Humor Me

Short break from Zodiac Academy for a light, frilly rom com – a perfect beach read! As a Michigander, it was a delight to read a romance novel set in the place I have lived my entire life. I picked this up at Book Suey in Hamtramck during the MI Book Hop. The author is […]

Zodiac Academy: Shadow Princess

WHAT THE FUCK!? How am I supposed to just stop reading these now and go read SIX other books to have the best impact?! WHY. The friend who got me hooked on these (ELYSE) sent the rest of book club this tiktok, as her endorsed way to read the series (she is not the tiktoker […]

Zodiac Academy: The Reckoning

Ok, biggest thing that I was glad to see in this book was that the twins’ orders finally emerged. I was so tired of waiting for that. The biggest thing I am not thrilled that the bullying is still going on. Like, y’all got bigger problems to worry about then who hates each other more […]

Zodiac Academy: Ruthless Fae

What is happening to me. I am writing this after having just finished Shadow Princess, because I am a monster who cannot be stopped! I have read Ruthless Fae, The Reckoning, and Shadow Princess over the last few days and I am literally forcing myself to stop to write these up. (The Awakening review is […]

Butcher & Blackbird

Well, I definitely didn’t have recommending a book with “accidental cannibalism” in the list of trigger warnings on my bingo card, but here we are… While I definitely was icked out at some of the descriptions of decaying dead bodies and um, some of the descriptions of the murdery activities in this novel, it was […]

Novellas: An Update

I have definitely focused a lot on novellas this month. Since my last update, I have read an additional 11 novellas along with my other reading for the month, and the previous 18 I already mentioned. Some of these are really just… wat. Sex Stalker is by a dude, which is clear, because only a […]

Bride

The STEM romance queen Ali Hazelwood has turned her attention to fantasy, and I am not sure how we can survive! I was excited to read this because I have thoroughly enjoyed literally everything else Ali has written. I ended up reading this now because Stephanie and I finally both had physical copies, in our […]

Raiders of the Lost Heart

I straight up DEVOURED this book. I started reading Tuesday night and finished it Wednesday afternoon! Though, to be fair, this is a Once Upon a Book Club (OUAB) book, so I had gifties I was really looking forward to getting to! I am not a monthly subscriber, but I do pay attention to their […]

Namaste and Code All Day

Apparently my theme this week is “romance with mental illness” as this ARC is exactly that. Just a heads up, I am a member of the ARC team for Ally Williams, so this was provided to me free of charge in exchange for an honest review. A sweet romance that combined some of my favorite […]

At First Spite

I devoured several of Olivia Dade’s romances last summer, and I was super excited to see that she had another book coming out earlier this year. Olivia often has plus size women in the FMC roles in her novels, this was no different. I really like how she lovingly describes larger women, their beauty and […]
