Queen B’s Decree: I’m really digging the diversity in romance and YA books this year so far. Home Field Advantage is the story of in-the-closet cheerleader Amber and the new female quarterback, Jack. I thought the story really showcased the misogyny and homophobia that can come from a small, southern town. Jack moved specifically for […]
Queen B’s Decree: I haven’t read the previous in the series, but I’ve met both main characters in other books, and I’ve been looking forward to Lang’s book since I first met him. Forever With Me was surprisingly fun and light, considering the darker premise. Lang is working undercover with Fitz to both protect him […]
Queen B’s Decree: Katee Robert’s Dark Olympus series is definitely very vague regarding the adaptations from the Greek mythology. But let’s be honest—I’m not reading Wicked Beauty for historical accuracy. Wicked Beauty is the story of Helen, Achilles, and Patroclus. Helen’s brother has been newly named Zeus and has put her up as the prize […]
Queen B’s Decree: B For Beretta was not my normal read. It’s about voodoo magic, and revenge, and societal issues like ‘Black Lives Matter.’ First off, I read this as a paperback and the formatting and print form was SOOO impressive. The art style, how the chapters were organized—I loved it all. The story itself […]
Queen B’s Decree: I went into The Emma Project with a chip on my shoulder. I really did not like our heroine, Naina, in the last book, so I had no idea how she would be turned into a likable character. And surprise to me, I liked her best. We get so much more of […]
Queen B’s Decree: I love a strong heroine. I love that we got a twist, and instead of an anti-Hero, we get a morally grey anti-Heroine. Caterina has been through a lot in her life and has spent most of it working towards vengeance towards those who wronged her. But Massimo wasn’t part of her […]
Queen B’s Decree: Why are second chance romances so hard for me to read?!? All that lost time, usually due to a dumb misunderstanding…WASTED. Thus, I went into Shifting Gears with a bit of a chip on my shoulder. I already knew both characters from the previous books in the series so I MAYBE was […]
Queen B’s Decree: Ya’ll…I’m fully invested in this new monster romance train. And yeah, thanks to Ashley, I’ve now watched Beastars on Netflix and have had LOTS of feelings about it. Muscles & Monsters is exceptionally adorable. It’s truly just a happy and delightful read. Atlas (our hero Wolf!) meets Tegan (our curvy human baker) […]
Queen B’s Decree: I won a copy of The Cursed Fae recently and was pretty excited to dive in. The story progresses very quickly (due to the short nature of the novella, I suppose) but I enjoyed the romance between Lily and her dark fae, Kailen. There were definitely some Beauty and the Beast vibes […]
Queen B’s Decree: Alex Grayson has done it again with Doing Taboo Things. Give us a hot, little read with a good plot and character development. Explosive chemistry, great communication, and low angst, Doing Taboo Things was a sexy and fun read. I loved all three main characters and I felt like despite the short […]
