Crush the King by Jennifer EstepCrown of Shards #3FantasyMarch 17, 2020 by Harper VoyagerARC Favorite Quote- I had started this journey as a gladiator, and I was going to finish it as one.

What began as a young, seemingly insignificant, woman witnessing the annihilation of her entire family line ends with a queen avenging their deaths and crushing her enemies. At her side are her friends, family, and consort Continue Reading

Here are just a few of the books I'm most anticipating this month. House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City #1) by Sarah J Mass 3/3 Fantasy- As soon as I found out this author was releasing a book in a new series I had to Continue Reading

Smexy’s October TBR
Angela: I actually have a few more, but by the time this posts I'll have already reviewed them. Look for reviews for The Library of the Unwritten, Aurora Blazing, and The Twisted Ones.

Top Ten August 12
10 . No top ten from me would be complete without a picture of Kitty Scarlett 9. Beverly Hills 90210- It’s back. I was a devout 90210 fan. I loved Dylan from the beginning. I used to record the episodes on VHS and watch them again and again. I have mixed feelings about it being back without Luke Perry, but I watched anyway. Who watched? What did you think? 8. Three words- Bachelor In Paradise? Is anyone else watching this? I wanted to and then realized it is on two nights a week for two Continue Reading
