I am by no means a Katherine Center expert, but I have read half a dozen of her books and have usually found them enjoyable. Something I love about her process is that she usually chooses a career for one of the main characters that we get to learn a lot about, whether it's a … Continue reading Book Review: The Love Haters
Okay, so I am still very late in getting my reviews up. Get Lost With You by Sophie Sullivan came out before Valentine's Day, and I'm only getting to it now, around Easter weekend, but we have a new member of our family, and he's been waking me up every two hours to eat, so...hopefully I'm … Continue reading Book Review: Get Lost With You
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 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
Emma Lord has quickly become a must-read author for me. Though I have (accidentally, it seems) missed some of her novels, I still think about her debut novel Tweet Cute every so often—and actually I think about Begin Again, as well. She's a writer who clearly loves her characters and loves to make teens feel … Continue reading Book Review: The Getaway List
I know practically nothing about Bollywood, but that doesn't stop me from loving what little I know from pop culture. Between the dancing, the drama, the epic weddings...what isn't there to love? The synopsis for Arya Khanna's Bollywood Moment gave me Never Have I Ever vibes, and I definitely wanted to be transported into that … Continue reading Book Review: Arya Khanna’s Bollywood Moment
When I got denied this ARC in NetGalley, to say I was bummed was an understatement. For Carley Fortune's debut (and one of my favourite reads last year), Every Summer After, I got an early copy, but it became such a phenomenon—understandably—that I don't have enough clout for Meet Me At The Lake. Ha! But … Continue reading Book Review: Meet Me At The Lake
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
Since I read Things You Save in a Fire by Katherine Center almost four years ago (ah!), I've been so excited to read anything by the author. Her stories tend to be very different from one another, which is refreshing as a reader, so each story really feels new and not recycled. Center's latest, Hello … Continue reading Book Review: Hello Stranger
I have been enjoying the Amazon First Reads that feature Asian and Indian culture—I’ve been learning a lot. When I saw that The Direction of the Wind by Mansi Shah was about a pair of Indian women being transported to Paris, a city I am a little familiar with (and with a bit of a … Continue reading Book Review: The Direction of the Wind
