  • Catch Up ARCs: Historical Edition – The Queer Principles of Kit Webb and The Rebel and the Rake

    These reviews are various amounts of delayed, but if y’all have TBRs like mine, you may not have gotten around to reading The Queer Principles of Kit Webb by Cat Sebastian or The Rebel and the Rake by Emily Sullivan yet, so hopefully these reviews can still be helpful! Thank you to netgalley for both…

    February Wrap Up & March TBR

    I know February is a short month, but somehow I feel like it truly flew by. I finally managed to finish The Wheel of Time series so here’s hoping my attention span will allow me to return to reading romance and a variety of authors because I have missed my HEAs. I think I’m going…

  • February ARC Reviews, Part Two: Good Girl Complex and Hunt the Stars

    And today I have two more February releases to review for you! I was fortunate enough to receive advanced copies of both Good Girl Complex by Elle Kennedy and Hunt the Stars by Jessie Mihalik via Netgalley, but I wound up purchasing both audiobooks from Audible so I listened to them instead. And now, let’s…

    January Wrap Up

    Y’all, I’m going to be honest. My mental health has been a bit of a mess the last month or so. I’m not really sure what’s going on, but it’s been a bit of a struggle and I do not appreciate it. So, if I continue to be chaotic in terms of a posting schedule…

    #SnowInLoveBingo Recommendations

    This post is something I love putting together every season and also hate putting together because it’s such a huge project! But I do love getting to shout about the books that I love. I always worry I’m a little repetitive in shouting out the same books over and over, but I figure y’all probably…
