First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston

Review: Most important thing to say here is please READ OTHER REVIEWS and don't rely on just mine because I seem to be so far in the minority on this one ... but this felt very meh :(
I liked the idea of all the flashbacks leading us to present day Evie, but eventually I kinda forgot where we were and why we were there (and why I cared). The slog during the middle was real, y'all.
The writing wasn't bad and I definitely would pick up another thriller by this author, but with all the thrillers you can pick up in bookstores these days, this one would not be my recommendation.

If Something Happens to Me by Alex Finlay

Thank you to Edelweiss, Minotaur Books, & Macmillan for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: This book was entirely not what I was expecting, but I don't know if that was a bad thing. *shrugs*
I was invested from the get-go, and I really liked the multiple POVs that we got - I thought it kept you hooked while providing just enough information to keep you guessing. Sort of piggy-backing on what I said above, this thriller was nothing like what I expected so there were a lot of times I was surprised until I understood the direction we were going and then it was a bit easier to see what was coming next.
Although one thing I *really* appreciated was that the two "MCs" did NOT end up together at the end - it really kept this one believable that their relationship was important enough to both of them to not let each other go until there was some kind of closure, but also that the relationship would not have survived past that closure.

Thank you to Edelweiss, Gallery Books, & Simon & Schuster for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: Another winner from Christina Lauren! (Which is good because the last one I read from them was Something Wilder and that was ... not it)
There was a bit of suspending disbelief to make this one work, but in a way that felt fun and escapist instead of ridiculous. I genuinely loved the relationship between the two MCs, and the fake dating trope worked really well here.
There's honestly not a whole lot to say other than I've read 13 of Christina Lauren's books (starting after the Beautiful Bastard series, so I can't speak for those) and I would solidly recommend this one!

This Summer Will Be Different by Carley Fortune
Bring | ✨Borrow✨ | Bypass
Thank you to Edelweiss, Berkley, & Penguin Random House for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: Look. I don't know if anything will ever hit the magic that was Every Summer After (gah I LOVED), but I liked this one a lot more than Meet Me at the Lake and I know I'll want to read Carley Fortune's next book, so I'm taking that as a win.
The chemistry between Lucy and Felix was 🔥🔥 and I particularly loved the parts of the book that dealt specifically with them, and I think the thing that was missing (for me) was more of an emphasis on their relationship. I did appreciate the attempt to also highlight the importance of Lucy's friendship with Bridget (Felix's sister, hello best friend's brother trope), but it was almost like trying to place the importance on both of these relationships ensured that neither one took center stage. (Maybe that was the point?)
Overall it's still recommended, and can we just get a shoutout for whoever is designing these covers because they are SO BEAUTIFUL together?!?!?

Thank you to NetGalley, Knopf, & Penguin Random House for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: This one hooked me in the beginning, lost me for about 2-3 chapters in the middle-ish, and then hooked me back and didn't let go.
I really enjoyed the back and forth with the daughter's story going from the day she was missing onwards, and the mother story going from X days before down to 1 day before missing - it really kept the tension going as you learned things in the present day that you knew the mother wouldn't have known when she was going through her part in the story.
I thought the characters were drawn really well and acted in believable (although occasionally scummy) ways, and really agree with other reviews I've seen that the highlight of the book is the relationship between mothers and daughters.
Will definitely be reading more from Kimberly McCreight!
(Also, this gave me Gillian McAllister vibes - that adult child / parent dynamic in a thriller setting!)

Very Bad Company by Emma Rosenblum

Review: If you're looking for a super quick book to read about a lot of super shady people with not a lot of redeeming qualities, look no further! It's not one that will stick with me forever, but I think it would be perfect for a pool or beach read. (Kinda gave me Katherine St. John vibes? Lion's Den/The Siren)
I was hoping for a bit more satire at sticking with the corporate lingo / events while everything is falling down around them, but it had just enough seriousness to it that I couldn't really say I got that satirical fun out of it.

