Pretty Girls
by Karin Slaughter Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter was a difficult read to get through. Not because the writing was poor, or it was boring, but because the content was incredibly heavy. This book is very dark and descriptive. It was a good book, but haunted me a little. Trigger warning: this book describes sexual…

All the Dangerous Things
by Stacy Willingham Woo hoo! She’s over her writing block! (She being me). I was on a mission to read at least 5 books a month. I did great in January then didn’t pick up a book all of February and most of March. But, you’ll be happy to know (or won’t care at all)…

Remarkably Bright Creatures
by Shelby Van Pelt Happy New Year, my friends! This is my first review of 2025 and was my first read of the year and it did not disappoint. I bought this book months ago and it’s been sitting on my shelf collecting dust (and probably dog hair) and it’s beautifully bright cover kept catching…

The Boyfriend
by Frieda McFadden Well…darn it. This is the first Frieda McFadden book that I’ve read that I was disappointed with. I was very excited for her newest novel, I had it pre-ordered for a couple months and looked forward to reading it because I have mostly enjoyed every book she’s written. Some I like better…

The Nightingale
by Kristin Hannah This book will be a little difficult to synopsize because it’s got so many details and intertwining stories. This book had me sobbing at the end, crying in the lamplight and trying not to wake my husband with my sniffling. I tend to stay away from historical fictions or any books that…

It Ends With Us
by Colleen Hoover Heads up – this post contains all the spoilers! This book has been a hot topic lately because of the Major Motion Picture that just hit theaters a couple weeks ago. I actually read this book a couple years ago, but I wanted to go see the movie in theaters and thought…

Hate Mail
by Donna Marchetti Guys…It’s so cute. If you liked The Hating Game (which I very much did), you will really enjoy this book. It’s a sweet and cute twist on the ‘enemies to lovers’ trope, and I’m here for it. I really do just love books like this, that put your mind in a happy…

The Housemaid Is Watching
by Freida McFadden Hello everyone! I’ve been bad at posting (not that anyone has noticed) but I’m still admitting it, even if it’s just to myself… I’ve been incredibly busy with life and have had a hard time managing to sit down and enjoy a book, however, when we were out running errands the other…

Throne of Glass
by Sarah J. Maas I took the leap and decided to try the other series by Maas. If you’ve read my other blogs, you’ll know I’ve read (and LOVED) the ACOTAR series. I have read the first book of the Crescent City novels and it was difficult to get through and I have not managed…

Funny Story
by Emily Henry Funny Story by Emily Henry, was truly that. I found myself actually laughing out loud to the witty comments made by the very likeable main characters in this fun, sweet, semi-spicy rom-com. I was a little worried going into this book, because I have tried Emily Henry’s books before and had a…
