Review: Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan
Do Your Worst by Rosie DananContemporary RomancePublished November 14, 2023- BerkleyReviewed by Kate Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan is a fun read. It’s one that is a little difficult for me to review, because I don’t have too many strong feelings about it.

They only sent out an email 2 weeks before the end date, which is very little time to fix anything or figure out work arounds. Expect quite a few bloggers you enjoy having broken links, etc. when you visit their blogs. As for Smexy, this will affect the way the New Release post looks. Again. I'm back to my spreadsheet--which utilizes HTML. Next week I'll have everything Continue Reading
