I am a huge fan of Naima Simone books, so when I got my copy of The Road to Rose Bend I was pumped, I dived into this book as soon as I could and OMG was it amazing. Sydney Collins is such as relatable character, she was compelling, funny, driven and someone you could […]

[Faiza’s Review] : The Nightborn (Stormbringer #2) by Isabel Cooper
This book had a strong prologue and introduced the main plot of the series but I had a hard time getting past the first 20% of the book. I felt like it dragged on a little, but after it the book picked up very fast. It follows the events of the first book in this […]
[Nadine’s Review]: Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter
“Enemies-to-lovers—it’s our trope, Buxbaum.” I ABSOLUTELY adored Painter’s cute as hell YA rom-com, Better Than the Movies!! It’s a rom-com about rom-com cliches, with two childhood frienemies, fake dating, lots of lol moments – what more could I have asked for?! Nothing. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I actually did and […]
[Portia’s Review: The Heartbreaker by Claire Contreras]
Eventually everyone will get tired of hearing me talk about how amazing Claire Contreras is, but I’m not going to stop. For those of you who don’t know, she is one of my will-read-anything-they write, favorite authors. So lets jump into her new release, The Heartbreaker. I don’t often venture into sports romance. It is […]
[Taylor’s Review]: Just Last Night by Mhairi McFarlane
Just Last Night by Mhairi McFarlane was not at all what I was expecting. I felt like I read two different books perfectly woven into one, both being acts that are tied to each other but could have existed apart from each other. I spent the first 150 pages reading through tears, and the back […]
[Skye’s Review]: People We Meet On Vacation by Emily Henry
Emily Henry is an auto-buy author for me. I fell in love with her writing when I read Beach Read last year. I’m sure you can imagine how excited I was when I was sent an arc of People We Meet On Vacation to read and review. People We Meet On Vacation has one of […]
{Emily’s Review}: Before I Saw You, By Emily Houghton
Alice Gunnersley and Alfie Mack sleep just a few feet apart from one another. They talk for hours every day. And they’ve never seen each other face-to-face.
After being in terrible accidents, the two now share the same ward as long-term residents of St. Francis’s Hospital. Although they don’t get off to the best start, the close quarters (and Alfie’s persistence to befriend everyone he meets) brings them closer together. Pretty soon no one can make Alice laugh as hard as Alfie does, and Alfie feels like he’s finally found a true confidante in Alice. Between their late night talks and inside jokes, something more than friendship begins to slowly blossom between them.
But as their conditions improve and the end of their stay draws closer, Alfie and Alice are forced to decide whether it’s worth continuing a relationship with someone who’s seen all of the worst parts of you, but never seen your actual face.
A tender novel of healing and hope, Before I Saw You reminds us that connections can be found even in the most unexpected of places—and that love is almost always blind.
[Shana’s Review]: The House Swap by Jo Lovett
Ok, the premise of “The House Swap” by Jo Lovett is darling!! Think, my favorite movie, “The Holiday”, but the love interests don’t meet in their vacation locales. They are the ones doing the swapping! It would make a great movie, so someone should really get on that, just sayin’. I will start by saying: […]
