Meet Tinker - She isn't the best at being cat. 10. This is me, this week. Barely surviving these last weeks of school. Four more school days left and we've made it! 9. I really enjoy Kristen Callihan's writing, and she knocks it out of the park with her new rock star book, Idol. I LOVED this book. Killian is in a world-famous band, but they are on a break and he is not feeling it. He ends up drunk on the heroine's lawn and she squirts him with a hose to start the book.

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

Smexy’s Top Ten – October 2
