Marni Mann – Moments in Boston Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

<— IT’S NOW A SERIES!!!! So many here went CRAZY for this super-angsty sounding one, and now another book is up for preorder! 😀 About the upcoming book, the author says:

This series will be tied together in a unique way—except I can’t tell you why. As you know, I’m the queen of twists and giving that answer would spoil all the fun, so you’re just going to have to wait and see what I have planned for you all.

When We Met has been brewing in my brain for a long time and here’s what I can promise: this book is a complete stand-alone novel (you don’t have to read When Ashes Fall first), you might see some familiar faces from When Ashes Fall throughout the series … and I’m absolutely going to blow your mind AND your hearts with this story. read more

Cecelia Ahern – P.S. I Love You Duet Reading Order

By 1 Comment

GUYS!!! GUYYYYS!!!! Guess what’s going LIVE tomorrow? THE. SEQUEL!! Postscript!!!

And guess what else? PS, I Love You: A Novel is super-bargain priced today. I haven’t read the book yet, but I watched the movie and cried and cried through it like a baby. It hooked me deep, and I’ll NEVER forget it.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE so I know I’d love the book even more. I’m just afraid, ’cause it gets me in the feels each time I watch it (it’s one of my favorites of all time), so I can’t help but wonder what reading it will do to me. This is my PERFECT story. What a love story. read more

Book Review – The Promise of Stardust by Priscille Sibley

By 5 Comments

The Promise of Stardust: A Novel
OMG what a premise!!!! This one had me in knots and infuriated and choking on my own flabbergastment <— Okay yeah not a word but… you get the picture. I was incensed and devastated and while I could technically “understand” the two sides of this incredibly heartbreaking, unfair situation, in my mind, the answer was clear, and I couldn’t even believe we could possibly be debating this!!!!

But… there’s always room for debate, and in a case like this, the opinions are vehement and I have no doubt, in real life, the opposition would be just as intense. read more

Lesley Jones – Carnage Series Reading Order

By 6 Comments

<— TEAR-JERKER ALERT!! Or should I say… UGLY-CRY alert! 😉 This book set off a whole KABOOM on this blog, and pretty much all over our book world when it first came out. And there’s more…

Donna: … I am heartbroken

Julie: Donna – you have to read Carnage 2! The first Carnage tears your heart out and I think the sequel puts it back together.

Amy: I forgot to tell you guys what I thought of Carnage. Okay, where do I start…y’all saw what I said above but saying that I was emotionally exhausted is definitely worth repeating. The angst was there, especially in some parts, but it was more of an emotional rollercoaster for me. I started out having an anxious tummy because if things are that sweet and perfect in the beginning you just *know* something’s coming that’s gonna hurt. Then BAM, sonofawhore! That’s when I started getting emotionally exhausted. In a good way, of course. *giggle* read more
