Book Review – My Oxford Year by Julia Whelan

By 15 Comments

My Oxford Year: A Novel
OMG BEST BOOK EVER. Seriously I’m crying as I write this, but I am so absolutely in love with this love story, and I can’t believe my luck that I was able to experience it.

I chose it but vacillated. Suspecting – due to comments – that it was “one of those” books, hearing words like “ugly cry”, “sobbing” and all the warnings that come with “one of those” books – and I was second guessing myself. Was I up for all of that intensity and emotion? But I can promise you, I couldn’t be more delighted. I devoured this one. DE. VOURED. read more

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

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

Carina is looking for this one and OMG THE PREMISE is already breaking my heart and making me gasp!! You know this one’ll be a tearjerker.

Book question!!

I can’t remember the name of a book a read a while back and for some reason it keeps popping back in my head. I’m hoping you read it and can remember the name so I can search for it in my library 🙂

ok so the story is about a woman who works for hospice and was asked to be in a home with her long lost love and his dying wife.

Do you know which book this is? read more
