I knew I was going into this reading slump, I could feel it. I never really plan what books I am going to read each month, most of the time, I read whatever I am feeling like. If there is a new release or a review book that I need to read that is really the only certainty. But my reading in March was just slow for me. I was really busy with work, life was a little crazy, and I just didn’t know what to read. 

But anyway, I ended up reading 7 books in March, and I only loved about 2 of them. So I was having a pretty bad month even with the books that I was reading. Anyway, here are the books that I read in March. 

Defending Morgan (Mountain Mercenaries #3) by Susan Stoker: I really wanted to like this one, but I just couldn’t get into it. I liked the concept of the novel. But I felt that the characters were all one dimensional and I didn’t feel like they had substance. I could feel the connection between Arrow and Morgan a little, but it just all went way to fast. Everything just feels flat to me. I also have no idea what I kept on reading. 

Lover at Last (Black Dagger Brotherhood #11) by J.R. Ward: I thought I had read this one, but I hadn’t. In saying that I really wanted to love this one. As soon as these characters were introduced, I need to know their story. But I didn’t love it as much as I wanted to. I was really disappointed that this one wasn’t a story solely about Qhuinn and Blay. I think they both deserved that. Nevertheless, the parts that were about Qhuinn and Blay were really good. I loved getting to know them ever more and loved seeing them together – finally. 

Mac (Desert Sinners MC, #1) by Rachel Lyn Adams: I didn’t hate this one, I didn’t. But I also didn’t like it. There were some parts of this book that didn’t really sit with me. I have read some really good motorcycle club books over the past couple of years, I’ve also read some pretty bad ones. And Mac sits in the middle. There were some parts that I really enjoyed and other parts turned me off. Nevertheless, I might continue this series in the future, but I am not sure. 

Brick (Cooper Construction #1) by Jen Davis: Like with motorcycle club books, I’ve also read a range of  ‘gang’ books. And this one has to be one my less favourite. I am not even sure why I kept on reading. It wasn’t for me at all. I just didn’t like the protagonists, the characters, the plot. Nothing really. 

Extra Credit: Three Ivy Years Novellas (The Ivy Years #6) by Sarina Bowen: I had already read two of these Novella’s before, but I decided to re-read them both and read the newest edition from Sarina Bowen. And can I just say that I adored it so much? Yesterday would have to be my favourite of the three. It was fantastic seeing John and Graham again. 

Eyes on Me by Rachel Harris: Was a fantastic read. It’s a lighthearted romance novel that explores friendship, new romances, but also looks at grief and learning to overcome it. The writing was easy to read and the romance was just adorable. Rachel Harris has a knack for writing very real characters and she does it yet again in Eyes on Me. Read my full review.

Coming Up for Air (Hundred Oaks) by Miranda Kenneally: It was a little bittersweet reading the final book in this series as I have been reading it for some time now. But Coming up For Air was a great way to finish it all off. It explores coming of age, being a teen and looking into the future. You will laugh, you will smile and you might even cry. Maggie and Levi are adorable together, but also have fantastic character arcs of their own. If you are looking for a cute, quick read, then this one if for you.
