Book Review: Wait For It by Mariana Zapata

Wait For It is Mariana Zapata’s 6th book and I’ve read all of them this year. She’s a self published author that quickly became one that I heard about in a variety of reader groups that became really hard to ignore! And when I gave in to read the first one – Kulti – the rest quickly followed. It’s the same for most people who read her books because they just draw you in and Wait For It is no different from the rest. Continue reading “Book Review: Wait For It by Mariana Zapata”

Book Review: Liquid Lies by Hanna Martine

This is a book that I’ve had on my Kindle for awhile and just never got around to reading it for no particular reason. I hate when that happens and with each new release my TBR gets longer and longer so these kinds of books sort of get pushed aside. I finally chose to get to it this past week to see if it’s a series I’d be interested in continuing. Continue reading “Book Review: Liquid Lies by Hanna Martine”

Book Review: Trust by Jana Aston

Trust is book 3 in Jana Aston’s Wrong Trilogy but the first I’ve reviewed on here – mainly because I read them insanely quickly! A bookish friend of mine kept telling me I had to read these and that I would love Trust in particular. When I finally gave in I read all three in as many days because they’re really well-written, laugh out loud funny, but really touching all at the same time. The combination is really unbeatable.

Book Review: Something Borrowed by Louisa George

I look for book recommendations from all sorts of sources – other review bloggers, book friends, I’ll take them from pretty much anywhere. Once I know I can trust the books are to my preferences I’ll listen to them across genres and look forward to reading different recs. One of my favorite sources for them is various authors that I follow. A few authors that I love both their books and their recommendations are Sarina Bowen, Jen Frederick, and Nalini Singh. Something Borrowed came recommended from Singh. Continue reading “Book Review: Something Borrowed by Louisa George”

Book Review: What Remains by Garrett Leigh

I’m a sucker for beautiful covers so this book was a no brainer for me to pick up – the cover is beautiful. And in a sea of awful covers in m/m this one definitely stands out. Jodi and Rupert have a pretty happy life together until Jodi is in a pretty severe accident which takes him months to recover and leaves him without any memory of their relationship – or of even being gay.  Continue reading “Book Review: What Remains by Garrett Leigh”

Book Review: Daring Fate by Megan Erickson

Megan Erickson writes a little bit of everything – her New Adult Bowler University series is great, her m/m Trust the Focus series is one of the most recommended ones I hear about, and her co-authored Strong Signal is among my favorites of the last year. And then she had to go and announce that she was writing in a whole new genre – paranormal *and* m/m. Two of my favorite genres combined, I had no doubts that she would be able to do it well since she seems to be able to cross over the different genres pretty easily. Continue reading “Book Review: Daring Fate by Megan Erickson”

Book Review: Heartless by Marissa Meyer

This was the book that I started immediately upon returning from BEA back in May. And the one that I was willing to wait in line for a really long time both to get a ticket for the autograph and then again to actually GET the autograph of the author. And as a fangirl…it was completely worth it! Marissa Meyer was really sweet and nice to the fans in front of me and me as well. I told her how much I loved The Lunar Chronicles and particularly the audio versions and she agreed that the narration was amazing. Continue reading “Book Review: Heartless by Marissa Meyer”
