Sticking It to Cancer One Book at a Time

I liked all the parts of this but mildly disliked how they came together

Romantic Hero by Kirsty Greenwood

CBR Bingo: Repair, although I’m grumpy that most of it happened off-page Rec by Narfna! Longer review: I have a soft spot for all romance novels that take place in the UK now, especially those that happen in London–like this one does! Our main character lives in Bloomsbury, in a tiny studio (makes sense) that she can barely afford based off of her income writing a series of interconnected romance novels about a fictional Texan town and the adventures of a scrappy city girl who […]

This wasn’t a groundbreaking book. If you’ve ever […]

Right now I am on a zero dollar book budget, which isn’t that bad. I am reading things that I may have passed up on. Though now I am like, girl, get better taste in free books. “Big Sexy Love” could have been so much better. I think in the end too many absurd things were happening and Greenwood lost the plot.
