A Big Surprise for Valentine’s Day by Jackie Lau

March 12, 2022 by carmelpie 1 Comment

You think he makes french toast for every booty call? And a strawberry garnish… He garnished your fucking breakfast? I found this series per CBR 14 reviews. I got the first three from the library then ended up buying the full set of four in digital format. These novellas follow the love lives of each of the Wong children over a period of time between Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day the following year. Each story takes place in Toronto, in the Wong siblings’ hometown of Mosquito […]

Welcome to the Jackie Lau Experience

The Professor Next Door by Jackie Lau

May 14, 2021 by Emmalita 3 Comments

At 2:15 this afternoon I posted in a discord chat: “I was surprised to get an arc of Jackie Lau’s newest, The Professor Next Door, this morning and now 3 1/2 hours later I have finished it, have a sore neck from reading without moving, and I wish I could gorge on cheese. I really liked the book.” The response was: “Welcome to the Jackie Lau experience.” Accurate. The Jackie Lau experience is a reliably enjoyable read, with excellent food and good sex. Anyway, I’m […]

Her Big City Neighbor (Cider Bar Sisters #1) by Jackie Lau

August 25, 2020 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

Jackie Lau has started a new series set in Toronto, the Cider Bar Sisters. The Cider Bar Sisters are a group of friends. Most of them met at the engineering program in college. I’m very excited about this series. I received an arc of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. Her Big City Neighbor introduces Amy to the Sisters. Amy inherits a house in Toronto and takes it as an opportunity to put some distance between herself and her small […]

I wouldn’t be sad if she stayed lost

Lost by Joy Fielding

May 4, 2020 by Wanderlustful Leave a Comment

Lost follows Cindy Carver, a 40-something divorced mom of two who lives in Toronto in the early 2000s.  When Cindy’s eldest daughter, aspiring actress Julia, doesn’t show up for her bridesmaid’s fitting, Cindy starts to worry.  Most of the rest of the book is Cindy’s amateur attempts to find Julia as she grows increasingly paranoid and sleep deprived.  There are occasional interludes where Cindy is spending time with her friends, her family (mother, sister, younger daughter), and her new romantic interest, but during all of […]
