I have really enjoyed re-reading some old faves this year and last year, and I want to start doing it more often. I made this challenge a couple years ago and never brought it back, but I really want to do it again for 2020! You’re welcome to participate, just please refer back here for credit. If you make a post, leave the link so I can check it out! My goal: At least 10 re-reads Books I want to […]
Anyone who knows me knows that I am not a fan of contemporary and I rarely read it. Actually, this was my first contemporary romance all year, oops. I needed a break from my High Fantasy rut (and reading slump) and this was just the book for it since it’s set at Christmastime!

CAUTION: SPOILERS FOR GODSGRAVE I am the war you cannot win. Holy SHIT. I basically sobbed through the last like quarter of this book, heh. This book wrecked my feels! Jay, you’ve done it yet again!! We all knew going in that Mia was going to die in the end. However, we didn’t know the deets, and I’m quite happy with how everything played out. It was bittersweet! “You kiss like you kill, Mia Corvere.” “And how’s that?” “With finesse.” […]
