I Went A Little Wild This Month | October Book Haul

Nov 2, 2020

I couldn’t stop myself this month. I bought a mix of books from work and from other bloggers that were selling. There is also got a mix of books this month from romance and paranormal to young adult and fantasy. There are books on this that I have already read, however, I wanted physical copies of it. Anway, like always these are in no order.

Psy-Changeling 6, 8, 9, 11 and Wild Invitation by Nalini Singh: I’ve been slowly buying my way through this series. And I’ve now I have up to book 11. I’m hoping to get the rest by the end of the year, but let’s see.

Crash into You (Loving on the Edge #1) by Roni Loren: I don’t know too much about this one, but it was on sale and it sounded like something that I might enjoy reading. I’ve read a few books from Roni Loren before and really enjoyed them a lot. So I’m hoping I feel the same.

The Princess Plan (A Royal Wedding #1) by Julia London: I’m always up for new historical romances and this one sounds interesting. I haven’t read too many that have a focus on the royal family and I’m excited.

Solo by Kwame Alexander with Mary Rand Hess: I bought Swing last month and when I saw that this one was on sale I hopped on it. I’m excited to pick these books ups soon that is for sure.

Get a Life, Chloe Brown (The Brown Sisters #1) by Talia Hibbert: I’ve been wanting to get this one for months and I finally picked it up from work. I’m hoping to get to this one in November sometime. I have heard nothing but things about this one and the whole series. And I have a feeling I will want to rest once I’m done reading it.

Slayer (Slayer #1) by Kiersten White: This is another one that I’ve been wanting to read for ages, but just never picked up. And then I saw it on sale and couldn’t stop myself. I’m excited to read this one for sure. I’m ready for a wild ride.

Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson: This is one I’ve been unsure about for a little while. And I finally took the plunge and picked a copy up. I was able to get the gorgeous hardcover for such a good price. I’m so excited about it even more now.

Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstrom: This has been on my tbr for years now and when I saw that it was up for sale I got it. I’m always looking for new books that feature disability. And this one caught my eye right away. I’ve also heard some good things about it. I’ve read another book by Eric Lindstrom and enjoyed it, so I am looking forward to this.

A Scot in the Dark (Scandal & Scoundrel #2) by Sarah MacLean: I’ve been loving Sarah MacLean and I couldn’t help myself to pick up another one of her books. I’m always excited about a new to be series by an author that I love.

Kulti by Mariana Zapata: A friend had a whole heap of Mariana Zapata’s books for sale and I’ve been really enjoying them. This is one of the ones that I haven’t read and I’m excited to pick it up.

Under Locke by Mariana Zapata: This is my favourite Mariana Zapata that I’ve read so far and I’m so happy that I know have a physical copy of it. You can check out my review now.

Racing the Sun by Karina Halle: I hadn’t really hard about this one before, but it sounds like something that I will really enjoy reading. I haven’t read anything from Karina Halle either, but I’ve heard some good things.

The Wall of Winnipeg and Me by Mariana Zapata: This is another one that I have read and excited that I now have a physical copy.

Rhythm, Chord & Malykhin by Mariana Zapata: I hadn’t heard about this one before, but now I’m intrigued by it and can’t wait to read it. This is also one of her smaller novels which I’m so excited about. Because damn she goes wild and writes massive romances.

And that it is for today’s post. Those are the books that I went wild with this October. Have you read anything on this list? Are you planning to? What did you get last month? Let’s chat!

A Slow Start But Finished Off Great | October Wrap Up

Nov 1, 2020

The start of October was a little slow for me. I just wasn’t in the mood for reading. I still hadn’t started work at that point and I think I was just a little down. But towards the ending the month I got back into my groove and felt like reading more and more. And guess what? After 3 months I’m finally back at work. I started back this week and gosh it feels amazing to be back selling books and just being there has been fantastic.

I read 16 books this month with all of them being romance. But I did read a range of different romances with some new genres for me as well. I also had a few re-reads this month to get me back into the reading mood. Anyway like always these are in no order.

Rifts & Refrains (Hush Note #2) by Devney Perry: It’s a fantastic second chance romance that hit all the spots. Quinn and Graham were adorable and sexy and fit together so well. I also adored the bond that Quinn and Colin built and it just made everything better. Full Review.

Muses & Melodies (Hush Note #3) by Rebecca Yarros: This faking dating romance is hard-hitting and emotional at times, but it’s also beautiful. It explores overcoming, finding and believing in yourself and also that sometimes it’s okay to get a little help. Nixon and Zoe were perfect for one another. They balanced each other, they pushed each other. But they also loved one another. Full Review.

Gunner (The Devil’s Angels MC #1) by Lola Wright: This one wasn’t for me. I wasn’t able to connect with the characters or the story. Everything just felt very clique and nothing really stood out of me.

