WHATEVER LIFE THROWS AT YOU is a young adult contemporary romance that takes place in Kansas City and centers around the Royals baseball team. This is an addictive, sports romance with a forbidden element that I had a hard time putting down, but longed for a more involved ...

Audiobook Review – Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren
June 12, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
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 ...
Book Review – Craving by Helen Hardt
April 30, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
Work has been really crazy for me, so I've been on the hunt for quick, mindless romances to read. I remember seeing this series all over the place—on social media, advertisements on prominent bloggers' websites. I thought with so many popular bloggers essentially endorsing ...
Book Review – This Love Story Will Self-Destruct by Leslie Cohen
April 25, 2018 by · Leave a Comment
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 ...

January 26, 2018 by · 2 Comments
One of the signs of a great book is how it affects you emotionally. When I say that, I don't mean that it makes you cry necessarily but rather how invested you are in the characters and their journeys. With DANCING ON BROKEN GLASS, I felt everything. I rejoiced with Lucy and ...

REDEEMING LOVE is a powerful love story between a former prostitute and a farmer but it's also an allegory of God's love. This retelling of the Book of Hosea is set during the height of the Gold Rush. Emotional, heart-wrenching, and rich in love, this story captured my heart ...
Book Review – Sugar Daddy by Lisa Kleypas
December 20, 2017 by · Leave a Comment
Lisa Kleypas's contemporary romance debut, SUGAR DADDY, is a blend of a coming-of-age story and a love story. Liberty Jones's voice is charming and I felt immediately connected to her and her story from page one. Though, I felt frustrated with how the romance (or should I ...

Stephanie Perkins moves away from contemporary young adult romance in the horror-like story of a small town terrorized by a serial killer. THERE'S SOMEONE INSIDE YOUR HOUSE has several suspenseful moments, but when it comes to finding out why this person was slaughtering ...
