Local Girls is a standalone adult fiction novel that I think has great crossover appeal to the new adult age group. Local Girls is told mostly in the past tense and centers around a group of 3, used-to-be 4, friends. They live outside of Orlando, which was fun for me as I am getting to… Read more »

{Review} Crimson Bound by @RosamundHodge @BalzerandBray
Crimson Bound is a standalone young adult fantasy. I am hesitant to call it a re-telling or even a re-imagining of Little Red Riding hood (or the Girl with No Hands, which I have not read) because it is so utterly unique and different from anything I have read, that it almost isn’t fair to… Read more »

{ARC Review} After Hours by Claire Kennedy @simonteen #pulseit
After Hours is a salacious book that is as fun as it is crazy. And trust me, it is very crazy. It kind of reminded me of Gossip Girl mixed with The Bling Ring- that movie based on a true story of the teenage girls that broke into celebrity houses in California. And I don’t… Read more »
{Review} The Fill-in Boyfriend by @KasieWest @HarperTeen
The Fill-in Boyfriend is Kasie West’s latest young adult contemporary romance. I loved her last book, On the Fence, so I was super excited to read The Fill-in Boyfriend. And I thought it was really cute. It dealt with some deeper friendship and self identity issues that were unexpected for me. I really liked the… Read more »

{ARC Review+Giveaway} Tessa Ever After by Brighton Walsh @WriteAsRain_ @BerkleyRomance
I bow down to Brighton Walsh. She is offically one of my favorite New Adult authors. And the Caged in Winter series is one of my favorite New Adult romances. I loved Cage and Winter so hard last year, and now Tessa and Jason have stolen my heart! I don’t even know who I liked… Read more »
{ARC Review} Flirty Dancing by @JennyMcLachlan1 @FeiwelFriends
Flirty Dancing is such a fun read. It kind of reminded me of the British Georgia Nickelson series. Laugh out loud antics with a refreshingly levelheaded main character. I don’t know how to best describe Bea. She is her own person, she is nice, has a good little group of friends (most of the time),… Read more »
{ARC Review} Becoming Jinn by @LoriAGoldstein @FeiwelFriends
Becoming Jinn is the first in a Young Adult series of the same name, about genies. I love the tagline for the book- “Forget everything you thought you knew about genies”. Because right away, this tells me that it is going to be a pretty cool re-imagining. And it was. It took awhile to gain… Read more »
