I thought this book was adorable in a unique way. Rather than being intrigued with the plot, I was enamored with the characters. I feel that the Bennett family has a unique feel to them, from the parents down to each of Addie’s brothers, and then Addie herself. If I were to have three older … Continue reading Review: Love & Luck

Since this an anthology, I will rate the stories individually. Overall though, I enjoyed most of the stories in this collection and I loved how they all connected in some way. Usually, it was by mentioning characters that appear in other stories or the restaurants. Not to mention the themes of each were either food … Continue reading Review: Hungry Hearts
Who else feels like we're in a limbo between 2019 and 2020? Oh, good. It's not just me. This has been the weirdest work week because of it being shortened as well as it being ridiculously slow at work. Though I will say, I'm glad I don't work in retail anymore because dealing with returns … Continue reading Books I’m Looking Forward to in 2020
With Christmas on the way, I'm sure we're all busy shopping for our loved ones and maybe even doing some bonus shopping for others. I personally love being able to gift books to others, especially when I know they'll most likely enjoy the book or have had their eye on it for some time. I … Continue reading Books I’d Give as a Gift
Perfect Chemistry is a classic tale of girl meets boy from the wrong side of the tracks, as well as a classic tale of a bet that turns into more. Alex Fuentes makes a bet with another member of his gang involving the school "princess" Brittany Ellis, which ends up leading into the two falling … Continue reading Perfect Chemistry – Review
I didn't like this book as much as I was hoping I would, but I didn't totally hate it either. Louna is somewhat cynical when it comes to relationships, but she has her reasons. Her first real relationship ended tragically, and she works for her mother's wedding planning company, which means she's seen wedding of … Continue reading Once and For All – Review
To put it simply, Waiting for Tom Hanks is adorable! It was like reading one of my favorite romantic-comedies; it was full of romance and fun, quirky characters with their own problematic pasts that they work through. The book is full of references to old movies and TV shows that had me feeling nostalgic the … Continue reading Waiting For Tom Hanks – Review

Daisy's summer plans are uprooted as she and her family travel to Scotland to stay with her sister in advance of the wedding. This way the families can meet because although Daisy's sister … Continue reading Royals – Review
I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud so much while reading a book! I loved Norris' brand of sarcastic humor, and he's not afraid to direct it at himself either. He's so snarky and I just loved his entire demeanor (granted, I'm a very sarcastic person, so Norris felt like my long-lost brother). … Continue reading The Field Guide to the North American Teenager – Review
Standing By is an excellent teen/ya novel that's great for any age! It's told in alternating points of view (like a lot of ya novels), but I found that I could really relate to these characters with some of the things they go through with their friends, family, and their emotions. Like Eric, I myself … Continue reading Standing By – Review
This was a great book to kick-off my summer reading! I loved the whole Italian experience that came with this book and it has me wanting to get a plane ticket and just spend the next few months in Italy! Heck, I felt like I was there - it was written beautifully! I loved getting … Continue reading Love & Gelato – Review
