I've never had my life together enough around the holidays to remember that this time of the year is my chance to read something Christmassy and actually feel the magic around me as well. Pair that with my favourite writing duo, Christina Lauren, and I had some pretty high expectations for their latest, In A … Continue reading Book Review: In A Holidaze
I am so excited that I found the time to read Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall. When it first came out this summer, I heard nothing but praise for it, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on a copy. I knew nothing about the story other than what I read in the synopsis, … Continue reading Book Review: Boyfriend Material
Having been in isolation for more than 60 days now (weird timing with having a newborn), I'm wanting to get through some of the hundreds of books in my TBR pile that I own instead of getting ARCs off NetGalley. I'm still not reading as much as I could be because I'm so dang tired, … Continue reading Book Review: Red, White & Royal Blue
From the synopsis of The Little Bookshop on the Seine by Rebecca Raisin, I was sold. It sounds a lot like The Holiday (one of my favourite Christmas movies with Kate Winslet and Cameron Dias), but with bookstores, which is so much more interesting! Who wouldn't want to run off to Paris to run a … Continue reading Book Review: The Little Bookshop on the Seine
Ah! I've officially fallen behind in my reviews. I'm going to try to make it my 2020 resolution to stay on top of it, but with the baby coming in 6-ish weeks, I can't promise I'll be great at it at the beginning. I will do my best! That being said, I was drawn to … Continue reading Book Review: Make Your Move
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
As much as I'm not the type of person who reads my horoscope religiously, I am someone who is married to the type of person who reads his horoscope every day. As far as I can tell, he doesn't base any major life decisions on what the stars are telling him, but I've learned a … Continue reading Book Review: Star-Crossed
When I saw the cover for Mercy Road by Ann Howard Creely on NetGalley, from the same publishing house that published one of my favourite books of this year, The Beantown Girls, I knew I had to read it. Instead of being about women helping during World War II, this one was about women ambulance … Continue reading Book Review: Mercy Road
By some weird coincidence, this is the third book in a row I've read by a Lauren, though this one is much more familiar to me, since I seem to devour anything Christina Lauren have written in a day or two. And their latest, Twice in a Blue Moon (out tomorrow, October 22), is no … Continue reading Book Review: Twice in a Blue Moon
When I saw that there was a romance novel about Cupid that was doing so well on Wattpad that they were publishing it, I was definitely intrigued. I mean, when that many people already love it, it has to be a good read! So I took a read of Lauren Palphreyman's novel (in stores October … Continue reading Book Review: Cupid’s Match
