April 14-may 15

Tohru Honda’s cheerful optimism acts as a balm to many in the Sohma family, who are no strangers to darker emotions. With Tohru in the mix, the household passes its days in relative harmony, even having Kisa over for a “sleepover” and some good old fun. Unfortunately, not every Sohma looks kindly upon the intrepid interloper! Kisa and Tohru have become fast friends, but sharp-tongued middle schooler Hiro Sohma isn’t too happy about this turn of events–and decides to take it out on Tohru?! Later, as everyone’s thoughts turn to summer and fall, the normalls docile Hatsuharu suddenly snaps, turning into a raging bull at school and putting even “Black Haru” to shame. Will Tohru’s soothing presence have any effect at all?!

Review : this one was a bit slower than the others but I still loved it we meet two new zodiac members .

Book Review: Misadventures of a curvy girl Sierra Simone

Misadventures of a Curvy Girl (Misadventures Book 18)

Misadventures of a Curvy Girl by Sierra Simone

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


April 24-28

For the first time in her life, Ireland Mills is happy with her body. No more fad diets, no more hiding from every camera in the room, no more low self-esteem. She’d rather be alone than with someone who’ll only love her if she’s skinny.

Caleb Carpenter and Ben Weber are everything Ireland and the Kansas Chamber of Commerce dreamed of when conceptualizing the “Real Kansas” promotional campaign. They’re handsome, young, educated, and totally dedicated to their small prairie town.

When Ireland’s Prius gets stuck on a Kansas dirt road and a massive storm rips through town, she’s left stranded with nowhere to turn but to Caleb and Ben. These two hunky country boys are impossible to ignore, but could they ever be interested in her as well?

Caleb and Ben are more than interested…and they’re willing to share. After their first night together, they know this has to be more than a one-time thing. They need to make her theirs forever. But can they convince Ireland they love her, curves and all?

Review : loved this book I related to Ireland a lot she dumped her dick of a boyfriend who didn’t accept her body. So on a work trip to take photos of a farm . She meets caleb and then she meets Ben. Caleb and Ireland end up kissing then we meet Ben a former soldier and they all end up having sex see Ben and caleb do better with a third in a relationship. This book was a look into a polyamorous relationship. But when a storm hits the town and Ireland almost gets hurt Ben is scared and yells at her to go home . So she goes but forgot her camera so she goes back and Ben is there and he apologizes and wants her to stay and she does .They all start a relationship but when a reporter wants to do a story on Ireland who has been taking photos of the town and she gets made fun of online she leaves but she’s sad until she gets a visitor Ben and caleb’s ex girlfriend who tells her she needs to go back to them and fuck the haters mostly .So they showed up with flowers aww so sweet they go back and it flashes to Christmas and caleb proposes to Ireland and Ben it was so sweet.

Quotes

And started wearing the clothes everyone said I shouldn’t—crop tops and leggings and short dresses and over-the-knee boots—and I started taking dance classes for the hell of it, because it sounded fun and because I wasn’t going to care anymore about being the biggest woman in the room or the one who sweats the most or breathes the loudest. I was going to live in my body now.

You don’t care, remember? It’s better to be alone than with someone who doesn’t like you with the body you have.

Out in the circle of lamplight, Ben watches Caleb slowly go still, and they both let out a long breath. “She must be something,” Ben says, the heel of his palm still hard against his fly. He’s just as affected by the unfiltered and brutish sight of Caleb coming as I am, but he seems to have more control. Me, I’m on the edge of my own orgasm, my eyes still riveted on the sight of Caleb’s unflagging erection. But Ben is still all cool words and careful, catlike posture. Only his palm pressed to his covered cock gives him away. “She is,” Caleb rumbles, still catching his breath. “I can’t wait for you to meet her.” “Oh, I don’t think I’ll have to wait long,” Ben replies coolly. “She’s right here in the barn with us. Aren’t you, Ireland?

