Review: The Hocus Pocus Handbook by Ann Aguirre
The Hocus Pocus Handbook by Ann AguirreCozy Fantasy Romance Published September 1, 2026 by SourcebooksARC Review by Angela I liked the premise of this book when I read the blurb, and the cover gave off cozy vibes, so I went for it and requested this for review. I will admit that this book was a real struggle to get through, the pacing was very slow, and I found myself picking it up, and then putting it back down after a few pages. I kind of feel like I was dropped into an already Continue Reading

Review: Formula Zero by Meredith Lanzen
Formula Zero by Meredith LanzenScience Fiction RomancePublished on July 7, 2026 by BerkleyReviewed by Kate I consider myself fairly well-versed in Formula 1 themed romance novels, having created and recorded a short-lived podcast about them a few years back - at the time, they were just becoming more common, and now I find them all over the place. Formula Zero was a fun futuristic racing romance, with both of our main characters as race drivers. It was not like anything I’ve read before Continue Reading
Review: The Roommate Rule by Georgia Stone
The Roommate Rule by Georgia StoneContemporary RomancePublished July 7, 2026 by Harper PerennialReviewed by Kate The first rule of The Roommate Rule is you need to suspend disbelief. The premise is that Max, Dylan’s friend’s brother, has been invited on a six week (SIX WEEK) influencer trip, and he invites Dylan along, even though they really haven’t spent a lot of time together, and Dylan agrees. This, to me, is a WILD premise - I honestly could not get over the six weeklong trip aspect Continue Reading
