BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: LOVE, OFF THE RECORD

📖BOOK TITLE: LOVE,OFF THE RECORD

📖AUTHOR: SAMANTHA MARKUM

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#NinetyEighthBookOf2024 #2BooksToHundred 🎉🎉

My heart goes out to every YA romance author ♡. Now I can honestly say that enemies to lovers is not my best trope in a romance novel; the banter, the insults, and, let's not forget, the incessant bickering, but... OMG, Wyn and Three,😍😍 do we have a couple name for them yet 🤭🥰?

Wyn is trying to enjoy the traditional college experience while battling with her body image. Wyn loves her body, but sometimes it's just too much. Three ( I would have loved to read this story from his perspective.) He had a lot going on, and I felt it was not talked about enough in this story.

As much as I wanted to connect to this love story, I didn't quite connect to it, but I loved the whole backstory. Three and Wyn did so much work as grunts, and I love that for them, and let's not forget the beautiful friendship that was formed. I wish we could have a sequel to Wyn's and Three's love story.

📖RATINGS: 3 STARS ⭐⭐⭐

📖QUOTES:

○Dwelling on old hurts helps no one.

○I’m pretty sure that’s part of the traditional college experience is getting here and realizing the competition wasn’t all that steep in high school. but that doesn’t mean you aren’t smart or good at what you do. it just means college is a bigger challenge.

HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND BY KATHLEEN WHYMAN

📖 BOOK TITLE: HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND? 📖AUTHOR: KATHLEEN WHYMAN 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #154thBookof2024 I love this book, the humor! The drama! And the mystique surrounding Scott and his numerous problems. I can't believe Marie and his ex-wife married this guy. Scott is an a$$hole, and he deserves to be treated as such. Those poor innocent kids 😩. While humor was a big part of the novel, this book shines a light on serious topics such as infidelity, gaslighting, serial lying, and paternal irresponsibility towards children, just to say the least. I had so much fun laughing while reading this book and gained awareness of how lies and subtle gaslighting build up! What Scott did is unacceptable! And my heart goes out to all the things he did to the women he was with; what a gag🤮🤢. And yes, there is a love interest 🥰🥰🥰. 📖 RATINGS : 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

THE REUNION BY KAYLA OLSON

📖 BOOK TITLE: THE REUNION 📖AUTHOR: KAYLA OLSON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #155thBookof2024 I really wanted to love this; I mean, look at this stunning cover, but it is what it is, and I didn't love it 😩. It was like the author wanted to shove the love interest down my throat 😂😂. One thing this love story between Liv and Ransom did was make me cringe. I even lowkey hated the MMC's name 😩😑. The chemistry was not there, and it just felt as if Liv didn't have any other option than to date Ransom. Boy told you he wanted space; he didn't talk to you, and after so many years, he waltzed back into your life like he never left. The synopsis made it feel like Ransom was the reason Liv went into isolation 😑😑. Liv- I love your personality and your charisma, but your love story with Ransom was one I so detested 🙁. 📖 RATINGS : 2 STARS ⭐⭐ 📖🌸 READ IF YOU LIKE: 🌸 She has always loved him 🌸 Friends to strangers to lovers 🌸 Second chance romance 🌸 Hollywoo...

#16 NETGALLEY READ: SOMEONE LIKE YOU

📖 BOOK TITLE: SOMEONE LIKE YOU 📖AUTHOR: SANDY BARKER 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #134thBookOf2024 Thank you to Netgalley, Boldwood Books, and Sandy Barker for granting my request to read this e-ARC and provide my honest opinions. I would have rated this 3.5 stars, but I rounded it up to 4 stars. The whole transition from friends to lovers took me on a ride, and I really thought that both Raff's and Gaby's HEAs (Happily Ever After) would not happen due to some circumstances on both MCs part. "Someone Like You" is the fourth book in the "Ever After Agency Series," and I read this book as a standalone even without reading the rest in the series. Honestly, I feel that no one can be as dumb and oblivious as Raff. Like, seriously, dude, how can you not know when someone is flirting with you? The whole matchmaker bit got me excited (that's a dream job). Overall, I really enjoyed this story, even if I thought it was way too long and dragging ...
