My thoughts… This is going to be a short review. I really liked this book. It’s the first book by this author that I’ve read and I wasn’t real sure what to expect. I’d read a few reviews and one of the things that piqued my interest was that reviewers and readers were talking about the letters that Eric wrote to Annie. With those letters in mind I dove right in. I loved the main […]
I think it’s time to put the Colorado Mountain series to bed, because Jagged and Kaleidoscope aren’t anywhere near as good as the first four books in this series. They’re seriously lacking the suspense and the “OMGWTF is happening?” moments of the previous 4 books in this series. While I did like Kaleidoscope better than Jagged, it still pales in comparison to the rest of the series. I’m wondering if Kristen thought since Emme already […]
I was in a poetry rut. Shakespeare, Keats, Wordsworth and Wadsworth, Hesse, Byron, The Brownings: I was familiar with them all on a quotable level. I needed a new poetic fix and ended up running my index finger along the spines of paperback books in the poetry section at a Barnes and Noble store in Austin, Texas. Edna St. Vincent Millay. It was that name that made me pause. There was just something about it. […]
My thoughts… Oh man…Wow… This novella – not sure it’s actually novella since it’s 63 pages, but anyway. This novella is Part One in the Reasonable Doubt series and It. Is. HOT! Seriously. I’m not gonna lie. I was blushing. Normally I like to wait until a series is complete before reading it, but after reading the reviews I knew I had to read it immediately. Did you read the synopsis up above? No? Okay, […]
My thoughts… Hmm I’m trying to find the right words for this review. I’m going to be brutally honest here. I absolutely loathed Natalie in the beginning of this book. She was a complete bitch. She was always so negative. She acted like her kids were a burden to her. And she was very selfish. Once I got past my initial feelings for her (about 1/3 of the way in) I really enjoyed this book. […]
There’s nothing like meeting the man of your dreams…. at a doll store. Caymen Meyers lives above and works in a porcelain-doll store owned by her mother, tucked away in quiet, wealthy town. In RL we all know that anyone that lives and works with creepy dolls would be possessed or psychotic, but this is fiction so Caymen is a smart, down-to-earth, functional young lady. She has an extremely dry and sarcastic sense of humor. […]
My thoughts… This story is beautifully written, highly emotional, and completely captivating. I loved it so much. The plot is unique and the story captured my attention from the very first page. I love reading stories that draw me in and don’t let go like this one did. It’s truly mesmerizing. The characters are rich with emotions and I thought both Blue & Wilson were interesting characters. I really enjoyed getting to know them. Blue […]
WARNING: Do not attempt to start this book at night before you go to bed. If you do, YOU WILL BE UP ALL NIGHT LONG. This book will not allow you to put it down once you start reading. This book is about a girl who finds herself wandering down a road covered in blood. She doesn’t have any clue as to where she’s at, why she’s there and who she even is. She finds […]
My thoughts… First let me start off by saying that this book came highly recommended. I had heard so many great things about it. Ms Allred is a new to me author and truthfully I wasn’t sure what to expect. I can honestly say that I truly enjoyed reading it. The Sweet Gum Tree has everything I’ve ever wanted in a romance book. A beautiful and well written love story. One that touches my heart […]
I’m writing this short and sweet review because I received an ARC and I am required to. Erin already posted about WHK and you can check out her more in depth review here. You can check out my Psych Ward file on Jennifer here. I read Bitter Sweet Love and White Hot Kiss in one fell swoop. I fell in love with gargoyles in fiction last summer when I read Page Morgan’s The Beautiful and […]
My thoughts… Omigosh you guys! All the feels of this book. W-O-W! I can honestly tell you that this is one of my favorite reads of 2014. This book is an amazing. It’s a beautifully written love story with a unique storyline. Once I got started reading it I couldn’t put it down. I was able to start and finish it within a few short hours. I was completely entranced from the very first page. […]
You can find my review of Destiny (BKoD #3) here and a short interview I did with P.T. Michelle featured on Scriptland about self-publishing here. P.T. Michelle knows how to write romance. I have a problem with guys sprouting wings in books. It’s one of the main reasons why I didn’t get into the Fallen series by Lauren Kate. But P.T. Michelle does wings right! I LOVE the male MC, Ethan, in this series, wings and […]
My thoughts… I’ll be honest… I sort of went into this book blindly. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into it. A couple twitter pals recommended this book so I thought I’d give it a try. Things started off great. I was enjoying the first few chapters, but then things started to change for me. Clay started acting irrational and I had a hard time accepting his behavior. I’m hoping this isn’t to spoilerish, […]
My thoughts… Falling Under was a secret project written by the fabulous Jasinda Wilder. It’s the “unexpected” third book in the Falling series. I don’t think anyone was aware of this book until right before release day. I know I wasn’t. The main characters are Oz Hyde and Kylie Calloway. Kylie is the 17 year old daughter of Colt & Nell Calloway. Book one was their story in case you’re wondering, And Oz? Well… I […]
My thoughts… This is the first book by Author Sara Fawkes that I’ve read. I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this one, but the synopsis captured my attention and I couldn’t wait to get started reading it. I liked both of the main characters and some of the secondary characters. Lacey has had a rough life the last few years. After her father dies her mother packs herself, Lacey, and Lacey’s little brother […]
If I gave this book a rating strictly based on my enjoyment of the novel it would be closer to 3 stars. Unfortunately, I think I had a bad case of The Reader’s Curse while reading The Winner’s Curse. I read TWC about a week after reading Tsarina by J.Nell Patrick. These books have the same bones. I couldn’t help myself from comparing them while reading TWC. I decided to call my conundrum The Reader’s […]
So I was at Barnes & Noble trying to decide if I wanted to splurge on Tasarina or The Winner’s Curse and I couldn’t make up my mind because I had heard such great things about the latter. I decided to read the first few pages of both books to help me decide and ended up going with Tsarina. I can’t remember the first time I ever learned about the Romanov’s but I do remember […]
My thoughts… I could just SQUEE! I’ve been waiting for this one and it seems likes it’s taken forever for release day to get here. Finally though… It’s here!! This book was a highly emotional read for me. I teared up quite a few times while reading it. I love books like this one. Books that touch your heart. Maybe Someday did that and so much more. There are so many things I want to […]
My thoughts… Cupcakes and Ink is a novella written as a prequel to Clipped Wings. I only discovered it after I finished reading book one. While I wouldn’t say it’s mandatory you read it before book one, it does give you some insight of how things started out between the main characters.
My thoughts… Rewarded is the third and final novella in Torn Between Two Lovers series. I’m sort of sad this story is complete, but having said that I’m happy with how everything turned out. I’ve come to love the main characters and enjoyed reading their story. Rewarded offers not only a love triangle, but also a few twist and turns that will keep guessing as to what will happen next. There were a couple things […]
My thoughts… Risky starts up where Raw ended. If you read my review for Raw then you know it ended with a big cliffhanger. I’ve been eagerly waiting for this novella to be released. When Joaquin and Anna meet for the first time the sparks fly. There’s an instant attraction that’s very strong between the two. I’m sort of conflicted about their relationship. This series involves a love triangle. I knew this going in, but […]
