Part one of the book is really the best of the novel and saved it from being a 2 star read. Part two feels too one-sided and resolved the tension in an unsatisfactory way. I loved everything about part one! The tension and pining between Aphrodite and Evander was everything my heart wanted. Plus, Aphrodite’s […]
Wow! I’m shocked I hadn’t heard of this or read it before today because it’s right up my alley. I was pulled into all of this as soon as I read the “Fragment” prologue about god writing when he was happy and furious and then when he was really in a bad mood, he smashed […]
I definitely expected this to be a 4 or 5 star read as I usually rate Ashley Herring Blake’s books that high. But this one was a miss for me. I’m unsure what it was, whether it was the second-chance romance aspect or the holiday setting, but something was just not clicking. For the story […]
Okay, so this novel was a lot! The novel itself has many themes and ideas in it for only 300 pages from friendship to death to how to handle grief. It was also a lot because I wasn’t expecting my own past trauma with cancer to come rearing it’s ugly head. For starters, I absolutely […]
I definitely enjoyed this one more than Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake! I absolutely loved Isabel as a character. I thought she was so strong and independent, and her story was just so heart wrenching. Her character arc of learning to trust and love someone was so lovely to read. Isabel’s creation […]
Okay, for some reason I did not read these books “in order.” I know since the books are romances, reading them in order isn’t required, but I’m a weird little bean who likes to read them in order. But for this series, I bought Delilah Green Doesn’t Care before moving in with my grandma and […]
I was so excited to get my hands on You’re the Problem, It’s You! I absolutely loved Don’t Want You Like a Best Friend and couldn’t wait for this one. The story itself was lovely and played so well. James Demeroven was a young man who never wanted a title and just wanted to stay […]
Another book I read for a book club! I have actually never read or heard of Sarah MacLean, but I’m definitely interested in reading the other two books in this series. First off, I want to acknowledge the elephant in the room. I’m so tired of publishers not fitting the book covers with the actual […]
Before starting the review of this book, some background is needed. I first learned about Ms. Sayers through the undergrad class “The Oxford Christians.” The course covered material from G.K. Chesterson, J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Dorothy L. Sayers, and other contemporaries. I was super excited for the class mostly because we would be reading Tolkien’s […]
I had never heard of this book until someone put it in the suggestion box at the library I work at. I was interested in the story but wasn’t planning on reading it or anything. But then it arrived and on the first page of the book I saw that it was set in Abilene […]
