HaBO: She Transfer to a European University
This HaBO is from Anna, who wants to find this romance: I recently came across this scene from a new book an author was self promoting on Instagram and looked it up on Goodreads but I guess I forgot to add it. She’s probably not as well known or maybe an indie author. It was one of those pictures of the excerpts. The heroine is a transfer student to Eastern or Central Europe, most likely … Continue reading HaBO: She Transfer to a European University

Book Review
Star Shipped by Cat Sebastian
This book is exemplary. It can literally be held up as an actual example of what a romance novel should be. I am in awe. But before I wax lyrical about the many ways in which this book is excellent, let’s set the scene. Simon and Charlie are co-stars on a sci-fi TV series and for the seven years that the show has been running, they’ve been fighting, squabbling, and disagreeing. Simon is considering leaving … Continue reading Star Shipped by Cat Sebastian

Whatcha Reading? February 2026, Part Two
Welcome back! It’s the last day of February and here’s how we’re wrapping up the month: Sarah: Alpha, Omega, and Update: Blind Date with a Werewolf is an anthology that came out last year and focuses on Asil, a side character. I read that after Cry Wolf because series order is a meaningless construct that doesn’t apply to me. Ha ha! Now I’m reading book two, Hunting Ground. Lara: I had a bit of a … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? February 2026, Part Two
