#TBRChallenge ~ Cold Summer by Gwen Cole

***DNF @ 36%*** I really wanted to like this one. I even picked it as my TBR read for this month’s prompt. However it just isn’t working for me. Cold Summer by  is a contemporary romance with time travel mixed in. Told in dual POV, Kale’s struggles unfold as he begins to lose his grip on […]

Review: If You Ask Me by Libby Hubscher

Review: If You Ask Me by Libby Hubscher

Picking up this book, I expected a romantic comedy, and to some extent I got that. But I also got SO MUCH MORE. If You Ask Me by has a little something for everyone. I laughed, I cried, I got angry, and just in general felt all the emotions a book can make you feel. […]

Review: Blame It on the Brontes by Annie Sereno

Review: Blame It on the Brontes by Annie Sereno

Cute, but extremely predicable second-chance romance. Blame It on the Brontes by is about a woman who returns home to uncover the identity of an author who takes historical classics and turns them into highly-rated smut novels. I’ll be honest, I was intrigued by the premise of this story, however the execution fell through. The […]

Audio Review: Reputation by Lex Croucher

Audio Review: Reputation by Lex Croucher

One reviewer said that this book is “Mean Girls meets Bridgerton,” and I have never seen a more accurate description/comparison for a book. Reputation by is a Regency-era inspired book that reads more like a contemporary YA. I don’t typically read contemporary YA, though sometimes the drama is compelling enough to keep me engrossed as […]
