A Court of Silver Flamesby Sarah J. Maas Let me start off by saying that Mrs. Maas and I have quite the history, as reader and author. A Court of Thorns and Roses is one of my favorite fantasy series ever written. Throne of Glass has some of my favorite and least favorite books ever... Continue Reading →
The Christmas Backup Planby Lori Wilde Thank you to Netgalley for providing an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Beach Readby Emily Henry I have been stalling on writing this review for days. I just don't know where to start. Beach Read was described as a rom-com, but as reviews began circulating, it was clear that this book had more depth than the typical, easy, breezy romantic comedy. Gus and January write complete opposite... Continue Reading →
