A pop culture junkie, Katie has an addiction to tragically bad romance novels. In addition, Katie is resolute in her belief that Evans is #BestChris and doesn't understand why people live where it snows. That shit is terrifying.

This ain’t lesser Outlander, okay???

Wyldwood: Book One by Tava Baird

by 1 Comment

I confess, when I was offered the chance at a free copy of Tava Baird’s Wyldwood: Book One in exchange for a fair review, I may have rolled my eyes a bit at the description. I TAKE IT BACK, OKAY? I take it back. It is a beautiful book, obviously a true labor of love. Love of history, love of magic, love of romance, love of culture. My default comparison to Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander Saga was not at all a fair one. Understandable maybe, but […]

A Very Special Christmas… or is it?

Tangled in Tinsel by Trilina Pucci

by Leave a Comment

If you have read any of the reviews I’ve posted over the last year or two, you’ve probably noticed that I’ve mentioned BookTok a good bit. Honestly, I probably spend more time scrolling through the clock app than any other form of social media right now. All of this is to preface where I’m going next: SmutTok, the part of BookTok that is for the people that like a *serious* amount of spice in their romance. As in, more pages are dedicated to sex than […]

Honestly, I don’t know where to start.

The Warlord Wants Forever by Kresley Cole

by Leave a Comment

That’s a lie. I know exactly where I should start. Seventh Grade, that’s where. It was the 1988-89 school year. I was attending a magnet school in New Orleans that went 7th-12th grade. It looked like a gothic art deco birthday cake surrounded by live oak trees. There was even a Catholic girls school across the street. Of course it was unairconditioned – the terrazzo floors were literally slimy much of the year. I’m not sure it gets much more New Orleans than that school. […]

What. Just. Happened.

Run Posy Run by Cate C. Wells

by 7 Comments

Run Posy Run by Cate C. Wells is perhaps the most unusual romance I’ve ever read. It is a dark Mafia romance available on Kindle Unlimited. I was having a video chat with Emmalita and of course our conversation turned to books for a while. She was recommending this author specifically for her writing, and then mentioned this book with a description that had me intrigued, puzzled and repulsed all at once. In addition, she said it was basically living rent free in her head, […]

Lumbersnacks Ahead

Owen by Elle M Drew

by Leave a Comment

Elle M. Drew has written a novel for which the plus size community has been yearning. OWEN is about a plus size female named Tess who loves sex and loves her body. Her weight is not something that needs to be overcome for her to find happiness. She has moved to a tiny, remote mountain town to do some soul searching at the encouragement of her cousin. Owen is an enormous bear of a man. I mean that quite literally since he’s a bear shifter. […]

Positivity and Inclusivity all around

Praise by Sara Cate

Eyes On Me by Sara Cate

Give Me More by Sara Cate

Mercy by Sara Cate

by 1 Comment

As has often been the case of late, BookTok steered me toward the Salacious Players Club series by Sara Cate. The recommendation I came across was actually for MERCY, the fourth installment in the series, but who starts at the end? In order, the series includes PRAISE, EYES ON ME, GIVE ME MORE, and MERCY. While they’re stand alones, you’ll enjoy them more if read in order as you do see characters from other installments in each book. When I say this recommendation came from […]
