Rabbits – Review
I wasn’t familiar with the podcast, but I couldn’t resist reading the Rabbits book as soon as I read the synopsis. As a bit of a conspiracy nut, I can’t help but love a compulsive read like this one. This story was like Stranger Things, Ready Player One, The Adjustment Bureau, and Conspiracy Theory (Mel…
The Letter – Review
BLURB: Tina Craig longs to escape her violent husband. She works all the hours God sends to save up enough money to leave him, also volunteering in a charity shop to avoid her unhappy home.

28 Summers – Review
So many thanks to Libro.fm for allowing me to listen to the advance audio!

The Fiery Cross – Review
BLURB: The year is 1771, and war is coming. Jamie Fraser’s wife tells him so. Little as he wishes to, he must believe it, for hers is a gift of dreadful prophecy—a time-traveler’s certain knowledge. Claire’s unique view of the future has brought him both danger and deliverance in the past; her knowledge of the…
Darling Rose Gold – Review
BLURB: For the first eighteen years of her life, Rose Gold Watts believed she was seriously ill. She was allergic to everything, used a wheelchair and practically lived at the hospital. Neighbors did all they could, holding fundraisers and offering shoulders to cry on, but no matter how many doctors, tests, or surgeries, no one…
The Outsider – Review
BLURB: An unspeakable crime. A confounding investigation. At a time when the King brand has never been stronger, he has delivered one of his most unsettling and compulsively readable stories. An eleven-year-old boy’s violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City’s most popular citizens. He…
What You Wish For – Review
Like many of us, I fell in love with Katherine Center’s writing last year. She has a fantastic way of making an evocative novel lots of fun to read. I admire her writing and her delightful characters. Naturally, What You Wish For was one of my most anticipated reads for 2020. BLURB: Samantha Casey loves…
Wild at Heart – Blog Tour & Review
My thoughts: Oh my gosh, it was so great to catch up with Calla and Jonah following The Simple Wild. I absolutely adored the first story (it’s one of my all-time faves) and couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one as soon as I heard a sequel was coming. Of course, it’s always…

One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the…
Doctor Dearest – Release Day & Review
R.S. Grey has a formula nailed down for her books and I AM HERE FOR IT. With each book, I’m nervous it will be the one that might not work for me and, thankfully, that just doesn’t happen. There’s something about her writing that immediately captures me from the first page and keeps me coming…
The Edge of Never – Review
I finally read The Edge of Never, the book that sat in the first place slot on my Goodreads “Want to Read” shelf for five long years! This book comes with high praise from numerous friends, and now I’m happy to say, “I get it!” This book is fantastic and had the Indie-feel I fell…
Nowhere But Here – Review
Nowhere But Here by Katie McGarry is another book that has been on my TBR for what feels like forever, and I’m so excited to finally check it off my list. It has been a long time since I’ve enjoyed a YA book as much as I did with this one. I honestly thought I…
You Were There Too – Review
I couldn’t put You Were There Too by Colleen Oakley down this weekend. I’m completely drawn to the idea of prophetic dreams or telepathic dreams, having experienced some unexplainable ones myself. It was interesting to see the author’s take on it, which gave this story a bit of a magical realism feel. I’ve been anxious…
Behind Every Lie – Review
Many thanks to Gallery Books & Netgalley for an early copy of this novel. I fell in love with Christina McDonald’s writing style when I read The Night Olivia Fell early in 2019. I appreciated her ability to weave emotional writing into her suspenseful storytelling. I’m thankful to see she hasn’t deviated from this unique…
Fly Away – Review
(If you plan to read Firefly Lane, you may want to skip this review as it will contain spoilers.) Fly Away is the continuation of Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah and a resolution I didn’t know I needed. This series is coming to Netflix next year, so I wanted to be certain to finish the…
In Five Years – Review
Many thanks to Netgalley and Atria Books for the chance to read this novel early. It’s no secret I love mindbending books that play with the concept of time. As soon as I read the blurb for this one, I knew I would be bumping it to the top of my to be read list….
The Gamble – Review
Wow, this book hooked me from beginning to end. I haven’t read such a hefty book as quickly in quite some time. I decided to pick this one up because I was in the mood for a lengthy romance. After Reads_Romance wrote one of her excellent blurbs of The Gamble in her Instagram Story I knew it…
Jet Girl – Review
Wow, Jet Girl was easily one of the most addictive memoirs I have ever had the experience of reading. I have greatly enjoyed reading military books, including Lone Survivor, American Sniper, and even American Wife by Taya Kyle. Interestingly, most of the military books I’ve read, including this one, have centered around the Navy. I…
Sparrow – Review
I’m starting this review with a heavy blush! Whew, this book was a tad more smutty than I’m used to, but it didn’t stop me from enjoying this excellent story! After seeing this amazing interview with L.J. Shen, I had to read her book which had been sitting on my Kindle for far too long….
