Reader Question – Carla is looking for romance books about reincarnation…

By 11 Comments

Ooooh this is fun, ’cause right off the bat, I’m thinking Jewel E. Ann’s FANTASTIC duet that I loved SO much. So let’s add that one to the list!

Carla asks:

Look, I’m looking for your help…

I never saw anything about this kind of books in here (and I follow you since 2012) and I might be wrong, but I decided to ask anyway. Lol
Have you ever read any good novel about reincarnation? But not just any reincarnation novel, but something that is close to spiritism…

I’m desperate! Lol But I don’t know where I can find good recommendations… do you know about any? read more

Book Review – Epoch (The Transcend Duet Book 2) by Jewel E Ann

By 21 Comments

Epoch (The Transcend Duet Book 2)
THE WHOLE DUET? 5-STARS FREAKING PLUS!!!!!! I LOST myself in this. Lost in the BEST of ways (and the worst). 

THAT is what I look for in angsty romance reads. I want all of the swoons… yes, but I also want all of the stress and trepidation and potential heartache, believable break-ups and make-ups and oh boy did I get it!!!!

Okay quick note. This review is going to be more of our buddy-read crazy reactions (since it’s a sequel and follow-up to Transcend) there’s no need in me doing a “so what’s it about?” nor do I want to spoil anything coming your way with this one (all of that can be found here in ➔ my review of book #1). So I thought instead, you’d enjoy our awesome buddy-read with us. 😉 read more

Reader Question – Recommendations for more books like “My Name is Memory”

By 19 Comments

It’s reader question day, and we’re starting with a super-intriguing one that Rosa found us. My Name is Memory by Ann Brashares. The thing is… she wants recommendations for more books like it (they keep being reincarnated, and keep finding each other, again and again…). Here’s a bit from the blurb.

“Daniel has spent centuries falling in love with the same girl. Life after life, crossing continents and dynasties, he and Sophia (despite her changing name and form) have been drawn together-and he remembers it all. For all the times that he and Sophia have been connected throughout history, they have also been torn painfully, fatally, apart.” read more
