Some romantic books I read this summer and am reviewing now to reach a double Cannonball

Fangirl, the Manga: Volume 3 by Rainbow Rowell and Gabi Nam

Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha

How the Wallflower Was Won by Eva Leigh

Knockout by Sarah Maclean

Fangirl, the Manga: Volume 3 – Rainbow Rowell and Gabi Nam Rating: 4 stars This August saw the release of the third installment of Rainbow Rowell’s manga version of Fangirl, my absolute favourite of her books (did I just buy a fancy tenth-anniversary edition, even though I own it in three other formats, NOT counting the mangas? You betcha). Cath is still struggling at college. Her writing partner Nick steals the story they’ve been working on together and makes her seem unreasonable for being upset […]

What I read when everything is falling apart

Deal With the Devil by Kit Rocha

The Devil You Know by Kit Rocha

July 8, 2022 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

The consequence of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade and their signaling that they will be paving the way for the fascists is having immediate consequences in my life. In a few months my life will be very different and possibly significantly worse. It might be ok, but I have an anxiety disorder, so I’ll be catastrophizing for a good while. I feel like everything is falling apart and there’s nothing I can d to stop it. Since I can’t do anything […]

Mercenary librarians with hearts of gold

Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha

January 16, 2021 by teresaelectro 7 Comments

When I read the premise for Kit Rocha’s Deal with the Devil, I immediately knew I would love it. Nina is an information broker with a mission–she and her team of mercenary librarians use their knowledge to save the hopeless in a crumbling America. Knox is the bitter, battle-weary captain of the Silver Devils. His squad of supersoldiers went AWOL to avoid slaughtering innocents, and now he’s fighting to survive. They’re on a deadly collision course and the passion that flares between them only makes […]