She hesitantly steps out of the stall, a flush high on her cheeks—one I know will be matched on Caleb’s face. Thirty-three years old, and he still blushes like he did in grade school


You’re done with that now. No more apologizing just because you’re scared of people walking away.

The fish are very nice fish,” Caleb promises. “They haven’t eaten a person in years.

You guys,” she admonishes, pushing us back with a flat palm to each of our chests. “I’m supposed to meet a reporter from the Star at any minute, and I can’t do that with lipstick all over my face and a used condom in my pocket.” “Well, obviously we’d throw the condom away after—” Her hand moves from my chest to my mouth. “Your talking privileges are suspended

It’s that word, isn’t it? Fat?” “Well, I don’t—” “Do you think fat means bad?” “I mean, I—” Hand wave. “It’s just a word, princess

Hooking Up by Helena Hunting

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


April 12-23
Amalie Whitfield is the picture of a blushing bride during her wedding reception ― but for all the wrong reasons. Instead of proclaiming his undying love, her husband can be heard, by Amalie and their guests, getting off with someone else. She has every reason to freak out, and in a moment of insanity, she throws herself at the first hot-blooded male she sees. But he’s not interested in becoming her revenge screw.

Mortified and desperate to escape the post-wedding drama, Amalie decides to go on her honeymoon alone, only to find the man who rejected her also heading to the same tiny island for work. But this time he isn’t holding back. She should know better than to sleep with someone she knows, but she can’t seem to resist him. They might agree that what happens on the island should stay on the island, but neither one can deny that their attraction is more than just physical.

Lex picks her up and takes her to his hotel and they start having sex I love lex and Amalie together. I felt so bad for Amalie cause Armstrong was a dick I knew he was a dick in the first book but turns out he and lex have always been in competition and lex saw Amalie first but Armstrong swooped in fucking dick. So after lex and Amalie get home they stop hooking up ruby and bane get engaged yay and lex wants to date Amalie but they do it in secret until the annulment is final . At the engagement party Armstrong finds his way there and starts to threaten Amalie fucking asshole he is and tries to get in her head about lex . Lex explains everything. The annulment is final cause if they divorced Armstrong would of had to pay her . Lex and Amalie get to be together officially . Bane and Ruby’s wedding happens I loved it onto to the next one .

Quotes

I get it. I know I’m irresistible.” My laugh comes out a sob. His lips touch my cheek. “No was the very last thing I wanted to say to you.”

Divorce could be quick.” I flinch—divorce is such an ugly word in our world. “He cheated on me less than twelve hours into our marriage. It hasn’t and won’t ever be consummated.” He clears his throat and taps his pen on the table. “Right. Okay. So we’ll proceed with the annulment, which is option two. We’ll cite it as fraudulent, since he entered the marriage without the intention of upholding fidelity.” I snort. “That’s a nice way of putting it. Is there an option three?” “Hire a hitman and dump the body in the river, but there’s a lot of loose ends there and it’s sort of a legal nightmare.” I smile at his horrible attempt at legal humor. 


sip my bubbly, watching curiously as he reaches into his messenger bag and pulls out a small case. Flipping it open, he withdraws a pair of glasses and slides them on. Dear sweet lord of all things panty melting, this has to be the sexiest man to ever walk the planet. The only thing that would make him sexier would be if he was holding a puppy, or better yet, a baby. “I didn’t know you wore glasses.



“Amalie. You can’t—” Armstrong tries to sit up, but he doesn’t seem to be able to coordinate the movement. “Shut up. Just shut the fuck up. I’m not done.” When he remains silent she continues. “The fact that you wanted me to act like your virgin bride every time we had sex was demeaning and I’ve been faking my orgasms for months. Also, your penis is small. It’s the smallest penis I’ve ever ridden. Or tried to ride. In fact, half the time I wasn’t even sure you were in. And you’re a premature ejaculator. I hope Brittany and whoever else you put your dick in enjoy their two minutes of humping followed by your horrifying orgasms. Let’s go, Lex.” 

