Review: Space: Laws of Physics 2 by Penny Reid
After Motion left me hanging, I could not wait to get my hands on Space! The story picks up over two years later, and my how Abram and Mona have changed.

Addicted to You by Krista and Becca Ritchie is one really slow and incredibly angst-filled story. It is the first book in the Addicted series.
The Risk is the second book in the Briar U series, and I continue to be charmed by the sports romances set on an Ivy League college campus. The strength of the series so far seems to be its confident heroines who frequently outshine the hockey players.
I love Penny Reid’s humor. I love her odd, brilliant heroines. I love the men who dig their quirkiness. I. Loved. This. Book. What a great start to the series! I knew virtually nothing about Motion: Laws of Physics 1 going in, and I highly recommend that approach.
Yes, Left Drowning is a romance and yes, some parts are erotic, but it’s also a compelling story about loss, redemption, forgiveness, and the healing power of friendship. And while there is tragedy, it’s not depressing. In fact, there were moments when I found myself laughing out loud. The characters are so fully developed and real that I completely fell in love with the Shepherd clan. How could you not love Sabin & Estelle? The love story between Blythe & Christopher is truly moving. The book comes to a satisfying conclusion, but I was sad to let the story and the characters go.
Lovers Like Us is the second book in the Like Us series. There are even more characters involved this time around, but I think I finally have a good handle on who’s who. There are more conflicts and added suspense, including family drama, tabloid scandals, and a crazy stalker on the loose.
I just fell in love with a bisexual god named Maximoff Hale, a rich philanthropist who excels at everything. The man is fiercely devoted to and protective of every single member of his enormous family. Selflessly, Maximoff only indulges in one night stands, refusing to subject lovers to the public scrutiny a more serious romantic relationship with him would cause. He’s the perfect specimen. His hot tatted and pierced bodyguard, Farrow, is no slouch either.
Royally Yours radiates a classic romance charm that first drew me to the genre. The story is wonderfully tender, passionate, and whimsical, with a nice balance between fairy tale and realism. In other words, Emma Chase has another hit on her hands.
Dear Carter, My friends have been utterly captivated by your friends-to-lovers story so please believe me when I tell you that it’s not you, it’s me. I think you are the perfect book boyfriend, but your girlfriend, Arizona, is truly irritating. For someone who’s 24, she seems rather immature. I don’t know how you put up with her silly little lies. Rather than tell you she doesn’t want to see you she tells you she’s meeting a new friend – Betty Crocker. Really? I know you chuckle, but do you really find it endearing?
What a fun start to what I predict will be a winning series. I fell in love with Briar University and their hockey team in the Off-Campus series. Most of the players have graduated, so now is the perfect time for a fresh start with the new Briar U series.
I love L.J. Shen’s writing, but I’m afraid this The End Zone missed the mark for me. Let me start by saying that I don’t have the same expectations for novellas as I do for full-length novels. It’s extremely difficult to convey a well-rounded storyline with fully developed characters in under 150 pages.
Whitney G.’s books always put me in a good mood. Her trademark seems to be sexiness combined with a healthy amount comedy. I was looking for a quick fun story, and On a Tuesday fit the bill.
