-review- You Own Me by Mary Catherine Gebhard

Image
- Goodreads - Wow I've never read a book that made less sense than this one, that dragged on and on like this one, that went round and round in circles like this one but still made me love it. I loved every single thing. Call me crazy, cuz I know I am. But this was such an amazing read for me... from fudged up relationships, to stalkers, to mental illness, to physical and mental abuse, to friendships, to broken families, to sad upbringings, to therapist after therapist after therapist, to sexy times and clouds were those sexy times, to amazing inner monologue. Lenny's "voice" was so much fun yet a nightmare to read. I immediately identified a lot of myself with her, reading things from her POV was a blessing and a curse but I loved it either way. Even after all the poop she's gone through she still manages to somewhat be an amazing woman on a daily basis. And whenever she wasn't? Those days just made her even more real to me. The one thing I...

-mini review- Royal by Winter Renshaw

Image
- goodreads - Guilty pleasure read right here. I enjoyed it so freaking much haha. I'm thinking of getting the next book. While the story grabbed my attention right from the start. I think the ending was a bit rushed. I wish I could've read how the problem was exactly solved instead of the half-explanation that "they're still working on" so there's that. But I loved the pace up until that ending. I loved and thoroughly enjoyed the writing. Simple. Sexy. Cute. A bit on the heavy emotional side sometimes but all in all an enjoyable quick read. Will definitely check out some more work by this author. ^_^ 4/5

-Review- It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

Image
- goodreads - amazon - [... He is. He asked for you. And I know you're with my brother and I'm with child, but can we please just take a moment to silently admire the perfection that is that man?] (Before the review let me tell you a bit about my reading experience as a whole...Also, I kinda was too emotional so there's a bit of cursing *something I rarely do* so beware.) I've read a lot of books in my lifetime. Some were so bad for me I wish I'd had a lighter right there to erase all traces of it from my shelves. Others were so good I constantly struggled with my selfishness to keep the story all to myself and not let anyone read it while at the same time wanting to have tons of people to discuss said good book with. Then came the gems. The epic books. The books that changed something in me every time I turned that last page and sigh a little contented sigh of happiness or sorrow or sadness or any feeling that happened to be evoked by the end...
