Review: Boys With Sharp Teeth by Jenni Howell (Release 04/08/2025)
I wanted to love this book so badly. I’m always looking for the next book that’ll crawl into my skin like The Raven Boys did. I found the pace of this book really difficult to sink into, and was unfortunately frustrated by the mismatch between marketing/cover and the story inside. While the comparison to The…

Review: Prince of the Palisades by Julian Winters (Release 08/20/2024)
I received an eARC of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I’ll admit that at times I was so frustrated with the character of Leon that I just wanted to put the book down, and I was deeply uncomfortable with the ways he didn’t seek consent from Jadon…

Review: Tangled Up In You by Christina Lauren (Release 06/25/2024)
I received an eARC of this novel from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This is my favorite Meant To Be book so far. The adaptation of Tangled is fun and enjoyable. I love the mix of Ren’s brilliant mind and her complete inexperience in the real world. So much fun!

Review: A Happier Life by Kristy Woodson Harvey (Release 06/25/2024)
I received an eARC of this novel through the publisher in exchange for an honest review. I didn’t want to put this book down. The story has a mystery, love stories, work drama and family drama. What more can you ask for in one book? It was a fun read and my favorite KWH book…

Review: The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center (Release 06/11/2024)
Thank you so much to NetGalley and St Martin’s Press for the eARC of this book! I found The Rom-Commers to be an absolute joy. This is a book filled with Katherine Center doing what she does best: putting characters through the horrors of life to prepare them to open their hearts to love in…

Review: Stars in Your Eyes by Kacen Callender (Release: 10/10/2023)
I received an eARC of this novel from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely loved Mattie and Logan’s story. While I was initially drawn to this book because it was about two actors fake dating, I fell in love with it because of how well Kacen handled both characters’…

Review: The Forest Demands Its Due by Kosoko Jackson (Release 10/03/2023)
I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I love it when at the core of a horror story there is love, and this book absolutely delivered that. The Forest Demands Its Due is a story at its core about love and hate and the…

Review: Your Lonely Nights Are Over by Adam Sass (Release 09/12/2023)
I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Both of the Adam Sass books I’ve read have managed to find me exactly when I needed them. I loved this book that is aptly described as Scream meets Clueless. While it mainly remains a slasher novel…
