Summer RomCom Recap

Summer is coming to an end (I’m honestly relieved because it gets WAY too hot in summer lol), but I decided to share some “beach reads” I tried. Who knows, maybe they’ll help you summer-lovers extend the season in your hearts or something but some of these actually fit the pumpkin spice season just fine.

One-line Reviews: Summer 2023

Although I’m still on hiatus, it’s simply impossible for me not to share my thoughts on the books I read apparently haha so to compromise here I am offering a recap with this post of one-line reviews for some of the books I’ve read/finished so far this summer. It’s short and gets to the point so if you haven’t been a fan of my usual sprawling review style then this is the complete opposite. If you do prefer my lengthier posts then you’ll be excited to know that a few books not on this list will have their reviews shared one a day for the next few days with a more in-depth spotlight.

Follow me on Goodreads if you’d like to keep up with all of the books I read, reviewed or not!

One-line Reviews: Spring 2023

I’m technically on hiatus, but it’s just impossible for me not to share my thoughts on the books I read apparently haha so to compromise here I am offering a recap with this post of one-line reviews for some of the books I’ve read/finished so far this year (be prepared for quite the assortment as you scroll haha). It’s short and gets to the point so if you haven’t been a fan of my usual sprawling review style then this is the complete opposite. If you do prefer my lengthier posts then you’ll be excited to know that a few books not on this list will have their reviews shared one a day for the rest of this week with a more in-depth spotlight.

Her own home and clan are long-faded memories, but the sacred symbols and staves inked over every inch of her skin mark her as one who can cast the rune stones and see into the future. She has found a fragile place among those who fear her, but when two clans to the east bury their age-old blood feud and join together as one, her world is dangerously close to collapse.
