When one of your favorite authors hasn't released

When one of your favorite authors hasn't released a book in a while and there's finally an announcement for a new book, you jump to add it to your TBR... then cry a little that it's not coming out until February 1, 2022. But hey, it's just a few days after my birthday so it'll be like a present. You can read the blurb for GOOD GIRL COMPLEX in the comments.⁠

Happy Release Day! What are you all planning to pick up, if anything, from today's releases? ⁠
.⁠
We have a ton of reviews on the blog so be sure to stop by and check them out. Including for THAT SUMMER by Jennifer Weiner (up on the blog tomorrow) and PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION by Emily Henry (up now). ⁠
.⁠
"A book you’ll think about for days after you’re done; the kind that puts feelings you didn’t even know you had into words, and then it just starts to make sense." ~ Guest Reviewer @_lostinafantasy on PEOPLE WE MEET ON VACATION⁠
.⁠
"I think this is a great summer read that is not only entertaining but also considers serious concepts, making the reader reflect on questions of revenge, masculinity, assault, and confrontation. It’s rare that you find a book that has aspects of a drama and a thriller that also tackles heavy, serious subjects, but Weiner succeeds!" ~ Guest Reviewer @c_marie_books on THAT SUMMER ⁠

“I had forgotten how stressful sex with a new pe

“I had forgotten how stressful sex with a new person is, the pressure to perform being a really sexy person who is naturally good at sex, a part time erotica master. The stupid hair tossing stuff and the arching of your back. As if there’s a panel watching you beyond a one-way mirror, appraising your performance and holding up paddle boards with their scores.” ~ from JUST LAST NIGHT by Mhairi McFarlane

I am #currentlyreading JUST LAST NIGHT by Mhairi Mcfarlane and although I’m just 21% through I can clearly see this is going to be a five star read for me.

You know some books and characters you just instantly connect with? This is it. Maybe it’s the narcissist within me, but I really enjoy seeing Eve’s thought patterns and sometimes EXACT THOUGHTS reflect myself. I know Eve, our heroine, I AM Eve.

But looking beyond my - clearly gigantic - ego I am loving this book for a variety of reasons. I like that it’s blurs the lines between women’s fiction and romance meaning you get the best aspects of both. I love that friendship is out front and centre of the story. I like that it’s set in the UK and has that Brit feel. And, I’m sure the more I read, the more I will find things to love.

QOTD: When do you know you’re going to be giving a book 5 stars?

For me 5 stars isn’t something I give out lightly or often. So, when I’m reading a book that has the extra almost magical thing to it that pushes me rate it 5 stars, I know pretty early on.

It’s such a dark and rainy day today! Which I am

It’s such a dark and rainy day today! Which I am using as an excuse to NOT do two things:

1. Go for a run
2. Take some insta pics

The second one I am kinda annoyed about as I am vain enough that I want some good pics as I’ve recently been to the hairdresser and my hair is looking AMAZING. The rest of me needs work, but my hair is on point lol.

However, it does mean that I get to post an older picture which shows a few of my fave authors: Ilona Andrews, JR Ward, Kresley Cole, David Eddings and Lisa Kleypas. Each of those authors are special and meaningful to me in different ways and are authors I regularly reread.

Anyways...there’s still time for the day to brighten up! Or maybe I can try something a bit moody...hmmmmm....

QOTD: what’s your favourite thing to do on a rainy day?

Today's post is to raise awareness about the viole

Today's post is to raise awareness about the violence against women in PR and help raise funds to support victims of domestic violence.⁠
.⁠
@thebookishletters and @libraryofanormalgirl have teamed up to raise awareness and for every #NiUnaMasStack that spells "Ni Una Mas" or "Ni Una Menos" through May 31, they will donate $1 to @hogarruthpr (up to $50 each) and I'll be making my own donation now as well.
.⁠
The Ruth Home for Battered Women is an organization dedicated to promoting human rights and offering safe and supportive coexistence spaces that save the lives of women and children who are survivors of domestic violence in Puerto Rico.⁠

Today, check out the review for MEET CUTE DIARY by Emery Lee - perfect for fans of FELIX EVER AFTER (which I loooooved btw)⁠
.⁠
"The characters were really what drove this novel. Noah is a really relatable character with a good heart and good intentions. This book deals with a lot of really important topics like LGBT+ youth, pronouns, identity, and anxiety/panic attacks in a respectful and informative way. In addition, the core of this book is about trans joy. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes reading YA romances with LGBT characters. It was very fluffy and I can’t wait to see what else Emery Lee writes. " ~ UTC Reviewer @serenity.reads⁠
