Review: Taking the Heat by Victoria Dahl

Posted January 15, 2016 by Wendy in Reviews / 1 Comment

My Thoughts: I enjoyed this one! Veronica is a very relatable character. Everyone thinks she has everything together but inside she has a lot of insecurities and concerns and feels like she can’t show anyone who the real her is, not even her closest friends. Then she meets Gabe. Gabe is the sexy librarian you wish your library had! He’s super sweet, adventurous and loves the outdoors. He rock climbs, volunteers at the fire station and is all around just […]

The Sound: It’s Fiona Hardingham and Steve West. Apparently I listened to three audiobooks in a row narrated by Fiona and two of them also had Steve West. THEY ARE AMAZING. Seriously. Love them. The Story: This is my first Maggie Stiefvater book! And now I know I need to read all her books! I thought the writing in The Scorpio Races was beautiful and I adored the story! I’m a big horse person. I loved horses as a kid and […]

Review: Dirty Talk by Megan Erickson

Posted October 26, 2015 by Wendy in Reviews / 7 Comments

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. He’s the one who tells the jokes and he had me cracking up continuously in the previous book. In Dirty Talk, […]
