Audiobook Review: Law Man by Kristen Ashley

Audiobook Review: Law Man by Kristen Ashley

I’m a total rebel. I’m reading this series out of order. Shhh. Here’s what I’ve discovered about Kristen Ashley’s books based on the limited number I’ve read. Kristen writes long-ass books. She takes her time weaving intricate stories, establishing the complexities of unique characters, and delving into ever evolving relationships. That can make for some stellar reading, but a 500 page book requires a lot of dedication. In the case of Law Man, the payoff is worth it.

November 9, 2016 Angela Wrap Up

I’m posting That’s a Wrap later than I’d hoped this month, but I still wanted to give you a recap of the books reviewed in October 2016. There were no 5 star books for me last month, but Beard Science by Penny Reid came awfully close.


Review, Excerpt & $100 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway ♥ Trust by Jana Aston

Review, Excerpt & $100 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway ♥ Trust by Jana Aston

Jana Aston just made my day. This story is so freaking cute that I giggled—actually giggled like a schoolgirl—my way through the first chapter of Trust. That led to full-out laughing out loud and swooning throughout the rest of the book. In the end, I wound up with sore cheeks from smiling so much. Chloe is absolutely adorkable. Her numerous dating disasters are cringe-worthy and hysterical. She takes the prize as the most socially awkward, anxiety-ridden, yet lovable character in recent memory. Like, we’re total besties now.

Adult coloring books are all the rage these days. Just in time for Christmas comes Love Between the Lines, a coloring book that appeals specifically to book lovers. Christina Collie of Christina Dooodles is known for her prints inspired by contemporary books written by traditionally published and indie romance authors.  Her illustrations in Love Between the Lines are so fun, and discovering the hidden images and words from books I’ve read is really entertaining.

November 5, 2016 Angela Reviews, Romance

Keepsake is the third standalone novel in the True North series. With each book I fall more and more in love with the Shipley family, life on the Shipley farm, the Shipleys’ friends—basically anything Shipley related. I’ve been curious about farmhand Zach, and now we finally get his story.

Review, Excerpt & Giveaway ♥ Fling by Jana Aston

Review, Excerpt & Giveaway ♥ Fling by Jana Aston

Let me preface this by saying I don’t read a lot of novellas. The length just doesn’t allow enough time to sufficiently develop characters, and the thin plots typically leave me feeling unsatisfied. It’s impossible for me to hold them to the same standards as full-length novels. That said, Fling is the first book I’ve read by Jana Aston, and if she can write a novella this entertaining I’m excited to read one of her full-length novels.
