SNEAK PEEK REVIEW: The Slowest Burn by Sarah Chamberlain
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First things first, I’m not actually sure that I’d consider this to be a slow burn, let alone the slowest burn. It’s not even the slowest burn I’ve read this week, lol. So the title set me up for some expectations that simply were not met, however, I still had a great time reading this debut. There are so many strong elements – I loved the journey from instant enemies to friends to…

This Chick Read: It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
I think I must be the only person who has never read a Colleen Hoover novel before, or at least that’s the way I feel. It Ends With Us has been on the bestseller list since it was released in 2016 and now that it’s been announced that a movie will be made starring Blake Lively as our heroine Lily it is back at the top again. I received this book and it’s sequel, It Starts With Us as a Christmas…

We suffer, heal, and proceed: Reviewing Death in Her Hands by Ottessa Moshfegh

I promise I have more “weird girl literature” to read by the end of the year. I’m planning on getting into my horror books so I will be prepared for…

Book Review: Burstall's descriptions transport readers to an idyllic setting
Author Emma Burstall wrote Beneath the Lemon Trees, which may be a reference to the main character’s sour life choices. However, a more fitting title might be Beneath the Olive Trees, given that the single love scene takes place there, reflecting the story’s ending.
Burstall’s descriptions transport readers to an idyllic setting, with vivid imagery of the main character’s trip to the Greek…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ AUDIOBOOK REVIEW: You, With a View by Jessica Joyce 🎧
I was absolutely GLOWING with swoons (and maybe even a happy tear or two) at the end of this book, and I can’t offer higher praise than that. That’s exactly why I read romance, the feeling I HOPE to get from every love story. This book got better and better with every page, until I was so emotionally attached to this couple that I was aching for them to finally get their happily ever after. The…

Audiobook Review: "The Divine Proverb of Streusel" by Sara Brunsvold

That’s the starting point of The Divine Proverb of Streusel by Sara Brunsvold, a women’s fiction story that explores family identity and forgiveness.
Shaken by her parents’ divorce and discouraged by the growing chasm…