Thank you to Edelweiss, Saga Press, and Simon & Schuster for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: I freaking loved this - I was kind of lukewarm on The Last Unicorn (PUT DOWN THE PITCHFORKS, PEOPLE), but I've been on a bit of a fantasy kick and it was Peter S. Beagle plus DRAGONS, so, you know, you've got to give it a shot.
I am so glad I did, y'all.
This felt like Patricia Wrede's Enchanted Forest series with a dash of Princess Bride plus a splash of Brian Jacques' Redwall series and the tiniest tiniest dollop of Lloyd Alexander's Chronicles of Prydain (aka The Black Cauldron series), and it was truly such a good bookish recipe.
My favorite thing about this was the subtle ways that fantasy tropes were subverted; it felt clever and fun without being disparaging of the genre. I loved all of the characters (even the smallest of side characters felt fully put together in my mind) and thought the dialogue and pacing worked so well.
ALSO, the HOUSE DRAGONS? sign me the heck up.
It's definitely not laugh out loud funny, and a bit too dark to be considered "cozy" fantasy (imo), but it hits the spot at being familiar and whimsical and lovely, with great characters and a believable and interesting plot. I truly hope there's a sequel kicking around somewhere, because I would LOVE to read a continuation of this series and see where the characters go from here.
MINOR:I willllllllllllll say that the dragons being considered "pests" worth of extermination was difficult at the beginning, because there is a scene where the castle is being emptied of the dragons - but I would have felt the same if I was reading a book talking about exterminating a castle full of rats. It was just sad to see /read about all of the dragons being killed. :(

The Five Year Lie by Sarina Bowen

Thank you to Edelweiss, Harper Paperbacks, & HarperCollins for the opportunity to read and review this book before it's publication date! This in no way affected my review, opinions are my own.
Review: First things first, this seems to be a super unpopular opinion. Second things second, if you liked Laura Dave's The Last Thing He Told Me, I think you'd enjoy this novel.
Now for my thoughts -> *hides behind hands*
This one is difficult - I think it could have made a really decent movie where you got to see chemistry between Ariel and Drew, but I didn't really feel connected to their romance, and, unfortunately, the majority of the plot hinges on you feeling that theirs was an absolutely impossible and once in a lifetime love.
The ending would also have worked better in a movie, because I think it's easier to suspend disbelief when you're watching a film than when reading (too much time to go "uhhhhh would that happen though? really?" as opposed to just going with the flow!).
The middle was the strongest part for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed Zain's parts in the story(but do not get me started on how his part in the story ends because wtf) . Zain & Ariel figuring out the mystery was really interesting, and I liked their banter/conversations.
I will say I liked the writing / characterization / dialogue well enough, and I would read another from Sarina Bowen - just hoping the plot & romance feels stronger in the next one.

Review: Welp, it's official. I'm obsessed with Rebel Blue Ranch and with Lyla Sage. Picked up Done & Dusted on a whim based on some reviews I had seen on Bookstagram and I'm really glad I had the foresight to also recommend this one because I NEEDED to be able to read this one immediately after finishing the Done & Dusted.
And while I'll admit that Wes & Ada's story didn't pack as much of a punch for me as Emmy & Luke, it was such a slight difference in enjoyment I'm not even going to go into it. Both books were so fun and I continue to enjoy the characters, the family element, the settings, the romance/steam, and the plotlines. Absolutely solid series and I can't wait to for the next installment!!!

Review: This was SO. DANG. FUN. I went into this one pretty much blind - I had seen some people talking about it on Bookstagram and I thought the covers were really fun, so I put a Libby hold on this one plus the sequel (Swift & Saddled). They both became available around the same time, so I figured "Why not, I can just abandon my TBR!" ... and I am SO glad I did because this was exactly what I needed to read. It had a perfect amount of spice (oof) plus really great characters and the absolute BEST setting - I felt like I was *on* the ranch pretty much the entire time I was reading.
I loved both of the main characters in Done & Dusted so much, and I can tell I am going to be ready for any and absolutely all books to come out of the Rebel Blue Ranch series. Highly recommend!
(Re-reading that review it feels like a lot of "I LOVED THIS BOOK" and not a lot of substance, but you get what you get, okay? Just read the book, I LOVED IT.)
