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.

More satire, less romance

One to Watch by Kate Stayman-London

by Leave a Comment

While technically a romance, ONE TO WATCH by Kate Staymon-London is really more of a satire based on reality dating shows. I mean, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, just that I found the actual romance of the story to be the least interesting thing about it. Bea Schumacher is a plus-sized beauty and fashion blogger. One night after having way too many shots, she goes off on a rant about popular reality dating show Main Squeeze, specifically as it relates to the lack of […]

Spoiler Alert is in full effect

Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade

by 4 Comments

Do yourself a favor. Get thee to Amazon or your favorite bookstore and purchase Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade as soon as you can. It’s going to be one of your favorites and will absolutely be one of those books you read over and over. Or you’ll keep buying copies so you can loan it to more friends. I’ll admit it: I didn’t want to pay the $14 Kindle was asking, so when I read that they’re dropped the price to $4, I was like […]

The British are suffering staggering losses in their bombing campaign against the Nazis. They can’t figure out why. The Danish have surrendered without a fight to […]

Baby, it’s cold out there

WHITEOUT by Adriana Anders

by 1 Comment

It wasn’t until after I’d finished the romantic thriller WHITEOUT by Adriana Anders that I realized that it was by the same author that wrote Daddy Crush, which emmalita reviewed earlier this year. Just like that book was better than most in its sub-genre, so to is Whiteout. Y’all. I’m never leaving the Deep South. Whiteout just cemented my fear of snow and ice, not to mention my deep and abiding dislike of extreme cold. I’m not going to get into a lot of detail, […]

Luke 2:1-20 by God Almighty

by 4 Comments

Katie: Happy Holidays, dear readers! Today I’m coming to you solo with a special edition of our Bible Series: The Nativity Story. That’s right, today we’re going to be talking about Luke 2:1-20. Luke 2:1-3: In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while[a] Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register. Luke 2:4-7: So Joseph also went […]
