After reading several warnings that this book was different than anything else Emily Henry has written, I was nervous to start it. But once my library hold came in while I was on vacation, and I opened up the first page, I was instantly hooked by the magic of her incredible writing. I fell in… Continue reading Review | Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry

Review | Secretly Yours by Tessa Bailey
I've adored every single Tessa Bailey book I've read, so I was super excited to check out this series. I grew up gardening with my mom and I identified with Hallie's affinity for plants and sunny personality.

Review | Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross
My coworkers and I are facilitating travelling annotations between us and in the first round I'm reading Divine Rivals which is one of my coworker's fave books. I haven't really read a YA fantasy since I was in high school so I was excited to try a super popular recent release and Divine Rivals delivered.… Continue reading Review | Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross
New Release | Unloved by Peyton Corinne
After not really loving Unsteady (I'm not a huge fan of black cat fmcs), I was hesitant to pick up Peyton Corinne's second book, but I'm so happy I did because Unloved delivered in so many ways that the first book fell short. Following Ro's journey of self-love was such a fun and wild ride.… Continue reading New Release | Unloved by Peyton Corinne
Review | Daydream by Hannah Grace
After being absolutely obsessed with Wildfire, I didn't think it was possible for me to love a Hannah Grace book even more but I absolutely adored Daydream and finally getting Henry's much-anticipated story. Henry was an absolutely adorable mmc, I loved how straightforward and communicative he was about his feelings. The dates he took Halle… Continue reading Review | Daydream by Hannah Grace

The idea of the main character Faye being a Jewitch, a witch who practices rituals based in Judaism, was novel to me but the execution of the book left much to be desired. From the beginning, it's easy to figure out… Continue reading Review | Magical Meet Cute by Jean Seltzer

Compassionate, empathetic, and sensitive. These are words that describe your average Pisces including Vanessa Mazur, assistant to Canadian football player Aiden Graves. Throughout the story, she is consistently empathetic and understanding of Aiden's rollercoaster of emotions, even though he doesn't always treat her the way she deserves. At first, he takes Vanessa for granted, and… Continue reading Astrology Reads: Pisces | The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata
Review | Not in the Plan by Dana Hawkins
I absolutely adored this debut sapphic love story from Dana Hawkins. Being a former barista and currently living in Seattle, I related to Charlie from the first page. From her love of tattoos to her hatred of complicated, contradictory coffee orders, her personality reminded me of myself. Charlie was a character I was rooting for… Continue reading Review | Not in the Plan by Dana Hawkins
