REVIEW: THE WHITE BOOK BY HAN KANG

REVIEW: A CHRISTMAS SPARK (PRIDE AND PRANKS #0.5) BY CINDY STEEL

MY RATING: PURCHASE LINKS:AMAZONKOBO REVIEW: Why was this so short?!!!! I really enjoyed the story, the forced proximity and enemies-to-lovers trope, but I wish this were longer than it was. Hence, my review will be quite short as well. I liked the lighthearted tone here; it…

REVIEW: THAT FINE LINE (PRIDE AND PRANKS #1) BY CINDY STEEL

MY RATING: PURCHASE LINKS:AMAZONBARNES & NOBLEKOBO REVIEW: I think I found my type of romance! I suppose western, clean, funny romances are my thing! Not that I mind the spicy, but more often than not, it ends up waaaay too cringy and unrealistic for my taste.…

REVIEW: THE SPELLSHOP BY SARAH BETH DURST
