I decided to pick this up audiobook because so many of my fellow readers loved this book hard. I can see why LOVE AND OTHER WORDS connected with so many readers, but I didn't entirely feel the same level of adoration to the story as a whole. Through past/present ...
Audiobook Review – Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren
Book Review – The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang
Helen Hoang's charming debut, THE KISS QUOTIENT, killed my hopes of a productive Saturday. I had such a blast reading Michael and Stella's steamy and heartfelt love story. The hero is so swoony and I couldn't help but love watching Stella stumble unexpectedly in love. Such a ...
Book Review – The One You Can’t Forget by Roni Loren
THE ONE YOU CAN'T FORGET had me from the first chapter. This romance features a couple with great banter and lots of sexiness as they find their way to love through their own pain. I wasn't a huge fan of the first book in this series of interconnected stand-alones, but I ...
Audiobook Review – The Ones Who Got Away by Roni Loren
A shared tragedy brings two former lovers together again twelve years later in Roni Loren's THE ONES WHO GOT AWAY. This is a sexy romance that delves into timely heavy subjects, but my overall impression of the book was that it was just okay. As teens, Finn and Liv kept ...
Book Review – Little Do We Know by Tamara Ireland Stone
When I read this book I was neck-deep in new house projects. I hadn't physically read a book in what felt like forever (*tears*), often opting for audiobooks that I could listen to while painting an endless amount of ceilings and walls. With LITTLE DO WE KNOW, I was ...
Book Review – Our Kind of Cruelty by Araminta Hall
What happens when love turns to obsession? Through the eyes of a delusional male lead, Araminta Hall explores a complicated relationship that delves into dark corners. Disturbing and dark, I enjoyed reading this well-written thriller because of Mikey's sometimes terrifying ...
Audiobook Review – The Idea of You by Robinne Lee
Robinne Lee pens a May-December romance that left me crawling to the end and wondering how this all will work out. Will it work out? Even though I wasn't as invested in the love story (and I knew the ending due to a friend accidentally spoiling it for me), I can empathize ...
Book Review – This Love Story Will Self-Destruct by Leslie Cohen
THIS LOVE STORY WILL SELF-DESTRUCT is an all-consuming read. Leslie Cohen's debut rendered me completely useless on a snowy Sunday in April (yes, April. Spring is drunk). This book had the perfect balance of funny and light-hearted moments with depth and emotion. Highly ...
Audiobook Review – Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney
When I read the tagline for this book last year, I knew I HAD to read SOMETIMES I LIE! Check it out: "My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know: 1. I'm in a coma. 2. My husband doesn't love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie." This slow-building ...
Audiobook Review – Forever Right Now by Emma Scott
Finding love in the midst of a personal rediscovery is the central theme of Emma Scott's Forever Right Now. It tells Darlene's story, who, from what I understand, was in Scott's The Butterfly Project. As someone who hasn't read that book from her, I was able to jump right ...
