Hell Bent (South Shore Beach Book 1)Β & Heaven Sent (South Shore Beach Book 2)Β by Karen Crompton <— BOTH ON SALE TODAY!!! BAD BOY NUMBING HIS WAY THROUGH LIFE… “…itβs all about numbing the pain. And his planβs working fine β until he meets Corrie Johnson. Thatβs when things begin to unravel.

Amy: I figure with the reviews, it can go either way for me. Hausfrau has a lot of 1-star reviews yet I freaking loved it, but then Sweetbitter had a lot of 1-star reviews and I would agree with themβ¦I just felt cruddy and disappointed after reading it.

Tasha J: I bought this one this year at full price, have read halfway through and itβs a 5 star for sure (I skipped to the end cuz I had no time to keep going and I HAD to know what was gonna happen, lol). I will finish soon. Thereβs another after and I think the third will be coming out. Up there with Sarah J Maas for me. π
MichelleS: Tashaβs review and love for Ember in the Ashes and comparing it to Sarah J Maas had me go to Amazon lickety-split. Imagine my surprise when Amazon tells me I purchase it back in summer of 2016! I donβt remember this book. I hate it when that happens.

Culling trials book 3 is out today. Itβs a super fun read.
Yessssss!! Thank you Jodie! I know Tessa is crazy for this series. :D!!!!
I’m adding it now.
I’m so excited!
Is The Culling Trial YA?
Yes I think it is from the category info on Amazon…
I couldn’t resist a Panic! at the Disco one. π
OMG, so many goodies out today and I’m already reading a book. Finish book, Culling Trials, then… 500 other books I have because my favorite tropes are popular currently. lol
LOL!!!!!
It’s the perfect glitter bomb for today my friend!!! π And I’m glad all your favorites are all the rage right now.
*twirls in the glitter shower*
Love Panic at the Disco! Have seen them twice in concert with my daughter. I finished reading the Grip book series. It was really good; not 5 star but I enjoyed it. Don’t know how the MC’s were when they were in the previous series, but I liked them in this one; especially the poetry spouting Grip. Some angst in this series, which I think could have been extended in book 2 Grip. For those of you that have Hoopla, audio books 1 and 2 are available. I haven’t read a multiple book series in a while. Now to decide what to read next.
Oh there are some goodies up there! Some that I’ve already read and some that I want to read! First, I really enjoyed Fix Her Up by Tessa Bailey. They have some great steamy chemistry. The cover is not at all indicative of the story. I also enjoyed Kickin’ It by Rachel Van Dyken! I really love that series! Another goodie for me was The Friend Zone by Sariah Wilson.
Winter flower is calling my name and The Edge of Us! And as a sidenote – I absolutely and completely disliked Sweetbitter….you know I don’t say that often.
I also want to read The Culling Trials but I need to start from the beginning.
Thank you Michele!! I have Fix Her Up!! I love Tessa Bailey!
OMG! Just finished Then Came You on Netflix. *My heart!!!*
I need to make a watch list. This one, and that one with Keanu Reeves.
What are the books that you are saving for a summer vacation or a quiet weekend?
I am leaving for a week’s vacation by the lake and these are the ones at the top of my list to read:
1. Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston. It is an M/M and has gotten really good reviews. The son of a US President vs. European Prince. I can’t wait!!
2. The Bride’s Test by Helen Hoang. I loved the Kiss Quotient so can’t wait to read this one!!
3. A Five Minute Life by Emma Scott. She never lets me down.
I have been hoarding these last 3 books like a nice bottle of wine, just waiting for the right time to read each.
For me it’s
1.) Keep Her Safe by K.A. Tucker
2.) Where the Forest Meets the Stars
3.) River Wild
Very excited for all three of them!! All very different genres.
Kathy, I have read all 3 of those and loved them all! Enjoy!!
Oh good. Even more excited to read them now!!!
Meeee toooo!!! *happy dance*
P.S. I read A Five Minute Life and it was great!!!
YAY!!!!! π
I just finished Carry The World. One of my Best of 2019. My heart is happy and full. I loved the story that Susan Fanetti created centered around a Pack Horse Librarian in rural Appalachia, in the 1930βs. Life was so hard and unforgiving, but the people who lived high up in the hollars of Kentucky, were some of the happiest. The love of family and hearth was of utmost importance. They didnβt know they were impoverished, they just lived and loved. Such a heartwarming book. It made me want to be a Pack Horse Librarian and live in the world SFβs words created. I β€οΈ this book.
SQUEEEEEE!!!!! π
OMG, that sounds so endearing!
I’m absolutely going to have to read this!!
Carry the world was very well written and seemly well researched. The connections between the characters were so vivid. Definitely on the best of 2019 list.
Amelia Hutchins’ If she’s Wicked went live today!

I posted it on Facebook, and I’m going to include it on tomorrow’s Friday Finds. Thank you Tessa!!!
I cant remember if I’ve ever posted this. But I was just reminded of it and it makes me laugh. I love Stephen Colbert. Cant remember if I saw this back then, but the name Rain would of meant nothing to me.
Anyway, Colbert and his first run in with Kpop, lol
https://www.cc.com/video-clips/ey98z2/the-colbert-report-exclusive—stephen-vs–rain
Anyone read Written with Regret by Aly Martinez? Was thinking of starting that one since the sequel comes out tomorrow.
She’s one of my favorites so I think I’m just going to power read ’em both now that they’re live. Supposedly #1 has a Kindle-throwing twist!! YAY!!!
I think I’m not only in a reading funk but a life funk. Everything seems to bore me and not hold my interest. π₯
On a positive note, I got a new phone case that is pink with lots of glitter….THAT makes me happy.
I have two audiobooks that became available from library but I’m not sure I’m in mood. My Favorite Half Night Stand – Christina Lauren and Keep Her Safe – K.A. Tucker. π€·ββοΈ
Glitter and sparkles always make me happy. I get where you’re coming from. It seems so many of us are in a bit of that down these days…
I bet Keep Her Safe will keep you interested. I read where the author said that was the biggest, craziest twist she’s ever come up with… I can’t wait to read it.
Summer time blues?
Leslie, I never thought I’d be so into YA books, koop, and asian dramas……but it has been so FUN!
I know you like what you like and from this wishy washy person I think that is awesome, but maybe just try something new. Give it a chance.
Go on Spotify and see who they recommend based on what you like.
Try some BBC comedies or dramas.
Pick a book from 3 different genres.