The Duke and I (Bridgertons #1) by Julia Quinn: I adored this, I loved this and it’s one of my favourite books I’ve read this year. Ely and I will be doing a discussion soon and you can see how much we both loved it. I’m so excited to read the rest of the series.

Rookie Move (Brooklyn Bruisers #1) by Sarina Bowen: This was a re-read for me and gosh I loved it so much. I adore Georgia Worthington and Leo Trevi. They are fabulous together and I love this second chance romance so much.

Kiwi (The Kings of Retribution MC, Louisiana Chapter #4) by Crystal Daniels and Sandy Alvarez: I was really looking forward to this one. This romance has been brewing for a while now and I really did enjoy seeing this two fall in love. There were things that I didn’t love about this book, but overall it was an enjoyable MC read.

Ice Planet Barbarians #1 – #3.5 by Ruby Dixon: I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading this series. It was strange, to say the least, but I kept on reading them. And I will keep on reading them. Sci-fi isn’t really my thing, and aliens are even more out of my comfort zone. Especially blue ones. But they are fun to read.

(KGI #1-2) by Maya Banks: These were my second re-read for October. I just felt like a good action read and I knew that these would give me that. I like this suspense romance series a lot. The highs and lows make reading this series interesting and keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. If that is something you are wanting, check this series out.

Addictive (Houston Defiance MC #2) by K.E. Osborn: I read the first book in this series and the series that precedes it a little while ago and enjoyed what I read. I was a little disappointed with the start of this one, but as the book went on I enjoyed it even more.

His Disinclined Bride (Seasons of Change #7) by Jennie Goutet: This is a book that surprised me in October. I wasn’t expecting to like this one as much as I did, but I had a really good time reading it. The romance was slow and adorable, I love the characters. And I want to look into more books by this author. You can check out my full review now.

Lord of London Town (Adley Firm #1) by Tillie Cole: I started reading Tillie Cole this year and have many ups and downs. At first, I wasn’t liking this one, it’s dark. Very dark. And even though I read on the darker side sometimes, this was intense. But as the novel went on, I fell into the world and ended up enjoying what I was reading. I’m intrigued to see where this story goes that is for sure.

And that is it, those are the books that I read this October! What books did you read? Have you read anything that I did? Let’s Chat!

Romance Books That I Want To Read

Oct 21, 2020

I’ve been reading more and more romance over the past year. And by reading more romance I’ve been adding more books to my tbr. So today I thought I would share some of the romance books that I want to read soon. I already own a few of these books already but I can’t wait to get and read them all.

I also have a mix of backlist titles, new releases and books coming out soon. There are so many romances book out there and I can’t keep up. But these are the ones that I can’t wait to read soon. Let’s get into it like always these are in no order.

To Love and to Loathe by Martha Waters: This one just sounds fantastic. I’ve heard some really great things about Martha Waters. And this one grabbed my interest as soon as I read the synopsis. Rom-coms aren’t always my thing but this sounds like it’s going to be fantastic.

Mating the Huntress (Monsters and Mates #1) by Talia Hibbert: I don’t know too much about this one but it sounds fantastic. I have been reading more and more paranormal/urban fantasy romance lately. And this sounds perfect.

The Widow of Rose House by Diana Biller: This is one that I’ve heard some really good things about and I’m very intrigued by it. I normally don’t read many historical set during this time so I am looking forward to it.

Get a Life, Chloe Brown (The Brown Sisters #1) by Talia Hibbert: I finally have my copy of this one and I’m so excited to pick it up. I’ve been wanting to read this for ages. I have been limited in the books that I can buy the last few months. However, now I have it and I’m so excited.

The Bromance Book Club (Bromance Book Club #1) by Lyssa Kay Adams: I’ve been wanting to read this one for so long now, but the publisher is having a hard time getting this one here. I’m hoping that maybe when I get back to work my copy will have arrived.

A Rogue of One’s Own (A League of Extraordinary Women #2) by Evie Dunmore: I adored the first book and I can’t wait to read this one. I got my copy as soon as I could and hopefully, I can get to it next month! I’ve already had fantastic things about it and that just makes me even more excited to pick it up.

Hostage to Pleasure (Psy-Changeling #5) by Nalini Singh: This is the book that I’m currently up to in the series and I can’t wait to read it. I’m adoring this series – you can check out my series review so far to see how much. I’m so excited to read more about Dorian.

Birthday Shot by Rilzy Adams: This one caught my eye a couple of months ago and I still haven’t got to it. This one sounds like a great read and I hope that I can get to it soon.

The Viscount Who Loved Me (Bridgertons #2) by Julia Quinn: After finishing the first book in this series, I knew that I wanted to read the whole series. So there is no doubt that I’ll be reading this whole series soon.

And that is it for today’s post! What are some of the romance books that are on your tbr that you want to read soon? Do we share any that is the same? Let’s Chat!
