As I was reading this one, I began to hope that there wouldn’t be a HEA as I wanted this book to be the start of a series. This became such a strong feeling that I stopped reading at 78% and emailed the book’s publicist to ask. I am delighted to report that it is indeed the start of a series! Yes! The Honorable Ginevra Bishop is a treasure and someone I would love to … Continue reading The Oxford Guide to Scandal and Lies by Kate Westbury →

This one was so good, you guys. This is one of the most irresistible, easy-to-love YA reads of the year.

Pining for You is going to end up being a book I go back to again and again – a rare thing for me, as I … Continue reading Pining for You by Stef Ferrari →

Heather is one of those books that’s so hard to review because I want to say as little about it as possible while shouting its praise from the rooftops. It’s an intriguing and surprising mystery with a strong sense of place, and it also explores the bonds between sisters. If you liked God of the Woods you’ll like Heather (but Heather is better, IMO). The novel takes place in dual timelines between the present day … Continue reading Heather by Caitlin Mullen →
