Review: Ransom – Rachel Schurig

Review: Ransom – Rachel Schurig

*I received a free ARC of Ransom from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* My Ransom Review: Ransom is the kind of story I just love to read! There is a rock star and a girl who has fallen in love with him – but it’s not your typical fangirl falling for a guy she doesn’t know at all, apart from through his music. It also features a friends to lovers part, which is one of my favorite contemporary romance tropes. I always enjoy reading about two close friends who realize they want to be much more than friends, but who are afraid to take the first step because the friendship is so important to them. Daisy is a […]

Review: Tease – Amanda Maciel

Review: Tease – Amanda Maciel

*I received a free ARC of Tease from Hachette Children’s Books via Netgalley in exchange of an honest and unbiased review* My Tease Review Tease is a hard story to read, for several reasons, one being that it is about bullying taken so far the victim takes her own life. The other thing that made it hard to read is that the whole story in Tease is from the point of view of one of the young girls who bullied Emma until she could no longer take it. And while I think it’s both interesting and courageous to write a book about bullying from that point of view, I think it also made it harder to actually connect with the […]

Review: I Am Zlatan – Zlatan Ibrahimovic, David Lagercrantz

Review: I Am Zlatan – Zlatan Ibrahimovic, David Lagercrantz

*I received a free ARC of I Am Zlatan from Random House via Netgalley in exchange of an honest and unbiased review* My I Am Zlatan Review I am Zlatan reads as a stream of consciousness from Zlatan himself. It is as if Lagercrantz wrote down everything Zlatan said during a couple of interviews, and all of the shared thoughts are a part of this book. And while a lot of it was very interesting, there certainly were some things that felt like a little too much, too. Of course, everyone who watches soccer knows who Zlatan Ibrahimovic is, and while I’m not a soccer fan, I have seen parts of his games on TV. And sure, he’s a brilliant […]

Review: Don’t Talk to Strangers – Amanda Kyle Williams

Review: Don’t Talk to Strangers – Amanda Kyle Williams

*I received a free ARC of Don’t Talk to Strangers from Bantam Books via Edelweiss in exchange of an honest review* My Don’t Talk to Strangers Review Don’t Talk to Strangers is a fantastic, devious and clever suspense story. Complete with a big fat who-dun-it, a most excellent private detective / profiler who used to work for the FBI and a possible serial killer in a small town where there are many small-minded people. Keye Street sure has her work cut out for her when the sheriff of Whisper, Georgia, calls her to ask for her services in a case where two female bodies have been found one on top of the other in the woods, close to a stream. […]
