The Fine Print by Lauren Asher

Are we going to talk about the fact that he manage to make her favourite author did a whole event just so she could get all her books signed for her? Because if someone doesn’t love me that much, I don’t want it.

Or the fact that he watched SEVENTEEN times Pride and Prejudice just because she’s obsesses with the movie? Because again, I just need that someone loved me the way Rowan loves Zhara.

I liked the whole atmosphere of princesses and dreamland. The way that all of them were so involved in it and believed in fairytale’s. Who wouldn’t want that?

I like the infinite optimism of Zhara, but the fact that she would draw a limit and stand up to Rowan each time that he acted like an idiot or screwed up, says a lot about how the character develop it’s personality throughout the book. Especially after all the crap that her ex put her through.

I actually started to read the book ‘cause I saw in TikTok that if you wanted to fall in love with the misunderstanding villain you should read this. But I don’t see where Rowan can be considered a villain in any possible way. Yes, he was kind of an ass sometimes, had daddy issues, and frustrated dreams, but beyond that, I don’t think so.

Anyways, I actually had a good time reading this book.

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

4.0

I actually started read the book in November of 2021, but for some reason, I just couldn’t go farther than chapter two. Two days ago or so I took it back and finished.

I did enjoyed the reading because of the fake dating, and the ‘I hate everyone but her’ thing. But it wasn’t what I expected, really. The book has a lot of hype and it’s not bad, not at all, I think it’s just not really the type of book that I read.

So, The Love Hypothesis tell us the history of a Canadian girl name Olive, who’s an student of an Ph.D. program at Stanford. One night, after lie to her best friend, Anh, telling her that she had a date with some random guy, so she wouldn’t feel guilty about seeing the ‘ex’ of Olive, (who’s actually not her ex at all) she goes to her lab hoping to be able to spend her night there, since in fact, she hadn’t such thing like a date. So, when she sees her friend in the hallway, in a desperate act, she has to kiss an stranger, who’s turns out to be the mayor asshole of all’s. According to what everyone’s says to her.

The history of Olive and Adam begins to development after that, and basically in an mutual agreement they begin to pretend dating each other.

Adam it’s such a gentleman throughout the whole narrative and Olive it’s just a piece of sunshine. I would say she’s too good for her own well being, and you can see it all the way down ‘till the end of the history.

There’s some drama, for sure, and I actually liked the book. It’s a light and quick read, there’s a lot of funny moments and Olive and Adam are cute, along with their relationship. But I was actually expecting something more in the epilogue, and for sure way more tension between those two.

It was a good book, and I fangirling over a tons of moments between Adam and Olive. He’s a man write by a woman, so what else can I say about him?

Dirty Like Me by Jaine Diamond

I like the fake dating trope, it’s one of my favourite along with the enemies to lovers. It was also an addictive and light reading, so it wasn’t so hard to finish the book in a ridiculously short amount of time.

Katie and Jesse has this incredibly tension at te begin, when they’re recording the musical video. It’s just volcanic, as Katie would said. And Devi was such a good friend all the time, without doubt she’s one of my favourites characters from the book. She’s just so loyal to Katie. I think we all need a Devi in our lives.

I enjoyed the book, there were funny moments, spicy ones and all the rockstar life is something that I wouldn’t mind to try at least once in life. But who wouldn’t, right?

Her Soul for Revenge by Harley Laroux

3.0

I actually liked the first half of the book, but then all goes repetitive. It’s the way that Juniper keeps trying to get herself and Zane killed. I was like ‘girl, you just can’t kill everything that goes in your way’.

The first 50 percent of the book was explosive, I enjoyed every word, but again I just couldn’t stand Juniper. I get it, she has a trauma because all the sacrificing thing, and the murder of her brother, but she wasn’t the only one that had lost someone.

Then again, why she was always getting herself in trouble? The way she couldn’t just seat and wait until the right time got me over the edge. She thought that she knew everything when in reality she didn’t knew half of the shit that was going on around her, seriously.

I loved all the fantasy that was immerse in the book. I actually love everything that has to do something with demons and stuff like that, so it was easier to keep reading it. The chemistry that the characters had was something else and Zane has my heart. The were a nice couple and the trama was also interesting. Never understood what the deep one was, I couldn’t picture it. It was bizarre but i couldn’t not like it. Iykyk.

The Maddest Obsession by Danielle Lori

I absolutely loved reading Christian and Gianna. It was just what I needed at the moment.

The back history of them it’s what you need to truly understand their characters and the way they act. Idk what else to say, I just loved it.

The tension, the possessive way he acted, every time that they had any interaction at all. The book make laugh, cry, and I’d fangirling every time that Christian talked in Russian or said something sweet to Gianna.

Of course that there were times when I feel the need to yelled at them because of their stubbornness, but I absolutely loved them.

From Lukov with Love by Mariana Zapata

I’ve loved reading this book. It’s a light and quick read, so you don’t have to put so much effort to finish it.

It’s five stars for me because of Jasmine, most of the time I’d go for the male character, but she has my heart. It was so easy to empathise with her and I can see so similarities between me and her that i couldn’t not love her. I just couldn’t.

I don’t think this qualifies as a romance book because it’s not almost at the last quarter of the book that the things between Ivan a Jasmine became more romantic. It focuses on the sport for most part and all the obstacles that Jasmine had. The problems that she had with herself at te beginning and the self-improvement along the book was something else. I love it.

