Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver

“If not a friend, why friend shaped?” My bestie chat and I say this all the time to each other about wild animals, and don’t think for one second one of us wouldn’t try to pet a bear if given the opportunity.

I didn’t think it was possible to love Wild Eyes as much as I loved Wild Love, but here we are. I loved everything about this book, but my heart 100% belongs to Emmie and Oliver. They are two of the cutest kids that I think have ever been written. Emmie is such a firecracker, and Oliver has such a sweet soul. I need 74 more books in this series, if only to read more about those two.

I loved the chemistry between Skyler and West. I hated what Skyler had to go through to get to West, but I’m glad it wasn’t all just glossed over. We felt her pain as much as she did. The friendships between the characters were also fantastically well done. I loved seeing Rosie and Ford come back and interact with the story.

Again, I have no bad things to say about this book other than I’m devastated I’ll never read it again for the first time.

Is One Truly the Loneliest Number?

I was given a digital copy of One? by Jennifer L. Cahill. She reached out to me through Twitter, and she was so sweet. I couldn't wait to dive into her book.💙 The Plot (From Goodreads): It's London in the mid-noughties before Facebook, iPhones and ubiquitous wifi. Zara has just moved to London for her first real job and struggles to find her feet in a big city with no instruction manual. Penelope works night and day in an investment bank with little or no time for love. At twenty-eight she is positively ancient as far as her mother is concerned and the pressure is on for her to settle down as the big 3-0 is looming. Charlie spends night and day with his band who are constantly teetering on the verge of greatness. Richard has relocated to London from his castle in Scotland in search of the one, and Alyx is barely in one place long enough to hold down a relationship let alone think about the future. One? follows the highs and lows of a group of twenty-somethings living ...

Athena's Choice by Adam Boostrom

I received my copy of Athena's Choice from the promotional team on Instagram in exchange for my honest review. The year is 2099, and men have been absent from the earth for almost 50 years after a virus accidentally wiped all of them from the earth. There's a project attempting to bring men back and it has become quite controversial. When the sabotaged project leads authorities to Athena, this completely normal teenager must decide if she wants to help find the culprit. This book was pretty interesting. It read almost like a movie. It's definitely something I would watch if there was ever an on screen translation. The details and imagination of the author were fun to read. Despite the fact that science fiction is not typically my thing, I did enjoy my time spent reading it....right up until the end. Before I go any farther, I just have to say it. The ending sucked. I HATEDDD it. It made me want to throw the book....

Lucy Dawson's Don't Ever Tell

Don't Ever Tell was written by Lucy Dawson and published by Bookouture, released on 06/25/19. I was granted early access to this book in exchange for my honest review. Because I got too click happy on NetGalley, I'm just now getting to it. I promise-one day I'll be caught up on my reading!!! Charlotte seems to have the perfect job, family, and life. Only she knows that her marriage is crumbling, and her husband is oblivious to the fact(because of COURSE he is). Little does he know that she has hired someone to be her, and when he realizes just who that person is life will change as they know it. The synopsis sounds like a typical thriller, but this one was more enjoyable than most. The writing allowed me to put some pieces of the puzzle together, just enough to keep me interested and reading. I couldn't put this book down. Charlotte was so easy to relate to, especially if you've ever been in an unhappy relationship. I loved th...
