Different, Not Less

July 18, 2015 by ElCicco Leave a Comment

… in my opinion, it’s not really a great idea to see people as one thing. Every person has lots of ingredients to make them into what is always a one-of-a-kind creation. We are all imperfect genetic stews. Willow Chance is 12 years old, a “person of color” adopted in infancy by two very white parents, and a genius. She seems to possess savant-like qualities that allow her to remember enormous amounts of information, understand concepts beyond her years, and pick up new languages easily. […]

Review Highlight: “Loathsome Douchecanoe”

July 17, 2015 by Mrs. Julien 4 Comments

Um. Almost? The first book in the Reed Brothers new adult romance series got me to buy the second, but I did not continue to the third. For those who like the type, the men in this family own a tattoo parlor and aren’t afraid of working out. They decorate people by day and work as bar bouncers by night. This review will show a blatant disregard for spoiler etiquette. Tall, Tatted, and Tempting Kit (real name: Emily) is a subway busker in New York. […]

A fairly uninspiring historical romance

July 17, 2015 by Malin Leave a Comment

2.5 stars Jack Featherstone’s father and brother were shameless gamblers and fortune hunters, marrying rich and squandering their wives’ money with no compunction. As the unappreciated second son, Jack swore he would never marry unless he could support his family in a proper way, and certainly never stoop to fortune hunting to secure himself a life of luxury. Never being able to rely on his male relatives meant he established closer bonds to his Eton chums instead. So when his best friend Stuart, the Duke […]
