Posted by angelreads TBR 9 Comments

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

There are so many books that I want to read. So many. But today I’m sharing the books that I hope to get to in the next few months. We are currently in summer here in Australia and the weather is very strange here in Melbourne. I do like to read more summery reads this time of year, but I’m a mood reader and things change all the time. 

Anyway, let’s get into it. There is a mix of new releases, books that have been on my tbr for a while and books that have caught my eye recently. There are also some new kinda reads for me and I’m excited. As always these are in no order. 

Electric Idol (Dark Olympus #2) by Katee Robert | Twisted Games (Twisted #2) by Ana Huang | Angels’ Blood (Guild Hunter #1) by Nalini Singh | The Sweetest Oblivion (Made #1) by Danielle Lori.

Beastars, Vol. 1 (BEASTARS #1) by Paru Itagaki | The Way of the Househusband, Vol. 1 (極主夫道 / Gokushufudō #1) by Kousuke Oono, Sheldon Drzka |  Portrait of a Scotsman (A League of Extraordinary Women #3) by Evie Dunmore | Iron Widow (Iron Widow #1) by Xiran Jay Zhao.

Some of these books you might have seen before, some are new to the list. Because I am a mood reader, I love borrowing a whole heap and then I have something to read for every mood. Anyway, let’s get into it, as always these are in no order. 

The Complete Kit Davenport Series (Kit Davenport #1-6.5) by Tate James | Famine (The Four Horsemen #3) by Laura Thalassa. | Ivan (Underworld #1) by Sophie Lark | Snow (Underworld #2) by Sophie Lark.

Demon Pack (Demon Pack #1) by Jaymin Eve and Everly Frost | Noc City (Noc City #1) by Penn Cassidy. | Deserted (Shadow Beast Shifters #4) by Jaymin Eve | The Stopover (The Miles High Club #1) by T.L. Swan.

Collided (Dirty Air #2) by Lauren Asher | Queen Takes Triune (Their Vampire Queen #6) by Joely Sue Burkhart. | The Affair (The Evolution of Sin Trilogy #1) by Giana Darling | The Sweetest Oblivion (Made #1) by Danielle Lori.

And there we go. Those are the books that I currently have out with kindle unlimited. Have you read any of these? What did you think of them? What should I read next? Let’s Chat! 

New-To-Me Authors I Discovered In 2021

New-To-Me Authors I Discovered In 2021

Posted by angelreads Discussions No Comments

I love discovering new-to-me authors and 2021 was the year for it. I read so many new authors this year and it was just fantastic. There were a lot of reasons why I read so many new-to-me authors this year, but mainly TikTok was the drive. 

Some of these authors I’ve only read one book and some I’ve read nearly their whole backlist. I have this bad habit that if a series is completed I will most likely finish it in a few days/weeks depending on the series. Espeically if it’s on Kindle Unlimited. As most of the year has gone by, pretty much all of these authors write romance. but I love it. 

Anyway, let’s get right into it. Here are some of the authors that I discovered in 2021 that were new to me. As always these are in no order. 

Ali Hazelwood: I just finished The Love Hypothesis recently and adored it, so I’m so ready to read more from Ali Hazelwood. I can’t keep this one in-store at all, I sold out the weekend I got it in. 

Kathryn Moon: I think Kathryn Moon has become one of my favourite authors and I cannot wait till I can read more from her. Lola and the Millionaires is one of my favourite books that I have read this year and I seriously want more people to read them.

Dana Isaly: Another author that I discovered because of Tiktok, that I have come to really enjoy. Very steamy, dark and a little taboo. Dana’s books are great to just read and escape. 

Sophie Lark: I just started to read Sophie Lark recently, but I have enjoyed each book I’ve read so far. I’ve read all the Brutal Birthright series, as well as the first two in the Kingmakers series. I’m really excited to keep on reading more. 

Candace Robinson and Amber R. Duell: I discovered this duo via Ely and let me tell you I love their Faries of Oz series so much. If you like fae as well as the Wizard of Oz, pick this series up. 

Scarlett St. Clair: I have read a few books now from Scarlett St. Clair and I have enjoyed them all. I know they are not for everyone, but if you like darker romances with vampires then her newest release is for you! 

R.M. Virtues: This author has been on my list for a little while now but finally got to reading Drag Me Up, and I really enjoyed it a lot. So I am really looking forward to reading more and more from them. 

Tate James: I went through 2 series of Tates this year and I plan to read more next year. I love the grittiness of her romances. They aren’t clean, they are sharp and tangles and it’s great. 

And there we go, those are some of the new-to-me authors that I read in 2021. Have you read any of these authors? What did you think? Are you planning too? Let’s chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