Also, the support of her family was something that had me in tears because I think everybody deserves that kind of unconditional support. Ivan and her family are the pillars of her life and I think the kind of love that they give Jasmine is, again, everything that all of us deserved at some point in ours life. I hope that some day I would find someone that support me the way Ivan does with Jasmine.

For sure I was expecting something else, with an enemies to lovers more strong and a higher intensity between the characters. But I’m quite satisfied with how it come out so I’m not going to start complaining about it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
(actually, it just have one scene of smut, so I would say there’s no spicy in the book).
It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover

When I first started read this book I was set minded. I hated Ryle even when he hadn’t even appeared. And when he appeared I was like ‘you can’t be serious right now, Lily.’ I was putting everything that I had just to hate him because I saw so many things on TikTok about him and so many spoilers that I was telling myself ‘you can’t possibly love him.‘ Because in social medias is all about Atlas, and how everyone loves him so much.

I love Lily with all my heart and I never thought I could empathise the way I did with her. And I don’t see where y’all can make it about Atlas when in reality it’s all about Lily’s history. I mean, for sure, I loved Atlas, but that’s not where the history centres.

I feel so sad by the fact that I actually get to sympathies with Ryle. Again, when I first started to read it, I was thinking that he’ll be a manipulative son of a bitch and then there he goes acting all nice and caring. He actually have the weapons to make you fall for him. To make you understand him even when you know that he doesn’t deserve that shit. Even with all that had happened to him when he was a child, you know that doesn’t justify him.

When Lily says “Even if you would have walked into my bedroom and caught us in bed together, you still would not have the right to lay a hand on me.” It broke me because in real life if a man caught his girlfriend or wife in bed with some dude and he lay hands on her, people would say that she deserved it for being a whore. And it’s so unfair but so real that it scare the shit out of me just being a woman in the society of today’s.

When I read the note of Colleen I was so shocked. I cried my soul out when Lily ask for a divorced and put her daughter first. The way that she just brings out everything that happened with Ryle and sets it up as an example to him to understand just keep bringing tears at my eyes. The fact that all the history is inspired in something real gives me chill because before I read this book I thought the same that Lily thought about her mother, that I just would walk away and never look over my shoulder if something alike happened to me. But that’s the point, right?

I can’t wait to read It Starts With Us!

Your Dad Will Do by Katee Robert

I don’t got to say much. It’s not like you have a lot of a trama, it’s just sex. The chapters are very short and I liked that. And for sure I loved the daddy and baby girl thing.

But, seriously, wtf. How is it that you love someone in two days?? I’ve always considered myself as the type of person who doesn’t t relate love to time, because one person can make you feel in two months what another couldn’t in five years, but there’s nothing beyond sex in the relationship that Shane and Lily have.

It’s filthy and even dirtier, so yeah, if you want to read a good smut I think this might be the type of book you’re looking for.

Good Gone Bad by Giana Darling

5.0

After she killed Cricket for beat the shit out of her and almost raped her with his gun, she called Officer Danner instead of her family. They end up undercover in the rival MC to take it down, because the fuckers wouldn’t let her go even after the dead of her old man. So she’s stuck with the Berserkers, a MC that had her family under threat. She isolates from her family during all that time so she doesn’t put them in risk.

When Zeus showed up out of no where and he tells Hearleigh Rose that she isn’t a Garro anymore and that she was done with The Fallen I was so mad, because I thought way better than that from Z. The fact that he actually believes that H.R. would betray them make me so fucking mad. But I let it go because deep down I understand him, but I underestimated his intelligence, that’s for sure.

Dom Danner was something else. The trope of the guy with a dark side and a inside beast that becomes a cop to had it under control, it’s what gets me every fucking time. And, bad boy plus good girl? It’s good, I guess, but good boy who would do anything for his bad girl? That’s the winner, without question. I think that’s why this one it’s my favourite of the three.

I love King and Cressida, and Zeus with Loulou, but again, Rosie and Danner were the best. Their chemistry, the tension between them and the love that they had for each other. Master piece *chef kiss*
Welcome to the Dark Side by Giana Darling

I love the Garro men and I’m definitely going to read H.R. book.

Frankly? This is fucking bizarre because, a seven-year-old Lou writing letters to a twenty-six-year-old Zeus? And then he goes all “she have been mine since she was seven” I was like damn. Because if you read that it’s conflictive. At least it was for me.

But if you ignore the 19 years of difference, I love the dynamic between the two of them. The way she’s actually a lot more mature than I expected, but I’m pretty sure that that it’s because of the neglect of her parents and her illness.

I never connected that she was the girl that goes to drink tea with Cressida and when she mentioned I gasped.

Okey, forget that. Here we go. In this book you get to know more about The Fallen because Zeus it’s way more involved than King was in the first book, so you get to know the way they support and have each other’s back every time, no matter the circumstances. They’re this big and weird family that mess with each other but is always there if you need them. It’s about loyalty, love beyond limits.

You get to see how they really are under all the tattoos and the shitty face haha. So yeah, I liked that.

It made me really sad when Mute died, why the author had to kill him? It was fucking depressing, because you get to loved the character even when he only says a few words.

I’m going to read Hearleigh Rose and officer Danner, because the fucking tension between them.