Lex is just sexy period. Sexy Lexy is what I call him in my head

Bane’s lip curls and he claps a palm on the back of Armstrong’s neck, holding tight and getting in close. “You might want to keep your voice down, unless you’d like your nose broken again. I promise, cousin, no amount of surgery will make your face pretty again when I’m done

You’re ruining my engagement party because you can’t let shit go. I get that it’s hard for you to grasp that the world doesn’t revolve around you, but this isn’t the time or the place to air your grievances, or plead your case with Amie.” “I can’t get to her any other way. Everyone has made it impossible otherwise.” “And why do you think that is, Armstrong?” He peeks out from behind Bane. “Fuck you, Lexington. You can’t have what’s mine.” “Can I just punch him?” I look to my brother


I’m in love with her.” His frowns and hesitates. “I love her,” I repeat. “You better not be saying that just to avoid getting punched in the face.

Book Review: Shadow me Tahereh Mafi

Shadow Me (Shatter Me, #4.5)

Shadow Me by Tahereh Mafi

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


April 1-2



Fan favorite character Kenji Kishimoto narrates t his gripping companion novella to Tahereh Mafi’s New York Times bestselling Shatter Me series, set during the explosive events in Restore Me!

Juliette is still reeling from Warner’s betrayal, and Kenji is trying to balance his friendship with her with his responsibilities as a leader of the resistance against the Reestablishment. Things get even more interesting when an unexpected person from Omega Point’s past surfaces.

The ending of Restore Me left readers gasping, and this novella full of Kenji’s signature sass and big heart is the perfect story to tide fans over until Defy Me, the shocking fifth book in the Shatter Me series, hits shelves in April 2019.


Review : I love kenji did before reading this but I love him way more after being inside his head and knowing what he has to deal with . It is funny having seeing kenji trying to flirt with Nazeera and they both have the invisible ability and I think I’d like them together and I want kenji happy. This novella takes place in almost the end of restore me before juliette gets taken and we find out winston likes brendon which I kind of already guessed but very sweet. And Warner is dealing with the breakup and juliette also thought kenji knew about juliette being adopted and her sister and thought Kenji lied to her but he didn’t. At this event where juliette gets taken cause these people are fucking psychotic kenji literally had her in his arms then didn’t Can’t wait to read the next book .


Quotes : Everyone thinks I’m not supposed to give a shit—that I shouldn’t—but I do. I always do. And I give a shit about this asshole, too.

I hear someone whistle down the hall and I look up. Lily winks at me in an obvious, exaggerated way, and I roll my eyes. I’d really like to be flattered, because I’m not modest enough to deny that I have a nice body, but Lily could not give fewer shits about me. Instead, she does this—mocks me for walking around without a shirt on—nearly every morning.

They clearly have crazy chemistry. Their relationship never made a lot of sense to me—I couldn’t understand how someone like Warner could be an emotional partner to anyone, much less someone like Juliette: a girl who eats, sleeps, and breathes emotion. I rarely saw him emote anything. I worried that Juliette was giving him too much credit, that she put up with too much of his bullshit in exchange for—I don’t even know what. A sociopath with an extensive coat collection?


Winston’s been in love with Brendan for a long time, but I’m the only one who knows about it.

Fence, Vol. 2 by C.S. Pacat

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


March 25-25

Nicholas Cox is determined to prove himself in the world of competitive fencing, and earn his place on the Kings Row fencing team, alongside sullen fencing prodigy, Seiji Katayama, to win the right to go up against his golden-boy half-brother.

Tryouts are well underway at King’s Row for a spot on the prodigious fencing team, and scrappy fencer Nicholas isn’t sure he’s going to make the grade in the face of surly upperclassmen, nearly impossibly odds, and his seemingly unstoppable roommate, the surly, sullen Seiji Katayama. It’ll take more than sheer determination to overcome a challenge this big!

