A good read, but only if you can turn your brain all the way off

Beautiful by Christina Lauren

by Leave a Comment

This book is the last in the Beautiful series. I actually tried to get into it a long while ago and DNFd the first book for reasons I no longer remember. I’ve since read two Lauren books I’ve enjoyed (Unhoneymooners and Dating You Hating You) and another I DNFd (Roomies). So suffice to say Lauren is very hit and miss for me. This one is one of her highest rated books, so I deviated from my hard rule on chronology to see if I could […]

It’s tough to pull off a mass-puking scene in a romance novel, but apparently not impossible

The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

by Leave a Comment

My first introduction to Christina Lauren was Beautiful Bastard, a tome that I definitely did not love, and one that my fellow Cannonballers appear to also not love. But, I’m a sucker for an easy read, and The Unhoneymooners came pretty highly recommended, so I thought I’d give the duo another shot. And it was fine. In fact, it was pretty good. It’s not high literature, but sometimes you just want a goofy enemies to lovers hate romance with some pretty quality bow chica wow […]

  The Wild Seasons series by Christina Lauren is a 4-book series. I’m reviewing the first three, and won’t likely be reading on to the fourth. This in no way means that the first three aren’t great. Sweet Filthy Boy is the first in the series. Three childhood friends have just graduated college and take a weekend in Las Vegas to celebrate. Mia is the main protagonist of this installment. She has a distant relationship with her parents and is dreading moving to Boston in […]

The Distance Between Us by Kasie West

There's Something About Sweetie (Dimple and Rishi #2) by Sandhya Menon

Twice in a Blue Moon by Christina Lauren

by 1 Comment

Okay, Twice in a Blue Moon isn’t YA but it also wasn’t very good so I’m shoving it in here. These were all middling to fair kissing books — two chaste YA novels and one sexier (but really, not very good) adult novel. (3 stars) The Distance Between Us by Kasie West “A lot of people don’t get my humor. My mom calls it dry humor. I think that means “not funny,” but it also means I’m the only one who ever knows it’s a […]

You really do want to be careful with buffets – especially seafood

The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren

by 1 Comment

Olive Torres loves her twin sister Ami, but while her sister, the eternal winner has been able to finance her entire wedding through various contest winnings, Olive is eternally unlucky. The bridesmaid dress she’s going to have to wear is a truly luminous green monstrosity (but it was free!), she has just been laid off from her job, and the best man, who she’ll have to spend much of her sister wedding day alongside, is the groom’s brother, Ethan Thomas, probably Olive’s least favourite person […]
