Book Spotlight: Places We’ve Never Been by Kasie West

Welcome to book spotlight where instead of giving you another book review, I’m just going to talk about books I’ve read recently that I enjoyed. Prepare yourself for the fangirl gushing. Last year, I made it my goal to read through all of Kasie West's YA contemporary novels. (I'm still debating about reading her other series.) I …

Book Review: Once Upon an Irish Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

It is so relieving to continually enjoy new books by favorite authors. For some reason, I'm always worried that I'll pick up their latest book and won't like it. But when it comes to Lisa T. Bergren's books, I'm never disappointed. Fiona Burke is one step away from finishing her dissertation on famed pirate queen, …

Book Review: Once Upon an Alaskan Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

I wasn't so much interested in reading Once Upon an Alaskan Summer as I was in supporting Lisa T. Bergren and her books. Contemporary romance, especially a Christian romance, isn't my preferred genre. But I've been a longtime fan of Lisa's books, so I decided to read this book to help give her books a …

Book Review: Somewhere We Only Know by Maurene Goo

One of my bookish pet peeves is insta-love. I don't think it's realistic that people could know each other for a few hours, a few days, even a few weeks and "fall in love." I believe love takes time and effort. But every once in a while, I'm able to put aside that pet peeve …

Book Review: The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston

Geekerella by Ashley Poston is one of my all-time favorite YA contemporary novels. I love how she seamlessly mashes the love of fandom with an age-old fairy tale plot. So of course, I had to read the sequel/companion novel, The Princess and the Fangirl, and I am thrilled that this book is another amazing blend …

Book Review: Cold Day in the Sun by Sarah Biren

I'm not a sports person and contemporary isn't my favorite genre to read (though it is growing on me) so Cold Day in the Sun by Sara Biren might be an odd choice for me to pick up. But after reading it, I will admit that I need more YA books about hockey in my …

Book Review: Famous in a Small Town by Emma Mills

Emma Mills has a knack for writing a book that will make you laugh and cry, possibly at the same time. I like Foolish Hearts, but Famous in a Small Town blew me away in a manner most YA contemporary books never can. Determined to raise enough money for her high school marching band to march …

Book Review: Once Upon a Montana Summer by Lisa T. Bergren

Contemporary romance novels are not my usual reading choice, but I make an exception when it comes to Lisa T. Bergren's books. I had the privilege to read an early copy of Once Upon a Montana Summer, and I found myself enjoying this adorable romance set against the gorgeous backdrop of Glacier, Montana. After Adalyn …
