While this sounded really cool and I adored the first five chapters, the rest of it just didn't connect with me at all and I have no idea why.

A hot but short vampire story. Worth a look if you like lots of smut. 5 ⭐.

A fun little prequel of how a group of women set up a bookstore in their small town. 5 ⭐

A fantasy epic that's not a thousand pages long and has gay smut? Give me more! 5 ⭐! A sorcerer is gifted a spoiled brat and strains to make him behave and be obedient, but the brat has secrets of his own.

This was a great fast paced read with suspense and intense romance, with dub-con, angst, and hurt/comfort elements. When one man is caught and taken prisoner by the cartel he was photographing, he struggles against his feelings for the boss and what plays out is a bit of a mystery/thriller but with heavy smut elements. A fun read for a rainy day afternoon! 5 ⭐

This was a good middle grade, though it was a bit slow, I still liked the writing and the story. A young girl struggles with her world changing, as her parents become involved in dangerous political events. 3.5 ⭐

This was a hard book to read, as it's set in Nigeria and discusses themes like polygamy and cheating. I'm not the biggest fan of books with cheating in it. Though this was an important read, expanding my knowledge about the world and helping me learn things I wouldn't otherwise know about because hey America, aren't we doing great in the education system?!

A good story of finding home and figuring out where you belong and how to break a curse. 5 ⭐

A delightful little story of how much men fail to comprehend women, even when they use magic to make them. 5 ⭐.

I read Thrum last year. Didn't realize this was the same author, figured it out at the end of the book, and now am highly attentive to this author. Their books are captivating, smutty, mysterious and intense. This was a sci-fi with a slight twist about the planet, and the people that inhabit it. 5 ⭐

A delightful mystery with a splendid cast of characters and a light bit of romance. 4.5 ⭐

I realized I started hate reading this about halfway through, near page 200. The siblings are toxic to one another. Lying, betrayals, attempted murder. All in the name for tradition in securing a bog wife. I didn't connect with a single character, and while the writing is lyrical and the story had strong potential the payout just wasn't quite the mark for me. Hate's a strong term, more intense dislike is accurate in reading this book. The writing was good. It drew me in. But otherwise, I didn't have much of a good time. 3.5 ⭐

The bookstore was the best character in this book. 2 ⭐.

This was good, but felt like it was missing something.

A touch slow at the start,but it ended up being a twisty supernatural suspense story with a satisfying ending. 4.5 ⭐

The smut was hot

Overall, good writing but I was bored throughout most of the stories. The first story was a depressing trainwreck for the main character and the rest weren't that much better. As such this book was filled with run-on sentences, which is not my cup of tea. It was certainly very dated but as that's the time period, such can't be helped. 3.5 ⭐ rounded up generously.

A solid mystery but felt a little lackluster in some areas. A good start to a series. 3.5 ⭐

Fallen gods, a mysterious enemy and a brief but powerful story. 5 ⭐

A very good, short but depressing read. 5 ⭐

This was hot.

This was weird and confusing. While the cover is amazing, the book itself just didn't do it for me. 2.5 ⭐ rounded up.

Beautifully written, sad short story about a husband who doesn't believe in his wife's magic. 5 ⭐

A slow burn rockstar romance that's really well done. I liked all the characters and definitely intend on reading more of the series. 5 ⭐.

A steamy sci-fi with a tiny hint of plot tossed in. Barely 100 pages, this was a delightful quick read. 4.5 ⭐.
