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…

This one had 2 of my favourite tropes, and a good balance of tough topics with great romance.

Stars in Your Eyes by Kacen Callender

4 stars — I was a little worried about how I would tolerate the more serious topics in this story, and if I was in the right mood for that.  But I thought there was a pretty good balance, and…

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…

Dax by Sawyer Bennett

3 stars — Well huh.  This one was only okay for me.  I think there were multiple things that went into it for me, but all in all it gave me a feeling of meh. This was my first listen by Virgi…

Dudes. If you've read it, call me, we need to talk.

This was my one read for the #COYER Spooky RAT, but I was proud to get at least that one in!

Also, I had to do some clean up of this review for the retail sites. *snort*

House of Roots and Ruin by Erin A. Craig

4 stars — Fuck me, that ending.  It’s both perfect given the genre and style, and drives me fucking mad.  Sorry, I needed to get that out.  If anyone fan fictions an extra epilogue, ple…

The Duke Undone by Joanna Lowell

4 stars — I will admit that the main reason I picked up this book is because Mary Jane Wells is the narrator.  That won’t completely sell me on a book, but it’ll have me giving it…

I'm still slowly trying to catch up on reviews from September! This was my first read for the #COYER Recommend Me a Book Read-a-thon, and was recommended by Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard​! I loved reading Cam's HEA, and definitely look forward to reading more in this series!

Mine Till Midnight by Lisa Kleypas

4 stars — Man I love Ms. Kleypas.  Her historicals are always just so easy for me to read and fall in love with the characters.  I mean, yes, I love some more than others.  But this one defin…

Happy RELEASE DAY Sarina Bowen!! I'm Your Guy is here, and it is EXACTLY the book we all need right now!! Fantasy major hockey leagues are way better than real ones.

I absolutely loved listening to this one, and I can't wait for you guys to read the bedroom sets scene -- that one had me grinning from ear to ear. Check out my review:

While I read these novellas completely out of order, I don't think it mattered to my enjoyment! I adored the first 2, but the 3rd one just didn't click with me as much.
