It’s a Love Story by Annabel Monaghan
Content:꧁•⊹٭ rivals to lovers *·˚. insta love *·˚. summer romance *·˚. forced proximity ٭⊹•꧂ Sadly, I couldn’t connect with the characters and their story. Also, the pacing was a little slower than I prefer. I was so bored. I’m super bummed because I adored Annabel Monaghan but this book wasn’t for me. “I am so beautiful. I am so wanted. Inside this kiss I am all the things I have believed I am not.” From the USA Today bestselling author of Nora Goes Off Script, a novel about a former adolescent TV punchline who has left her awkwardness in the rearview mirror thanks to a fake-it-till-you-make-it mantra that has her on the cusp of success, until she…

Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid
Content:꧁•⊹٭ sapphic romance *·˚. character driven *·˚. astronomy *·˚. queer awakening *·˚. friends to lovers *·˚. workplace *·˚. astronauts *·˚. slow burn ٭⊹•꧂ This book started off slow. There was so much space science talking in the beginning that it took a bit for the story to really kick in for me. But once it did, I was super invested. The last third part was intensely compelling, raw, and SO beautiful. The ending was rather abruptly though, it left me wanting an epilogue to give me more closure. However, this author has a way of bringing out deep emotions in me, I should never doubt her, everything TJR touches is gold. 4.5 stars rounded…

I enjoyed the banter. They have good chemistry. But the pacing draaagged for me. A usual it was bit boring and it lacked a real conflict. I keep trying reading her in hopes to find the writing I fell in love with in Every Summer After, but I don’t think I ever will again.

Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood
Content:꧁•⊹٭ age gap ༊*·˚. brother’s best friend ༊*·˚. forced proximity ٭⊹•꧂ The book was SO boring. I also don’t think the dual timeline was well done. Specially if you are with the audiobook.

The One Before the One by Emma Cooper
Content:꧁•⊹٭ magical realism ༊*·˚. time travel ༊*·˚. mystery ༊*·˚. second chance ༊*·˚. paranormal ٭⊹•꧂ This is not your average love story, I would say it’s more mystery than romance, but damn! I completely devoured this book in one sitting! The premise is somewhat similar to Taylor Jenkins Reid’s One True Loves, but this book was its own unique story and stood on it’s own two feet. I loved the mix of time traveling with very realistic situations in this book. It added to the depth of the story. There were so many layers to this. The One Before the One it’s one of those books I’ll be thinking about for a very long…

It just seems like nothing was really happening with the plot, I almost DNF this but then the story picked up, I grew more invested in the characters, especially the gargoyle…🥹 I did not think I could love a side character as much as I loved this one, but here we are! I am absolutely sure that fantasy lovers will love this book. It was unique and extremely well written. The world building was rich and immersive. I just wish there were…

The Love Haters by Katherine Center
Content:꧁•⊹٭ forced proximity ༊*·˚. men in uniform ༊*·˚. summer reads ٭⊹•꧂ This book started off slow and was hard to get into at first, but then it picked up. The characters and witty banter were fun and I was enjoying it, but then comes the part of the book involving Cole and his lies and everything was ruined for me. It felt unrealistic and so unnecessary to the story. I just wanted to get to the HEA. It’s a thin line between love and love-hating. Katie Vaughn has been burned by love in the past—now she may be lighting her career on fire. She has two choices: wait to get laid off…

Such a lovable goofball, who was always looking for the right girl, had the perfect song choice, the perfect advice when needed and now we all know why!🥹it was so worth the waiting. The only reason this was all the stars for me is because I think the story dragged a little towards the…
