Review: Letters to the Lost by Brigid Kemmerer

Review: Letters to the Lost by Brigid Kemmerer

My Thoughts: I don’t generally gravitate toward the heavier contemporaries. I don’t really know why, I guess because when I read a contemporary I’m looking for something lighter? Anyway, I don’t read heavier ones often, I tend to be pretty picky when it comes to the more serious ones. That being said, I’m really glad I read Letters to the Lost! Juliet’s mother died and she is coping by writing her letters at her grave but who knew someone would find […]

Why Did I Read? Well, I love retellings and I also love all things fandom so this was basically a match made in heaven! My Thoughts: I loved this book so much! It’s definitely one of my top favorites of the year. I remember feeling like I just wanted to cry because of how much I loved it. One of the biggest reasons is the aspect of fandom. I think fandom is such an amazing entity and while it can […]

The Sound: I thought the narrator Arielle DeLisle did a fantastic job! Her voice for Molly was pretty much how I would imagine it and she did great distinctions between different characters. I’d definitely listen to other audiobooks by her! The Story: Let me start off by saying there was quite a bit I liked in The Upside of Unrequited Love but I just really wasn’t a fan of the romance and a lot of aspects surrounding it really brought the book […]

So recently I binge read the entire To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before series by Jenny Han. Here’s the thing. I am and always will be a fantasy gal. Contemporaries aren’t my go to so I was a little nervous heading into the series. I couldn’t have been more  surprised by how much I loved it! I had so many thoughts and feelings as I read through these books and I think the best way for me to articulate them […]

Review: Accidentally On Purpose by Jill Shalvis

Review: Accidentally On Purpose by Jill Shalvis

My Thoughts: I always love diving into a Jill Shalvis romance because I know I’m going to love it! Accidentally on Purpose was no different! I was swept up into Elle and Archer’s story. Elle is a very independent woman who knows how to take care of herself and works hard to succeed at her job and school. She knows exactly what she needs to do to build a good life for herself because she certainly hadn’t had a great start […]
