I'm currently living in Northern California, smack dap in an area that is prone to wildfires. Ironically, wildfire season hasn't even officially started yet, but two weeks ago, a dry T-storm came through and unloaded thousands of lighting strikes in an area that hasn't seen rain since March/April....

Books I added to my TBR / August 2020 / Books I’m Most Excited About
I love making monthly TBRs, but what I love even more is adding to my always growing regular TBR. Some of these books are 2021 releases, some are part of favorite series, some I've been wanting a long time for, others are new to me authors. Do you have any of these books on your tbr as well?...

Say You’re Sorry by Karen Rose
Say You’re Sorry was my first book by this author, and I can see how she found a way that really worked for her. It was palpable how skilled and seasoned the author is because it’s pretty obvious she knows what she is doing. The suspense, as well as the romance was very well written.... Read More
Josh and Hazel’s Guide to Not Dating by Christina Lauren / Featuring My Favorite CL Heroine
I truly enjoyed this book. I started reading Christina Lauren at the end of 2017, it was Autoboyography, and ever since I've been devouring their books each time they have been released. But I think Hazel will always be my favorite CL heroine, with Love and Other Words being my most favorite CL book.... Read More
Outfox by Sandra Brown / Epic Cat & Mouse Game
I can't remember anymore when I picked up my first Sandra Brown novel, it must have been around the time I found Nora Roberts, but one of the books I remember the most is Slow Heat in Heaven, it was sultry, sexy and blew my mind.... Read More
BOOK REVIEW: The Switch by Beth O’Leary + Bonus Material / Charmingly British and a true feel good novel
I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that this book was one of my most highly anticipated novels of the 2020. And boy, I'm now even more in love with the author's writing than I was after reading The Flatshare. This was such a heartwarming novel, with so many LOL moments but it was also surprisingly deep and thoughtful at times. Another winner for me!... Read More
The Extraordinaries by TJ Klune / A Unique YA Superhero Novel
I'm a Marvel girl, but don't often read or watch super hero movies outside of the BIG ones. But then there are books by TJ KLUNE. Books I just can't miss out on. So, of course I had to give this one a go, especially after The House in the Cerulean Sea earlier this year. A new TJ KLUNE book is a must read book, whatever the topic.... Read More
Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton / even more enthralling than the movie
I read this book years ago and pretty much devoured it and afterwards binged all his other novels. But this one has always owned a special spot in my heart. One of the reasons why I had to get myself this special edition from Barnes & Nobles. Now, reading it the second time, it's as fascinating and enthralling as it was the first time around.... Read More
Under Currents by Nora Roberts / heavy beginning but one of my faves
Love Nora Roberts standalone novels, and this one is one of my favorites next to The Search, and Shelter in Place. And this book checked all of my boxes. I read it over three days, and I WISHED I could have curled up on a Saturday and read it all in one piece. This book deserves your uninterrupted attention - that's how good it was.... Read More
Dirty Headlines by L.J. Shen / without a doubt my most favorite LJ SHEN hero
If you know me, you know I love jerks, assholes and guys that say what they mean. I have a weakness for them - calling them my kryptonite would be an understatement. LJ SHEN is the one author that ALWAYS delivers. VICIOUS, BANE and now CÉLIAN are my top contenders. They just have the something extra that is missing from many other heroes out there.... Read More
