This post contains affiliate links. My thoughts: As a seasoned thriller reader, I just knew I had this plot figured out and I was so wrong. I did kinda call one person as sketchy and I was slightly right. Give a dog a bone here. 🤣🥴 Duchess faced several challenges because her dad was the first Black Police Chief and […]
Thank you Penguin Teen for my review copy. What I Liked: Hanukkah and the breakdown of each night. The holiday’s are pretty low key for me so I enjoy reading about over the top holiday celebrations with lots of family and friends. Shira’s transformation throughout the story. About the Book: A sixteen-year-old girl is on a mission to find the perfect […]
Review This was a well written book about family secrets and how it affects each person differently. How the family deals with the aftermath of the secrets being revealed and their attempt to move forward. We have Camino and Yahaira who are sisters and only find out about each other after the passing of their father. These two girls couldn’t […]
Review: I had to read this book for #notyomamasbookclub this month. At first I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this book since it’s not my preferred genre. When I went on the library website the ebook and physical book were both available. I took that as a sign and decided to check out a copy. Best decision […]
Review This was a nice anthology that features diverse characters. We had a few f/f stories and a transgender story that was written by a transgender author. As a reader of color inclusion is very important to me. I wish I had a book like this when I was teenager but as an adult I still appreciated this story and […]

Often times I would laugh at the tactics Jane pulled throughout the story. When we got to the ending I really would have liked a […]
Review Emoni is a teen mother and I loved how this story showcased what happens after the pregnancy and everything the teen mom faces. The whispers. The pity. The stares. Baby Daddy drama. The stigma. The day to day. What the future will bring? The ups and downs of it all. Emoni was a very refreshing character and I loved […]
Review When I saw this book the blurb had me intrigued and I really wanted to read. When my copy finally came in from the library, I was excited to read but sadly this book didn’t work out in my favor. I couldn’t connect to any of the characters and I felt the story went on and on (and on […]
Review Have you ever read a book and really liked it but the ending was a letdown? Sadly this was my experience with this book. I have to say the main character Aimee blew my mind. Throughout the whole book she pretty much had her head in the clouds. The final twist in the book still has me wondering […]
Review: Jack meets Kate at a party. They hit it off and have four wonderful months before she dies. Jack is given an opportunity to go back in time and change events. So I did like the way the story started but at times I find the story to be long and drawn out. Even repetitive at times. A large […]
