Betting on You

This was really interesting to me to read. As a bonus mom to a bonus daughter, my heart really ached for both Charlie and for Bailey. Their bio parents did an absolute shit job communicating with them and helping them transition into these new living situations. We emphasize communication immensely with aforementioned daughter. We communicate […]

Fake It Till You Bake It

A super sweet read, even without the cupcakes! A fake dating, everyone catches feels romance that was light, and the third act disaster was amazing! No break ups because of communication bullshit! It was what they needed, and I really liked how it all came together. I also loved how Jada and Donovan learned from […]

Band of Sisters

This was a slow starter for me. I wanted to be invested in the story, because it is based on the real Smith College Relief Unit (SCRU) during World War I, and those stories are important to be told. Too often, women’s contributions are erased, and so I was 1) Glad to see this book […]

Dragonfruit

This was an amazing read! I waited for months to get it from Libby and it was so worth the wait. Adventure, strong female main character, magic, and Dragons! A great read, no matter the age of the reader. This is a YA book, aka, there is one kiss, very innocent. I devoured it in […]

Party Animal

**I was provided a copy to read for my honest opinion.** I am a member of Ali K. Mulford’s ARC team for this series. And it does not disappoint! A sweet fake dating story with everyone catching feels! It’s different than any other fake dating trope I’ve read in one minor detail – they both […]

A Very Punchable Face

One of the funnier memoirs I’ve read this year. I loved the callouts to just how damn white he is (I also glow in the dark) and hearing more about SNL behind the scenes is always fun. I agree with his mom though, maybe he should stop going to Central America on vacation, something always […]

The Do-Over

This is a cute book. Set around a teenage girl and her idea of perfect love, so there’s obviously no spicy, but it is so sweet. There is also a playlist available from Spotify and I also pulled it into YouTube Music for people like me who don’t have Spotify. There is much T. Swift on it! […]

Offside Hearts

This was hella spicy, 5/5 for that, but the plot was only kind of meh. It’s a light read, and I still really liked it.  Not really sure what else to say about this book, honestly. Because the spicy scenes and some of the romantic scenes were the best part of the book. The character […]

Dirty Daddy

Continuing down my Full House memoir lane, and as with Jodie’s, a book that’s been out for awhile, Bob Saget’s memoir is my latest memoir read. It was interesting reading this a few years after his death. Knowing he did find love again, and also being able to hear his side of some of the […]

Booked on a Feeling

Jayci Lee freaking crushed it with this story, holy crap! This book captured the desire to do what makes you happy juxtaposed with family expectations and assumptions perfectly. It is absolutely insane how well those feeling come off the page and make me feel seen.  And the friends to lovers was so sweet, and hooo boy […]
