Emily Henry (aka EmHen, aka the queen of romcoms) came across my radar about the time I was having a reading renaissance during the pandemic. I had never heard of her books before but went ahead and requested Beach Read from my library. Fast forward to 2023 and I’m driving […]
August Reading Wrap Up
It’s hard to believe that August is done. When I lived somewhere with actual seasons, it truly did feel like the end of summer. However, now that I live in Houston where it is hot until…forever? I have to channel fall vibes despite the 90ยบ heat. Looking back, I had […]

After encouragement from a friend (she literally sent me home one day with all five books), I decided to delve into the world of ACOTAR. I was hesitant. Do I really want to commit to a series with five books? Do I really like fantasy, or was Fourth Wing a […]

Book Review: Meet Me at the Lake
I was highly anticipating Carley Fortune’s sophomore book Meet Me at the Lake. As a fan of Every Summer After, I was excited to see what she came up with after her explosive debut. Unfortunately, this one did not deliver in the same way ESA did. Read on for my […]
Book Review: Romantic Comedy
Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld was my April Book of the Month pick. It was not on my radar, but it was the most intriguing book from that month’s selections. This book is labeled and marketed as a romance. However, it is much more or a character-driven story focused on […]
Book Review: Yours Truly
when Yours Truly came out, I knew I had to buy it. I discovered Abby Jimenez when I read Part of Your World and immediately became obsessed. Let me just say that Jimenez has quickly become one of my favorite writers, and she is now an auto-buy author for me. […]
