We read this book on our roadtrip. Overall it was a good book. It was an interesting plot line and with all the negatives the book pushed on and I still found myself curious what would happen to our main character. I enjoyed the creative ‘extras’ at the end of each section of the book. They…

A long winded book about a girl finding her ground.“A love triangle between two college friends and a charismatic professor alters the lives …” *Possible SPOILER* No. I’m going to say that isn’t true. One of the corners of the triangle has a handful of pages where she even interacts with the professor. *End –…

A reluctant 3 stars.This one was a hard one for me to review. The writing really bothered me for some reason. The writing felt very fluffed. There was a lot of internal thinking that didn’t add anything to the story. The sentences didn’t seem to flow well. I just felt that while I was reading my…

I’m torn what I should rate it! I’d like to start off by saying ‘The Secret History” is one of my favorite books. That is the book that made me put Donna Tartt on a pedestal. When I saw some of the reviews before reading coming out as negative I was blown away. How? These…

Listen, I feel bad about the 3 stars.. but hear me out. I didn’t know this was going to be a planned 3 part series. If so, I’m not sure how interested I would be in investing my time in this series when I picked up the first book. But … here I am and…

Don’t hate me … I know I’m going to get a lot of push back on this … but this book just wasn’t that good … Overall the story of trying to expose what the media and powers that be are doing to innocent people going in to the industry? Totally overshadowed by the greed…

We have the same birthday! (Kinda) I’m not sure how to feel about this book. It was okay. A little exhausting. A little boring. In the end I finished it, so it couldn’t have been that bad? I think I have to give up on this author. I liked one of her books and have…

A weird, wild ride … I am a big fan of Lisa Jewell and this wasn’t her best work. As I think back to this now I have happy thoughts about the book. The odd little girl, the odd tangles … yet in the end it was still just plainly, odd. It didn’t seem to…

Not for me … This is a 2.5, rounded up to 3 star book. I can’t even put my finger on what was off about this book, but something was just OFF. It just wouldn’t end. The ‘twist’ was meh. The characters, meh. It’s the kind of story that your friend tells you at a…

This was a hard rating to give! I am a HUGE Tana French fan. HUGE. So sitting here thinking about this book, I’m like what was this? This felt like nothing like her older books. The writing felt like a completely different author. I will never downgrade a review based on not liking a character…
