It's the holidays, which means it's time to dig into the winter and Christmas-themed books I've been holding onto all year. I started with We Met in December by Rosie Curtis...only to realize that what I meant to read was A Day in December by Josie Silver—whoops! I guess that one will have to wait … Continue reading Book Review: We Met in December

Book Review: Thank You For Listening
I have been counting down the days until I could get my hands on Julia Whelan's sophomore novel. My Oxford Year is one of my favourite books and I couldn't wait to see what Whelan was going to come out with next. When I read the synopsis and saw that it was a book about … Continue reading Book Review: Thank You For Listening
Book Review: The Right Swipe
Pulled from the archives of 2020 is The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai. I was never on any dating apps (I literally joined Tinder for a day and was both overwhelmed and terrified so deleted it right away), and luckily I found my husband (online, ironically) before all the variations became more popular, but I'm … Continue reading Book Review: The Right Swipe
Book Review: Opposite of Always
This is another book I read back in 2020, but this one has stuck with me a little bit more than the last. Opposite of Always by Justin A. Reynolds gave me time-travelling Groundhog Day vibes (but with YA stakes) that I've enjoyed before—and it didn't get past me that the characters' names were Jack … Continue reading Book Review: Opposite of Always
Book Review: The Duke and I (Bridgerton 1)
I know I'm not the only one who ran to a (digital) bookstore after watching Bridgerton on Netflix earlier this year, but as soon as the season ended, I needed to know more about Julia Quinn's now-famous Regency-era family, so I thought I'd dive straight into the books. For those who don't know, every book … Continue reading Book Review: The Duke and I (Bridgerton 1)
Book Review: Postscript
I didn't even know there was a sequel to Cecelia Ahern's P.S. I Love You until I was looking to stream the movie somewhere and went into a deep dive when I couldn't find it. I remember reading the first one just before the movie had come out, and it stuck with me, despite me … Continue reading Book Review: Postscript
Book Review: The Guest List
My hiatus ended up being a little more extended than originally planned, but I'm back and ready to tackle some great books that I've missed and that are coming out early next year, the first of which being The Guest List by Lucy Foley. I had stopped reading whodunnits and murder mysteries because I was … Continue reading Book Review: The Guest List
Book Review: The Dating Charade
I will admit I've been a little slower at the posting lately—sorry, everyone!—but as I write this I'm almost 32 weeks pregnant, and I'm finding it takes a very specific kind of story to keep me from falling asleep...and I'm having a harder and harder time finding the right plot. I was hoping The Dating … Continue reading Book Review: The Dating Charade
Book Review: 99 Percent Mine
I've been quietly anticipating the next installment of Sally Thorne's work ever since I read The Hating Game last year. I know I was a little late on picking it up (a friend recommended it to me when I asked about light beach-read-type books), but it was definitely one of my favourite reads from last … Continue reading Book Review: 99 Percent Mine
Book Review: My Oxford Year
Since I heard about the release of My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan this past year, I knew I had to read it. I spent a year studying in England myself, and I remember the trip we took to Oxford... the campus took my breath away. If I had decided to continue my education and get my … Continue reading Book Review: My Oxford Year
