Was More Interested in Secondary Characters

From Mum With Love by Louise Emma Clark

January 25, 2019 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that this book will be released on February 5, 2019. Also note that I received this ARC for free from NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. I ended up giving this three stars because I think the author can definitely write. I just think that I was more interested in Jess’s sister and her best friend more than I was with her and her trying to find fulfillment writing a mommy blog. I think it didn’t help that Jess was […]

The Book Was Free

Big Sexy Love by Kirsty Greenwood

January 25, 2019 by Classic 4 Comments

Right now I am on a zero dollar book budget, which isn’t that bad. I am reading things that I may have passed up on. Though now I am like, girl, get better taste in free books. “Big Sexy Love” could have been so much better. I think in the end too many absurd things were happening and Greenwood lost the plot. And I liked the idea behind the plot so much. I also wish we spent more time with Birdie. Birdie was a great […]

Three Girls and a Wedding

Three Girls and a Wedding by Rachel Schurig

January 24, 2019 by Classic Leave a Comment

I felt meh towards the first book because I realized that Ginny bugged me. This one centers on Jen who is doing what she can to move up the ranks at her PR firm. Jen cares about Ginny and Annie a lot and honestly I was on her side the whole book. I thought that Ginny and Josh sucked and so did Annie towards the end. I don’t know if I would have been so cool about forgive and forget. I did think it was […]

Pretty cover, but that’s all this book has going for it

July 21, 2017 by Mikki Blu Leave a Comment

Well, this was one of those books that is like junk food – you know it’s bad for you and yet you keep eating, or in this case reading. It’s the story of Pandy Wallis, an author of a successful series of books about a beautiful woman named Monica. Pandy is tired of writing about Monica and has written a new book, based on one of her ancestors – however her agent doesn’t think the book will sell. The book starts off with a party […]

Another great book by Liane Moriarty

May 22, 2017 by Lindzgrl Leave a Comment

It’s clear that the target reader for Liane Moriarty’s books is primarily female and, most likely, a parent and married woman. So I’m not sure why I gravitate to her books so much—I am female, but I am neither a parent nor married—but damn if I do love her stuff. When I start one of her books I am pulled in immediately and swept along the entire story. She does a fairly brilliant job of drawing up fun, interesting and complex characters, and keeping the […]

I Regret Reading This Author Back to Back

March 17, 2017 by caragwapa 3 Comments

Having enjoyed Last Night at Chateau marmont and finding The Singles Game, ok, if a little meh, I decided to read another Weisberger book. Well, not so much decided as saw that it was the next book in my unread books dropbox folder. Did I regret my lazy choice? Yes. Yes I did. Emmy, Leigh and Adriana have been best friends since college and have maintained the so-called BFF status even as they approach their 30s. The girls are of course, so different from each […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.
Dixie on Track Her Down by Melinda LeighI am just starting Track Her Down and I have read them all in order till now and thought I...
Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
