Reader Question… Solved! The book about a guy and a girl that met on a Greyhound bus and road-tripped across the US…

By 2 Comments

Traci needs our book help! Oh I LOVE strangers on a road-trip trope! So much fun. One of my favorites (that this question makes me think of…) was “The Edge of Never <— see my review. You’ll see. I FREAKED out!!!! But I don’t think they were on a bus. Or were they???? I can’t remember that one detail…

She asks:

Name that book!!??

So I can’t remember the name of this book or the author.

It was about a guy and a girl that met on a greyhound bus and road-tripped across the US? It was from 2009-2010 ish? read more

Reader Question – The book about the dancer that catches a ride with her, and dyed his hair blue…

By 3 Comments

Julie needs our book help. And the whole road trip, hotels, and “stuff” he does for her in the hotel room brings back one of my absolute FAVORITES in the world (The Edge of Never) but… he was a musician and not a dancer, so I know that’s not the one.

She asks:

Hi!

I need help!

Can you help me find the book about a couple that take a road trip?

He’s actually “catching a ride” with her and he’s a dancer. At one point in the book he actually dances for her in a hotel room. And he dyed his hair blue. read more

Book Review – Cocky Bastard by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland

Cocky Bastard
Okay so this is definitely one of my new favorite super funny, slightly angsty, but full on “new-adult feel” reads. Just a well rounded, fantastically written story, that flowed so well, I can’t even tell when one author stopped writing, and the other author kicked in.

A great pairing, both in authorship AND in main characters, and WE LOVE IT!!

Tee hee!! My reactions while reading “Cocky Bastard” (and yes… the goofiness continues). 😛

Maryse: Okay I’m already chuckling with glee reading Cocky Bastard, and I’m only in the first few pages. Tee hee!!! read more

Book Review – The Edge of Never by J.A. Redmerski

By 135 Comments

The Edge of Never <—- This is one of the BEST BOOKS THAT I HAVE EVER READ. I’m shaking and my shaking started AFTER I finished reading. I haven’t had this happen to me in a LONG time. Ages. Maybe two or three books total in my entire reading life that not only made me cry, but made me tremble and shake AFTER my cry-fest. After the fact. AFTER I finished the book. I’m still trembling as we speak. What is this? An adrenaline rush? Coming down from the adrenaline rush? When will I stop shaking? read more
