This isn't the first time I've mentioned this, but I really love anything having to do with space travel. I think being an astronaut would be the most fascinating job in the world, and I would love to see the world from their point of view. That's why I was so drawn to the cover … Continue reading Book Review: In The Quick
Beth Corby's debut novel Where There's A Will was one of my favourite reads from 2019. It was unexpected, heart-warming, and took us on an amazing adventure. When I saw her follow-up story, Leave It To Fate (in stores February 4) was coming soon, I knew I had to read it. I was ready to … Continue reading Book Review: Leave It To Fate
Some people who know me might be surprised to know that I've always wanted to go to Comic Con. My friend and I talked about going one year, but it's quite the trek to get from Toronto to San Diego, so we've never been able to get there. I wouldn't call myself strictly part of … Continue reading Book Review: Be Dazzled
I’ve read a lot of Christina Lauren this year—sue me! This has been a year where my favourite writing duo have had exactly what I've wanted to read: light, funny contemporary romance that will help me get through this horrid year. Josh + Hazel's Guide to Not Dating is one of their older books, but … Continue reading Book Review: Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating

I am fat, I have fat, and that's just the way it is. That's why I was so … Continue reading Book Review: One To Watch
I've never had my life together enough around the holidays to remember that this time of the year is my chance to read something Christmassy and actually feel the magic around me as well. Pair that with my favourite writing duo, Christina Lauren, and I had some pretty high expectations for their latest, In A … Continue reading Book Review: In A Holidaze
I am so excited that I found the time to read Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall. When it first came out this summer, I heard nothing but praise for it, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on a copy. I knew nothing about the story other than what I read in the synopsis, … Continue reading Book Review: Boyfriend Material
The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary was getting a lot of buzz in my online bookclub when it first came out. At the time, I was drowning in ARCs that I was on deadline for, so I wasn't able to get to reading in right away. As I've mentioned, since being in the time of social … Continue reading Book Review: The Flatshare
I remember hearing a story a few years back about a guy—from Toronto!—who was supposed to travel with is girlfriend, but they had broken up, so he was looking for someone with the same name to travel with him, since the tickets were non-transferable. I found someone, and they were going to document their trip … Continue reading Book Review: Field Notes on Love
Having been in isolation for more than 60 days now (weird timing with having a newborn), I'm wanting to get through some of the hundreds of books in my TBR pile that I own instead of getting ARCs off NetGalley. I'm still not reading as much as I could be because I'm so dang tired, … Continue reading Book Review: Red, White & Royal Blue
