July 24, 2020 Angela First Line Friday

Happy Friday, book lovers! First Line Fridays is hosted by Hoarding Books. Today, I’m featuring Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover. It’s been years since I read this emotional book. I was looking forward to the movie adaptation and was super disappointed to learn the project fell through. I’m putting this on my TBRR (To Be Re-Read) list.



Review: Engagement and Espionage by Penny Reid

Review: Engagement and Espionage by Penny Reid

I’m a diehard Penny Reid fan. Her brainy, witty characters have charmed me more times than I can count, and I’m glad I can hang onto the ones carried over from the Winston Brothers series. Sadly, though, even Cletus (one of my favorite characters) couldn’t make Engagement and Espionage a big win for me. I guess I just expected more from the first book in this spinoff series.

Review: Charming Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie

Review: Charming Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie

July 13, 2020 Angela LGBTQ, Reviews, Romance

I confess I’m a huge fan of the Like Us series. I’m totally obsessed with the famous families and the entire team of colorful bodyguards that protect them. I’m bummed that Charming Like Us didn’t knock my romance-loving socks off, but I still enjoyed reading it. I guess I’m still coming down off my Maximoff and Farrow high from Headstrong Like Us. I’m starting to think no other couple can touch them.

Happy Friday, book lovers! First Line Fridays is hosted by Hoarding Books. Today, I’m featuring The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. I was moved by this book when I read it a couple years ago. It is especially relevant in the wake of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter protests in our country right now.