Review : I love this series I love the characters trying to hold out for volume 3 and not read the issue’s but we will see. Aiden beats seiji and seiji is pissed nicholas gets his first win and rubs it in seiji’s face and even Nicholas beats aiden but seiji beats Harvard. I ship aiden and Harvard like a lot . Harvard and aiden are next to fight against each other.

Book Review: Out Cara Dee

Out (Out, #1)

Out by Cara Dee

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


March 16-20

“I guess I always figured coming out was something you did for friends and family, and maybe it is, but it’s personal too, you know? The person I was last night is new. I wanna get to know him.”

I had two things on my list when I arrived in Los Angeles. One, track down Henry Bennington, the uncle and guardian of my little brother’s best friend, and tell him to get his ass back to Washington. He needed to do something about his nephew, who was turning into a douchebag. And two, figure out just how non-straight I was. For the past two years, I’d had all these fantasies, and now was the time to explore them, far away from my sleepy little town.

Nowhere on this list did it say, “Get Ty’s uncle into bed and fall for him.” I wasn’t supposed to fall in love with another city either. But between brunch, making new friends, and discovering the man I was meant to be, I lost sight of the future that had once seemed pretty damn vivid. How the hell was I supposed to merge my old life and who I used to be with the new dreams Los Angeles and Henry had awakened in me?

Review : Zach goes to California to get his brothers best friend Ty’s uncle to help him cause Ty is turning into a dick. Ty lost his parents young and is being raised by his grandparents who are bigots and disowned Henry . Zach is looking to experiment cause he doesnt think he is straight and Henry is catching his eye and after one night at a bar and lots of drinking and having fun they end up kissing . I love zach and Henry together even though there is an age difference it shouldn’t matter cause how they feel about each other matters . Ty finally comes out and Henry and him finally talk slash fight . Zach has to leave to go home but Henry is like oh it’s ok if you want to sleep with someone else and that makes zach mad I would be to I think it was dickish of Henry. Zach ends up getting beat up by some homophobic idiots Henry is there for him and zach ends up getting a modeling job loved this book.

Quotes :Can I come out to anyone, or am I gonna be the last to know I’m gay?”


What are your plans for the day?” Martin asked. With a wave of his hand, he added, “Other than screwing each other’s brains out.

that, I froze. Henry grew still too, and Martin rolled his eyes. “Good God, we share a wall, Henry.”


I don’t mean to be a dick, Zach, but…” He shifted in his seat, hesitant. “I kinda already assumed you were queer. Or gay, sorry.” My eyebrows shot up. “The fuck? Is there a sign on my forehead or something?” “No, but there’s gay porn on your computer at home,” he replied frankly

Book Review: Let’s get textual Tegan Hunter

Let's Get Textual (Texting, #1)

Let’s Get Textual by Teagan Hunter

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


March 12-15


A wrong number is supposed to be just that—a wrong number.

Delete. Done.

Do not continue to text. Do not flirt.

A wrong number shouldn’t be the first person on your mind in the morning, or the last at night…and you’re definitely not supposed to talk them into buying a baby goat.

Because that would be weird.

When Zach Hastings and I get into a wrong-number mix-up, we don’t follow the rules. We keep texting and flirting, because he’s wicked funny and perfectly nerdy and a wonderful distraction.

I’m not looking for love, and Zach definitely had the wrong number.

But maybe…

Maybe he’s the right guy.



Review : I loved this book it was so cute and funny . Delia ends up breaking up with her boyfriend who is better as friend than a boyfriend and then she gets a wrong number who turns out to be zach and they have great conversation and they talk a lot . They have phone movie nights until her best friend makes her ask Zach out and they go on an amazing date . Zach got a freaking baby goat as a pet named marshmallow awwwwwwwwwwwww . Things are going great until they go to his parents house for thanksgiving everything was perfect until Delia found out Zach’s step brother is a guy who fucked her friend and left and he’s a total dick . Then Delia’s ex boyfriend tells her a photo got out and he only knew it was her cause they dated and Delia thinks Zach did it but after she gets home and is crying over ice cream her ex and her best friend tell her it was probally Zach’s step brother cause that didn’t sound like zach as a person this part made me mad i’m like comunicate with each other Delia and her best friend goat nap marshmallow Zach and Delia make up I loved this book .

