Review: By Any Other Name by Lauren Kate
By Any Other Name by Lauren KateContemporary RomanceMarch 1, 2022, by G.P. Putnam's Sons Review by Iby I know some readers dislike deception in their romance. I’m not sure that I’m necessarily opposed to deception, but I do enjoy it more when an author makes the other main character aware of the deception early on. Lauren Kate does that here, as she introduces us to her heroine, Lanie, a book editor who also works on the books written by the anonymous author Noa Calloway. Noa is a Continue Reading
Review: Partner Track by Cat Wynn
Partner Track by Cat WynnContemporary Romance April 26, 2022, by Carina Press Review by Melanie I’m going to be perfectly honest here, when I finished this book, I was really torn as to how I felt about it and wasn’t sure I could actually write a proper review about it. After spending some time thinking about it, I’ve come to some conclusions regarding my feelings toward this book. The reason I was initially so torn about this book is that for the first 88% of the book, I really Continue Reading

Review: The Children on the Hill by Jennifer McMahon
The Children on the Hill by Jennifer McMahonGothic Horror/SuspenseApril 26, 2022, by Gallery/Scout PressARC Review by Angela I've kind of been on a gothic suspense/horror kick for the last couple of years. In between my romance and mysteries, I find myself reaching for something with that creepy, dark, scare factor. I discovered this author last year when she released The Drowning Kind and immediately added her to my auto-buy shelf. The Children on the Hill is told in alternating Continue Reading
Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher
Nettle & Bone by T. KingfisherFantasy/HorrorApril 26, 2022, by Tor BooksARC Review by Angela As much as I adore this author's romantic fantasies, and I absolutely do, sometimes I actually prefer her horror novels. If you haven't read The Hollow Places and The Twisted Ones, you should definitely get on that. This is very much a novel in two parts. The beginning introduces our main protagonist and tells the story of how she came to be on the perilous mission she is currently Continue Reading

Review: Book Boyfriend by Kris Ripper
Book Boyfriend by Kris RipperLGBTQIA Contemporary RomanceCarina Adores PressApril 26, 2022 by Kate H. I had to adjust my expectations a lot as I read Book Boyfriend, and I expect most readers may not have the patience. Written as an inner monologue with all the verbal habits, like “like” and “you know” intact, it tells the story of PK or Preston Kinglsey Harrington III. Like many “the thirds” he has the benefit of generational wealth, and he lives in a New York apartment with a Continue Reading
Review: Highway to Hail by Sierra Dean
Highway to Hail by Sierra DeanRainchaser #3Urban FantasyApril 26, 2022- Self-publishedARC Review by Angela This was one of my most anticipated releases this year. The previous installment, Driving Rain, came out in 2017 and left off on a HUGE cliffhanger. So for five years, I've kept my fingers crossed that this author would release another book in this series and put me out of my misery. And now it's finally here! I was kind of worried that with the wait in between releases I would Continue Reading
