It’s been a wild ride into 2016, but it has also been a fun one. I am back to blogging how I want to be and I am loving it. I hope that you are too. I am trying to get at least 3 posts a week up, sometimes it’s more depending when books need to be reviewed by or if a discussion comes to mind. Are you liking the 3 posts a week? I read quite a bit in January and also posted a whole lot more. So let’s get on it. 

–The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson | 4.5 Stars: The Unexpected Everything is for every author, book lover and reader alike. It’s a beautiful story of friendship, heartbreak and family. Morgan Matson brings together a beautiful contemporary novel that makes you smile, laugh and cry. | Review coming soon.
–Beyond the Stars by Stacy Wise | 3.5 Stars: I liked the fluffiness and cuteness of Beyond the Stars, I also enjoyed both Jessica and Jack, however the plot and the romance fell flat for me. It had me wishing for more. | Review
–Salt to Sea by Ruta Sepetys | 5 Stars: Beautiful, captivating, extraordinary. Salt to the Sea is a gorgeous novel that brings to light a catastrophe that seems to be forgotten. | Review

– The Next Together by Lauren James | 4 Stars: A heartbreaking story of love that is so strong that it last forever, just through different people all with the same name. It was gorgeous. | Review coming soon. 
– My Sister Rosa by Justine Larbalestier | 4 Stars: I am very confused with how I feel about this book. It messed with my brain and still is. I thought it was fantastic but gosh did it frustrate me a lot. I just feel so angry with it. In saying that Justine Larbalestier is brilliant. | Review coming soon.
– You’re Still the One by Rachel Harris | 4 Stars: Typical Rachel Harris that I know and love. | Review coming soon

– Hallowed Ground by Rebecca Yarros | 4 Stars: Hallowed Ground was a beautiful read that intertwined, family both by blood and friendship. Loss that can bring people closer together or tear some apart. About doing what is right for you and the ones that you love and forgiveness and what it truly means to forgive not only others but yourself. | Review

As part of the Contemporary Romance Challenge, there is a wrap up post that needs to be done. I am just doing mine here, because everything comes together. You can check out the January link up here and see what others have posted.  You can also sign up to the challenge here. This is the first year that I am participating in something like this so I am pretty excited. 

These are contemporary romance books that I have read in the month of January. I have been on a contemporary binge so there is a few.  You can check out my goodreads shelf here. I will adding all the contemporary romance books that I read here. Not all of them will have full written reviews on my blog, but all will be rated with a small review on goodreads.
