Audiobook Review: Faking It by K. Bromberg
Well, Faking It was a tasty treat—a wonderfully light palate cleanser, if you will, after reading some seriously angst-filled books.
Mini Review: The Truth About Us by Aly Martinez

Favorite Books of 2018
2018 has flown by! I read just over 100 books this year and discovered so many fantastic stories. Here is my list of favorite books read in 2018, in no particular order.
Review: Becoming by Michelle Obama
I have always had great fondness for Michelle Obama due to her relatability, kindness, and intellect. After reading Becoming and the frank exploration of her life, I must say that I have an everlasting respect for this remarkable yet extraordinarily ordinary woman. The memoir is informative and inspirational, often challenging the reader to acknowledge obvious as well as covert inequities in our society—and to do something about them.
Review: The Truth About Lies by Aly Martinez
Ok, Aly Martinez. You got me. You got me good. I pride myself on being able to spot plot twists a mile away, but I should know by now that I’m no match for your clever mind.
Review ♥ Feeling Hot by Elle Kennedy
I’m going to give it to you straight: Feeling Hot is light on substance and extremely heavy on erotica. Some readers may be fine with 100% pure smut, but I need at least a semi-decent story to go along with my smut. This book meets the storyline requirement just fine, but you won’t find any great character development, suspense, or deep issues explored.
Review: Hate Notes by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
Hate Notes is an office-based enemies turned lovers story that delivers an entertaining mix of whimsy, feuding, and romance, with a whiff of mystery.
Sam’s Guest Review: Never Seduce a Scot by Maya Banks
Ugh, just some evidence of my tiny, hard, shriveled heart. I had some issues with this book, and none of them were necessarily the issues you’d expect from this type of set up. Everything was just so perfect.
Review: Across the Horizon by Aly Martinez
Across the Horizon is such a witty treat that I kept forgetting it was written by Aly Martinez, AKA the Dame of Doom, Sovereign of Suspense, and Matriarch of Mystery and Misery.