Quotes :
Zach: How come when I order a large pizza for myself for lunch I receive one of “those” looks from the delivery guy? Me: Wait, wait, wait…you work from home? Zach: Yes, but not the point. Let’s focus on the pizza delivery guy and his sassy stares here. Me: Well I imagine you’re answering the door in your pajamas with uncombed hair, so you appear all sad and heartsick…or just sick. Or weird. Or a creeper. Yeah, you know what, you DO look like a creeper. Zach: I would take offense, but you’re probably right. Me: Probably? Zach: That’s the story I’m sticking with. Me: I think the point of view on your story is skewed. Zach: YOU’RE SKEWED. Zach: God. That was awful. Forget I sent that. Me: screenshot Zach: You’re evil. I knew there was at least one redeeming quality about you. Me: And what about my smart mouth? Zach: You’re right—one and a half. Me: I’ll take my winnings where I can.

Zach: Yes? Me: I…I didn’t mean to bring up your mom. I had no idea. Zach: Don’t sweat it. You’re still my favorite penis potholder maker…this week. Me: Is there anything else I should know about you? Any other subjects that are off the table? Zach: I hate clowns and bunnies. That’s about it. Me: I’m sorry…BUNNIES?! How is that possible? Zach: Don’t judge me. I’m sure there’s something weird out there that you’re afraid of.


“Are you going to touch your dick the entire night? On the couch? Because other people sit there too, ya know. Don’t be uncouth. It’s not cool, man.” “I’m not touching my dick.” “But are you thinking about touching your dick?” I hear the other guy in the room snap his fingers. “Ah ha! Hesitation! You were thinking about touching your dick.” “Oh my god. This could not possibly be more awkward,” Zach mumbles. “I don’t know, I think it could be worse,” I tell him. “Shut up,” he responds to me…I think. “No, you shut up. You’re the one who ditched us tonight,” his friend chimes in. I snicker and hear Zach groan. “I didn’t ditch you, Robbie.” “You did. You ditched us for your dick.” “I am not touching my dick!” I have a feeling that last statement was for Robbie and me. “Not right now, but you’re going to. I live with you—I know things about you.” Another groan from Zach. “This is the most awkward moment of my life.” “Does he not know I’m here?” I question. Zach doesn’t answer, and I’m assuming his buddy has no clue we’re on the phone. “Robbie, please, I am begging you to leave already…” “Why? Am I embarrassing you? Why are your cheeks so red?” I can hear the ticking from here… “Because I am on the phone with a woman, you moron!” Zach explodes like a bomb. “I have my Bluetooth in because we’re trying to watch a show.” I can imagine him sitting there, red-faced and waving his arms around in desperation, and the image is enough for me to laugh hysterically. “Knock it off!” “Knock what off?” Robbie questions. “Not you, her!” I laugh harder and Zach growls in my ear. “Are you watching the show, like, together?” “Yes!” “Aw, that’s the cutest, pussiest shit I have ever heard—ow! Stop throwing things!” Robbie yells. “Whatever. I’m outie. Don’t wait up, bitch.” A door clicks closed in the background and an exasperated sigh slips through Zach’s lips. “Can we hit play yet?” “Yeah, Zach, we can hit play, but can I ask you something first?” “Shoot.” “Are you really touching your dick?” Zach mutters a “Dammit, Delia” before saying, “I’m hitting play.”


Because I’ll let you touch my butt?” My body quakes with laughter the moment the words leave his mouth. “What? I’ll have you know I have a fantastic ass, Delia. You’ll want to touch it, and you’ll want to touch it often.”
