Book Reviews: Romance | Fantasy | Women's Fiction
A few months ago, I decided on a monthly book box I thought I could really get some use out of after doing some digging around to see what all was out there. I ended up going with Book of the Month, for one because I could choose the books they send me from month… Read More
The Bride Test by Helen Hoang Genre: Contemporary RomancePublisher: Berkley Book Release Date: May 7, 2019My Review: ★★★★★ The Bride Test by Helen Hoang was just as awesome as The Kiss Quotient. It was fantastic. What I loved about this book were the highly relatable and quirky characters. Khai is autistic, very routine and almost mechanical but very highly… Read More
The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren Genre: Contemporary RomancePublisher: Gallery Books Book Release Date: May 14, 2019My Review: ★★★★★ Absolutely loved this book. I loved the characters.

Here’s the thing… I’m only at 3% of this book; I’ve tried picking it up 3 times now and keep putting it down; I already don’t like the Hero. I’m legit ready to DNF this thing at only 3%, and that’s with this odd feeling of obligation that I need to be able to say… Read More

Second Nature by Nora Roberts Genre: Contemporary RomancePublisher: Silhouette Special ReleasesBook Release Date: Reissue Edition January 14, 2019My Review: ★★★★ This was a cute, enjoyable story – short and sweet.
