From the first time I was introduced to Romeo and Juliet nearly 20 years ago (YIKES!), I found it odd how quickly Romeo moves on from Rosaline when he meets Juliet. When I heard about Fair Rosaline, I was so excited to read a version of the story that dives into her perspective. You could … More Review: Fair Rosaline by Natasha Solomons

Tessa Bailey is an incredibly prolific author, and I love her work. I love that she explores different kinds of people and different settings in her different series. I was intrigued by the premise of the Vine Mess books, which center around wineries in California’s Napa Valley. It also didn’t hurt that the town where … More Review: Unfortunately Yours by Tessa Bailey

I loved A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow, and its companion/sequel, A British Girl’s Guide to Hurricanes and Heartbreak is everything I could have hoped for. There’s something so special about a book in a series series that explores the point of view of a different character than the previous book. I loved … More ARC Review: A British Girl’s Guide to Hurricanes and Heartbreak by Laura Taylor Namey

I felt so seen by her writing, and the same was true of her second book. I saw a lot of … More ARC Review: Someone Like You by Meredith Schorr

It is no secret that I am a massive fan of Jane Austen’s work. Her books are smart, funny, satirical…and of course, romantic. I have read my fair share of Austen retellings over the years – good, bad, and everywhere in between. I fell in love with Accomplished, Amanda Quain’s modern telling of Pride and … More ARC Review: Ghosted by Amanda Quain

I loved Kelsey Rodkey’s first two books, Last Chance Books and A Disaster in Three Acts, and I was very excited for Plus One. It did not disappoint. First of all, I love that the cover art of Plus One includes a depiction of Lahey that is not stick thin. The reader learns that Lahey … More ARC Review: Plus One by Kelsey Rodkey

Rome might be the place in the world that I would love to visit the most. The history, the food, the architechture – just all of it feels magical to me. Because of that, I love to read books set in Rome. Ciao for Now‘s title also drew me to the book. It is a … More Ciao for Now by Kate Bromley
