𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• enemies to lovers • brother’s best friend • forced proximity • second chances • death/grief • Not only the writing did not have me invested or evoke any emotions from me but I also could not stand Maddie. Her immaturity and rude behavior were really off-putting. This book had great potential to deliver a heartfelt story but the wasn’t doing anything for me. “I got so focused on always seeking out new experiences, I forgot how good a classic could be.” Maddie Sanderson would be proud to honor her older brother’s dying wish, that she scatters his ashes over eight destinations that the adventurous 29-year-old never got to visit before…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• an autobiographical novel •  When you read a Sophie Kinsella’s book you expect to read a RomCom, right?! You expect happy endings and laugh out loud moments. What you certainly don’t expect is to be taking it through an emotional ride on a Splash Mountain at Disneyland. I was sobbing when I finish this book. Sophie Kinsella is the reason I’ve become a book lover. Specially of romcoms. Thank you Sophie for sharing your story. And thank you for being this amazing!  “Write the book you would like to read yourself. Visualize going into a bookshop and finding the perfect book. The book you would buy immediately. What does it look like?…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• suspense • enemies to lovers • grumpy vs sunshine • mystery • friends with benefits • found family • force proximity •   I don’t know, Catherine Cowles’ writing just feels formulaic to me. I can’t feel the emotion coming out through the pages. It’s hard to connect with the characters. The chemistry feels forced. The dialogues are overly cliched!  Also, the suspense and mystery here didn’t hold my attention. So uneventful!  But hey! don’t let my review sway you from giving it a go. I’m clearly the minority here.   “It’s a bad idea,” I rasped. “We’d be playing with fire.” Those ocean eyes sparked. “Then let’s watch it…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• love triangle • insta-love • mystery • action packed • soul-stirring emotion • magical realism • life lessons • Water Moon was my first jump into Japanese fiction, and to be honest was unlike anything I have read before. The romance was lackluster, being brutally honest, but the scenery and the world building was what really made this book stand out for me. All the magical elements present, such as the birds formed by a person’s regret, pearls that can hold one’s memories, puddles that can take you to other places and that time is apparently something that can be traded or brought was fascinating to read. Thank you @librofm…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• rivals to lovers • reversed age gap • single mom • second chance at love• mature characters • only one-bed • low steam  • workplace • There is so much that I enjoyed about this book. The humor was fun and the romance was sweet and believable. The subject of handling a divorce with children and new partners was written in a very realistic way.  Anna growth was what I liked best in this book. I loved seeing her gaining confidence in her job and with her ex, and also finding love after the divorce. The miscommunication between the main characters did frustrate me a little sometimes but not enough to…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• dark fantasy • fated mates • enemies to lovers • fae, vampires, witches, humans • top tier banter • tension • possessive hero • stubborn, bad*as heroine • medium burn • I’m not sure how to even go about writing this review. There’s lots I want to say, but when a book has blown you away, it’s very hard to put feelings into words. Words feel simple into the magnitude of everything you are feeling. It seems like nothing you come up with will convey the level of awesomeness you just experienced, and every expression seems lacking somehow. So, lamely I will say this: Wow! As in W-O-W! To say…

⋆✴︎˚｡ Audiobook free on Kindle Unlimited ⋆✴︎˚｡ 𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• single mom • neighbors to lovers • grumpy vs sunshine • small town • I love adriana Locke but unfortunately I found this book a little dull. There were a lot of sweet moments, but it was a little slow and uneventful.  I needed more build up between them to really feel their connection and to add more fire, more passion, just more to the overall story. When Gabrielle Solomon falls, she falls hard. Even if that means literally toppling over a porch railing in nothing but a flimsy towel—right in front of her sexy new neighbor. Jay Stetson is 100 percent hero…

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• Christmas • forced proximity • praise kink • brother’s best friend • insta-love • I actually enjoyed this book, it was sweet and refreshing. The tension was really good. I just didn’t enjoy the ‘Mac ‘n’ Please’ chapters. They felt unnecessary and interrupted the flow of the story. I also think there was maybe a little too much smut, but that is a personal taste. Overall, it was a cute holiday read.  I liked the characters and the storyline. ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 1 in the Snowbound Secrets Series. Each one can be read as a complete standalone.

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉: • friends to lovers • Christmas • fake relationship • small town • I’m sorry I tried to get those sleigh bells ringlinging ting ting tingling too but this was very slow moving and not very interesting either. Read 60% of the book and I still hadn’t smiled, or laughed, or snowed. I finally decided to throw in the towel and pick something else to read.  ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 2 in the Fitzpatrick Christmas Series. Each one can be read as a complete standalone.

𝒞𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉:• sports romance • hockey • coming of age • fake dating • friends to lovers • it’s always been you • It was good but I expected something more romantic. These two were never in a relationship, only hookups, until the end of the book. Although, I loved the fact that they didn’t sleep with anyone else but them two.  This book starts as YA, but it spans several years, so I would categorize it more as a new adult romance. A lot can happen on a two-week trip to the Canadian wilderness. Auden Harmon learns her parents’ marriage is officially over. Expected. Accidentally gifts a five-hundred-dollar pen to a stranger. Unexpected. Neither…
