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.

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.

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.”

Book Review : Emergency Contact Mary H.K Choi

Emergency Contact

Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Jan 9- 26


For Penny Lee high school was a total nonevent. Her friends were okay, her grades were fine, and while she somehow managed to land a boyfriend, he doesn’t actually know anything about her. When Penny heads to college in Austin, Texas, to learn how to become a writer, it’s seventy-nine miles and a zillion light years away from everything she can’t wait to leave behind.

Sam’s stuck. Literally, figuratively, emotionally, financially. He works at a café and sleeps there too, on a mattress on the floor of an empty storage room upstairs. He knows that this is the god-awful chapter of his life that will serve as inspiration for when he’s a famous movie director but right this second the seventeen bucks in his checking account and his dying laptop are really testing him.

When Sam and Penny cross paths it’s less meet-cute and more a collision of unbearable awkwardness. Still, they swap numbers and stay in touch—via text—and soon become digitally inseparable, sharing their deepest anxieties and secret dreams without the humiliating weirdness of having to see each other.

Review : I loved this book . Penny is ready to get to collage her and her mom are always butting heads . When she gets to college she meets her roommate’s friend they all meet at a cafe House where Penny meets Jude and where she also meets Sam. Sam is going through a lot his crazy ex girlfriend tells him she’s pregnant and he’s freaking out and ends up having a anxiety attack on the side of the street that’s where penny finds him and they agree to be each other’s emergency contact so they just end up texting . They end up talking a lot until her mom vists and they go to house and sam told her he would call her and he never did Sam got depressed his ex wasn’t pregnant now . Penny was dealing with school and her writing and then she gets an email from Sam and she shows up at house and tells him they should be actual friends who hang out . They never told Jude they were friends and she find out when she gets a text from Sam and Jude is pissed at her . Penny ‘s mom is in the hospital cause she had a weed brownie for her birthday so she called same and they drove to the hospital and when penny found out what happened she left to go back to school . She spends the night with Sam and they end up kissing and she bolts . Jude and Sam end up talking and she asks Sam about Penny . Penny’s mom shows up and they talk it out and Sam shows up and they talk and he’s into her it was a cute ending .


Quotes : “Penny believed with her whole heart that there were moments – crucial instances – that defined who someone was going to be. There were clues or signs, and you didn’t want to miss them.”

Book Review : The Virgin novelist Meghan Quinn

The Virgin Romance Novelist (The Virgin Romance Novelist, #1)

The Virgin Romance Novelist by Meghan Quinn

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Jan 24 – 25


From USA Today Bestselling Author Meghan Quinn, comes a hilarious romantic comedy that will touch your heart and cause you to roar with laughter as you escape into Rosie Bloom’s attempt to write a romance novel.

Her bosom heaved at an alarming rate as his rough hand found its way down to her soft, yet wiry briar patch…

Can you say briar patch in a romance novel? What about breasts? Do bosoms really heave?

Goodness, I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m a virgin attempting to write a romance novel and I’m having an impossible time trying to write a passionate and swoon-worthy love scene worthy of being published, thanks to my lack of experience.

My two best friends encourage me to drop the pen, step outside my comfort zone, and gain some real life experience through multiple dating facets such as blind dates, online profiles, and random hookups. But losing my “flower” is proving to be much tougher than expected…

This is the story of my awkward, humiliating, and slightly terrifying life, but like all romance novels, I know it will end in a happily ever after. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.

**WARNING: READ IN THE CONFINES OF YOUR OWN HOME DUE TO RANDOM OUTBURSTS OF LAUGHTER. IF YOU ARE ADDICTED TO CLIFFHANGERS, GETTING YOUR HEART RIPPED OUT OF YOUR CHEST AND FEELING LIKE A BULLDOZER JUST PLOWED THROUGH YOUR STOMACH, THEN THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR YOU. IF YOU LIKE PEEING YOUR PANTS AND CRYING FROM LAUGHING SO HARD, THEN PLEASE CONTINUE READING.



