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.

Something Borrowed came recommended from Singh. Continue reading “Book Review: Something Borrowed by Louisa George”
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.

I requested this book completely based on its synopsis. It’s a m/m romance set on a cooking reality show like Top Chef. Um YES PLEASE!? I was definitely hoping it would live up to how exited I was for a book based on that awesomeness. And it so did! Continue reading “Book Review: Under the Knife by Laurin Kelly”

Are you in a book club? Do you ever participate in group/buddy reads? Does reading a book with others change your overall perception of the work? I recently read the first two books of Nora Roberts’ The Guardian’s Trilogy, Stars of Fortune and Bay of Sighs, with friends and it made me wonder…
