Monthly Reading Recap: Spooky Edition

Well, October flew by in a blink, didn’t it? Every time I sat down to write up a week’s worth of reading, I would get distracted and never end up writing anything, so this month is a review of faves and less than faves I read over the 31 days of October! While I didn’t […]

Covers of books JBR read in September

September Recap!

We had two weekends of back to back family weddings so this is coming out a little later! One more stride towards getting back to a more regular posting schedule. So many spooky reads this month! Some favorites: Pumpkin Spice & Poltergeist (ARC) by Ali K. Mulford and K. Elle Morrison I saw a comment […]

Vacation, Then School, Then Life

Hey Friends, it’s been a minute! I went on vacation for 5 days up in Northern Michigan at the beginning of August and just completely fell out of my posting. When we got back, it was time for the kiddo to get back to school, So Puzzled Puzzle Company participated in a local festival, and […]

Did Not Finish – DNFing FTW!

Life is too short to read books you aren’t enjoying. I used to be hardline that I had to finish every book I started even if I didn’t like it, even if I hated it! I went through a classics phase and forced myself to read books in their entirety because they were on some […]

My Killer Vacation

THE SPICE in this book, folks. THE. SPICE. Is the timeline for love and moving in together a “normal” timeline? Absolutely not. Is it how I have gone about new relationships? Also absolutely not. But are the spicy time interruptus hot AF? Yes, SO. MUCH. YES. I enjoyed the murder mystery as well as the […]

The P*ssy Next Door

Y’all, I cannot get enough of Amy Award. That’s just facts. This is just a fricken DELIGHTFUL romp. I loved that they skipped a brother in the order, though I have suspicions on who Everett shall be wooing. I loved that Willa’s cat is an escape artist to the nth degree, and that Seven clearly […]

The Wiener Across the Way

This is an Amy Award stan blog now. There is no going back. Another absolute winner from Amy Award! I love this one for many of the same reasons I loved the first in this series, The C*ck Down the Block. Men raised to respect, honor, and support women, who were raised to ask for […]

End of Month Wrap Up

It’s the end of July! Did you read something that brought you joy this month? I read a few things that I really enjoyed, even kicking my feet with glee! I liked catching up on Lauren Blakely’s latest hockey romance, and I discovered Amy Award’s writing then promptly devoured what is out for the Kingman […]

The Mayor of Maxwell Street

I liked this book quite a bit. Avery Cunningham is so incredibly talented, and I am shocked this is her debut novel. It almost had a feel to it of a story that has been spun over a decades long career. It was a very intriguing story, and though I ended up having the title […]

The C*ck Down the Block

I absolutely loved this book. I DNFd the book I was reading right before it, so I was completely over the moon to be grabbed by the shirt and pulled right into this one from the get go! The sex and body positive writing in this book was phenomenal. A lot of times in romance, […]
