This book was not what I expected it to be. It was so much more. As we go through the story of Amelia and her life without Jenna the author shows the true sides of what it’s like to struggle with mental illness, to struggle with the death of a loved one. On many occasions […]

[Chelsea’s Review]: The Last Goodbye by Fiona Lucas
This will be a spoiler-free review. I was instantly drawn to this book from the moment I read the synopsis and saw the comparisons to both Josie Silver and Jojo Moyes, who write beautifully heart-wrenching books. After reading this book, I can tell you that The Last Goodbye is just as beautifully written. I knew […]
[Marie’s Review]: A Pho Love Story by Loan Le
I will pretty much jump at any chance to read a book written with and for the Vietnamese American experience and A Pho Love Story is no exception. This romantic comedy is a cute twist on the Romeo & Juliet trope – if Romeo and Juliet were Vietnamese American young adults whose parents own rival […]
[Skye’s Review]: Winter’s Orbit by Everina Maxwell
As soon as I read the synopsis of this book, I was sold. It’s pitched as Red, White, and Royal Blue in space. Need I say more? Red, White and Royal Blue is one of my favorite books! I couldn’t wait to devour this book. Sigh Things didn’t go quite as I imagined. For the […]

[Lisa’s Review]: Elixir (Covenant 3.5) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Elixir is a Covenant Novella from Aiden’s perspective, bridging the third and fourth books in the series, Deity and Apollyon. If you have not read Deity yet, do not read this review. If you’re like me and have been dying for scenes in Aiden’s point of view since the very beginning, this one is the […]
[Skye’s Review:] Unchosen by Katharyn Blair
This book takes the chosen one trope and flips it on its head. Charlotte has always felt ordinary. There’s nothing unique or impressive about her, not like her sisters. Harlow, her older sister, is a phenomenal singer and musician. Vanessa, her younger sister, is an incredibly talented gymnast. Then, once the Crimson arrives, her sisters […]
[Diane’s Review]: Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Take Me To The Highlands!! Scotland present day – A beautiful place. Scotland in 1743 – Maybe not so much. Content Warning and Possible Triggers: Rape, Abuse, Death. After many years I decided to finally pick up Outlander. I have absolutely no regrets. This book was beautiful, brutal, and eye opening to the times. While […]
