Sugar Daddy – Review
That title threw me for a loop when I first read it. I would never be someone to read about girls with sugar daddies and be even remotely interested in that storyline. However, many of my favorite bloggers and bookstagrammers recommended this book and said not to judge it by its title. I searched my…
Nowhere But Here – Review
I’m continuing to make my way through Renee Carlino’s backlist for my Beat the Backlist Challenge. I picked this one because the blurb sounded really exciting. A reclusive genius, sign me up! BLURB: A Chicago reporter in her mid-twenties unexpectedly finds love in Napa Valley when she’s assigned to spend a week with a famously…
More Than We Can Tell – Review
Back in June, I read Letters to the Lost, the first book in this series by Brigid Kemmerer. When I realized there was a book about Rev, Declan’s best friend in Letters to the Lost, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. After our summer vacation, I requested this through Interlibrary loan and…

Up in the Treehouse – Review
Oh, you guys, I knew this was going to happen. I knew I was going to curse myself for waiting so long to read Up in the Treehouse by the lovely K.K. Allen. This book has been sitting on my TBR from practically the moment it released, and why? Because I’m a dumb procrastinator. Give me ALL…
Something in the Way – Review
I believe certain books come to us at the very time we need them in life. Sometimes we’re led to them, and it’s like the world is shouting at us “Stop everything you’re doing and read this book now!” Something in the Way was one of those books for me. First, my lovely friend, Kacy from Fettered Matriarch,…
180 Seconds – Review
I have been in a book slump for half of June. I’ve been wanting to read something great but constantly feeling bored with my current reads instead. In most cases, it’s no fault of the books I’ve been reading; I have simply been distracted. Part of it might be that I’ve read more than I…
Eight Goodbyes – Review
Many thanks to Christine Brae, Vesuvian Books, and Netgalley for the chance to read and review Eight Goodbyes. After discovering Christine Brae’s writing in 2016, I have been a huge fan of her work, blog posts, and simply her as a person. I’ve eagerly been awaiting the release of Eight Goodbyes for more than two…
It Ends With Us – Review
I devoured this book in less than 24 hours with my heart and soul. I never expected to love this book as much as I did, though I should have known it would be incredible. It has easily taken the top spot on my list of favorite CoHo books. In 15 seconds Lily Bloom’s life…
