Sheena’s Top Books of 2015
I read some pretty bad books this year. I have never had so many DNF's as I tend to try to hang in there until my disdain begins to manifest in more physiological ways that could affect my overall sanity. Needless to say, I'm the girl who tries to see the good in any book that I take on and even I had an inkling to petition for a 2015 Top Flops list! But then, something miraculous happened. Thoughts of the really good books I did come across this year took over and I was suddenly able to Continue Reading
May’s Top Books of 2015
This was, in general, a terrible book year. I had a record number DNF, WTF, and generally horrendously bad books. From creepy ‘like a father to her’ relationship dynamic to books that were completely unoriginal and everything in between – it was gnarly going out there. So much swinging and missing! The level of “ok I guess” C rated books was also record high for me, and this just really bums me out! Ah, but then I went sifting through the shelves and was pleasantly surprised to find that I Continue Reading
Tori’s Top Books for 2015
2015 was a strange year both personally and professionally. So many good books were published but not a lot wowed me. I know what you’re thinking- ”Dude, you have 24 books listed.” This is true. But I read over 300 new to me books this year, so this doesn’t even represent 10% of what I have read. MATH FTW!! Plus, it’s hard for me to pick. Unless I DNF, there is some aspect I enjoy about every book I read from the ‘wow this is fantastic’ 5 star reads to the ‘what the fresh hell was THAT’ 1 star Continue Reading

Tori’s Mini Reviews for September
Hold On by Kristen Ashley Series: The ‘Burg, #6 Romance Suspense Rating: B Hold On is the final story in The ‘Burg series and Ashley closes it with a bang. In classic Ashley style, she combines a sexy hard-fought romance with a multi plotted storyline. Nosy friends, pushy exs, chin dips, alpha heroes, and equally strong heroines all blend together to lead us to a glorious finish line. A strong secondary cast of old friends only serves to further endear you to this couple and their laughter Continue Reading

My problem is, I've yet to read this Continue Reading
