Why Did I Read? I was SO excited to hear that Rae Carson was coming out with a new fantasy series! I adored her Girl of Fire and Thorns series, so I could not have been more elated! My Thoughts: First off, this book was not what I expected at all. I think I was expecting a fantasy akin to Rae’s previous series but Walk On Earth A Stranger felt primarily historical fiction with just a touch of fantasy. For me, this didn’t pose a problem […]
Why Did I Read? I’ve seriously loved all of Megan Erickson’s books so this was a no brainer! My Thoughts: I was so happy to be back with the Paytons! I just love all members of this crazy family and couldn’t wait to get Brent’s story. Since Dirty Thoughts, I was excited for Brent because he’s just a funny, carefree, guy.

Emmy and Oliver were best friends as kids and next door neighbors — until Oliver’s dad kidnapped him and everyone’s lives changed. Now, ten years later, he’s back. Everyone wants him to hate his dad […]
Why Did I Read? I really enjoyed the first and was interested to see what was in store for some of the other characters! My Thoughts: I was super intrigued to see how I was going to like reading from Josh’s POV. I mean, let’s be honest, he’s kind of a douche. But the thing is, he knows it and doesn’t try to make excuses for it. Also, in this one we get to see more of him and his […]
