Book Review – Every Little Thing by Samantha Young
April 4, 2017 by · Leave a Comment
Despite my issues with The One Real Thing, I wanted to read EVERY LITTLE THING because I really liked Bailey and Vaughn. Young created a decent backstory for this couple in first book and I couldn't wait to see where their relationship went, as it was seemingly full of ...
Audiobook Review – Idaho by Emily Ruskovich
March 14, 2017 by · 6 Comments
Emily Ruskovich's IDAHO is haunting, atmospheric, and heartbreaking, yet manages to leave you wanting more of its beauty. Rarely does a book leave me with this persistent feeling of loss upon finishing, but Idaho did. Through beautiful prose, strong character development, ...
Audiobook Review – Always by Sarah Jio
February 22, 2017 by · 4 Comments
Sarah Jio's ALWAYS is a second-chance romance and women's fiction hybrid that some may enjoy. Due to an abundance of plot holes, less-than-stellar writing, and melodrama galore, I far too many problems and I didn't like this book. Being as this is a women's fiction novel, ...

BEAUTIFUL was such a fun send off to the whole Beautiful series gang. My absolute favorite couple, Hanna and Will, were prominent characters in this one and I just had a blast reading (and later listening) to Beautiful from beginning to end. Jensen and Pippa are the two ...
Audiobook Review – What Light by Jay Asher
November 3, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Jay Asher's newest novel, WHAT LIGHT, offers a sweet romance about forgiveness and redemption with a charming premise, but it's not one that will be a literary holiday tradition for me. Every year, Sierra and her family travel from their hometown in Oregon to California ...
Audiobook Review – A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess
October 31, 2016 by · 4 Comments
Set in London during the Victorian era, A SHADOW BRIGHT AND BURNING is a decent beginning to Jessica Cluess's Kingdom on Fire series. While the characters and plot are both rather generic, the darker setting and bits of action pulled me in. Henrietta is thought to be the ...
Book Review – Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
October 5, 2016 by · 2 Comments
Crooked Kingdom was the book I was most looking forward to reading this year. The depth and edge-of-your-seat suspense that Leigh Bardugo delivered in Six of Crows was nearly absent in Crooked Kingdom. Uneven pacing and lack of character growth was Crooked ...
