Why Did I Read? Sporty YA contemporaries are 100% my jam and football? That’s a no brainer for me! My Thoughts: Ladies and gentlemen, we have another book to add my to 2020 favorites list! Throw Like A Girl was such a delight – I absolutely loved it and it was exactly what I needed to read right now. There is so much to love about this one and the first thing I have to address is, I love when […]

Why Did I Read? The great outdoors! Hiking! It’s my thing! Plus I loved Jenn Bennett’s YA contemporary last year too! My Thoughts: I could not have picked a more perfect time to read Starry Eyes. I was on a multi day backpacking hiking trip in New Zealand when I read it! I was literally out in the forest and the great outdoors as I read about Zorie and Lennon hacking it out there. Firstly, a little bit of background: I […]

Eric has been struggling a bit, especially with his brother gone […]

If you didn’t know, I have a Football Friday feature and also have an undying love of football as well as of Mr. Darcy. It’s a wonder I even waited this long to read this book!

My audiobook reviews will be split into two parts — The Sound and The Story where I’ll review the audio itself and then review what I thought about the story. The Sound: I really liked the narrator! She was exactly how I’d picture DJ to sound like plus the Wisconsin accent was great. I swear I started thinking in an accent on days when I’d listen to large chunks of the audio! The Story: A girl who plays football. How […]
