I really apologize for being so late with my reviews. I'm almost through with my pregnancy and I'm hoping I'll have more time to actually write my thoughts down about what I'm reading when I have a bit of a slower time during maternity leave—but let's see! I did read this back in January, so … Continue reading Book Review: The Rival
I have been very bad at, well, lots of things lately. I'm in the third trimester of this pregnancy (surprise?), and I basically just want to sleep, which is impossible when you have a four-year-old. So I haven't read anything other than a few short holiday-themed novellas in a long time. Even this book I … Continue reading Book Review: Let’s Call A Truce
I'm not going to lie; I read this book almost two months ago and just haven't had the time to put together this review. I think it was a bit because I wasn't totally sure what to say about it—and I wanted to think about it. But then time just kept dragging on and the … Continue reading Book Review: How To Get A Life In Ten Dates
The last time I read a novel by Clare Gilmore, I gushed about it. Love Interest was one of my favourite reads of 2023. The characters were great, and the side characters added richness to the story and weren't distracting. It really gave me The Hating Game vibes, which is always a win. The follow-up … Continue reading Book Review: Perfect Fit
Erin Hahn now has a trilogy of sorts, that started with Shelby and Cam falling in love in Built To Last, then following Shelby's friend Lorelai falling in love with Craig in Friends Don't Fall In Love and now we finally have the last friend of the group, Marin, who is trying to find her … Continue reading Book Review: Catch and Keep
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
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
