Queen B’s Decree: To Have and to Hoax was a funny and ridiculous historical set in Regency England. Violet and James quickly marry during Violet’s first season when she’s 18 (due to an adorable meet-cute on a balcony) and for one year live happily in wedded bliss. After one year they have an argument so […]
Queen B’s Decree: This was a sweet little prequel in Jamie Schlosser’s new fantasy series. Zella is the princess from the Day Realm and her fated mate is Keryth, king of the Night Realm. Zella is being held captive by her father, who is trying to keep the two separated. What follows is a badass […]
Queen B’s Decree: This went a little darker than I expected. Ella is our Cinderella, orphaned and living with her evil stepmother and stepsisters. Her only solace is the time she spends at the local animal sanctuary, which may close if they don’t acquire any funding. On that note, her bff talks her into going […]
Queen B’s Decree: Another light read in the YA world of K-Pop. We finally get to see Hyunseo’s side of the story. Nayeon is a law student interning at Hyunseo’s K-Pop company. And the upper management is so angry with Hyunseo’s actions that instead of assigning him a company lawyer…he gets Nayeon. Which may be […]
Queen B’s Decree: Sugarcoated is perfect Erin Nicholas. Small town charm? Check. Wonderfully developed characters? Check. Sizzling Chemistry? Check. Sugarcoated also contained one of my biggest book sources of anxiety: secrets. Zoe has basically been raised (and is now in charge) of her family’s bakery and they have one competitor…Hot Cakes. The betrayal between the […]
Queen B’s Decree: I feel a little let down by Easy to Fall. Like I’ve waited through all of these books and I don’t feel satisfied. I feel like I’ve been riding this crazy train and I still don’t know who these characters are. Why are Seth and Laura in love? The overarching plot tends […]
Queen B’s Decree: If I Never Met You was a delight to read. Our heroine is Laurie, who has just been dumped by the partner she’s had for half of her life. The partner who tells her he needs to find himself and immediately impregnates his new girlfriend. Painful, and heartbreaking, but not the end […]
Vampires in America by D.B. Reynolds was first introduced to me by Queen J. And from page one I was hooked. Vampires in America just might be one of the best series I’ve ever read. For a series that has so many books, you might expect the characters and plots to become formulaic after a […]
Queen B’s Decree: Historical used to be my favorite genre, so I jumped on the chance to snatch this one up. The Earl Not Taken started well. We get introduced to this squad of wallflowers who bonded together while at a boarding school. These women/girls were supposedly so terrible that their parents sent them out […]
Queen B’s Decree: Creole Kingpin contains one of my least favorite tropes, the abominable second chance. I usually hate it, because the characters’ separation is often due to a stupid misunderstanding, or a failure to communicate, or something totally avoidable. Luckily, this doesn’t happen in Creole Kingpin. 15 years ago Magnolia and Moses spent two […]
