Shipped by Angie Hockman | Romance Novel Review

Don’t worry guys; in between all these presidents, I’m still reading a LOT of romance novels. The thing is that, sometimes, I don’t have anything interesting to say. That is not the case (I think) with this one – which at once was super cute but also set off some pet peeves of mine. Let me explain!

We created our own reading challenge | Reading Challenge Announcement

Wherein Gretchen and Michaela talk about the mini challenges they are plaining to use to help guide their buddy reads this year! We have been known in the past to use similar challenges to help us pick book club books and we also use them to help make sure that we are stepping out of our comfort zones and reading books that represent more than just our own experiences.

Soulswift by Megan Bannen | ARC Review

Did I really do it? Did I really read a YA book PLUS an ARC on time? I really, really did. I’m so proud! This book ripped out all my emotional insides and I give it four stars. Now, back to wallowing in my book hangover.

American President Reading Challenge Ep. 4 – TR to Coolidge

Yeehaw, here we go again! Ep. 4 of my reading challenge log gets us from the first Roosevelt to Calvin Coolidge, minus Warren. G. Harding. Sorry, Warren!

You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle | Book Review

This time around, I review a single romance novel instead of, um, 90. This is one of my top 5 books this year and certainly top funniest book I’ve read so far. There are spoilers as far as this is a romance novel and it follows the entirely predictable HOA ending.
