I love Kelley Armstrong. Her A Rip Through Time series is one of my favourites and her latest rom-com (yes, she wrote a rom-com) Finding Mr. Write is one of my best reads of the year so far. I know she writes a lot of dark stories (sometimes clearly in the realm of horror, sometimes … Continue reading Book Review: I’ll Be Waiting
I generally don't like books that are "slow burns." I find that either you get so much of the characters pining after each other without telling each other how they feel like it's just like, come on already, or that there is no chemistry and then all of a sudden these characters are together just … Continue reading Book Review: The Slowest Burn
Emma Lord is one of those authors who has a couple of books that I actually think about every so often. Tweet Cute was really, well, cute and Begin Again captured my heart. Heck, even Getaway List has a good premise that I enjoyed. When I saw that she was venturing out of YA and … Continue reading Book Review: The Break-Up Pact
The last time I read a Sariah Wilson book, it was an Amazon First Reads and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it because I usually find them disappointing. I was even more shocked to see Hypnotized By Love on the list a little while ago because it was yet again a book … Continue reading Book Review: Hypnotized by Love
In high school, I danced a lot. I was in the studio six days a week and also had singing lessons on one of those days. It was a lot, and it kept me busy. I enjoyed it but was lucky enough that my dance studio wasn't like Dance Moms. Sure, there were some not-great … Continue reading Book Review: The Real Deal
If you've been following me at all, you know I'm a big fan of Kelley Armstrong's. In fact, she's usually the writer I read to change it up and not read a light, funny romantic comedy (which is what I tend to pick up more than anything). When I saw that she was writing a … Continue reading Book Review: Finding Mr. Write
I have always loved the idea of being a screenwriter. I'm not really sure why because, contrary to writing this blog and my chosen career path, I don't really love writing all that much. I don't think I'm all that good at it. That being said, the thought of writing for TV fascinates me, and … Continue reading Book Review: The Rom-Commers
I watch a lot of reality television—almost a disgusting number of shows. And they're mostly competition shows, like The Amazing Race and Big Brother, or dating shows, like Love is Blind and The Ultimatum. So when I came across the premise for Christine Riccio's Attached at the Hip (Survivor mixed with The Bachelor?!), I was … Continue reading Book Review: Attached at the Hip
I love a series that doesn't start to lose steam once it's a few books in. So far, I've read Kelley Armstrong's A Rip Through Time as well as the second book in the series The Poisoner's Ring (and, actually, a novella that is book 2.5 in the series called Cocktails & Chloroform that I didn't review … Continue reading Book Review: Disturbing the Dead
If you've been following along with my reading journey, you've probably noticed that I read light romantic comedies or contemporary young adult stories more than anything. And yet, when I read the synopsis for The Ministry of Time, I was drawn in. Though I knew I should expect something outside of the box for me … Continue reading Book Review: The Ministry of Time
