Review: All He Ever Dreamed (The Kowalskis #6) – Shannon Stacey

Review: All He Ever Dreamed (The Kowalskis #6) – Shannon Stacey

*I received a free ARC of All He Ever Dreamed from Carina Press via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* All He Ever Dreamed is the story about Josh, the youngest Kowalski brother, and Katie who grew up with them – and who is practically one of the guys. She hangs out with the guys during ball games, and is just as good at shouting at the TV as they are. She is the town’s barber, and the one who usually cuts Josh’s hair. When Katie’s mom is sick, and conspiring to get Josh and Katie together, it is decided that Katie should stay a while at the lodge – and that’s when the sparks start flying – even […]

Review: The First Rule of Swimming – Courtney Angela Brkic

Review: The First Rule of Swimming – Courtney Angela Brkic

*I received a free ARC of The First Rule of Swimming from Little, Brown via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* The First Rule of Swimming is a haunting, beautiful and fragile tale of two sisters, their mother, their cousin and their grand-father. The action takes place between a small island in Croatia – Rosmarina – and New York, as part of the family fled during the cold war, in order to escape imprisonment. The way both parts of the family suffered from this separation, their fears, their new knowledge, and the fact that they no longer could stay in contact was truly heart-breaking. Hidden among the story of this Croatian family is both the bond between the two […]

Review: This Girl (Slammed #3) – Colleen Hoover

Review: This Girl (Slammed #3) – Colleen Hoover

*I received a free ARC of This Girl form Atria via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* This Girl is such a wonderful book I’m almost at a loss for words! The third book in the Slammed trilogy continues after the last events in Point of Retreat, but there are some flashbacks when Will tells Lake about his feelings during the tumultuous start of their relationship. It is so beautiful to see how Will was feeling, and what he was thinking, from the first time he saw Lake arrive across the street, to much later in the story. I have to admit I was a little scared to read this book – how in the world could it live […]

Review: Runes – Ednah Walters

Review: Runes – Ednah Walters

*I received a free ARC of Runes from Firetail Publishing via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.* Runes is the story of Raine, and how she deals with her life when everything she thought of as normal ends up not being all that normal after all. Runes is a descriptive title as well, as there is Norse mythology, seemingly young people using a knife-like instrument to make runes with, and Raine trying to figure out what it all means.

Review: The Best Man – Kristan Higgins

Review: The Best Man – Kristan Higgins

*I received a free ARC of The Best Man from Harelquin Books via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* The Best Man is exactly the kind of contemporary romance I love to immerse myself in! Cute little tourist town upstate New York. Quirky and seeminlgy ‘real’ heroine. A hot and brooding alpha-male – whom Faith is trying her best to hate, and who does his best to show her his disdain. A big family that is united in many ways, but where they all still feel shattered by their mother’s death twenty years ago. Romance, hot and steamy make-out scenes – and The Best Man has all the ingredients for success! Subscribe to Blog via Email Enter your email […]
