Backlist ARC Reviews: A Rogue by Night, Consort of Fire, and Stars in Your Eyes
This is a super eclectic mix of ARCs here. We’ve got a historical romance from 2019, oops, a fantasy romance, and a contemporary romance. So quite the selection. The good news is that you can officially read all three of these books without having to wait if they sound of interest to you! I received…

2024 ARC Reviews: How You Get the Girl, A Fragile Enchantment, and An Education in Malice
These three books are all ones I received as an ARC from Netgalley and I am so grateful. Ultimately, unlike yesterday, we’re starting with the best one and then giving you the other two reviews instead of ending with the best. You know, in the name of fairness (actually, it’s just the order in which…

Nonfiction ARC Reviews: Chronic, Strong Female Character, Congratulations, the Best is Over!
The way I tend to get so overconfident as soon as I read one nonfic and decide to go on a requesting spree and then report in a full year later. Whoops! Anyway, so delighted to finally be bring you reviews for Chronic by Rebecca Dimyan, Strong Female Character by Fern Brady, and Congratulations, the…

2024 ARC Reviews: Not Your Crush’s Cauldron, The Friendship Study, and Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice
First of all, being able to read Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice early is, in and of itself, an entire reason to have a Netgalley account, but these three books also gave me another reason: I wouldn’t have read The Friendship Study for AGES if I hadn’t had the push of an ARC to prioritize…

2024 ARC Reviews: A Crown this Cold and Heavy, What Feasts at Night, and A Love Song for Ricki Wilde
I have been truly blessed with receiving audio ARC copies of some of my most anticipated books lately, which has been a gift! February has been a month of releases already and I’m so excited to be able to talk to you about the audio release of A Crown This Cold and Heavy by Stacia…

2024 ARC Reviews: Red String Theory, Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherworlds, and Ready or Not
I put these books in this post in publication order, even though the first book I read was actually Ready or Not by Cara Bastone because I was so excited when I got the ARC that I read it immediately. I love Bastone’s writing and even though this wasn’t my favorite romance from her, I…

ARC Reviews: The Hookup Plan, The Art of Scandal, and For Never & Always
So… I am very behind in reading my ARCs, but I’m trying the best I can to start catching up and these three are the first three I’m releasing to y’all! First up, we have The Hookup Plan by Farrah Rochon, which actually came out in 2022. Please don’t judge. Then we have The Art…

ARC Reviews of Inheritance, Witches Get Stuff Done, and Playing the Witch Card
This group of three ARC reviews brings you a major win that I can’t stop thinking about (Inheritance), the start of a series I’m more intrigued by than my rating suggests I should be (Witches Get Stuff Done), and a DNF because the book made me anxious (Playing the Witch Card). So all in all,…

Contemporary (Mostly) Romance (Mostly) ARC Reviews: Full Moon Over Freedom, The Long Game, and Her Own Happiness
I read some more of my ARCs! Is my Netgalley score still on the struggle bus because I can’t seem to stop requesting books? Yes. Yes, it is. But never mind that, let’s talk about three books that you can already purchase because I am, as usual, behind. First up, let’s talk about Full Moon…

Historical ARC Reviews: The Poisoner’s Ring, The Notorious Lord Knightly, and A Nobleman’s Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel
I’m really delighted to be able to give you some ARC reviews, even if they are largely months late. Oops. The Poisoner’s Ring by Kelley Armstrong is the second book in a historical mystery series that I am really addicted to at the moment. The Notorious Lord Knightly is book two in The Chessmen series…