Review : I loved this book it was so cute and funny as fuck . So Rosie is a magazine writer who is trying to be a writer and she’s also a virgin and her roommates Delaney and Henry tell her she needs to get out there and loose it . so she starts going on these dates and writing notes in a notebook but it doesn’t go well first she kicks a guy in the crotch . Then she rips her pants on the second one . And in meanwhile her best friend Henry has been flirting more and more with her she has always had feelings for him but she knew She wasn’t his type so why is he flirting with me she’s thinking . Henry finally confesses his feelings to Rosie and ends up kissing her but she doesn’t know what to do she doesn’t want to ruin the friendship but she can’t be without Henry . He ends up leaving for the weekend and she goes on this date with this guy with a dog and it didn’t end well and she ends up going to her parents with Henry for brunch and then they go back to the apartment and end up having sex and it was great I love them together and then bombshell she receives a call from the guy she kicked in the crotch and then Henry gets hurt but Rosie didn’t see that . And Henry ends up moving out and she’s depressed until Delany and her Fiance trick her into going to Henry’s place and leave her . They talk and they finally get together I really loved this book it was so cute and funny.

Quotes : There is a whole community out there who loves love, who loves romance, and I’m one of them. It’s a world I love living in, where there are happily ever afters, the odd girl gets the good looking guy, and where chivalry isn’t lost. I know it can’t all be true, that life isn’t as grand as some novels make it out to be, but I still love every single story because it’s an escape from reality, a moment in time where you can daydream of the impossible, where there is a chance of watching true love unfold right in front of you.”

Book Review : Jack of Hearts Lev A.C Rosen

Jack of Hearts (And Other Parts)

Jack of Hearts by Lev A.C. Rosen

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Dec 11 – Jan 23

Pretty Little Liars meets Dan Savage in this modern, fresh, YA debut about an unapologetically queer teen working to uncover a blackmailer threatening him back into the closet.

Jack has a lot of sex–and he’s not ashamed of it. While he’s sometimes ostracized, and gossip constantly rages about his sex life, Jack always believes that “it could be worse.”

But then, the worse unexpectedly strikes: When Jack starts writing a teen sex advice column for an online site, he begins to receive creepy and threatening love letters that attempt to force Jack to curb his sexuality and personality. Now it’s up to Jack an his best friends to uncover the stalker–before their love becomes dangerous.

Ground-breaking and page-turning, Jack of Hearts (and other parts) celebrates the freedom to be oneself, especially in the face of adversity.


Review : I loved this book this is about Jack who is gay and very open to have sex just no relationship he wants to have fun . His friend Jenna asks him to do a column on sex for her site and he finally agrees . He starts getting these pink notes and they start to freak him out they were creepy as fuck . They start get threatening his friends Jenna and Ben . And they get mad when he continues to hook up with more guys and he starts getting depressed . until one day when he’s in the boys bathroom and he hears the three girls who gossip about him one of them has paper cuts and he fugues it out it’s Caitlin first I didn’t expect it to be a girl . He records her confessing and gets her expelled good that girl had issues . Jack is back to his self and enjoying his life .

Quotes : “Jack?” Mom calls from outside my room. “You home?” “Just a sec, Mom,” I yell back. Peter stares at me, gives me a “what do I do?” look, and I just shake my head. I throw my sheets in a pile on the bed as Mom knocks on my door. “Mom, I have a friend over,” I say through the door. There’s a pause. Somehow I can hear the expression on her face. I look over at Peter, who’s gotten his clothes on, and shrug apologetically. He smiles—this is funny to him, now that he’s dressed. I open the door. My mom is standing right up against it, her expression matching Peter’s. “Hi,” she says, her voice innocent. She looks past me at Peter, who waves. “I’m Jack’s mom, Ruth.” “Hi,” Peter says, and to my relief no one offers to shake hands. Peter hasn’t washed his yet. “I’m Peter.” “Nice to meet you


I know it’s not the same—gay and asexual—but I want to tell you as someone who thought they were broken, and everyone was staring at them and knew, that you are not broken. Plus, you might not be asexual, you might just not be interested in sex now, or only be interested in sex with people once you know them and have a bond with them, or maybe you’re only turned on by a very particular kind of sex or fetish that you haven’t discovered. But as long as everyone is consenting, there’s nothing wrong with your desire, or with your not having desire. We’re all wired differently.



in that moment, I get to be me. And if you don’t like that, fuck off.
