Nostalgia for Paranormal Romance Fans: Bride – An ARC Review

February 26, 2024

Having spent a cringeworthy amount of years devouring Nalini Singh’s books and an unhealthy dose of various paranormal romances (some so obscure that I cannot remember the titles), I initially wanted to avoid reading Bride. But after hearing multiple positive reviews, I braved the embarrassing onslaught of memories and dived right in.

And the reviews did not lie. … More Nostalgia for Paranormal Romance Fans: Bride – An ARC Review

Surprisingly Good: Didn’t See That Coming – An ARC Review

January 5, 2024

I was not a huge fan of Well, That Was Unexpected, the companion novel to Didn’t See That Coming. In fact, I disliked it so much that I couldn’t bring myself to write a review for it. When I received a surprise physical arc from PRH International, safe to say, I was regretting my request for it. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much I did enjoy Didn’t See That Coming, even though it would not make my “best of” lists. … More Surprisingly Good: Didn’t See That Coming – An ARC Review

June 22, 2023

If you’re looking for a small town, holiday season read to cosy up to when the sun goes down, the candles come on and you’re snuggled up with a warm cup of tea, Lovelight Farms is the perfect selection.

The Ending Redeemed It: The Isles of the Gods – An ARC Review

April 27, 2023

I wanted to like The Isles of the Gods. I mean, who reads a book hating it, am I right? But, I developed such a love-hate relationship with this book. On one hand, the ending completely saved it. I loved how it was all wrapped up. On the other hand, I disliked the rest of it and boy, do I have much criticism about it. But I promise, I was being very respectful about my criticism and was only snarky once. I promise.  … More The Ending Redeemed It: The Isles of the Gods – An ARC Review

Reduce Your Expectations to Zero: Stars, Hide Your Fires – An ARC Review

April 20, 2023

Stars, Hide Your Fires has a fantastic idea within its pages. I loved the entirety of the plot, the characters and the world introduced. It’s not the most unique story ever told but it has good bones. I just wished the author had taken their time to really develop the entire story. This is one instance where I will say that it could have been split into a duology or a trilogy. … More Reduce Your Expectations to Zero: Stars, Hide Your Fires – An ARC Review

Cinderella Meets Scream: How to Survive Your Murder – An ARC Review

September 7, 2022

It’s a little bit early for a spooky read but we’re getting ahead of the game! Reminiscent of the 90s slasher film and some even say Happy Death Day, How to Survive Your Murder is a written play by play of the classic film genre, featuring my favourite horror trope: the Final Girl. With unsuspecting twists and a healthy dose of horrific and brutal kill scenes, you’ll definitely want to add How to Survive Your Murder to your reading list. … More Cinderella Meets Scream: How to Survive Your Murder – An ARC Review
