Golden Wings & Pretty Things by Kayleigh King
5.0
Indie and Astor are now a new favorite book couple. Their age gap was such a nice aspect of the novel. I loved how they started their relationship and the things we find out throughout it are JAW DROPPING.

Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli
4.0
This was such a wonderful ābecoming who you are unapologeticallyā novel. Simon is gay- secretly. And he emails Blue- a person from him school using a fake name- and theyāre basically in love. And then someone finds out that Simons gay. And his whole world turned upside down.
I love all the lessons Simon learns throughout the read. He had to go through the struggle of new friends and a friend group having issues. Heās also keeping the biggest secret from them, but eventually it has to come out.
I would reread this novel in a heart beat. I need to read the rest of the series š

The Children on the Hill by Jennifer McMahon
4.0
This novel was not what I was expecting- but it was amazing. I loved Vi and Eric. Theyāre both such wonderful characters. Gran was such a wholesome woman and was so dedicated to her family and her job. Iris was definitely a character.
I love the multiple POVās- it is definitely something that makes me love a book more. We got Violetās, Lizzyās and The Monsters. With articles/book pages that have things written about the family & the Inn where Gran works. Lizzy being a monster Hunter- isnāt surprising and I honesty liked that aspect a lot.
The twists were by far some of my favorites. The things we learn about the family were JAW DROPPING- but so unexpected. I believed one thing throughout the novel and it was NOT AT ALL the truth.
This isnāt your average ghost story- and I mean it.

Love Me Later by G. Colgrove
5.0
The slow burn romance was definitely worth it. Jackson and Roryās friendship to romance was BEAUTIFUL. I love getting to see Roryās and Jacksonās POV, especially teenage Jackson. Getting to see him fall in love with Rory was so magical.
Jackson has definitely made š¶š¶ about cops a new fav- because that cop, can definitely make my mind go crazy. I love how caring he is, so caring that he doesnāt tell Rory that he loves her and that he always has. No matter how many girlfriends he has or how many boyfriends Rory has, theyāre each otherās person. THEY EVEN HAVE MATCHING TATTOOS FOR GODS SAKE š„¹š„¹
Rory- I have some words for her, especially for how she treats Brad, but at the same time my heart goes out to the girl. Sheās been through so much and she doesnāt want to ruin anything for her and Jackson. Now if only she wouldāve realized her feelings for Jackson sooner.
Once the romance kicks in- girl the š¶š¶ scenes were JAW DROPPING. The nastiness that Jackson thinks, and says, and does š®š®šš, needless to say I loved it. I loved the epilogue as well- super cute and fun.
Now while this book is a š¶š¶ book- it does have some core values in it. It shows the importance of family love, pushing past your past with some people, and being honest. I do want to warn readers that are sensitive to gun violence that there are a few chapters towards the end where that type of thing does get brought up- the author luckily does warn you before you read, but I like to make sure everyone is okay(: enjoy your smut you filthy animals;)

Bound By Words by E.L. Koslo
4.0
I have so many feelings and thoughts for this book. I loved the plot twist, the relationship between Kelly and Nathan. The chemistry, the way they fit together, all of it. They are meant to be- and nothing will ever tell me different.
The BDSM, the dom/sub dynamic was such a WONDERFUL TEACHING MOMENT for all doms- donāt be a d!ck to your sub and how to listen to your sub (: it also teaches subs/women how to not be @ssh0les and say/do negative/untrue things because lifeās a b!tch.
I cant say more without spoiling it because everything was just- *šššchefs kiss* ššš

Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
Did not finish book. Stopped at 14%.

While yes- I loved books 1-3 of this series- I could not handle this one. I felt as if the writing was lackluster and that it was more confusing. There was a whole chapter where i couldnāt figure out whose POV it was from, or what was really happening.
Flawless by Elsie Silver
5.0
Rhett is the first- and dare I say only- cowboy that takes a spot on my book boyfriend list. He was such a grumpy person in the beginning- but the man he blossomed into was AMAZING. I love how Summer and him are professional-until of course the one bed scene comes into play.
Summer gained so much confidence and grew so much during the novel and I loved it. I love her character. Sheās a relatable 25 year old woman who is going through life. She isnāt afraid to dress how she wants- sheās confident in herself no matter what. She is stubborn and snarky, but is such a beautiful soul and has a gorgeous heart.
I definitely recommend this new novel by Elise!! To anyone cowboy lover or not!

From The Ashes by Ireland Lorelei

Like everything else Ireland Lorelei writes, I loved this. It was a wonderful story of a woman finding herself again after losing herself in a crappy marriage. I love how much she has to come to terms with her life and the choices she wants to make.
This wasnāt just a tale of a bdsm relationship turned romance, no it was more than that. It was a tale about awakening yourself and loving everything about your life. Even if itās different, or weird.

Such a phenomenal read. I love Alice in Wonderland retellings- and this one didnāt disappoint. It was definitely one for the books.
Nick was such a whirlwind of a MC- I loved his character, but I also hated him. He was a complex character. He was hateful, but loving. He wanted everything good for Lyropie, while also wanting to completely dominate her- in and outside of the bedroom. He was the dominant everyone wants- well at least I want. He shows her how itās going to be and thereās nothing she can say about it. How rough he was with her and how romantic he was, showed everything about him that was important.
Lyropie was a strong headed independent woman. But as all independent people know, eventually you need somebody. To love, to hold, to laugh with. And she has so much anxiety and anger that she canāt just have that person. Until she confesses it all šš„°
I cant wait for the next book- itās already making me super pumped š„°š„°
