Elise Morceau is enjoying a winter’s walk on Hampstead Heath when a striking older woman catches her eye. It’s attraction at first sight for the pair of them. Soon Elise is being whisked away by Connie – a successful author whose book is being developed into a Hollywood film. Does this sound like the plotRead More
Danika reviews Bury the Lede written by Gaby Dunn and illustrated by Clare Roe & Miquel Muerto
This is the third book I’ve read by Gaby Dunn, all back to back (to back). There are some similarities: I Hate Everyone But You and Please Send Help… also have a bisexual intern reporter whose moral compass may be a little bit off. But while the novels have an unshakable friendship at their core, whichRead More
Alice Pate reviews The Brightsiders by Jen Wilde
Trigger Warnings: alcoholism, underage drinking, neglectful parenting, abusive relationship Note: Not all trigger warnings are present in this review, but they are present in the book in question. The Brightsiders has been on my to be read list for several months before I finally purchased a copy. The bright colors of the cover had reallyRead More
Danika reviews I Hate Everyone But You by Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin
It’s a shame that New Adult as a genre never really took off outside of Romance, because I think there’s a demand for it. The just-after-high-school years, whether they’re spent in college/university or elsewhere, have distinct challenges. I Hate Everyone But You is set during that time, following Ava and Gen as they are just beginningRead More
Danika reviews Hot Dog Girl by Jennifer Dugan
What a great summer read. Lou is gearing up for The Best Summer Ever, and even being cast as the hot dog at her summer carnival job doesn’t break her stride. Sure, her crush is literally dating the Princess of the park, but she’s got a plan to snag this diving pirate for herself. AndRead More
Danika reviews Top Ten by Katie Cotugno
I’ll get this out of the way first: Top Ten is about Gabby and Ryan: their unexpected friendship, and their constant will-they, won’t-they. It starts on the night of their graduation, when their complex friendship gains a whole other complication, and then describes the “top ten” moments of their friendship, not in chronological order. This isRead More
Mallory Lass reviews Blurred Lines by KD Williamson
Blurred Lines is a slow burn, cops and docs contemporary romance that simmers just below the surface until you can’t stand it anymore. I found it very much worth the wait. The dialogue is funny, the plot is engaging and well thought out, and the cast of supporting male characters are highly likable. Detective KelliRead More
Marthese reviews Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli
“Something tugs in my chest. I feel strangely offbeat” Leah on the Offbeat is the second book in the Creekwood series by Becky Albertalli and it follows Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda (on which the movie ‘Love, Simon’ was based). While it may be worthwhile to read that book first it is not necessary to understand thisRead More
Danika reviews An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hank Green
About three years ago, I saw a post on tumblr from Hank Green, which read: “Remember when I said I was writing a story about a bisexual girl and a robot?” I was, of course, immediately intrigued. I’ve been following the Vlogbrothers for many years, and I’ve read almost all of John Green’s books (thoughRead More
Megan G reviews Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli
Leah feels like she’s always on the off-beat. She loves to draw but is so self-conscious she barely shows anyone her drawings, let alone allows herself to think about selling them for money. Her mother is much younger than the parents of her friends, and currently dating a man Leah thinks she is way tooRead More
