At this point, Mazey Eddings is basically an auto-read for me. I’ve worked my way through Lizzie Blake's Best Mistake, The Plus One, and Late Bloomer, and while some landed better than others, I’ve come to expect a certain blend of big-hearted chaos, neurodivergent rep, and banter that somehow feels like therapy and foreplay at … Continue reading Book Review: Well, Actually
I know it feels like I basically only read Kelley Armstrong these days...and you wouldn't be wrong. I'm not sure how she churns out so many books in a year, but I love it, and I hope she keeps the books coming at this breakneck pace. Heck, I even just finished the first book in … Continue reading Book Review: Writing Mr. Wrong
Dahlia Adler is a writer that I've been coming back to for a few years now. Her books are by no means my favourite, but she usually writes strong, well-developed characters with great dialogue that I really enjoy. She also usually writes queer characters, which isn't the case here with Come As You Are, her … Continue reading Book Review: Come As You Are
We're back in Barry's Bay for a sequel to Carley Fortune's Every Summer After, which was one of my favourite reads of 2022. I was actually quite suprised I was chosen to recieve an ARC (yes, the review is still late...2025 is hard) because I got denied for Meet Me At The Lake, and arguably … Continue reading Book Review: One Golden Summer
Another very late review, but it's up nonetheless. You Between The Lines is from debut author Katie Naymon and I was drawn to read it because I was drawn to the fact that the main character seems to be a bit of a fish out of water when it comes to her MFA program—which is … Continue reading Book Review: You Between The Lines
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
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
