Book Review – Night Gem – DNF

Night Gem by Erica Xenne has such an amazing book cover, how on earth could I turn down the opportunity to read this? I tried to read this book multiple time, I stopped and started, put it down, picked it back up, and would try again, but I could not finish this book.  The furthest […]

Book Review – Luca – DNF

Luca is a mafia/small town romance book by Jennifer Marcia.  I happen to love romance books, especially of the mafia variety, so I was eager to dive into this book and read it. I lasted 17%. Honestly, I want to say I found at least some redeeming qualities about this book, but I truly didn’t.  […]

Book Review – Love on the Brain

The book club I joined recently chose Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood to read for the April book, and while I truly had no interest in reading this book overall, it was the choice, so I went along with it.  This book has over 15,000 reviews, and most of them are positive, and […]

Book Review – Former.ly

I did not expect to like Former.ly: The Rise and Fall of a Social Network by Dane Cobain. As a matter of fact, as intrigued as I was by the plot, I was fully expecting to dislike it as I went through the book, and I was very much proved wrong.  This book starts out […]

Book Review – What Lies Beyond the Veil – DNF

What Lies Beyond the Veil by Harper L. Woods and Adelaide Forrest has over 12,000 4+ star reviews.  This book is currently in the top 100 list of books on Amazon, and so many people seem to absolutely adore it. 

And honestly, I cannot fathom why. I DNF’d this book at 57% of the way through because I truly couldn’t take it anymore. No, that is a lie, it isn’t that I couldn’t take it anymore, it is that I was actively thinking about other books while I was reading this book, and just decided to read something that didn’t bore me.

Book Review – The Hunchback

The Hunchback of Notre Dame has never been my favorite Disney move, nor has it ever been a book I was actually interested in reading (sorry Victor Hugo).   However, I love Regine Abel’s books, and I assumed her novel, The Hunchback, would be no different. As a side note, I think the hardest part about […]

I got Covid

I have been posting erratically for a little while, and that boils down to I have been trying to keep up with my writing, my personal life, my full time job, my crafting, and everything else and then I got Covid on top of it. Rather than continue to try to push through I am […]
