Headlines Book Review

Thoughts:
I am a mood reader – so, I guess I wasn’t in the mood for this book? It was disappointing, really. I know you are going to ask me… Did I even read the first 2 books in the series? Yes, I did, and I immensely enjoyed them, thank you very much.
What was disappointing was I expected so much more. Instead, what I got was a long drawn out whining session from a supporting character. I …

Tell Me Lies Book Review

Angie’s Thoughts:
It has taken 6 days to finish this book. 6 days that I won’t get back. I hate writing negative reviews. I think authors work hard and it’s not my place to criticize them but then there’s this thing I live by about being 100% honest in all my reviews. So here we go..
I’ll start off by what I liked about it. I liked Lucy sometimes. I liked her about 1/4 of the time …

Secret Lucidity Book Review

Angie’s Thoughts:
This book is extremely hard to get into. We are almost immediately plunged into the mind of a very depressed 17 yr old girl. It’s not all sunshine and roses throughout. It’s darkness, tears, madness, and intense situations that some might find troubling. You need to be mentally prepared for this book. I was not and it wasn’t for the troubling situations or the forbidden relationship.
I had to stop so many times to remove …

Without Merit Book Review

Angie’s Thoughts:
I’ve never not liked a Colleen Hoover book but there’s always a first. Let’s start out with what I liked before I list what I didn’t like.
Likes:

I loved Sagen. I wish we had read more of story. More of him. He’s intriguing and mysterious and I wanted to crawl into his brain. I also think he was senile for staying with such a dysfunctional family but I understood at the same time.
I loved some …

Angie’s Thoughts:
I struggled really hard giving The Knight 2 stars. I really loved The Bandit. It was my first book by B.B. Reid and I was so excited for The Knight until I read it.
This book should’ve taken me 2 hours tops to read it but instead took me 2 days. TWO DAYS of my …

“A Touch Of Lust” Book Review

Angie’s Thoughts:
I really wanted to love this book and I did at first. I read it so fast that I couldn’t put it down. Then a common problem kept happening over and over. Eating away at me and instead of enjoying the book I became annoyed.
What? You ask. Mia’s constant whining and reminding us she escaped from a cult every. single. chance. she. could. get. I wanted to love her and feel a connection with …

“Into The Nothing” Book Review

Liezel’s Thoughts:
I had a difficult time getting into this book which is a rarity on my part. It just felt like the introduction went on forever!  It was about 60 percent for me  to become fully vested into the story.
There were a few interesting developments added in to keep things going but it all felt rushed at that point. I wished that these elements were elaborated more in the beginning rather than towards the end. …

“Showmance” Book Review

Liezel’s Thoughts:
“Showmance” is about a retired actor- Damon, who finally decides that it is high time for a comeback. Rather than returning to film however, he accepts a role in a theater production where he meets the choreographer’s assistant Rose.
From the very beginning, sparks flew between these two characters but nothing immediately came of it for a variety of reasons. There were so many variables standing in their way and normally I would appreciate this …

Landon Miller’s “RED” Book Review

Micah’s Thoughts:
I’m unsure how to even start this review other than to say that it wasn’t my cup of tea.

The story in the beginning was difficult to follow. I felt like it was too much background, with too little detail, shoved in to too few pages. Let me specify that I have read no other of London Miller’s books. When I finally did look up this book, when I was 30% into it, apparently this …

“The Debt” Book Review

Micah’s Thoughts:
Let’s be clear about 1 thing. My review will have spoilers. Do not read further if this bothers you. I give this book, at best, 2.5 stars.
This book would have been more successful if the writer had stuck to 1 particular problem or let the main characters each have an emotional problem and have a dual pov? I’m trying to find how I could have connected more to the characters because I flat out …
