I know I'm not the only one who ran to a (digital) bookstore after watching Bridgerton on Netflix earlier this year, but as soon as the season ended, I needed to know more about Julia Quinn's now-famous Regency-era family, so I thought I'd dive straight into the books. For those who don't know, every book … Continue reading Book Review: The Duke and I (Bridgerton 1)
I had heard a few months ago—heck it was probably a few years ago—that there was story out there about a mom hooking up with Harry Styles (or who was essentially Harry Styles), and it was getting a lot of buzz. At the time, I figured it was fan fiction and moved on. It wasn't … Continue reading Book Review: The Idea of You
Beth Corby's debut novel Where There's A Will was one of my favourite reads from 2019. It was unexpected, heart-warming, and took us on an amazing adventure. When I saw her follow-up story, Leave It To Fate (in stores February 4) was coming soon, I knew I had to read it. I was ready to … Continue reading Book Review: Leave It To Fate
I’ve read a lot of Christina Lauren this year—sue me! This has been a year where my favourite writing duo have had exactly what I've wanted to read: light, funny contemporary romance that will help me get through this horrid year. Josh + Hazel's Guide to Not Dating is one of their older books, but … Continue reading Book Review: Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating
Those of you who read my blog probably have no idea what I look like, but I'm a plus-sized woman. And to top it off, I'm one of those plus-sized women who has embraced the word "fat." I am fat, I have fat, and that's just the way it is. That's why I was so … Continue reading Book Review: One To Watch
The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary was getting a lot of buzz in my online bookclub when it first came out. At the time, I was drowning in ARCs that I was on deadline for, so I wasn't able to get to reading in right away. As I've mentioned, since being in the time of social … Continue reading Book Review: The Flatshare
I have never read anything by Colleen Hoover. I know. You should be shocked. I had actually never even heard of her until I started poking around the bookstagram community... and I don't know how I managed it. When I asked where a good place to start was, I was told It Ends With Us. … Continue reading Book Review: It Ends With Us
I was a little worried going into Things You Save in a Fire (in stores now!), because I had heard nothing but amazing things about it, and I had high expectations after reading How To Walk Away a couple of weeks ago. I knew I needed something to break the reading slump I've been in … Continue reading Book Review: Things You Save in a Fire
When I saw on NetGalley that there was a new Jill Mansell novel coming out, I didn't even read the synopsis before I requested it. And I was even more shocked when I got accepted. It is only then that I realized that Kiss is a new release, technically, but it is a reprint from … Continue reading Book Review: Kiss
It should come as no surprise that I hadn't read an Elin Hilderbrand novel until I picked up Summer of '69. And as soon as I started following what people were saying about it, I realized that, similar to when I read Jennifer Weiner's Mrs. Everything a few weeks ago, the style was not typical … Continue reading Book Review: Summer of ’69
