is more than her mother’s daughter. Sang is becoming a pro […]
My thoughts… I have been waiting, and waiting to read this book. When I noticed it on Netgalley and read the synopsis I knew I HAD to read it. I was happy that I got approved to read and review it. The is the first story by author Elizabeth Scott that I’ve read. This story captured my attention from beginning and held it until the very end. I didn’t skim through pages at all. I […]
