Bright Winter Lights & On a Night Like This by Liz Maverick

4 stars — I relistened to the first one before diving in to catch up on this series, and this one was just as cute as that one.  I don’t think I initially noticed how low steam these on…

Oh hi! Long time no see! I was seriously just burned out on books and blogging and everything. So this is a review from NOVEMBER that I read for the #NewReleaseRAT for #COYER! Definitely fun, even if this author's books feel a bit similar.

Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood

4.5 stars — I started this one buddy listening with the hubby on a road trip, but he declined to keep listening with me after we got home.  However, he did want the high level ‘what hap…

While this didn't end up being a Christmas book, it was wholeheartedly a winter book, and I managed to squeak it in for the #HoHoHoRAT2023! It was definitely fun and heartwarming.

The Family You Make by Jill Shalvis

4.5 stars — I don’t know if it was the contrast with the previous book I read, but I was immediately captured by Jane and Levi’s story.  Part of that is the situation at the start…

Another one for #HoHoHoRAT2023!! If I can finish my current one before midnight, I may actually make my goal!

This was also the pick for #COYER #BookClub, and I'm glad I finally got to read it! It was definitely more emotional than I was expecting, but I really enjoyed it in the end.

Dudes!! I love it when a prequel lives up! I LOVE this series! And I highly recommend listening, the author was a narrator first, and he just kills it.

Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree

4.5 stars — I’m always wary of prequels.  Will they live up?  Will they fundamentally change the character?  This one was spectacular. We got to see a much different Viv, but the fundam…
