It’s been a couple of months since my last review—which wasn’t intentional, but felt oddly fitting as I worked my way through this one. Emma Lord is usually a big win for me, particularly when it comes to her YA novels, which I’ve consistently liked a lot. That said, her step outside of YA with … Continue reading Book Review: For The Record
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
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
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
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
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
Alexis Hall has been writing books of different genres at a seemingly alarming rate. In my head, Boyfriend Material did not come out that long ago, but somehow, it's already been over three years. And there's a sequel called Husband Material that I have yet to have the chance to read. Not to mention A … Continue reading Book Review: 10 Things That Never Happened
This is officially the summer of the romantic comedy for me, and I'm definitely not complaining—especially when there's been such a strong showing from new writers or writers trying new genres. Love Interest (which will be in stores October 10; perfect for the holidays) is the debut novel by Clare Gilmore that takes place at … Continue reading Book Review: Love Interest
I have been hearing about The Roommate by Rosie Danan since it came out in 2020. One of my favourite book influencers says it's one of the sexiest books she's ever read—which is saying something. I'm not a big Harlequin romance reader, so generally, the books I read are pretty tame when it comes to … Continue reading Book Review: The Roommate
