Goodreads vs. Books I’m Nominating for The Swoon Awards
Should I really add my two cents to all the discourse about the Goodreads Choice Awards? Probably not. But am I going to? Yes. Here’s the thing. I’ve read 100 contemporary romance books this year, of which 53 were published this year. I’ve read 102 romance novels of other sub-genres this year, a good many…

October ARC Reviews: A Twist of Fate, Not Your Average Hot Guy, and The Vanished Days
October had several of the books I have been most looking forward to release and yet, I’ve been struggling to read my ARCs and am impatiently waiting for my finished copies to arrive of all of these books and then they do and I still haven’t been picking them up. Ahh. The struggle. But nevertheless,…

Three More ARC Reviews: All the Feels, Christmas in Rose Bend, and The Lady Gets Lucky
If you’re having a hard time staying up to date with new releases, please let me know. I would love to know it’s not just me. Also, are you even invested in staying up to date with new releases? I’m genuinely curious about this. The problem with having a Netgalley addiction is that I’m supposed…

September Contemporary ARC Reviews: The Shaadi Set Up, A Lot Like Adiós, and With You Forever
September has been a good month for contemporary romances in my view because all three of these books were excellent. They are also all out because even when I’m closer to on time with my reviews than I’ve been in a while, I’m still running late with them. I have to thank Netgalley an the…

August Wrap Up
So… “August slipped away like a moment in time” is definitely an apt lyric because wow, did the month fly by. Although somehow the first week of August when I was on vacation feels like it happened years ago. Weird how that works. Somehow (vacation probably) I got my reading groove back and managed to…

Catching Up on ARC Reviews: What the Hex, What If You & Me, and Well, This is Exhausting
Lately I’ve really been trying to “theme” my ARC reviews and have three books that are at least in the same genre. But this set of reviews is coming to you courtesy of my reading slump that has meant reading books for review has been… slow. And therefore, I have three books to tell you…

Favorite Books of Winter (Jan-Mar)
It is time for one of my favorite posts to make! I have made this list a little odd this time, in which I have six favorite favorites and four honorable mentions. Probably I should have just made this a 1-10 sort of situation, but that’s not what I did. So far this year, I’ve…

#SpringIntoLoveBingo: Announcement and TBR
Pandemic life means still searching for joy and grabbing onto every scrap of it you can find. Or at least, it does for me. So I am thrilled to be showing off the #SpringIntoLoveBingo board and sharing with you my excessive TBR. Also, there are a couple of prompts that I’m just hoping I stumble…

Book Recommendations for Aquarians
Aquariuses are Air signs like me (a Libra), although this line from Cosmo makes them sound way more exciting than I’ve ever been: “Aquarians not only want to save the world, but they’ve got the engineering and intellectual smarts to actually have a plan on how to do it too.” They also apparently keep things…
