Both of these books were winners! So very different, but excellent in their own ways. The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller was on my TBR list for a long time. This book has great buzz and it absolutely lived up to the hype!! I will be recommending this to everyone I meet. I cried at the end. Right up to the last moment I thought it was going to end a certain way and it went in another direction. The writing is so beautiful and tugged at all of my emotions. The book is about one of Continue Reading

Review: On a Night Like This by Lindsey Kelk
Smexy has a new reviewer! Everyone welcome Iby! On a Night Like This by Lindsey KelkContemporary RomanceJanuary 18, 2022, by Harper360/ HarperCollinsARC Review by Iby I love a good contemporary British romance book… something halfway between women’s fiction and a romcom, strongly character-driven focused on a woman who needs to make changes in her life. The hero is usually in the background, and the romance is usually slow burn and clean. If you like books by Josie Silver, Mhairi Continue Reading
Review: Electric Idol by Katee Robert
Electric Idol by Katee RobertFantasy Erotica1/18/2022 by Sourcebooks CasablancaARC Reviewed by Jen I was so excited to get Electric Idol by Katee Robert. I LOVED Neon Gods and book two features the story of Psyche and Eros. Psyche is the sister of Persephone from book one, and Eros is the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Who, as an aside, is not a nice loving individual. Aphrodite uses Eros to do her dirty work, killing things and such. I continue to really love this Continue Reading

The Best Men by Sarin Bowen and Lauren BlakelyThe Best Men #1LGBTQ Contemporary Romance01/18/2022 Self PublishedARC Review by Angela I've been trying to be good this year and not request every single book I see that looks interesting.

And I loved everything about this book from beginning to end. Dahlia and London are competitors on a cooking show and one of the things I loved so much is that there is no antagonism between them at all. Just encouragement and laughter and love of the craft. I felt like the Continue Reading
