Monthly Wrap Up

My Last Ten Reads of 2024

Jan 26, 2025

2024 was a strange year. I didn’t read as much as I would have loved, but I still read some fantastic books. While December is always messy for me in retail, I still read quite a few books later in the year. So today I thought I would share the last ten books I read in 2024.

It was great, from new-to-me authors to series I’ve been wanting to read more from for a while. I honestly read some stand-out books towards the end of the year and I cannot wait to read more. The start of 2025 has already been fantastic so I cannot wait to see what the year brings.

But let’s get into it, here are the last ten books I read in 2024. And as always they are in no real order.

Rally (Treasure State Wildcats, #3) by Devney Perry – 4 Stars. | Greed (The Deadly Seven, #2) by Lana Pecherczyk. – 4 Stars | Swift and Saddled (Rebel Blue Ranch, #2) by Lyla Sage. 4 – Stars | Lost and Lassoed (Rebel Blue Ranch, #3) by Lyla Sage. – 4.5 Stars

A Pack for Autumn (Cozyverse, #1) by Emilia Emerson. – 3 Stars. | Hate You (Rebel Ink, #1) by Tracy Lorraine. – 3.5 Stars | Envy (The Deadly Seven, #1) by Lana Pecherczyk. – 4 Stars | Sweet as Puck (San Diego Seals Hockey, #1) by Ann Grech. – 2 Stars.

The Scent of Us: Part One (The Bond Dissolution Omegaverse, #1) by Eliana Lee. – 4 Stars. | The Scent of Us: Part Two (The Bond Dissolution Omegaverse, #2) by Eliana Lee. – 4 Stars.

And there we go, those are the last ten books I read for the year 2024. As you can see it was a mix of contemporary and a little bit of fantasy and science fiction sprinkled in. How did you finish off 2024? What books did you read? Have you read any that made my list? So, let’s chat!

A Slow-Going Reading Month | October Wrap Up

A Slow-Going Reading Month | October Wrap Up

Nov 3, 2024


It’s been a slow-going October. It’s honestly been a slow-going year. But I’m pretty happy with what I read this month. I read some fantastic reads and a few auto-buy authors have been added to my list.

I’ve been enjoying contemporary romances this year. I still read my paranormal and fantasy but contemporary is just so easy for me to read at the moment. From sports romances to MC ones, and then add in a darker romance or two that has been my October.

So let’s go. These are all the books I’ve read this October, and like always they are in no real order.

Close Knit (The Hastings #1) by Kels and Denise Stone – 4 Stars. | Blitz (Treasure State Wildcats, #2) by Devney Perry – 3.5 Stars. | Only With You (The Knights, #2) by E. Salvador. – 4 Stars. Review | Tempting Little Thief (Girls of Greyson, #1) by Meagan Brandy. – 4 Stars.

Reading A Little More | July Wrap Up

Reading A Little More | July Wrap Up

Aug 6, 2024

I have honestly been in such a slump this year, life is busy. But I had a pretty good reading month in July. I ended up reading 16 books this month, which is on the higher end for me this year. I also re-read quite a bit in July.

The books I read in July were a mix-match from a new MC series I started in June to some more Catherine Cowels. I think I’m on my 4th series of hers and loving it! Then some fantasy and why choose series that I’ve been reading over the past year.

So, let’s get into it. Here are all the books that I read in July and all of them were above 3.5 stars! As always these are in no real order.

The Bonds We Break (Iron Outlaws MC, #4) by Scarlett Cole – 3.5 Stars. | The Vows We Keep (Iron Outlaws MC #5) by Scarlett Cole – 3.5 Stars. | The Loves We Lost (Iron Outlaws MC, #6) by Scarlett Cole. – 4 Stars. | The Souls We Claim (Iron Outlaws MC, #7) by Scarlett Cole – 4 Stars.

Reckless Memories (Wrecked, #1) by Catherine Cowles – 4 Stars. | Perfect Wreckage (Wrecked #2) by Catherine Cowles – 4 Stars. | Wrecked Palace (Wrecked, #3) by Catherine Cowles – 4.5 Stars. | Dawn of Flames (Dragons of Ember Hollow, #3) by Tessa Hale – 4 Stars.

Plier (Ironside Academy, #1) by Jane Washington – 4 Stars. Reread. | Tourner (Ironside Academy, #2) by Jane Washington – 4 Stars. Reread. | Sauter. (Ironside Academy, #3) by Jane Washington – 4 Stars. Reread. | Relever (Ironside Academy, #4)by Jane Washington – 4 Stars.

And there we go, those are the books I read in July! What did you read? Have you read anything that I did? What are your plans for August? I haven’t had a great start to August, but I am hoping that I can get to a few more before I leave for a holiday at the end of the month. Let’s chat!

Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Vict Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Victoria Wilder’s Bourbon Boys series, and as soon as I heard she was writing a new series, around whiskey and women. Well, hell year. It took me a little bit to get into the book, but after a few chapters, I was hooked. 

Wyn is hiding, hiding from everyone, even when she is there. She is hiding behind so much, and damn, I don’t blame her. We don’t know everything from the start, but we start piecing things together, and my heart broke. And I was terrified for her. But she is a Crowne woman, and that means something. 

We’ve met Julian before, and while he intrigued me before, I am invested now. He is charming, secretive in the best way and will do anything at this point for Wyn. But he is also lost, and somehow he finds his way to Rumour and back into Wyn’s life. 

The romance is hot and steamy and everything that you want. The tension and chemistry in this one is high. Neither Wyn nor Julian wants to really give in or give up on one another, but a lot is standing in their way, honestly, mainly themselves. I just sat there giggling half the time because they are swoon-worthy. 

I would say this is the darkest Victoria Wilder book I’ve read, so double-check those trigger warnings before jumping in because there is a lot that happens. And I don’t think it’s going to die down any time soon because these Crowne women are badass, and I know things are only just getting started. 

Overall, Rumors & Whiskey is hot and sexual. The tension is dripping off the page, and then you are thrown into the terror and horrors of Rumour. You don’t know what is going to happen next, you don’t know who to trust, and there are so many more secrets that have yet to be revealed. I know I am ready for more. Are you?

Thank you to @atriabooksaus for an earc of Rumors & Whiskey 🥃. I’m in love.

March was a better reading month than February for March was a better reading month than February for me, and while I’m still stuck in my heated rivalry fanfiction era I managed to scrap out of it a little this month. 

I reread four books from the sweet omegaverse series and honestly had the best time. I also read two of my most anticipated reads of the year and had a blast. Sadly I did also have my first dnf of the year.

What did you read this March? Any standouts? What are you looking forward to reading in April? Let’s chat!
