Another day another book. We’ve got a bit of a weird mix this time through, but honestly, I’m kind of into it. I felt like i was allllllmost on the verge of a book hangover, but alas, I persevered and here we are. This set of books got me through a work trip (oof), plane…

Twilight who? When the first book in this series was recommended to me, I had no clue what to expect. The only thing my friend told me was “it’s like twilight for the next generation”. Sold. And that’s exactly what this was. In a sense. But with a little less emo, and a little more…

Taylor Jenkins Reid does it again. Chef’s Kiss, honestly. As a former southern California resident who spent many days driving up PCH to Malibu, this book had such a strong sense of nostalgia that this element alone made me fall in love with the book. If you are a fan of Reid’s other books, then…

Delia Owens absolutely broke my heart with this one. I’m so not emotional. I don’t really cry during books. To say I was a mess by the end would be an understatement. I don’t say this to freak you out or anything like that. But I guess I’m trying to tell you that this book…
