    Phoebe Berman’s Gonna Lose It by Brooke Averick

    I didn’t like the writing. It was incredibly boring and flat. The audiobook didn’t help much either. But as I say an audiobook can either enhance your experience with the book or it can ruin it for you. And this case it completely ruined it for me. I was annoyed the whole time.  Meet Phoebe Berman: despite being a hopeless romantic, she’s about to be a thirty-year-old virgin. With one month before her milestone birthday, she’s determined to finally lose it…if her own anxiety doesn’t slow her down. The can’t miss debut novel from podcaster and comedian Brooke Averick.

    The Someday Garden by Ashley Poston

    Sadly, this was not one of my favorites by this author. The story never fully grabbed me. The pacing didn’t help much. A third of the way in, I was still waiting for the story to find its footing. The main characters didn’t have much chemistry either. A bit boring I may say. Overall, a cute read about griefing and healing, it just doesn’t have the same magic The Seven Year Slip has for sure.  The new head gardener at the enchanting Lilymoor House stumbles upon a secret garden . . . with a mysterious man trapped inside, in the next magical novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Sounds Like…

    Bad Boy Era by Amy Daws

    ͟͟͞͞➳❥ SERIES: Mountain Men Matchmaker #4╰⪼ reads as standalone I used to love Amy Daws past books but I think she isn’t an author for me anymore. I don’t know if I’ve changed as a reader or if it her writing style that has changed. Either way, I just can’t connect with it anymore. I find her recent books very lacking and not funny at all.

Men used to go to war…  I have read three of this author’s book and found them all very cringey. I don’t think she is an author for me.

    So Old, So Young by Grant Ginder

    This book is so messy. Too many non-discript characters to remember. Some of them even have similar names. It was hard to keep who’s who’s, especially if you are with the audiobook. There is also no real point to the story. All I could think while reading this is when are we going to get to the story. None of the characters developed enough depth, to be honest. I was thoroughly disappointed by this book. Six Friends. Five Parties. Twenty Years… How did we get So Old, So Young? From Grant Ginder, the bestselling author of The People We Hate at the Wedding, comes a novel of impending millennial middle age that…

    Wolf.e by Paisley Hope

    ͟͟͞͞➳❥ SERIES: The Soldiers of Bedlam #1╰⪼ reads as standalone Just one of those dark romance books with way too much smut but lackluster storyline and no substance. definitely not a book for me.

    The Rulebreaker by Piper Rayne

    ͟͟͞͞➳❥ SERIES: The Dugout #3╰⪼ reads as standalone I really enjoyed the pinning and the angst between Penelope and Decker. I also enjoyed the therapy sessions between Decker and his brother Foster to sort out issues. It was a super cute read. But nothing really stood out for me. It was just an okay read.

    The Muse by Jewel E. Ann

    ͟͟͞͞➳❥ SERIES: The Chain of Lakes #2╰⪼ reads as standalone I know everyone loves this author. I was once that reader too but sadly it’s been harder and harder for me to connect with her writing.  Where are all the emotions??? The buildup??? The all the feels her stories usually gives??? The substance!!!??? Sorry, but I just couldn’t feel anything here.  I miss her old self. The author who wrote deeply stories and used to give all the feels. I think she needs to take more time to write her books. She’s been launching too many books a year and it’s losing the heart. I keep reading her in hopes…

    Please Don’t Go by E. Salvador

    ͟͟͞͞➳❥ SERIES: The Midnight Strike #1╰⪼ reads as standalone I did enjoy Josie and Daniel’s romance, and how caring Daniel was for Josie. But l also had some issues.  Considering how this book started and all the themes dealt, I genuinely expected more depth. Sadly, I couldn’t feel all the emotions in the writing. Also, some reviewers is calling this a slow burn but I disagree. I think their feelings one to another moved too fast, and their relationship felt too much like insta-love to me.  Another thing that is important to say is that although this book is classified as young adult, due to the main characters age and…
