Top Ten Tuesday

Books With Animals on The Cover

Books With Animals on The Cover

Apr 11, 2023

This week I’m sharing books with animals on the cover. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I liked this week’s Top Ten Tuesday a lot. It let me have a little break from thinking too hard and just sharing some pretty covers. I am a sucker for a good cover, and if it has an animal on it, I am drawn right in. Today I’m sharing with you a range of different books from fantasy to paranormal and a few others here and there. I also let myself go with fictional and mythological animals as well. 

So let’s get right into it. Here are some books I have liked with animals on the cover. And as always these are in no order. 

Wolf Kissed (Luna Marked #1) by Heather Renee | Psycho (Necessary Evils, #2) by Onley James. | Broken Bonds (The Bonds that Tie, #1) by J. Bree. | Sacrificed to the Dragon (Stonefire Dragons, #1) by Jessie Donovan. 

 

Dark Horse (A Demon’s Guide to the Afterlife #1) by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane. | The Dragon’s Bride (A Deal With a Demon, #1) by Katee Robert. | Muscles & Monsters (Leviathan Fitness, #1) by Ashley Bennett | Desperate Measures (Wicked Villains, #1) by Katee Robert.

The Vixen’s Lead (Kit Davenport, #1) by Tate James. | Lore Olympus: Volume One by Rachel Smythe.

And there we go. Those are some of the books that I have enjoyed with animals on the cover. Have you read any of these? Are you planning on reading any of them? What are the books that made it to your list? Let’s Chat! 

 

Indie Romance Books That You Should Read

Indie Romance Books That You Should Read

Apr 4, 2023

This week I’m sharing indie romance books that you should read. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

It’s all about indie books this week and you all know that I love those. 90% of what I read these days is independently published/self-published books. Not for any reason other than it’s where I can find what I am looking for. So let’s just say I am very excited about this week’s Top Ten Tuesday. There are still a lot of readers out there that don’t know where to start with indie books. So today I thought I would share the romance books that I think you should read. 

I am not going to lie, this post took me some time. I’ve read hundreds of indie romance books over the last few years and I could name way more than 10, so it did take me a while to dwindle it down. I tried to pick at least one book for nearly everyone.

So let’s get right into it. These are the indie romance books that I think you should read and hope that you enjoy. And like always these are in no order. Please check all trigger warnings before you read any of the books on this list. 

Unhinged (Necessary Evils, #1) by Onley James | The Wrong Bride (The Windsors, #1) by Catharina Maura. | A Little Too Late (Madigan Mountain, #1) by Sarina Bowen. | Brutal Prince (Brutal Birthright, #1) by Sophie Lark. 

The Longing of Lone Wolves (Fae Guardians, #1) by Lana Pecherczyk. | Broken Bonds (The Bonds that Tie, #1) by J. Bree. | The Never King (Vicious Lost Boys, #1) by Nikki St. Crowe. | A King so Cold (Royals, #1) by Ella Fields. 

Reason to Believe (Legacy, #1) by Rebecca Yarros. | Under Locke by Mariana Zapata.

And there we go. Those are only just some of the indie books that I have loved and think you should give a go. Have you read any of these? What did you think of them? What indie books made it to your list? Ley’s chat! 

Books for People Who Liked Author X

Books for People Who Liked Author X

Mar 28, 2023

This week I’m sharing books you might like if you like a particular author. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I am not going to lie. I really struggled with the topic this week. But thanks to some guidance from Ely I twisted the topic just a little. So instead of picking one author for all 10 books. I’ve decided to pick a few different authors to highlight instead of the one. This topic is basically if you like this author, then you may like these books. So let’s get into it. 

The authors I picked for this topic are; Elle Kennedy, Julia Quinn, Sarah J Mass and Ali Hazelwood. 

If you like Elle Kennedy’s sports romances then you might like The Year We Fell Down (The Ivy Years, #1) by Sarina Bowen. and Getting Lucky Number Seven. (Taking Shots, #1) by Cindi Madsen.

If you like Julia Quinn and historical fiction then you might like reading the Wicked and the Wallflower. (The Bareknuckle Bastards, #1.) by Sarah MacLean and The Duchess Deal (Girl Meets Duke, #1) by Tessa Dare.

If you like Sarah J. Maas then you might enjoy reading Broken Bonds (The Bonds that Tie, #1) by J. Bree and The Longing of Lone Wolves (Fae Guardians, #1) by Lana Pecherczyk. 

If you enjoy reading Ali Hazelwood then you might like Two Wrongs Make a Right (The Wilmot Sisters. #1) by Chloe Liese and Delilah Green Doesn’t Care (Bright Falls, #1) by Ashley Herring Blake.

And there we go. Those are the books that I would recommend if you like these authors. From contemporary romance to fantasy romance and more. I hope you pick up some of these. What authors and books made it to your list? Have you read any of the books on mine? Let’s chat!

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
…

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
