Rachel Lynn Solomon, one of my favorite authors, posted about how much she loved Sizzle Reel on Instagram, and I knew I had to go to NetGalley to request it right away. I was thrilled when I was approved. Sizzle Reel hooked me immediately. The first chapter opens with narration from Luna about how attracted … More ARC Review: Sizzle Reel by Carlyn Greenwald
I have read and enjoyed all three of the books in Mazey Edding’s A Brush with Love series. (You can read my review of A Brush with Love here). I love a series like this one where the author explores the lives of each of the members of a friend group or family in a … More ARC Review: The Plus One by Mazey Eddings
It is no secret that I love Rachel Lynn Solomon’s work. I have been eagerly awaiting Business or Pleasure since it was announced, and it certainly did not disappoint. I love the way Solomon weaves her characters’ Judaism into her stories. Finn’s mom is a rabbi, but certainly not a stereotypical one. She went to … More ARC Review: Business or Pleasure by Rachel Lynn Solomon
I absolutely loved the Princess Diaries series and have been their avid reader since 2000 when they first were published. I, of course, was thrilled when the series was continued with an adult Mia with Royal Wedding in 2015. I eagerly started reading A Quarantine Princess Diaries. I realized as started reading that I’d blocked … More ARC Review: The Quarantine Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot
I read the first two books in the Finlay Donovan series, and I was eager to see what kind of shenanigans Vero and Finlay would get up to in this third installment in the series. I think I would have been a little bit lost if I hadn’t read the other two books in the … More ARC Review: Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun by Elle Cosimano
I loved the Brown Sisters trilogy that Talia Hibbert wrote. I loved the way she captured characters who were mentally ill and plus-size. That representation continued in Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute. Brad has OCD and does seem to manage it very well. There are a few moments where those around him notice his compulsive … More ARC Review: Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by Talia Hibbert
As a fan of Jane Austen and Bridgerton, I was intrigued by the premise of A Spinster’s Guide to Danger and Dukes (even through it’s set in Victorian England and not the Regency period). This series definitely has Bridgerton vibes. The characters are similarly concerned with propriety and appearances. Poppy is concerned that she will … More ARC Review: A Spinster’s Guide to Danger and Dukes by Manda Collins
If you know me, you know that I love the musical Six, which is about the six wives of Henry VIII. I have been eager to learn more about the real women Henry married. I was eager to read Tudors in Love and spend some time with the Tudors, especially the queens who have fascinated … More ARC Review: Tudors in Love by Sarah Gristwood
This Jewish girl loves Christmas, so get ready for Christmas romance reviews coming your way. You’re a Mean One, Matthew Prince grabbed me immediately from the title. It immediately implied a fun and whimsical story, which the book definitely delivered. Matthew starts the book as a young and spoiled child of extreme privilege, cut off … More Review: You’re a Mean One, Matthew Prince by Timothy Janovksy
I have loved all of Emma Lord’s novels. Her writing has an unrelenting energy and charisma that just flies off every page. She makes you feel like her main characters are speaking to you and like you are their close friend. Begin Again feels darker than Lord’s other books. It prominently features grief over the … More ARC Review: Begin Again by Emma Lord
