Pure comfort

Alpha by Audrey Faye

Heart by Audrey Faye

Rebel by Audrey Faye

December 21, 2022 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

Several people in my not Cannonball Read book community recommended Audrey Faye’s Ghost Mountain Wolf Shifter Series. I grabbed the first one from Kindle Unlimited and, as I do, opened it to read the first couple of pages. And then I kept going and read until 5 am. I immediately downloaded the rest of the series. Which may have been a mistake, but seriously, this series is a soft therapy session and pure comfort. While I was reading the series, there were a number of […]

A Fine Juggling Act With Nary a Dropped Ball in Sight.

Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell

October 28, 2022 by LittlePlat 5 Comments

I am really, really shocked at how much I liked this one! I think I have mentioned previously that I am not exactly one of the most broad readers of the romance genre, and I am not a super huge fan of the more contrived plots the genre follows. But here I am, writing up a review on a book that who’s main premise is a fake dating/arranged marriage scenario—and confessing that I really, really enjoyed it? I think what really got me on board with Winter’s […]

“Large groups of powerful men have little reason to make change.”

Heartbreaker by Sarah Maclean

October 7, 2022 by Malin 1 Comment

CBR14 Bingo: Heart (it’s right there in the title, and this is a romance) Adelaide Frampton was once the unappreciated daughter of one of the East End’s most notorious criminals, which led her to acquire a number of illegal skills that now come in handy as she frequents London’s high society posing as the unassuming and plain spinster cousin of a duchess. She uses her time on the sidelines of ballrooms and society events to observe and acquire information and can also put her top-notch […]

This book kicked me in the stomach, clubbed me over the head and said, “The end!”

The Storm of Echoes: The Mirror Visitor Book 4 by Christelle Dabos

September 19, 2022 by ElCicco 3 Comments

Cbr14bingo Heart — this book broke my heart and I’m angry Writing a review for this fourth and final installment in Christelle Dabos’ The Mirror Visitor series is going to be tough for a few reasons. All the story lines that have been set up in the previous books have to be resolved here and I’m not going to lie, things get super complicated and kinda weird. The other problem is that, having just finished the series, I am feeling emotionally drained. The author has […]

down to the wire (as always) – BOOK CLUB TIME!

All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas

September 16, 2022 by andtheIToldYouSos Leave a Comment

Why did I wait so long to read these two? This isn’t just a question of Book Club procrastination; this is a “what was I thinking?” moment! I had heard good things about both, I was enraged as ever when they (and others) showed up on lists of challenged and banned books, and they were both available on scribd! Also- why did I treat these books like homework? “oh man, I have to read these before I can move on to other things”- at the […]

Heartbreaking work on staggering loss

The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion

September 4, 2022 by Wanderlustful Leave a Comment

Joan Didion passed away in late December, 2021, which made the beginning of 2022 feel like the right time to read arguably her most famous book, The Year of Magical Thinking. The Year of Magical Thinking is a memoir on grief. On December 30, 2003, Didion and her husband, John Dunne, returned home from visiting their daughter, Quintana, in the hospital, where she was suffering from severe pneumonia. They fell into their usual evening pattern- starting the fire, making dinner- when John had a heart […]
