Angela’s Favorites of 2020

December 30, 2020 by Angela 7 Comments

Contemporary Romance: The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa- You know that feeling of frustration you get when you are reading a really great book and you are in the middle of a part where you can hardly take your eyes off the page because you need to know what happens next and suddenly life interrupts? That was me reading The Worts Best Man. I did not want to put it down and stuff kept happening that forced me to. Ugh. A fabulous mix of laugh out loud funny, sweet, and sexy. This book had it all Continue Reading

Kate’s Favorites of 2020

Historical Romance The Duke Who Didn't by Courtney Milan: I'm not entirely sure what I can say since I feel like everybody has already read and loved this book. The Duke Who Didn't is a fluffy romance with a side of food porn. I fell in love with Chloe and her lists and board clip, her dad and his spicy food for Jeremy, and Jeremy and his endearing goofiness. I can't wait to visit Wedgeford again. The Beast of Beswick by Amalie Howard: I read The Beast of Beswick near the beginning of Continue Reading

The Hollow Places by T. KingfisherHorror/ FantasyOctober 6. 2020 by Gallery/Saga PressARC I love this author's fantasy novels, but it wasn't until last year that I realized she was delving into the horror genre as well. The Twisted Ones was FANTASTIC, which means as soon as her sophomore effort in the genre came up for review I hit my request button. The Hollow Places is pure dark, creepy, goodness. I was enthralled from the moment the main protagonist, Kara (or Carrot by her uncle), Continue Reading

Smexy’s October TBR

October 6, 2020 by Angela 3 Comments

Angela: Hold on tight... I have a LIST. I feel like every book I want to read this year releases in October. (So many I'm not even going to list them all here.) The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab 10/6 Fantasy- I've actually already read this one, simply because I couldn't resist. AND IT WAS FABULOUS. This is a story of a woman who makes a deal with the devil in order to be free and have nothing holding her down, only she doesn't exactly get what she expects. No one remembers Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Reviews for books by T. Kingfisher and Ella Maven

February 26, 2020 by Angela 4 Comments

I discovered that T. Kingfisher was releasing another book in her Temple of the White Rat world when I was putting together the new release post. To say I was excited would be an understatement, I hit that pre-order one-click button so hard. This author has quickly become one of my favorites in the fantasy genre and I will set aside everything else when I see she has a new release. Paladin’s Grace is heavier on the romance (which I loved) than the other books set in this world. The Clockwork Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Book Reviews for books by Lisa Kleypas and Simone St. James

February 19, 2020 by Angela Leave a Comment

Chasing Cassandra is the sixth book in the Ravenels series by Lisa Kleypas and I couldn't wait to read Tom and Cassandra's love story. From glancing at the ratings and reviews on Goodreads I think I'm the only reader in Romancelandia who didn't absolutely love this book. LOL. Not that I didn't enjoy my time spent reading, because I did, but it didn't blow me away. Tom and Cassandra meet by chance at her sister Poppy's wedding and it is lust at first sight for Tom. Cassandra on the other hand Continue Reading

Angela’s Tuesday Reviews: Sci-Fi/Fantasy Edition

October 1, 2019 by Angela 2 Comments

Aurora Blazing by Jessie MihalikThe Consortium Rebellion #2Science Fiction RomanceOctober 1, 2019 by Harper VoyagerARC As I'm sure everyone who reads my reviews (or deals posts every time it goes on sale) by now knows, I ADORED the first book in this series, Polaris Rising. I still get chills when I think of the first meeting between Loch and Ada. And the tension between Ada's sister Bianca the family head of security Ian Bishop left me on greedy for more. I loved the heroine, Bianca. Continue Reading

Angela’s Monday Mornings

December 10, 2018 by Angela 1 Comment

Clockwork Boys and The Wonder Engine by T. Kingfisher Clocktaur War books 1 & 2 Fantasy Favorite Quote: "Would you like to go on a suicide mission?" she asked instead. He smiled. It was the first genuine smile she'd seen all day. "I would be honored," he said. I one-clicked both of these books after reading this blurb: A paladin, an assassin, a forger, and a scholar ride out of town. It’s not the start of a joke, but rather an espionage mission with deadly serious stakes. T. Continue Reading
