This was one of my most anticipated 2023 releases, and it did NOT disappoint! I devoured this book within two days of starting it because I couldn’t put it down. “A steamy game of cat and mouse” indeed! If you know anything about me, you know that enemies to lovers is my favorite trope. And this is one of the best ones I’ve read in a long time! There’s so many ‘enemies to lovers’ books where they’re barely enemies, and […]

While this book didn’t necessarily stick with me, the concept was awesome! DRAGONADORS!! Like matadors, but with dragons! Fucking awesome, dude. It was unlike anything I’ve ever read before! I adored the dragon parts of this story and appreciated the Spanish culture, but the emotion was just not there for me. I would have liked to have connected to the characters and the story much more than I did. Especially considering there were dragons! The romance didn’t do it for […]

This book totally took me by surprise! I grabbed it at YALLfest because the cover and title were interesting and I knew Ross wrote YA fantasy, but I didn’t know much of anything about it. Then I found out it was Historical, and a romance. And I wasn’t so sure this would be a ‘me’ book. Imagine my shock when it was! This book was so unique, I’ve never read anything else like it! It started a bit slow, and […]

This book was quite a letdown for me. Not to say it was bad, but I think maybe my expectations were just too sky high going in. It was one of my most anticipated 2023 releases! Thankfully my library had the audiobook on Libby, so I didn’t waste any money/Audible credits on this book. It started off fairly strong. I love space books and stories set on other planets, so I was interested in the beginning. Sadly, my interest waned more […]

Wow, this book was so powerful! It takes a hard look at the relationships between women – at the empowerment of sisterhood, but also at the power that women have to tear each other down (and how patriarchy pits us against one another). That we are stronger together instead of against one another. It’s been a while since I read a dystopian I enjoyed this much! It had a very Lord of the Flies feel when we were seeing the […]

DNF @ 50% (second try) I give up. I gave it a valiant effort. I really did. The first time I made it right around the 100 page mark before I gave up from boredom. But, this book has a ridiculous amount of raving reviews, so I thought I’d give the audio a shot in hopes that it’d be better. It wasn’t. I wasn’t a fan of the narrator at ALL. He was SO boring! Some of the accents and […]
