Review: Preservation by Kate Canterbary

Review: Preservation by Kate Canterbary

November 11, 2021 Angela Reviews, Romance

I just finished reading Before Girl—my first Kate Canterbary novel—and really enjoyed it. The author’s note at the end suggested reading this book to learn about Riley and Alex’s love story, and I’m so glad I chose to dive right in. Preservation was quite the tasty treat—so much so that I want to go back to the beginning of The Walshes series to enjoy the entire meal.




Audiobook Review: Getting Real by Emma Chase

Audiobook Review: Getting Real by Emma Chase

November 2, 2021 Angela Contemporary, Reviews, Romance

Getting Real is the third standalone in the Getting Some series and before I go any further, let me take a moment to bow down to the great narrator Zachary Webber. I always admire his vocal performances, but he takes it to the next level in this audiobook. The emotions, the clever distinctions between the characters, and the believability are *chef’s kiss*. Andi Arndt’s narration is excellent as well, but I found myself especially looking forward to Zachary’s chapters.
