I was incredibly excited for Lease on Love and even preordered the novel. Sadly, there wasn’t much that I really liked about it… and I found the novel lacking in depth in every aspect. I thought Lease on Love would be right up my alley based on the synopsis but unfortunately, there really wasn’t very much plot for […]
The synopsis of The Donut Trap reminded me a lot of A Pho Love Story, which is one of my favourite books of this year. Both books feature Asian-American characters who work at their family’s food business and a forbidden romance with another Asian-American character. But when I finished listening to The Donut Trap, that was really where […]
I’m going to call it now. I think Battle Royal is my favourite book of the year. I read it in practically one sitting and since finishing it a few weeks ago, I’ve been rereading bits of it ever since. And Lucy Parker is now firmly one of my favourite romance authors. I’ve also since read the […]
There’s nothing I love more than a second chance romance – it may even be my favourite romance trope. And The Road Trip did an amazing job of giving me everything I want in a good second chance romance. The novel is written in alternating perspectives (Addie and Dylan) and also alternating then and now timelines. We […]
Ever since I first heard about The Love Hypothesis early this year through Nick @ The Infinite Limits of Love, I’ve been waiting with bated breath for it to be released. The book follows Olive, who is a PhD candidate in biology, and Dr Adam Carlsen, an academic in her department, which got me super excited because […]
TW: Addiction, grief, depression I have a love-hate relationship with Gayle Forman’s books. Just One Day is probably one of my favourite YA books of all time but I really struggled with her last few releases. I was not a fan at all of I Was Here and while I did enjoy I Have Lost My Way, I didn’t find it […]
A Sweet Mess and The Dating Dare are companion novels and it’s a little weird for me to be reviewing them in this order because I actually read the newly released The Dating Dare first… but the reason why I ended up picking up A Sweet Mess as well was because even though The Dating Dare could be read standalone, I felt like […]
If you love contemporary romances and K-pop, you will love XOXO! I’m not really a K-Pop person, but I am a J-Pop and idol kind of girl so this book was still the perfect light and fluffy romance read for me. I mean, anyone who’s into idol culture has fantasised about dating an idol right? 😀 XOXO […]
I love Morgan Matson’s writing and storytelling so much and Take Me Home Tonight did not disappoint. It’s a fun story of unexpected situations, strange coincidences and lots and lots of excitement. Best of all, it’s a great coming-of-age story about all kinds of relationships and figuring out what matters the most to you. The novel follows […]
