Review: Addicted to You

Addicted to You Addicted to You by Krista Ritchie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I'm still wrapping my head around the way this book made me feel. I read it at the recommendation of a friend and now I need the entire series. No joke. I want the whole thing. I need to see what happens next and how this plays out. I want more of Lo and Lil, I want more of Ryke and Connor.

If you know nothing about this book, it's a story of addiction. Lo is addicted to alcohol. Lily is addicted to sex. They are codependent. They physically need one another, but not in the ways you would think.

The writing is perfect. The love is real. The dependency is something that hits so close to home--not because I'm an addict, but because I am the daughter of one--and the struggle is one I have witnessed.

When they hit rock bottom will they be able to survive it?

Review: Fighting for Us

Fighting for Us Fighting for Us by Claire Kingsley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

description

Asher Bailey.

That man.

You know he's something special. You just have no idea how much he's worth fighting for.

He's so good. And loving.

He just has trouble expressing that these days.
And I don't blame him.

He's not the same man from seven years ago.

He's lost some of that innocence. But he's worth every page. And every minute you spend with him.

Review: Luna and the Lie

Luna and the Lie Luna and the Lie by Mariana Zapata
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

If you want a slow burn, I guess this is your jam. And I'm not against a slow burn, I prefer them to insta-love, but good lord. I can only burn slowly for so long before I'm bored to tears.

I liked Rip. I will always have a soft spot for a broody older man.
And Luna is sweet and kind and has just had a rough go of it.

But...I have no idea why this book had so many words in it. I know, I know. It's a book. It's supposed to have words otherwise what am I even doing with it? But there were so many that I didn't find necessary. They weren't needed. They could have been removed.
It was repetitive. And I don't know if that was because it made it more impactful or meaningful or what, but for me it was just blah, blah, blah.

Was it just me? Am I having a bad book day? I can totally own up to the fact that those happen. And when one doesn't go my way I find myself on a downward spiral with a few.

ALL THE SPOILERS EVER BELOW. I guess I'll use a spoiler tag, which is something I haven't done in years.

Review: Stolen Soulmate

Stolen Soulmate Stolen Soulmate by Mary Catherine Gebhard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

We knew this would be intense and hot and complicated. There was no way around that.
And MCG did not leave me hanging with those feels.

I absolutely loved the struggle of Grayson and Story! Nothing like a bit of angst and a bit of cruel, dark intensity.

You think you know Grayson Crowne, but you have no idea who he really is.
