Review: The Heart Principle by Helen Hoang
The Heart Principle is an exceptional story that is far deeper than I anticipated. It’s about the importance of loving yourself and using your voice.
Genre: Romance
Audiobook Review: My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan
When an audiobook is narrated by the author, one hopes it will be pretty good. I’m not sure if it’s due to Julia Whelan’s background as an actress or the fact that she wrote the words she speaks, but her narration of My Oxford Year is exceptional. She is so expressive that it is easy to get wrapped up in the story.
Audiobook Review: Underneath it All by Kate Canterbary
I’m fairly new to Kate Canterbary’s work, but I have thoroughly enjoyed everything I’ve read so far. I am surprised that Underneath it All fell so far short of my expectations.
Review: A Kiss for a Kiss by Helena Hunting
Single parent romances and surprise pregnancy tropes are my jam, and A Kiss for a Kiss combines both of these. The result was a little ambrosia for my bibliophilic taste buds.
Review: A Not So Meet Cute by Meghan Quinn
Gah! I loved this book so much! A Not So Meet Cute just may be my favorite Meghan Quinn book so far. It’s a hilarious enemies-to-lovers fake relationship story with a delicious slow burn and an uber hot payoff. I read it straight through.
Review: Boyfriend by Sarina Bowen
Boyfriend is pure entertainment packed into a quick read.
Review: Preservation by Kate Canterbary
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.
Review: A Love Letter to Whiskey: Fifth Anniversary Edition by Kandi Steiner
I’m clearly in the minority here. Based on all the glowing reviews, I expected to be blown away by A Love Letter to Whiskey, which only made my lackluster response all the more disappointing.
Review: The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren
The Soulmate Equation is surprisingly cute. I was afraid the book might spend too much time on scientific details, but it’s just the right amount. The relationships between the characters are what really interested me.
Review: Infamous Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie
For the life of me I don’t know why Sulli’s story needed to be a trilogy when it could easily have been told in two books. It’s just way too long for a story I wasn’t fully invested in. Anyway, I think I liked Infamous Like Us the best of the three books.
Audiobook Review: Fearless Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie
I enjoyed Fearless Like Us more than the previous book. The story picks up right where Wild Like Us left off, but the pace seems faster and there’s a lot more at stake for everyone.
Audiobook Review: Wild Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie
Granted, I’m not a big fan of love triangles. They’re nerve wracking and only work for me if the ship I love the most is the one that prevails. However, I am a huge fan of this series, so how could I not read Wild Like Us? The fact that I was disappointed in the story is mostly on me, and fair warning that my reasons why may be a bit spoilery.
