To All The Boys I've Loved Before  Series: To All The Boys I've Loved Before #1  Author: Jenny Han Published: April 15th, 2014 by Simon & Schuster  Pages: 355 My Rating:  ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ But now that I think about it, that seems to be all I’ve ever wanted.

March TBR

Here we are again, another TBR that I probably won't follow. I get excited to plan out my monthly TBRs, but I hardly ever follow them. This month, I have some great books, but now I don't know where to start!  This Woven Kingdom      This Woven Kingdom was released on February 1st and is already receiving excellent reviews and a lot of hype. My favorite troupe in the world is forbidden love/star-crossed lovers, so I am very excited to pick this one up. Mafi has loosely based this book on Persian Mythology, and you know that there will be beautiful pros because of Mafi's writing style.                                                                                    Home Before Dark      I've only read The Last Time I Lied by Sager, but I can already tell you he is one of my favorite thriller authors. He truly knows how to make his readers feel like he is a part of the book. He takes the time to set up the atmosphere, and before you realize what's happening, you'

Kindle Unlimited Book Review: The Pack by Kristin Coley

  The Pack Author: Kristin Coley Pages: 232 Published: August 31st 2018  Source: Kindle Unlimited  Rating: 3.5 Stars Author's Website Now and again, I get an urge for a book that gives me Twilight feels. I fell in love with Twilight before it became the "must-read" book in the late 2000s. The love I had for Twilight will never be replicated because it's what gave me my passion for reading, but now and again, I'll find a book that has the same themes and atmosphere Twilight had, and it takes me back.      This book gives me if Bella would have fallen in love with Sam feels. In The Pack, the wolves are the kids that seem untouchable. Everyone in town knows there's something strange about this group of people, but no one seems to know precisely what makes them different. The kids at school call them "The Pack" because they seem so loyal to their clique that they don't have much to do with anyone else. The group is so exclusive that no one seems to b

Review: Becoming Alpha by Aileen Erin

Title: Becoming Alpha  Author: Aileen Erin  Genre: Paranormal Fantasy  Pages: 267 Goodreads Overall Rating: 4.11 Published:  December 17th, 2013 by Ink Monster, LLC   My Rating:  I can’t do that. I can’t turn my emotions off and on like that. I’m either all in or all out. And if you can’t do that—if I don’t come first, then for God’s sake, leave me alone. Becoming Alpha is the true definition of YA paranormal fantasy and I devoured it. Erin took troupes that are known in YA and ran with them in fun, plausible, and exciting ways while taking her own spin on them. I sped through this book and right after I downloaded the next book in the series because I couldn't wait for the two-day shipping of the physical book.  At the beginning of the book, we meet our main character Tessa and her family. Tessa has an unusual gift and it has marked her as the odd girl out at and causing her to feel isolated. With her family wanting to give her a sense o

This is my first Bible study by  The Daily Grace Co . Waiting for Advent is a Bible study that focuses on the season of waiting, and how Jesus can fulfill all the longings of our hears.

Book Talk: I'm a Bad Closer

Okay I have a problem, and I hope I'm not alone. I love a good series, but I get very emotionally involved. So when the end of a series comes around I get excited to see how it will all end, but the more I love a series the more likely I am to put off reading the last book. I don't want the story to end, and let's be honest many authors kill off characters in the end causing us book lovers to die a little inside. I don't like saying goodbye to characters, and this lead me to the idea of sharing a list of series I love but can't make myself finish. Kingdom of Ash This is the last book in  Throne of Glass series  , and I am not ready for what could happen. The book before this ended in such a crazy way I'm not sure I will make it through the last book. I went to start reading it, and I just wasn't ready and had to walk away. I am so emotionally involved in this series I feel like the characters are family, and I'm not ready to see how their sto
