A sweet second chance romance in these depressing times

The Love Feud by Janine Amesta

Disclaimer! This was an ARC from the author. My opinions are my own. Hailey Moreno thought it was quite exciting to be secretly dating the son of her family's company's chief rival, but once her father died, and said rival (with the help of his son) tried to offer to buy the Moreno's air balloon … [Read more]

Creepy kids! Drug addicts! Murder! Drawing!

Hidden Pictures by Jason Rekulak

by Leave a Comment

  How do you feel about kids who see ghosts? Generally, I don't love the creepy kid genre, but this book is more of a "haunted kid" vibe. He's not inherently creepy, but you know he's been through some things. Our main character is Mallory, who is a recovering drug addict. She's about … [Read more]

Back to the orcs, rattkins, and elves!!

Brigands and Breadknives (Legends and Lattes #2) by Travis Baldree

by Leave a Comment

So this is book two in the Legends and Lattes universe. I read book 1 first (shocker!), and then book 0, and then book 2. This was definitely the correct order! We met Viv and Tandree in the first book, along with the rest of the Legends and Lattes crew. Then we traveled back in time to Viv meeting … [Read more]

And Then There Was You by Sophie Cousens

And Then There Was You by Sophie Cousens

by 2 Comments

I really don't know what to say. Cousens let's you know the inspiration behind this book when she is done and she lets you know she struggled with this (yeah I can tell) and she's trying to have it both ways. This just had too many science fiction elements that were not well thought out and the … [Read more]

The Great Depression, a Road trip, and Giraffes?

West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge

by Leave a Comment

West with Giraffes was my book club’s February pick. I had also been hearing coworkers talk about this so it seemed only a matter of time before I read it. The publishers say the book is “part adventure, part historical saga, and part coming-of-age love story” and I think that’s a pretty accurate … [Read more]
